I love the wild looking head carving in the background! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

When you find an elite you like let me know when you get it so I can set my calendar when I'll be able to buy it off ya You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Voted, can't wait to get more spam lol. Hope she wins You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Oh I do not disagree one bit! Safety should always be number 1 priority! But in the context of the picture nothing will happen, but if the gun were loaded (seems unlikely imho) then she would be in for a world of hurt and also anyone potentially down range of that barrel too! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Yes I totally agree. Definitely should shoot as many as you can within your budget. You should shoot both the high end and the lower end of your budget and everything in between. You may just be surprised. Also I love my Elite! It's a 2012 Hunter and I'll likely not get a new bow for a very long time. Part of the reason why I am afraid to shoot new ones is I can only imagine how far bows have come in even a short 6 years since mine was made. Any better than what I have and it may just be cheating at that point You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Thanks! Lets hope the second time gives a more long term solution. 3 years isn't nearly enough! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

First off if you are between matthews and bear keep the bear and then eventually get an ELITE. They are branded such because they truly are Elite and the best ever. I'll be an Elitist for Life! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Nah. Nothing will happen other than the gun maybe going *click* there's no mag attached and one could deduce the gun is unloaded. However if she were to do that with a loaded gun, well she would be in for one hell of a day You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Update: First shot with the .458. I would say recoil is somewhere around a 20 gauge, not nearly as bad as lots of people try to make it out to be. Additionally once I got my scope dialed in it's shooting roughly 1/2 moa groups at 100 yards. That's 1 inch edge to edge. Or 1/2 inch center to center given each round is nearly a half inch across. Needless to say I am quite pleased. Now just need to do some custom work on my mags so they don't jam my bullets and we shall be ready to rock! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Nice bear! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Around 20 below with the windchill. I am reminded any time the temps get below 60 degrees and my frostbitten hands start cracking and bleeding again. This was probably 10+ years ago now. Looks like I'll be suffering my misdeeds for the rest of my life. Serves me right for wearing only crappy cotton gloves when it was so cold outside. You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Technically speaking if Leupold and Vortex have the same warranty then it would be true that nobody has a better one as the best they could ever do would be tie You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

I usually have some "harassment" from the groundskeepers that are mowing the meadows of the vast plot of land I hunt, but alas not really harassment more just me being cranky I picked the wrong stand to hunt. Usually I'll just hunt either the higher or lower stand depending on what part of the property they are mowing that morning. The deer all seem pretty used to the noise and people so doesn't really hurt me much at all. Though I have had one scare away a massive buck I was about to shoot when they drove down the driveway. Not their fault as they had no idea I was even there but I was still pretty cranky at my misfortune. Oh well he just grew even bigger for the next year and never even had a clue I was there so one day I'll get em! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

That is awesome! Should have kept it as a pet You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

That's awesome! You ever get to pet it? You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

People eat those things? I thought you are just supposed to kick them as hard as you can and then watch the dust fly all over You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Happy Birthday Larry Ya Old Bastard! May your arrows always fly true and bag a monster this season! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

You mean Mario his criminal father You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

This is true. But a full body is close to 100k. Damn we need more pictures Rhyno. Deer Season can't come soon enough! You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

This is true You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Was your neighbor GrowaLot? You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

At this point its either a ring or an elephant and loneliness. Looks like an elephant will have to wait You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Blasphemy! And I'm sure she would, but would likely be a bit upset both that I had just dropped over 100k on a hunt assuming full body or over 50-70k for a shoulder mount. And that it was an elephant You Can't Beat My Meat!!!

Well the girlfriend and future doesn't really want me to shoot an elephant so even if I had the money may be a hard sell to get it in the house after the fact let alone if she'd ever talk to me again lol You Can't Beat My Meat!!!
