2 more years till my nephew can do it. ill be taking him to pa this year to rifle hunt, hes just not ready with the bow yet! good luck to all of those who are.

Not so true if you hunt some of the places i have stands deep off a hill under pine trees. Most of the time yes though.

I was looking for a midsize and got a f-150 cheaper. 19 mpg and i drive with a lead foot.

No i shoot the majority of my does the first 2 weeks now, the same old stands for the colder weather don't work during the warmer weather for me but since i moved them i see tons of deer when its 70 degrees outside.

Small doe just snuck behind at 40, no clue where she went.

Squirrel party, I like this no sun no wind thing going on right now.

It’s not a law, and I’ve told them to call the police down to prove it. They sold it to me and didn’t.

May he chase nothing but big bucks up above and RIP.

howdy

Bow or gun? Gun i do, bow i don't. Idk why but its just what i do!

The reason i think they are under spined is the box i have states 300 spine for a 30 inch arrow out of a 70lb "soft" cam bow.

Nap sling blades for me, they swivel around ribs and Devistate the vitals, I’ve confirmed this after shooting 5 deer with them.

2 deer under me can’t get down!

9 squirrels within 50 yards lol

Not to far off, I try to hit opposite shoulder on my shots with most angles.

4 day weekends all of November!

Lets say for instance it passes, people up north get xbows and become proficient (places that are hard to get doe tags and people that wouldn't hunt with a compound). They then go out and shoot 2 does with there "archery" tags. Now the gun hunters are pissed off because they have 0 chance at a doe tag. Just a hypothetical scenario that folks could run into.

I agree with you, I don't think cross bow is a piece of archery equipment, plus when you throw a hand crank on one and now people are not even pulling a string back at all. Personally don't care about more hunters in the woods, my wife wants one to hunt those two weeks. I guess my only real gripe about them is when they are called "archery" equipment. And that is nothing against anyone who does not have the time to practice or is disabled, trust me i understand having 2 kids.

Deer move all the time, you just gotta get closer to them. I shot my doe in a t-shirt Monday. Cams show movement 7-9 am 12-1pm and 5pm-dark for me.

For reference i did use the decimator 350s this year for practice and still use them as back up. i shoot an Elite energy 32 27.5 dl 65 lb with 27.75 inch arrows. I have never had these arrows fly sloppy. In my opinion you need a 300 spine arrow, its better to be a touch stiff than the other way around. Also consider that these are .006 straightness arrows and your using them at full length. I shorten them a lot and they perform well. I am also budget minded in archery, you can find some good used arrows on archery talk or if you want new id recommend some Black eagles in .003 or .001 straightness for that length. There prices are pretty good.

If she fell over that fast i'm betting an major artery or vein. Sometimes better to be lucky than good!

Get the heavy duty ones and you can reuse!

I used body bags when I had a suv, hack saw off feet first.

regardless of your percentage, keep improving on what you did wrong last time and it will go up! I was more confident that ever this year and still jacked up a shot. Everyone messes up a shot as some point and as long as you give that animal everything you have to find it your fine by me. Nothing is wasted in nature.

i HATE latter stands for bow, i smacked a cam off one before trying to shoot a doe. i now have a hang on just above and to the side of my ladder stands so i have a double set in each spot and i do have to buy ladder sticks.
