  1. Good luck Zeek. Looking forward to getting updates and enjoying an elk burger when you get back and settled.
  2. From Mansfield you'll be heading through Wellsboro I hope? My wife and I were just there two weekends ago, celebrating our 30th anniversary. We enjoy it there quite a bit. Have fun!
  3. Amazing things going on in this picture. I have questions…….
  4. Hey old timer, you're probably in bed by now but hopefully you had a great day. Happy Birthday!
  5. As noted in my OP, I use Wunderground. It is the same as Weather Underground and I was looking for another option.
  6. The wind at home isn't always the same as 90 minutes east of here. Also, the app tells me (and others that use them) what it could be out as far as ten days making planning a little easier. If a guy hunts close to home or even in their own backyard, your system is ok for the present-not so much for the future.
  7. I added (no thanks to you lugnuts!) Windy.com to my quiver.....so far I like it.
  8. I’ve got service but am not heading out. Good luck MPP
  9. Looks like a good aiming point in that second picture.
  10. As I've mentioned before I'm three weeks into some physical therapy for a couple problems with my left shoulder. The PT seems to be helping somewhat but nowhere near what I should be able to do. Oh I'm shooting 10-12 arrows at a crack each day but the terribly unorthodox way I draw puts OTHER pressure on my right shoulder. One thing I never thought of crossed my mind this morning; what if I see an opportunity for a shot and draw the bow but for one reason or another the shot never materializes, can I let the bow down? I think I could be in trouble........ BTW, the fingers on my right hand were numb also. Carpal tunnel probably but I was cold today, toes & hands. My shake down cruise was painful...... I'm drawing 53lbs and should really crank it back 1/2 to 3/4 of a turn on the Allen bolts. I just might.
  11. Lol, lots of truth to that response. Like skillet said, I hold my hand over the lens of my handheld light to limit the light when I need/want to. Headlamps are great for certain needs but rarely do I use one when going in or out of the woods. If I’m gutting or dragging, of course I’d rather use a headlamp but usury it’s just a handheld.
  12. Guys & gals, I've been using and fairly happy with Wunderground weather app for a bunch of years but the wind direction indicator doesn't work as well as I'd like. What FREE weather/wind app are you using? Thanks
  13. I trust you’ll be the only one. It’s hard enough to get a crack at one while on stand. Walking around in the dark is a completely different deal. Oh sure, there’ll be others to chime in with a similar tale but really, BFD if you DO get a crack at one, on the ground, in the dark with a bow. Chances of making a killing shot are slim, at best. This isn’t the 60’s and 70’s with guys and their stick bows shooting instinctively.
  14. I’d love to see a show of hands of guys (or gals of course) that have had a sighting of a coyote while walking that was within bow range but just didn’t have an arrow nocked. I’ll hang up and wait.
  15. You just do it as quietly as possible and don’t worry one bit. This isn’t life or death for us.
  16. Some go in and come out (in the dark) nocked. CRAZY TOWN.
  17. Although this poor guy had an arrow fall out of his quiver I know if at least one guy on here that walks around both in daylight and darkness with a nocked broadhead tipped arrow. An extremely dangerous practice……..
  18. I drove by a couple time a few weeks ago and it looked closed. I thought Roy’s (the old owner) son was going to take it over but I could easily be mistaken. Roy was a good egg…..
