it has AC, AM/FM radio, and cruise. nothing else. no power anything either. it's almost brand new! has around 40,000k miles on it right now. it was around 25k miles when i bought it a year or so ago. i need it to work like a truck and get me from point A to B. lol

looks pretty damn good for the pictures. when doing euros (the extent of my taxidermy skills if that) i use Minwax Wood stain provincial. whatever you used looks good.

they were onto something but since other bow mfg and the industry have made different innovations to reduce that. while not the parallel split string cam system Prime as, other cam systems have gotten better. you also have the flexible, adjustable cable guards, better matched split limbs, etc. draw cycle and shot have left them behind so their cam system still needs work. honestly i think their bigger leap several years ago was making stronger and stronger risers when every one else was trying to whittle them down into a wet noodle, causing bow torque and all kinds of quirks. I mean they picked a damn Jeep off the ground with their riser! rest of the industry is now realizing the screw up and now you see them all with split or caged risers and trying to make them stiffer. Prime bows had a little felt hand shock that people trashed them for. Fast forward to now with everybody making stiffer and stronger bows that just include complete dampening systems as a standard feature, something Prime didn't really do.

When I was in high school I used to shovel ripe corn silage in my hunting closes. Slow enough to not sweat a lot. It was in a crib feeder wagon and you had to knock it down every so often for the cows to get to it. Walked right through cow sh*t to and from. Bow stand setup along a pasture. Deer got nervous but didnt run away sometimes if winded. Old matriarch doe would pull the deer off the field still and keep plenty of distance if I got winded. I've learned over the years that older bucks or doe seem to be less tolerant. Some deer definitely have different demeanor than others too. No cover scent will keep a deer from smelling you a hunter. I just hunt with that in mind. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

sad story... nice guy. some jerk hijacked his name to steal peoples identity. now he's sitting around by himself with loads of money he's willing to share, but nobody will take it.

you can. i used to use Bing Maps birdseye view to show where transitions or edges of hardwoods, conifers, wetlands, etc. google maps not as good but still better than nothing. OnX is nice. I have that now from the QDMA.

that's a different take... i'd even go so far to agree when it comes to doe family groups that get less pressure. bucks i'm not so sure i'd agree with, despite it's hard to quantify any results. I've always felt i've had better luck keep them away from where i want less pressure on older bucks. seems they don't mind it while in velvet but once hard antler happens they get finicky with checked cameras. I tend to place them with a physical barrier so they can't get their sniffer right too them, put them up higher out of site and mind, or use field scan mode way off the beaten path (staging areas, open areas with scrapes, or fields typically). i never really use video mode but know of others that had bucks check out a cam off the side of a trail heading toward their stand. both bucks and doe acted bothered, pulled a 180, and headed back the way they came.

tuning. the days of shimming cams, paper tuning oddities with nock travel, cam lean at rest versus full draw... all that will be dead. big efficiency gains happening there, like speed of bow that's tuned vs out of tune. I haven't had any Bowtech bows in over a decade, but their new innovations in bows like the Reckoning are pretty cool.

cabin layout is same if you know the plane. however, every airline is different. Southwest has first come first choice seating but pay to board sooner. allegiant it's randomly generated unless you pay to pick your seat. others are board and pay based on section, which sounds like United but i don't remember. some don't give you much more than peanuts and a drink. others give you stuff based on ticket class. Delta gives you free ear buds and you can score through media to watch or listen too for no additional cost. i've even swapped assigned seats with people during boarding once most people are settled. if turbulence bothers you do what you must to sit in the front 1/3 of the plane verse the very back. if it doesn't and there's a cute attendant then sit in the last row. all subjective as to what's preferred over another.

if someone is shooting old faithful bow that's 10 or so years old, there's a chance this bow is hands down better. even more so a great bow for someone just getting into archery or bowhunting. i don't need it and would rather it go to someone who could use it otherwise i'd take it off bill's hands. someone needs to pick this thing up!

happy birthday

almost forgot.... congrats but pictures of a new bow in a new truck at some point or it never happened!

they'll be the ones wrapped in Lost camo. Those spoke to him more than the others.

not long ago i put 12 bags of soybeans in the trunk of my wife's new turbo Jetta. if i did that to this i just wouldn't feel right. lol good luck with the sale.
-
...it spoke to you? what'd it say? ...."Biz is watching"? Seems like a heavy sucker but should be nice shooting. short bows now are just awkward. especially must be at a longer drawlength like yours.
-
looks great! some of my biggest deer i've taken happened letting worries and pressures of filling a tag fade away, let enjoyment take over and experience subconsciously do it's thing. now that you have your wall hanger, pressures off and you'll be dropping them left and right.
