  1. Re: Pictures of your game room? I'll have to try and get the last corner of my room, for some reason it wouldn't up load. My wife calls it the man room, since she has no say so it what goes in it! LOL Got it! [image][/image]
  2. Re: new bow or equipment Craig is right, check out the classifieds or ebay. That Parker package sounds like a good deal, it's probably one left over from the bowseason and reduced on price. If you just want to keep your and re-outfit it take it to a pro shop and let them do everything. I'd go with a fiber opitc sight of some sort and the whisker biscuit is good rest. Most of all go with what you want, a good pro shop will help you on your decisions. Good luck to you and WELCOME to the forums.
  3. Re: What would you do? John is right, packed dogs are terrible. I had to call the animal control officials two years ago on three large shepard-lab mix dogs. They charged me and killed a few deer around the house. If I'd had my pistol in my hand instead of the trash cans, there would have been some dead mutts. If there is a leash law, contact your local animal control or the owners and inform them of their dogs activities.

  5. Re: finnally got a biggun Great deer, especially out of Ga. Congratulations and welcome to the forums. I'd say he'll go around the mid 130's, maybe hit the 140's.
  6. Re: How much time do you spend on Realtree Forums? Now that I'm out of work re-couping from surgery. About 2 hours a day, once I go back to work. Maybe and hour every other day or less. I never really knew how busy I was until I slowed down. LOL
  7. Re: Gift Ideas?? The new digital photo frames. I got one for my wife they are totally cool. You can set them to one picture or they can change pictures on time settings. It sure beats looking at the same picture day after day. I'd like to get one for my den and put hunting picutres in it. Radio Shack, Circuit City, and Best Buy have them.
  8. Re: whisker biscuit Finn hit the nail on the head about the arm guard, but I do use a RT arm guard while hunting when I have thick cold weather clothes on. It's purpose is to give the string clearnace, by compressing your sleeve down. A string hitting your coat sleeve is bad news for bowhunters. Alos, if your hitting your arm, it may be from the draw length being to long or your torqueing the bow, make sure it's the correct one for you. Some bows don't really need a stablizer, because of string dampeners and dampeners in the risers, but most others will to absorb shock and vibrations. The stablizer takes and absorbs alot of the shot shock and balances the bow out. Having your bow restrung is completely up to how much string wear you are getting and that depends on the amount you shoot your bow. Most string materials are now are so durable, the average shooter can make them last for 3 to 5 years. I would try a release to start with, it'll grealy improve your accuracy and holding ability. Just keep your finger off the trigger while drawing the bow back, it'll deter you from bowhunting if you don't. LOL
  9. Re: STEP OUT OF THE CIRCLE....... Pearson had been on the down side of archery for the last few years and a few years prior to that. Coleman had bought them out, I shot Pearson bows up until then, the quality went down hill fast. I've looked at the new line up and they look awesome. Clay I don't think you could go wrong with one of these new bows. As far as the circle, I haven't dropped my garlic necklace, so I can't get into it. Darn the luck! LOL
  10. Re: Realtree Road Trips Closer to late spring, early summer just in time to get us pumped up for the 2007 season.
  11. Re: Whacked me a Doe! Cool story and great picture, Congrats on the Doe!
  12. Re: 20 - Andrea\'s Boys Awesome job Bushman! Congrats!
  13. Re: Finally got my 7-pointer pics Congrats on a nice buck!
  14. Re: whisker bisquit I've got one on my Martin Slayer and it's one fine arrow rest. It's one of those so eay a caveman can use rest, but it's also a very reliable rest. It does make a little bit of a sound with some arrows, but I also hunt with a tiger tuff prong rest on my other bow, with no shrink tubing on it and have no problem with deer hearing that when I draw on them. I know it's a pet peeve for some on a rest making draw noise, but it's not as critical as most think. Bemans or ST AXis arrows are whisper quiet on the draw, FYI.
  15. Re: Another one for the Muzzy boys Man, I just love when those Muzzy's do some eating! Congrats on the Doe!
  16. Re: Muzzy MX-4\'s Tony-that extra 25 grains onthe tip of the shaft might be throwing your FOC off just enough to affect the flight out that far. I have the same problem with the 110 3-blade, that why I've stuck with the 75's for the last 4 years. Joe-I'd say if your shooting a 100 grain head now, that you shouldn't have much of a problem getting them to fly or tune.
  17. Re: marten saber ? A sporting goods store has them for sale at the 400.00 range, if it's in as good of shape as your saying. Buy it! I've got the Slayer and it's one dang fine shooting bow.
  18. Re: A heratfelt thank you for the Bulldawg Fundraiser You hang in there and get better!
  19. Re: Too Dang Quiet I've been on here all week at 5 am or earlier an nobody is up, the one morning I sleep in and the users are raising cane! LOL Greg-I feel your pain on the diapers changes, buddy. I'm those days are behind me. I still have to wash their under and outer garmets now.
  20. Re: Amei-step Rapid Rails I found more of them for 79.99, they aren't the aluminum ones. PM me if anyone wants the site for them.
  21. Re: Lets see your 06 Deer! [image][/image] My 2006 Ohio 8 point
  22. Re: When you are lost I feel so sorry for the family. I watched some more news on it this morning and they said if he had went the other way. He would have ran into a firestation with supplies only three miles away, instead of the ten he walked in a semi-circle.

    In The Womb

    Re: In The Womb Yeah, I can't wait to watch that, they do have a light on the end of that camera. That's the reason it looks digital, how else could it be seen inside the dark womb?
  24. Re: Funny stuff that happens hunting! You know how a woman in camo just drive's men crazy! LOL
