I am just looking at the big stuff, limbs, cams, string, etc...The reviews and price seem a bit to much to be real. I have the sight, rest, quiver, putting a new string stop isn't an extreme amount, just don't want the thing exploding in my face. Seeing this is the only hunting site I am a member of, I figured I would ask. As for the CL items, a leather jacket my g/f got me last X-Mas, and never fit. Too small. A Jackson guitar with some accesories. Sorry no hunting gear.

I have some items on CL for sale, and if they sell, I am thinking about picking up this bow; http://www.amazon.com/Wizard-Archery-Lbs-Compound-Bow/dp/B00FATX878/ref=sr_1_3?s=hunting-fishing&ie=UTF8&qid=1413332632&sr=1-3&keywords=compound+bow Anyone know much about the company. Like the reviews say, not much info. I know that should be a red flag, but I also know that many a company gives quality products and it's hard to find real data on the product.

Figured I would add a pic. This is me and my current set up. PSE Thunder-flite Express, Tru-Glo sights, WB rest, and CX Wolverine Hunter arrows. I have had the quiver for a long, very long time, but, it still works, so I am not swapping it out yet. My broadheads are also old, WASP XXL 4 blade 125's. Never opened the pack till the other day. Still razor sharp and shooting well. Shooting with fingers. It just seems to be better for me. The furball is Miko, our Siberian Husky. She's a handful! She's a pure bred, and she has the "Alpha" personality for sure! She just could not let me have a picture taken without her in it.

Two hunters were dragging their dead deer back to their car. Another hunter approached pulling his along too. He says; "Hey, I don't want to tell you how to do something ... but I can tell you that it's much easier if you drag the deer in the other direction. Then the antlers won't dig into the ground." After the third hunter left, the two decided to try it. A little while later one hunter said to the other, "You know, that guy was right. This is a lot easier!" "Yeah, but we're getting farther from the truck," the other added

I agree. The beer is a must have! I would use a sleeping pad in the area from the pics, but, I have a bad hip and back, and nerve damage in my neck and shoulder, and my buddy has a really bad back from a fall on Gore Mtn.. So those cots make sleeping a lot nicer. I sleep better on my cot then the matress on my bed at home. With injuries and age come pain you didn't think you would have. It sucks to wake up at 3 AM in severe pain. So, I like my cot and my big old air matress when we use drive up camp grounds. I do have a set up for hiking with just a small pup tent. I just don't use it much anymore. Here's a pic of this spot 4 years ago, it's the backside. We set up, and because of the leaves we didn't realize we were sleeping on an old logging road. I could barely walk for a month after this trip. So yeah, I got me a bigger tent and a cot. LOL

Got ya. Kind of a Bed & Breakfast, but dinner included, and for hunters.

Replaced the old noching points, retuned and shot a few arrows with broadheads. Still getting nice groups out to what I feel is my effective range. Weather will be crappy for a couple days, so will use that time to shoot more and make sure I am comfy with the bow and my gropus over that time. Planning on hitting the woods Friday morning for the first time this season. Already have those pre-hunt gremlins in my belly.

Seeing how a neibor complained about me shooting my bow in my yard, and I had to give them the facts on what's legal and not legal. I don't think they will be too happy to see me cutting up a deer or two on my picnic table, so I need to know of a place to take a deer. Anyone know of such a place?

I am considering a small wall tent for the private land camp. I think that and a wood stove would help by buddy be willing to camp in colder weather. Would have been nice for this season if had the time, seeing the deer I scouted all summer bed down 100 yds from where we camp, and like to use our "potty spot " just as much as we do. LOL

It double posted my last reply.......

Good going. Two in the book and still early i the season.

I love it. I keep trying by buddies dad into letting us make some form of real camp, maybe even just an old extended vav, insulate it and get a generator, that way I can use it as a hunting camp too..I will keep trying..LOL The lil woman and I have thought about getting a small camper, just so we a place to get out of the elements. July week long trip was hell the first 3 days. Two small hurricanes came through. I still don't know how I kept the fire going...

Still use a tent. Have three set ups. One for backpacking, don't do this much anymore. One for car trips, big tent and a queen air mattress so as mentioned, the little woman is happy. So am I to be honest, I like that air matress! One me and a buddy use on his parents land, large tent and we both have a cot. We ATV in, so we can have a few comforts. We call it Camp Nowhere. I will try to get a few pics in from last summer at Camp Nowhere. It's about 3/4 a mile in, and the only big issue is the dang coyote pack that likes to wake us up in the middle of the night. This summer we remade the fire pit, a little bigger, and higher on one end to help feed wood when cooking and to help with smoke.

Using what? Easton or CX?

Ya don't! But, if I am paying for a guided hunt, I would expect some amenities. Not just "Here's a tree, sit by it, and you might get a deer.".

Been showing her that stuff for the 5 years we been together. Right now, we want to buy a house with land. So the 4-wheeler I have will be just fine. The boat can wait, my Jeep is just fine for now, and my boots are great. I did mention, a bow that made in this decade would be nice.....But, I ain't pushing my luck. LOL LOL bkln, She might......Depends who has to take the dog out last tonight.

Yep. Took it out of her truck, have it in a tree right now, airing out. Will put it in plastic and bring it in before bed. But, I was right. She wanted something. Apple picking, AGAIN!, on Sunday. You would think three times already was enough! LOL

Thank you.

Outstanding! The next thing you know, they will be able to drag the deer for ya bro.

The lil woman got home, we ate dinner, then she says, "I forgot my phone in my truck. Can you grab it for me?". After a bit of "Woman!.......", I went to get the phone. I opened the door and there was a brand new Mossy Oak hunting coat in there for me. I love my babe! She don't care what I do as long as I keep the health issues in check. She always has by back!

Sorry to double post. I was just siting here.....Lancaster.....Why do I know that area.........I lived in Rottenchester for a few years....But, the Buffalo area....?????????????? Then it hit me like a ton of bricks dropped right on my head! I had a g/f from that area! Really $lit on my life. Anyway.......... Tomorrow I will sight with my broadheads and hopefully get in the woods for a hunt Thursday or Friday.

Nope. I have been a Bills fan since I was 10. I am loyal, and even though I once called "Rich Stadium" ( remember those days? ), and got through to the security booth and demanded, "I want the Bills arrested for impersonating a football team!", I am still loyal. I got a visit from my local Fuzz for that one, and had to explain it was just a joke.....That's actually very true. I don't BS. I have no need to.

@firehunter48: If they will lodge in 1/2 roofing treated plywood, took me 20 minutes to carefully tap it out with a mallet, and it still shoots like the rest, I doubt they will break. I am using the 40-70# 30"ers. I won't swear by them as I am just getting back into bow hunting, but I will say thay out shot my old XX75's. They were like $150 a dozen. Back in the early '90's. @stoneam2006: I haven't had an issue with the knocks or incerts yet. I have shot the same 6 arrows DF for two weeks. About 500 shots. I have no doubt about the arrow. Tomorrow I will re-test with my broadheads. Just to make sure they still hit with my fingers. By that I mean accurate. I have no qualms about taking a deer with these arrows. I agree, an arow doesn't need to cost $56.99 for one to be good.

Careful....The "DOW" is still down, but the rest of us are still looking to "Down-A-Doe". So the price might be really high. Or really cheap. No stands? Hunt on the ground? No mention of blinds..Looks like a scam to me..But, that's just my VHO.

The White Tail is also made by CX ( Carbon Express ).
