Bill, good luck. I know Mike took good care of her, and it should do you just fine. Great starter bow too I might add.

You're a good uncle Bill! :D What a great Christmas gift. Good luck to you and especially your nephew. That's a great little bow. It may not be one of the heavy hitters but it's still a deadly killer. :wink:

There comes a time in a mans life when you forgo the hunting in crappy weather. Without giving up Bill's age, let's just say somewhere between 50 & 75. I do hunt in the rain, but the ground blind gets the nod on those days! :lol: :lol:
Bill, looking forward to some pictures of the harvest! :wink:

I'm not afraid of melting in the rain and sat many a day some time all day but don't like what it does to a blood trail . don't want to lose any critters cuss I lost the blood trail do to getting washed away. I agree some time rainy weather is the best time to be in the timber. JMO

Paul you got some good ideas . one of my hunten partners is the fire chief here might ask him if he would try your idea . NOT. I will tell you what will work is the string tracker. I have used it on my vertical recure with good results.
