I do have an old single shot from sears, that I might use for my second, if I can get out to pattern it in the spring. Anyone know where som...

Looking forward to next year, and getting out scouting during the off season. I am going to do some small game hunting over the winter. Still a crossbow virgin, but not conc...

Yes they are dangerous! If you are interested in some exciting real life stories about wild dogs, read the book The Tracker The true story of Tom Brown, Jr as told to William Jon Watkins. Chapter 7, The Dog Tree is a prime example. It is a great read! They have it at Chapters/Indigo.

I have the eTrax from last year. It is really busy as quoted earlier. Sometimes when I need it most, it comes up with two lines of pixels straight up and down the screen in the center.

I have a 2008 Phoenix and apparently the only way to distinguish it from last years model was the fact that it came with the 25 anniversary hat and a slight hint of red in the cammo pattern. If you want the hat, buy now, it is a nice hat. :D

VixChix, when I saw your gun, I thought the arrow was edited in to point out some small amount of damage to the stock :lol:

I listen to CBC Radio One on the way out to the forest and Classic Rock on the way home. I like early ZZTop, Ozzy, Led Zepplin, the Who and occasionally Charlie Daniels.
