I haven't been shooting my bow like years past . Gotten pretty old . Have had some pain in my left shoulder so I dropped the poundage down to 50 pound pull . Been shooting 11 yards in the basement and need to practice outside at at least 20 - 25 yards . If I can't get the poundage up to at least 55# then I will have to switch to cut on contact broadheads . Also , the forecast in Geneseo on opening day is some rain . Unless that changes , I will wait until Saturday to go bow hunting . I screwed up a few years ago when I was bow hunting in a light rain and don't want to repeat that . Good luck hunting to you all !

I have seen pictures of black whitetail deer. Apparently there are all kinds of color variations out there.

I went on EBAY and purchased 60 clear plastic luggage tags for a total of $15.25 . They are better than using plastic baggies . I will be giving them to my sons , grandson , friends , etc . https://www.ebay.com/itm/186332376563?_skw=luggage+tags&itmmeta=01J8T9AFJC0WFNEDASCH2Z26XC&hash=item2b62466df3:g:WKAAAOSwvC1l6WeN&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKkXvq3QezS43mxp8jAv61vbC94BLsN8x4cSZ0C7TFiCZj3WSG626kaHPhnxqcwcxxTOUKUXKZZ3iwp2z6Ap4lEikoZpltW5YBu42nQ7I%2FjEFI024CbpGA7zrKjKRYxgIpPo2q23yM6bjC8iCtYNXRkSHDqc2fTjESUenM26iMftJ9qb75CfE1NmrKnP3hy%2F0Rdb2F5KYU2LOOyMf3%2BiEoEPDaAWwecPvmjdEXGvcmWaTBnIpDsamgIt%2Bh5mhGIPN2TMCDF3EeYpbjEC0BYWiEOyNEiGRLEBe9weISZJtzsdmA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6b5qcnGZA

Looks like thermometer may cooperate for opening day. Hopefully, precipitation will do the same. Good luck to those heading out. May your arrows fly true.

My Brother in law went from 60lbs to 54lbs said it made a world of difference. May do that for next year but if xbow goes full inclusion might put the compound down.

As I remember, he was a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment. He also knew his muzzle loaders. Nice to hear from you, also.

I'm still shooting my Winchester # 94 30-30 I bought 50 years ago !

Putting aside my .270 for the first time and will be using this golden oldie this season. Bought it last summer as you see it along with 24 rounds of ammo for a whopping $100 from an older gentleman who did not want it anymore. Don't think I ever had a greater deal in my life. Gave the man what he asked for it. It's the Savage model 99f in .300 Savage. Ammo is not easy to find anymore but was lucky enough to find 3 boxes this past Spring so it's going hunting with me this season. Shoots minute of deer all day long and it's an absolute delight to carry. Feels way better in your hands than any bolt action I ever handled. Hopefully it gets to bring something down this season.

Ran off with the UPS driver?

Won't be much longer before they are gone. They have been on their annual feeding frenzy for the last two weeks. Probably another two weeks and they will gone for another year.
