  1. 2 packs of Steelhead 100 XL's plus a replacement balde kit. 6 broadheads - 1 has been shot for sighting in. The rest have been in my quiver, but have not been shot. $35 TYD.
  2. Just wondering what color pins everyone prefers.. I had usually used Red, but have found that red blurs for me, so I have been using Red for the 20 yard pin and Green for the rest. I also think green shows up better in the low light? Thoughts..
  3. The picture just makes me think of a line from the movie JFK..... "Back and to the left, Back on to the left"
  4. We just bought a new one, love it. I have traditionally bought Microsoft stuff, but continually had issues. This time I decided to spend more & bought a Mac. I really love it. My wife doesn't use a computer much & these are a lot more user friendly, and the big plus is no viruses to worry about...
  5. Today has been a LOOOOOONG time coming - I can't wait for the returns to start coming in tonight - I can't wait for Ms Speaker of the house to realize she is out of a job - I think the Harry Reid will be beat - I can't wait to hear how the president tries to spin this expecting whipping tomorrow!!!!:cell:
  6. Now the Mexican gov't says the murder of the man leading the investigation has nothing to do with this case? Sounds like they are scared to make an issue with the drug cartels.
  7. Very disapointing for me so far - been passing up small bucks. The weather has been way to warm, 70's & 80's for 2 weeks! Good news is the farmers are done with the beans, and are starting to pick the corn. Weather is supossed to cool down next week.. Hopefully cool weather for the end of october when rut signs start to show up.
  8. 8 isn't a big spread, but if you are in the right location you should be ok.. Try adding some movement, flagging really can make the difference sometimes.. I made my own fags, just stapled some black material on a 1x2 piece of wood. The material is about 2ft sq - when the geese are at a distance, try slowly waving the flag while calling. I really believe adding the motion makes a BIG difference.. Main thing, keep scouting, make sure you are where they want to be,

    Son left home

    This morning I drove my son to the airport. He graduated in June. He is going to Virginia for about 12 weeks of discipleship training. In early December he will be flying to Angloa Africa on a mission trip. I am SO proud of him - but is sure is sad to see my first head off on his own:( Please include him in your thoughts / prayers for a safe, meaningful mission trip!
  10. A few weeks left until our season opens, and I am thinking about changing broadheads for deer. I have used Rocky Mtn premiers for a few years & would like to try something different.. I am currently using 100 gr heads. My archery shop had a close out of some 125 gr Snypers, I got 2 packs for $18. I have always like the Steelhead expandables & am considering these.. Has anyone used either???? Thoughts?? I have tried shooting 125 field tips in place of 100 gr & didn't notice much difference to 35 yards, so that shouldn't be an issue.. Any input would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks
  11. I love shooting a 20 for pheasants. The only difference is pattern density, so be a bit more selective on the longer shots & he will do just fine..
  12. According to the UPS site it will be about $8-9 - If you want them & want to split the shipping, I will send them for $30 total..

I really think that the waders will fit someone that size, my son was in the 5ft to 5'5" range when he wore them - his feet grew, so that is what made us buy new ones.. I can ship..
  14. Youth Cabelas Neostrech Waders Size 9 My son wore these 1 weekend for 2 seasons. They are in good shape, no leaks. $25 plus shipping TYD.
