Yep, all your hunting buddies gonna be trying to trade you out of it. :mrgreen:

I was getting bored with my Zombies this fall, so I chatted Jerry up on the phone and ordered some of his new Tactical Tapps all dressed up sweet an' purdy for 100 yds plus. Next purchase gonna be a set of those dbkiller bumpers from Dr Stirrup for the 380, then its a couple months wait an' see for which new scope models shake out of the ATA show in January.
Current interest: VPA non-vented 125gr, 150gr, 175gr broadhead flight for long range

Dan... Currently thinking about the drone... They stopped manufacturing it at OLM.... Was told production costs too high... Your thoughts on its use, wt etc... Can pick up on eBay for 250 delivered...

Anthony :)
I had one of the older Olman Drones. It was pretty heavy (steel) but rock solid on the tree. The mesh seat was pretty comfortable. I didn't like the pin/cable system much. The cable would turn sometimes making inserting a pin in the hole very difficult, especially in the dark. You did have some adjustment for the angle on the tree and that did come in handy a few times.

I would not want to pack it very far. I have and it is a job as it weighed around 30 pounds if I remember right!!

The new ones are Aluminum though they still offer a steel one to.

Added Guradian ADF and a new Twilight DLX to my Exomax. Will replace the limbs this spring because of a few splinters thought the limbs took 5 deer this year splinters and all.

Thought about getting a new bow but can't justify it the way the Exomax performs.

My daughters gave me an Amazon Gift Card plus a nice set of Tree Stand Side bags. May get serious about the Ghost Blind now.

I got 8 new bare shaft 20" spine indexed Spynal Tapps from Jerry at Tapp Nation. Have not fletched them yet but going to install 2" Blazers ans 92 grain inserts for a total weight around 405 grains. Might put on lighted nocks which will bring them to about 425 grains.

I got a Cabela's brand DC Pro meat grinder w lifetime warranty.
I used it today grinding some venison up and it ground it as fast as I could
feed it. Very happy with it. Now I can throw the Rival brand in the trash.

Thinking off selling my compound bow to buy a another excal to back my 405 up. Planning to buy another ladder stand- Rivers Edge 21 footer. Also looking to find something to help me put ladder stands up. I bought a device that attaches to the tree last year; but the spikes would not hold the bottom of the stand in the ground. Last but not least I want to pick up a few more trail cams when they go on clearance.
