Good read. And you didn't even mention the absolutely weird weather! My main area is thick except for the logging drag trails, and they were pretty much mud bogs most of the late season. Made it next to impossible to get around quietly. Next year's gotta be better!

Save up yer bucks for a new one. Save up some more for the whole kit w/ bolts, quiver, extra string, stringer, etc.
The accessories that Bill puts in the kits are excellent and work very well with the bow.
Penny-pinch on beer, but not on your bow.

If you look close, you can see where the natural tines end and the prosthetics start. There's a natural curve to each tine, and the extensions are pretty obvious.

But then, we see what we want to see, eh?

I noticed in the video that came with my Phoenix that almost every bow shown in the video had string silencers installed, although this wasn't mentioned at all.
Mine doesn't seem that loud at all, but then I've been shootin' a smokepole for a while.

Never in the woods, or even in the truck I take to get there, and never with my huntin' clothes on. Deer have an incredible sense of smell. If you have a good wind in the right direction and you're elevated in a stand, it probably doesn't make that much difference, but otherwise, it could kill your ...

Thanks, y'all. Got a lot to learn. First year hunting in Ohio. Way different from South Texas! No heated tower blinds. LOL.
How 'bout this weather, Wabi! Finally got a North wind today. Didn't go out this mornin' due to the thick mud on the loggin' drag lines, but headed out shortly.
