  1. All I can say is wow what a season this year , I decided to take my 8 yr old out "deer hunting" with me tonight with very low expectations as she cant sit still or be quite yet, so we get to the stand around 4 pm and at 5 this nice little 6 point came out 65 yrds out ,i pointed it out to her so she saw it then set the cross hairs on it and let er fly, he ran 20 yrds and stood there for 3 minutes or so then we saw him fall !! and abbie was totally geeked and wanted to get down see "our Buck" what a great moment to see her that excited about hunting i am truly blessed with two great daughters who love to hunt and fish! She had to count the points before i even got to touch the deer so i took this pic. love it ! That makes 4 deer out of this stand this year :thumb:

  4. This is my 14 yr old daughter Jessie on october 20 she arrowed this doe with her grandpas cross bow( he passed away a few years ago) so it meant a lot to her to shoot a deer with it. She made a perfect shot rite behind the shoulder and dropped her in her tracks!Sorry the picture isnt great quality,i had to use my phone.

  5. Wow what a day in the A.M. i went huntin for geese and got my two geese and two mallard ducks:D this evening i took my 14 yr old daughter jessie out deer hunting and she shot a small doe with her grandpas cross bow she made a perfect shot and the deer droped in her tracks!! She was so excited and i couldnt be more proud of her , she shot one during the youth hunt and we could not recover it ,she was bumbed but did not give up and did not hesitate to pull the trigger this time. :thumb:

  6. went waterfowl hunting this morning as it was raining again! first action was ducks had 2 circle twice and on the third time around i shot them both. Then the geese came (around 100) but they slid off to the side and would not commit a half hour later 6 geese came off a pond i called em around and landed them in the deeks :grin: let the old 12 gauge bark and had my two geese for the day time to fire up the grill yummy!

  7. Mark, I will say this, i was disapointed in the penitration of the cross bow, i have shot newer ones and they are accurate out to 80 yards but i wonder about the penitration you would get, i know my deer was only 20 yrds and it hit the opposite sholder and did not go thru it , but i also had a rage broadhead on the bolt to. with my 65 lb compound im sure i would have passed thru with my 90 grain muzzy. those are just just my thaugts about the cross bow it is easier to move and get on the deer and is very accurate tho.

  8. well with the lake being to ruff ta fish i decided to go to the tree stand this mornig at 8 oclock two does came by and i just couldnt pass up the chance for some fresh backstraps! So i took one of em first one with a cross bow and rage broadhead ,put it rite down with a heart shot .:thumb:
