Tortuous addiction we have. Have to do it, then sad when its over.

Yes it is always nice when you can back down and get the same results. I shot 85 lbs back in the late 80's....287 fps. Then in 2008 62lbs got me the same 287 fps with same grain arrow. Betting that 50 lb Image might get close with my arrow.

The boys and I were watching Podium Archer with MFJJ last night. I am a Hoyt guy but this little bow looked impressive. Seemed to be screaming fast to me. Or am I just way behind times? Anybody else think this is really fast?

Anyone local know of such? https://www.1380kcim.com/2022/10/21/suspected-great-lakes-gray-wolf-spotted-in-carroll-county-thursday/

Well I am still not sure I am not living in a dream. This whole season has been buck less for Tackett, Wyatt, and myself. Except for two big boys. Only a spike and forky in range for the boys. They were so hoping for even a 110-120 to show in bow range. But Tackett ended up with Junior(148 7/8)...

Bump for the veterans!!!!!

Yep. This was Junior. He really needed another year or two. Had two years of pics and videos. He was pretty calm and I figured no one else would pass him.

Yes it has been documented that predators kill for fun/practice. Yes there are a lot of politics involved.

Tackett got this buck in youth firearms season this past weekend. Crazy part is that it could have been a bow kill. Tackett was on the ground on a bucket. Saw his rack coming slowly. He was eating buck brush. Tackett did a 180 on the bucket and turned around. Said he was thinking the whole time...

Had one in my scope in 1987 at 80 yards in sunlight on 9 power on my scope. It was not a coyote which is why I didn't shoot. Treed one in 1998 while coonhunting. Huge male looking head on him. Golfball sized green eyes will raise the hair on the back of your neck up. Have seen about 7 to 8 of...

So I have shot a 3 pin sight for 42 years. Tackett my 13 year old bought a used HHA Optimizer when he bought a used Mathews Vertix. Had he not bought the Optimizer I wouldn’t have discovered how good he can shoot. He walked it all the way back to 90 yards on a block target. So in one months we...

He is up to 45 Lbs now. Could pull more but I am leaving it there for now. QAD exodus 100 grains. Easton 5 mm axis. Twenty six inch draw I think. Elite Basin bow Stan element release HHA Tetra sight HHA dual stabilizer system Two years ago he shot a doe at 10 yards perfect broadside with his...

Saturday night Wyatt and I were hunting out of “Karli’s tree”. It is a big oak with no tree stand. It will accommodate two hunters side by side. We stand on a limb that is about 7’ off the ground and sit on the other two limbs. (Perfect natural seat and foot platform) Text book hunt. He spots...

At my tech school we have been talking about doing things for veterans. Was surfing YouTube this weekend and came across this. My dad and brother and uncle served. So I know that veterans carry a lot with them. Just felt compelled to share this with Veterans Day approaching.

Might be getting closer…..

Sounds like a perfect mid life crisis release!

Hope he makes it to 5 or 6! Keep us updated every year. LOL

Here 14:45 is where the drawing lesson comes in at.

I shot 85 lbs for years. Now I shoot about 60. Why? My 2008 Hoyt Katera XL shoots the same grain arrow that my 85 lb bow shot at the same 287 fps. More importantly learn to draw properly. Bow high and draw arm up high. It looks like sky drawing but it isn’t. I’ll post a video to show it.
