Another newbie hooked

Post by pschank »

Just wanted to share, I'm hooked. Wanted to get into bow hunting so I picked up an Equinox end of last year. Got my bow license this year and started fall bow in NJ. Turned a firebolt red on a 130lb (dressed) doe 3 weeks back and scored on this 8pt last night (170 lb dressed).

Happy I chose crossbow and happier that I went with an Excalibur. I'm hooked!

p.s. Thanks for the help getting photobucket to work!!!

I tried following the "stickie" on how to post a picture (photobucket acct, copy link, etc), but I think instructions seem like they need to be revised.

If someone can tell me exactly what to do, I'll attach the photo (I made sure to get one of me with the deer and my equinox.

Thanks

When you are logged into Photobucket select View Library and hold the cursor over the photo that you want to post on the CB site. In the upper right corner of the Photobucket photo you will see a gear wheel. Selecting this gear wheel you will have the option of "Get Media Links". Select direct link and it will copy this direct link data. Go to your CB page and open your post. After you have entered your comments select the Img tab, (9th from the left) at the top of your post. The cursor will stop between,Img Img, the & ][ and you paste the Photobucket copied data there. Preview your post and your picture, (photo), should be there. Hope this helps.

Example of Photobucket direct link data.

A good thing to be hooked on for sure. Great bow and a fine looking deer as well. Congrats to you. :)
