And thought I'd stop in to say hello!!!! Had a little break so I figured I'd stop in and see how everyone was doing. My new job is keeping me hooked up, just no time to get on here. Hope everyone is doing well, and good luck hunting this year!!

So sorry to hear that Jeramie. Please pass my condolences on to your family.

I'm just ready to throw in the towel and cry UNCLE!!!!!

Holt crap!!!! Hope ya'll are ok. We got lucky down here, but today is shaping up to be another bad day....... Let's hope not

I dodged a bullet yesterday, had a huge funnel trying to form over my house, luckily it dissapated. Not a good feeling passing a storm chaser though on your way home

It's bad folks. I was actually in the path yesterday working, was able to get out of there before it hit. I ended up getting back into a neighborhood that was hit. I was actually trying to get back to my office as we serve the public safety sector. I didn't know whether to get out and help, or get out of there so that first responder could come in. When I left before it hit, I drove about two miles south and watched it cross I35. This was my first, and hopefully my last tornado. The destruction is unbelieveable. Luckily everyone I know that lives in that area escaped unscathed. But, there are hundreds that aren't so lucky. My heart aches for all those affected

A good cut on contact. I'd suggest Magnus Stingers/Stinger Buzzcuts. SUPER sharp, and when the bows tuned correctly, they fly with field points

I'm thinkingt that ND was SERIUOSLY overrated. Who did they beat this year again to make it to the BCS game???

I just love how some people fail to give where credit is due. And Louisville has a coach from the SEC, I believe 20+ years at various schools within the SEC. Hmmmm, coincidence? And if memory serves me correctly, Meyer QUIT after a disappointing season citing health "issues". Sounds to me like the Ohio boy couldn't hack playing football in a REAL conference

I'm with RangerClay. I LOVE the Hardwoods HD line, am NOT a fan of AP. Just to light for me. About the only place I have been able to use it is Texas. Just not alot of Tan in Oklahoma

Where I am even more confused now, is the fact that watching the coroner give a statement (why he did is beyond me), he even claimed that the victims suffered multiple "rifle" shots. So who knows.......

You know, I heard that as well at first, that the AR was in the trunk, and then it turned into the weapon used. I just wish the media would get it right, for ONCE! Just like Wayne LaPierre said, the media takes alot of fault in what has been reported, as they report only what they "want" to. Look at NBC and the Zimmerman case, how they edited the 911 call to portray Zimmerman as a racist, only to have the REAL unedited version come out later. I

Heard on the news both yesterday and today that Walmart, Academy, Dicks sporting goods have pulled the AR platform off some if not all their store shelves. Cheaper Than Dirt has quit selling firearms on line. The major investor behind Bushmaster is selling their holdings in the company. When are people going to stop blaming the gun and blaming the person? The last time I checked, which was here very recently, a gun is an inanimate object, lying there is unable to do harm to anyone. Only when a person with bad intentions, in the case of some of the unfortunate accidental shootings, or when a person is defending themselves, does a gun harm someone. What I'd like to do is a study on what brand/type of vehicles are involved in more DUI deaths, lets pull those. Lets pull forks, spoons for causing obesity. The list could go on and on.

WHEWWWW!!! Luckily all I shoot is the 130's!!

Cooked some back strap Sunday from last year, tasted fine. I vacuum seal all my meat, so that may make a difference. I do fish the same way, and you cant tell it's a year old

I FINALLY took a deer on my place!!!! Opening day found me in my "honey hole" (saw deer every sit last year, killing three here) on the local WMA. After sitting for 4hrs, and seeing nothing, decided to hunt the stand behind my house that evening, even though I had zero deer on the camera in the evening, they were all morning pics. Got in the stand about 530, and about 620 I hear "something". Look up, and low and behold there is a big fat doe stepping into the trail right in front of me. Turns out they ahve a highway coming from the neighboring land, and aren't falling the trail I cut for them, lol. I stand as she gets behind a tree, she takes about 4 steps, stops at the trail intersection where I walk to my stand. I settled my 20yd pin behind the shoulder, release, see the arrow disappear behind her shoulder. She of course runs off, and the nerves go haywire. I get down, found my arrow, very little blood:confused:. I knew where she went, so I start heading that way. As I thought that there were two, I saw a deer run off thinking it was the "other". well, turns out it was her. I find blood, started following it, and it's getting dark. I get back into the thickest crap I think I have on the place, and can hear her rummaging around. See her walking to the fenceline, so I beeline to get between her and it. I can hear her up in a mass of deadlimbs and waitaminute vines, and finally nothing. Ease up there and there she lies. Luckily I was able to get back in there with the 4-wheeler to drag her out, there was no way I could do it by hand. Don't know what she dressed, and in my haste forgot to get a pic. Pretty happy though that I finally was able to get one on my land. Sad to say though that the next Sat I shot a good buck, hitting him high. I searched the next day for several hours, following blood to a persimmon tree, all the way back to a rub, before losing blood. I don't think it was a fatal hit. Do have pics of another 8pt back there, don't know if it's him or not though. Last Friday had a buck chasing a doe back there, but didn't get a good luck at him, as I was looking right since it sounded like he may be coming out there. I'll be back up in that stand this Friday hopefully, if not definately this weekend. Got two does in the freezer, so I'm after one of the several bucks I have been able to get pics of. I'll be sure to get pics of him!!

Been there done that!!! I got lucky, mine was broadside. She bled good, died fast!

Muggs, pour out the koolaid my man. If OSU is so good, why did they have to go to OT to beat an UNRANKED team in Purdue? After the horrible offense/defense Florida had last year, I doubt very seriuosly that it has anything to do with Urban Meyer.

Been hearing that alot. I've , got activity all times of the day, morning, noon, evening, night. I say mother nature is to blame

I wish they would come back out with the Hardwoods Green HD!
-
Well, up until they started conference play this weekend, wasn't it like 5 or 6 of the top ten teams were from the SEC?
-
Just another reason I don't use mech heads. Seen to many deer shot on TV that these heads don't go through on. Never ever had an issue with my Magnus Stinger's

I to have heard the same thing

OOOPS!!!!! Guess I was in to much of a hurry to answer lol
