Thats cool man. I am.not a trophy hunter by any means I have exactly 1 buck on the wall and I am in no hurry to have any join it. The deer all mean something to me wether its the encounter was different or the people I went out with that day or just the spot i was sitting in means something I can honestly say I can walk to every hit and recovery spot of every deer I have ever shot within 100 yards or less (i have shot 27 deer in 12 years). I understand the thrill of the big bucks and give guys who let the little ones grow credit and am thankful I still get to make my own decision. I think Fred Bear said that (didn't look up exact quote) if you measure your success in inches you should have been a yardstick maker. Glad to see that you knew that's not what you wanted it to be about and made a choice to get back to the basics. I hope you lay the hammer down on a giant in a few weeks.

I am 29 and am a machinist and welder by trade. Went to school for both at alfred state. Welded for a few years and wuickly learned it sucked i the aummer so foubd a new job as a machinist ar dresser rand. I run everything frim manual mills to 5 axis pallet changers and am currently running a 5 axis planer mill with a 60 foot long by 12 foot wife table with capabilities of machining 19 feet in height too. I will say in machining dont go production route that could get boring as hell but if you find somewhere that has multiple digfetebt machines you can run anf learn you should never be bored. Ps. Phones autocorrect apparently sucks lmao Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Apparently you have never shot one and id love to see you cock one in a hang on without the cranks and we are talking Ny legal xbows the rest are invalid arguments The fact that you hunt with a compound makes me laugh at the fact your arguing against xbows. Compounds are 100 times more hunter friendly than a xbow and id put money on many of the avid archers in this group out shooting xbows in a off hand shootout anyday. Sure rests make it easier but that's not what we are talking about I can make any weapon accurate if I spend enough time and money on the location and stand design....what a joke Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

I'm pro xbow but that being said xbow has more downfalls than a compound. 1) most treestands don't have enough space to reload in the stand 2) heavy heavy heavy try and hold it up for 30 seconds without a rest 3) not very maneuverable the limbs sticking out make it hard to shoot in tight spaces (like behind your stand or around tree) 4) loud bet you don't get more than 1 shot at a deer 5)have to carry extra equipment to unload 6) potentially dangerous if not aware of hand location (thumb location) So sure you don't have to draw on a deer but realisticly they are harder to hunt with (easier to kill with yes) than a vert bow. I wish they would open it up all bow season with required archery course and even have actual range time at the course to show people (who could think they are a long range weapon) there limitations. They are not some magical archery equipment but more of another tool in the safe. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
