Sounds like you've got bone spurs adn that popping is them doing one of two things or both. After a period of time bone spurs will wear a socket into the opposite bone and when a new motion is introduced it will take the spur out of its normal area and therefore create a pop. Also, it could be the same bone spur popping against a tendon and eventually start cutting through it. Believe me this is what I've had done ot me on both shoulders. My doctor told me it was from age, wear and tear from years of sports, repetative motion work, and a couple of car accidents hurting my shoulders. He tells me, WELCOME TO MIDDLE AGE! LOL Good luck to you and keep us posted on your status.

I bought the new 4-sided block last year and have shotthe heck out of it with broadheads, its lasted very well and has a lot of life still left in it. They are a bit pricey but well worth the money in my opinion.

I don't like fooling with a rubber band or an O-ring.

After having two shuolder surgeries in the last three years, I feel your pain. Your pain could be from a couple of different things, one could be bicep tendonitis, bone spurs in the joint socket, or a slight tear in your rotator cuff. I hope for you it is only one of these and not the last one. It sounds like to me that it is a bone spur and its aggrivating the tendons around it since you've gone up to heavier draw weight. Also, 67# is a lot to shoot for tournaments, that is what I've got my hunting bows set up and my tourney bow is on 60 pounds. Give time, take care of it, ice it down and take a deflamitory like Ibuprofen.

Yeah, one of the e-mails I got from a lady, she said check out these two fraulicking around. I replied back, They'd look good fraulicking across the grill together!:D
-
These have been in e-mails going around here last year. It is cute, but have recieved them as e-mails with statements of how can I shoot something so cute? Oh yeah, Bambi wasn't a Mule deer! LOL

I've got a Road/Mountain Specialized Hardtail bike I love to ride only on the road (I don't do off road), and waiting on the weather to get warmer to start riding again. My longest ride has been 37 miles so far but looking to top that this summer with a 50 miler. Good luck to you and be safe!

I had a .308 for years and switched to the 7mm-.08 a few years back. I love thi srifle and it has yet to let me down. I just tried out the 120 grain Spitzer this fall and WOW did they do great. I've also used the 140 Nosler Partition with great results. I will be trying out 140 grain Accu Bond this fall. By the way, I took a deer at 154, 208, and 306 yards this past fall with the 120 grain Spitzer.

Hey guys! Thank you so much for the info and it helped out greatly. I did check each case last night with my calipers and they were within .005 of each other, had one or two that was about , .007 different on length. My problem I ran into was different types of bullets, from a soft point to a speer type bullet. I found out the head space o each is different. DUH So I have to adjust that height accordingly. Once again, I appreciate all the help and information this guys! Take care and Shoot Straight!

Doe Buck these are two deer my buddy shot in Ohio with the Rage 2 head. Both devistated and awesome blood.

I got the sweetest deal on a Ruger M77/22 this past Wednesday, it is in great condition with the exception of a scratch on the barrel and I can live with that. I got if for 400.00 and couldn't wait to get it home and shoot it. I put a Bausch & Lomb 3-12x50 on it , clean it up and went out to shoot it. Took six shots to get a half inch group at 50 yards. I have wanted one of these rifles for so long and I mean a long time. I was 13 when I saw my first 22 Hornet rifle and have wanted one ever since, I am now 41. LOL Anyway, my question is about reloading this joker. i've got all my brass, bullets, powder, etc., does anyone have any experience at loading these dainty little things? I've read my reloading manuals several times about the die's and all that good stuff. I just don't want to screw this up, I'm going to load some H110 and Lil Gun for my rounds and shooting a 45 grain bullet. #1 Do I need to form the full case? #2 Do I need to trim new cases? #3 Is there anywhere I can get detailed information specifically about the 22 Hornet reloading? I know its more than one question but I am a bow guru and new to reloading rifles. I don't have a problem with my 44 mag reloading that is simple with a straight walled case. I'm just a bit intimidated with a necked case. any help would be greatly appreciated!

I like the Extreme sights, I've got the RT900's in .019 pins, very bright and work great in doors as well. I don't know how your 3-D classes in your neck of the woods work, but normally you can't shoot a movable sight in Hunter Class except an HHA style sight.

I've got plenty of pictures from this past season, but one vividly sticks out in my mind and it was a picture. An actual bowhunting mental picture of a huge 140 class 9 point I had at 10 yards full drawn on him and couldn't or DIDN'T pull the trigger. Everything was all wrong, starting with the way he came in, went the wrong direction and that dang maple tree I looked at several times and thought about cutting some branches off. Yep, I hate this time of year! LOL Any who, here is a picture of one of my stands that holds great postetial this coming season. I had that big 6 at 18 yards opening day and put down the bow for my video camera, he'll be great this coming season as well as the other bucks in this shot.

That pointless screw gives you your wall, at full draw this draw stop rests on the string so you don't have a spongy feeling at full draw. It should feel rock solid. I'd go and get another if I was you.

248 post and nothing has been resolved except tempers are still flaring and personal attacks are getting higher. With that, this post is being officially locked.

My bad, two different bucks. Regardless, either are giants. Here's link to the one I thought this buck was and taken by a bowhunter. http://www.fieldandstream.com/node/1001315071

Things like this need to be made more public and uncover this bunch of hypocrites.

That deer was killed by a bow hunter 5 miles from where this video was taken.
