Well, her opening weekend hunt wasn't the best ever. She is used to seeing and hearing birds on opening day and usually we tag out. We were hoping it would be like that.

I have a Martin #J-8 fletching jig and yes I can get different clamps for it, I just havn't bothered. That is a good idea though and a cheaper price always sounds good to me. I was suprised at how...
I had been using vanes because that just happen to be on the arrows that I was buying. When I went to the bow shop to get feathers I ran into problems. They did not have left vane feathers. The...
Hey everyone,
I am having problems with my center serving just below the nocking point. The serving tends to twist and move. Sometimes it works loose and even doubles over on it self. It gets to...
Thanks everyone. We purchased our turkey licenses on Tuesday. The youth hunt begins tomorrow with the regular hunt begining on the 15th. My daughter is excited. It was fun watching her purchase...
For years my daughter has been going along with me on my hunts. She has even called in many turkeys and elk but she has never carried a weapon. After shooting last years bird she said, "That's it,...
Now that is one serious hole in that deer. Good job and congrats on the kill. Neat second story as well. I love to see wildlife in action (poor squirrel). I love it!
The saddle bags look great. How heavy is the material for those bags. Do you use manufactured patterns or do you make your own. I have been looking for a good backpack pattern. I made my own and...
I am sure I will always remeber this hunt. Just thinking about the stalk and how it played out brings an adrenaline rush everytime. This was one of my most memorable hunts but I seem to say that...
I do not have any finger pinch and it shoots smooth. I shoot with three fingers under and it seems to work great. Before this bow, I had been shooting long bows. This is my first recurve and I am...
Thanks, I have been looking for a nice camo material. I make all my own camo including gloves, back packs, and light jackets. I grew up with a mom that taught us boys how to make our own clothes so...
That is one nice deer. I am jealous, I have yet to shoot anything with my bow but not for lack of trying.
Yea, this was my first attempt at making a quiver. It looks real nice but the hood is...
I'm shooting a Martin Hi-Speed, 50* @ 28" but I draw 29.5". Because I shoot instinctive I keep wondering if I should have drew my bow and then stepped out. I think I could have connected but too...
I recently started making my own bows as well. I do not have a lot of experience but I will tell you I have done lots of research on the subject. It can be hard to find Osage that is long and...
I have gone both ways. Usually I start off with a mask and shed it as the day warms up. The deer do not seem to care either way, of course their still out there running on the mountain.(LOL) As...
Thanks,
My only problem with drawing earlier, which I thought about doing and maybe should have, is I am using a recurve and I can't hold it too long. Still it all happened quick and I probably...
Well I took my bow for a walk this September. I saw deer every day of the hunt and most of the time they were bucks. I did have a chance at a real nice buck on the first day but I blew it big. I...
Well, I finished my second quiver and it is bigger and deeper. I do not think it looks as nice as the first one but it holds six arrows instead of four. It seems to be holding up ok.
I will post...
I agree 100% with you but I am still going to take a chance. I do not know how much FPS I am loosing but the arrow seems pretty fast. However, everything I have shot before this bow has been a...
It must be a big foot. They must really hide good and thats why we never see a good picture. Yup, there's got to be a yeti in there some place. LOL!
This picture is of me and my first and biggest passion of all, FLY FISHING!!!

My name is DuWayne.
I like to carry an arrow with a blunt on it so I can have fun in the woods. I shoot small logs, rotten stumps and I might even shoot a little bunny rabbit if chance arises. I would hate to go for an...
I have question along this line as well. I have never used a Flemish style string. What are the pro's and con's versus a continous string. I make my own strings and the continous string is quick...
I made camo bow sleeves to help with the glare on my bow. I had never shot my bow without those sleeves. Yesterday I had taken the limb sleeves off and shot my bow. I could not believe how much...
Great story. I am glad you held off and waited. Too many times I hear people say they shot a deer or an elk but could never find it. They say things like they followed the blood trail for three...
