Re: Great Opening Day With The 330!
Here's how I do it:
1) I open a photobucket window and a separate window for this forum. The forum window is opened to the "Post a Reply" box.
2) Then I go to the photobucket window and click on the image in photobucket that I want to paste on the forum reply box.
3) After the image is shown in photobuck, I drag the mouse cursor over to the right side of the page. I think there are four different boxes over there. I place the cursor over the box labeled Image and click. It automatically says something like "copied."
4) Then I open the forum window and right click in the reply box to paste the copied code.
5) I delete the code before [img] and after [img]
6) Then I preview the post. Some of the specifics I cited might be a little off because I'm going off memory here, but it'll get you through it.

Re: Great Opening Day With The 330!
Alright, way to go! Yep, pretty hard to believe that hole didn't bleed much! Lol
Re: Great Opening Day With The 330!
Great pics and a dandy buck. I'm also digging that stirrup wrap job.

Re: Great Opening Day With The 330!
nothing wrong with that hole and what great shot.Why some bucks run long distances and do not bleed much i seen it happen with high powered rifles with good hits and snow on ground...
Very nice Buck for sure...Great way to end season i hope mine ends that way in october here in pa but if it does not that is ok i enjoy woods and hunt not kill and many times i hope i do not kill a buck until after being out in woods a lot .
last year was first in longtime i did not kill a buck do to doe reduction program here in pa and increase in hunters in my area ..

Re: Great Opening Day With The 330!
Nice Buck! Congrats. The reason the blood trail petered out is the heart shot you made. If you had made a double lung shot only there would be blood to where he dropped. With the heart gone there will be no pumping pressure to push blood out the holes. Some deer can go quite a distance before the brain gets starved of Oxygen and goes unconscious. Still an awesome shot and the deer is just as dead.

Re: Great Opening Day With The 330!
Thanks for the kind words fellas! Makes sense with the heart not pumping blood anymore but I would still think that there would be something to follow. 55 yds is not a far tracking job for sure and if you hit them there they are not running far anyways!
The paracord wrap came about when I first got the bow and was worried sick about the noise. It has a really thin tennis racket grip on under the paracord. It helped some with the sound but it also protects the stirrup from any rocks and deadens the sound if you hit it on the stand by accident. I put a matching wrap on the skinny piece of stock under the thumb hole that looks really good. That is, of course, just for looks though. I have since realized that the sound that these bows make does not have any effect on the live target. They have no idea whats coming as this buck proved. He was as calm after the shot as he was before the shot. Im sure that a nervous deer might react some, but I don't know yet.

What type of knot did you use on the paracord wrap? Would love to do something like that on my stirups!!
