I go through times of flinch - especially when I shooting 375 H&H or 416 Rigby or worse yet 300 Win Mag Damn that thing kicks! Anyhow I go back to good old 22 rifle and do some indoor range shooting at 50 feet. After a couple hours I am back to watching the hole form in the target after I pull t...

Good shot man... The magic wack! Gotta love it...

Nice looking buck - congratulations. I know exactly what you mean about second guessing your shot. I shot a black bear sow with 375 H&H Mag Labor Day week and that sucker took off like nothing happened. I went up to the area where I hit her. There was mass quantities of blood and white tissue ch...

Congratulations!!! It is a trip when you bag one....

I nailed a 175# doe tonight - it was too dark to take pictures, maybe I 'll take one tomorrow and post it. It was my first with my Phoenix. With a straight through broadside shot just above the heart she made it about 125 yards. Went crashing down a steep bank down to a creek. When she jumped over s...

God yes! I love all my weapons. I'm looking forward to dropping a couple deer with the Xbow and then I stake out the gut piles and nail coyotes with 220 Swift. I love what that Swift does to coyotes. Damn song dogs ate all my chickens so I having to buy eggs at store. I got a score to settle with th...

I don't think it is so much following the arrow but keeping a focus on where it is supposed to hit. I do this when I am shooting my best with rifles. It is kind of like following through when swinging a baseball bat or golf club or whatever. I also do this when shooting trap. If you keep your eye on...

Wolf - That is pretty cool. I have lost it as far as longbows are concerned. How does the peep sight work. Do you actually look through rubber tubing that is stretched when you pull back the string? I was just amazed by these guys from AZ. They were dropping arrows into the vital zone on black bear ...

Hey nice buck Farmer. You did good!

What's that cable just above the handgrip for?

Don't feel too bad Wolf - when I broke my back I lost all muscle from nipples on down so after 20 years I got shoulders like legs, but I can't draw a bow. Up in Maine at bear camp, some guys from AZ came up and bow hunted. I swear, I don't know how they get them bows through the brush with all them ...

After you shoot it a few times the string will stretch a little and it will move foreward between the lines.

Shoot that sucker with a couple beers in ya and ya might end up castrated

DrDan

Wow I would like to hunt moose! Great mount... I think I'll get in the lottery in Maine and see if I'm lucky and draw a tag

LOL Reason I'm in a wheelchair is falling out of treestand deer hunting. Was climbing down and put my weight on a 3" diameter branch to swing down to next branch. Last thing I saw as I was doing a backflip straight into the earth was dry rot powder falling off that 3" diameter branch that ...
