Now you're thinkin! Nice job!

Some people just have that 'whatever it takes' attitude. Buckmaster7600 has that attitude! I respect that! Sometimes, ya got to work for what you want. Because it will not always just fall in your lap.

Welcome!

Sako gets my vote. But only slightly over the Dakota. Everything on the list gets an honorable mention! Nice group o' guns!

He is 13, a Jr. Archer, and getting to be pretty good shooting his bow. Second season for him. Looking for his first deer this year. We will not be too picky on what that deer it will be. Doe, young buck, or one of the decent bucks, that show up now and then. First good shot he gets, he's taking.

I wash everything in scent free detergent, even regular work clothes. I don't like the "fresh perfume" smell of regular stuff. Keep all my hunting clothes in totes, just so they are all together. Get dressed at home, have a smoke as I go out, and another on stand, wear my clothes till they NEED washing! Kill deer every year with the wind in my face.

Bought license today for grandson and myself. No 4-H DMP this year. But within a mile or so from here, two doe have been killed by vehicles in the last week.

Happy Birthday! Hope you're still celebrating your special day!

Got a lot of friends here who are Bills fans. Sorry, but Go Panthers!!! Go pay some bills and wash the truck Larry.

Nice shootin moog! I too, agree with rob-c , middle first. That is a deadly shot. Almost perfect in fact. The quartering away shot is the one I always picture, when I dream of that booner coming in to my set up!

Just outside, and down wind, of the closest thick, nasties that leads to this spot.

I wonder if Bruce Jenner bought a muff?

Wow! That is a lot of elk! Best of luck with your hunting! Keep safe. Please post up some pic's when ya get one down!

Beautiful rifles! I don't own one, but I am an admirer.

Just wondering why you bought it? As you seem so motivated to sell it after only two months. Perhaps looking for something bigger?

I posted about this last year. We got some new members and maybe others may have missed it. So I'll put it up again. It's almost time to hit the deer woods to hunt! Some of us have been looking forward to this season, since the end of last season! Doesn't matter how much practice you have done with bow, crossbow, shotgun or rifle. Long time hunter or newby. Something could go wrong, and a shot may not hit where intended. Unfortunately it has happened to me, and could happen to any hunter. Bloodtracking is a learned skill. And I have been doing it for decades. On my own for family or friends, and since 1999, with Deer Search as a NYS certified tracker, using blood tracking dogs. My mentor for Deer Search was John Jeanneney. John is a founding member of Deer Search, and was instrumental in enacting the legislation in the late 70s, to allow the use of certified blood tracking dogs in NYS. John has seen it all, in his thousands of tracking sorties, over many, many years! And is one of the most experienced blood trackers in the US. After all those years, he has given up tracking, due to health reasons. But he wrote a book, actually books, on blood tracking, based on all he has seen and learned while in the woods, tracking deer and bear. His book, "Dead On" has a wealth of information and tips, that could be the difference, in recovering a deer or not!!! Experienced hunters with years of hunting behind them, will learn something from this book. And the hunters, just starting out, or with little or no experience on blood tracking, will find it invaluable! I can not recommend this valuable tool any higher! My only motivation for writing this, is if it helps recover even one deer this year that may not have been recovered otherwise, it will be worth it! I have absolutely no monetary interest in the sale of this book. My only motivation is to help fellow hunters. The book can be purchased through amazon, perhaps other places if you google it. Wishing everyone a successful season! May all your shots be true! But if the unthinkable happens and one is not, this book will be very helpful to you. We owe it to the animals we hunt, to do everything within our means to recover that animal. Our dog Xola! She will be two and a half this season, and will really start to shine this year.

With so much going on this time of year, I'm never ready. But somehow always make the opener.

Can't beat it for the price! It's a darn good crossbow! IMO, better than some others at twice the price! Have fun!

Made me laugh out loud!

Jeez,...... I just checked in to see what Pygmy had to say. Nice choice with the Cabela's muff though.

Add more $ to the price if you sell to a hunter! Or Ask the new owner for hunting privileges after the sale! Or Post the GPS coordinates for the hunters on this forum!........................grin. Beautiful bucks by the way.

Real nice buck! Good luck with him!

I have and love this crossbow! Puts my Barnett to shame. Fun backyard shooting, with my grandson. May even get some woods time this November!

That little spot I showed you last year, may be good again this year, in Thatcher, for early bow season?? Might be worth a try? Good luck. The no rifles in Thatcher does put a crimp in things there.

I bought the Centerpoint. Have to say, Savagehunter is a great guy to deal with!!!
