It gets worse once you get it. Wait till you have to sleep on the couch tonight because your wife won't let you bring it to bed with you.

Beautiful weapon. A true tack driver.

I don't have any pics, but there is a local group of us here that shoot 50 cal. competition at 1000 yds. Biggest problem is finding a place to shoot. Not to many 1000 yd. ranges.

Around here, the logging companies spray something on the roads to cut down on the dust and help with erosion. It's somewhat vicous and has kind of a sweet smell, but I have know idea what's in it...all I do know is, deer come for miles to lick the roads. I've seen deer lick a hole in the road to th...

The prices are not that bad either. Hope this helps

Farmer,

Does the EZ Fletcher have any problems using the small vanes?

but, it's legal to hunt with.

Always have...always will! Darn things seem to go on the fritz from time to time though. I KNOW that the truck is back the other way.

I also have and use a Map Guide 100 and a Map Guide Pro from Lowrance which I also use and am very happy with them. Lowrance has come out with an iFinder Hunt C [color]....

I'm shopping for a gps unit. I'd thought I'd ask you good folks your experiences with different units. My price range is up to about $250 to $300. There's lots out there and I was curious how much of the gizmos are just bells and whistles and how much of it is actually useful.

Anybody know anything about the carbon arrows that Barnett sells?... quality, who makes them, etc....? I found some 22" carbons very cheap, but I'm not going to get them if the quality is sub-par. I also don't know what the arrow dia. is...are they the same dia. and weight as the excal's?

Has anybody been on a buffalo hunt...or have information on buffalo hunts on public land? I know there are a lot of guided hunts on private land, but I was curious what's available for us poor folk.

Has anyone bought one of the arrow cases advertised in the Horizontal Bowhunter mag.? It looks pretty sweet...and holds everything in the world...but if it dosen't hold up to well, it's not worth the $90 dollar price tag.

When shooting my exocet this weekend, I started noticing that the string would not latch when cocking. You would here it click like it was cocked but the catch would not engage.
