Re: broadhead ? Go with the muzzys. They're tough, inexpensive, readily available every where, easy to tune, and super easy to change the blades on. I switched last year and love them.

Re: 15 - Team Drop-Tine Nice buck Vtbowhunter. Congrats.

Re: Food Saver Products, Who Has One? i've got some gift cards for bed bath and beyond from our wedding. I think I'm gonna buy one.

Re: NEW WORLD RECORD WHITETAIL TAKEN IN TEXAS!!!!! It must be the TirdyPointer. 8 feet tall and 12000 lbs.

Re: sharp or not? Let me sharpen it. Then you'll know its sharp. I use the hair test.

Re: Woohoo! What an archery season! Congrats. I'm glad you're having a good season.

Re: Team 15 I killed a nice eight pointer this weekend. I'll get some pics posted in a few days or so.

Re: Vacation! Same here. I have one more day of work then I'm off for 12 days. I've got a wedding and some other things going on this weekend so I won't be able to hunt until Monday, but by then the boys should be on the prowl. Good luck and enjoy the vacation.

Re: ez-hangers I stab mine in really hard then screw it in. Never had a problem. Use a little elbow grease.

Re: WTB Rangefinder Thanks. I've been nosing around over there and have some pms sent. I'm currently bidding on a Bushnell yardage pro trophy on ebay and winning at $113.50. But I've still got a day to go.

I'm in the market for an inexpensive rangefinder. I've been looking at the bushnell that cabelas has for around $150. But if anyone has one they'd like to get rid of, I'd like to see them, or at least hear some opinions. I'm also nosing around on ebay.

Re: Hold hands??? [ QUOTE ] Pretty much all the time. I married "up". The Mrs. is waaaaaaay too good looking to be hanging around with me. So, by holding hands, I figure I may be able to convince people she actually is with me. [/ QUOTE ] Atta boy! Hand holder, butt patter, whatever works here.

Re: Prayer Request Please Buckslayer is right. My college days were about the same. Especially the last couple semesters. I borrowed a little more on stuldent loans to live on, which helped some, but then I got a job working nights. It sucked but I had to do it. My whole last semester I worked 40+ hours per week and went to class during the day. I was worn down, crabby, depressed, I lost a ton of weight, but when I got my diploma it was all worth it. I also feel for ya with the kids getting all of pell money. I couldn't get crap either but people a lot better off than me were getting rich off of it. Because they lied on the FAFSA. People told my parents too, but my mom is like the Virgin Mary and would never do that. I'm glad we didn't because FAFSA audited us my first year to make sure we weren't cheating. I don't know why they picked us, I didn't even get any money from them. Hang in.

Re: range finder. [ QUOTE ] Heres cheap, get a measuring tape and measure all your distance from the tree your sitting in. Ohterwise shell out a 100 bucks and get a bushnell yardage pro sport [/ QUOTE ] Where can I get a yardage pro sport for 100? That sounds right in my price range.

Re: Team 15 Nice buck valleycowboy. I couldn't connect this weekend. I had a few chances but things didn't work out. Oh well I'll wait until this weekend and try again.

Re: BUCK OF A LIFETIME!!! 2006 What a monster. I couldn't imagine how you're feeling right now. I can't wait to hear the story. A million congrats.

Re: lab lab [ QUOTE ] Thanks for the feed back guys. I don't have a cage up but there is 80 ac of corn on one side and 2 ac of monster mix on thother. The lab lab is 1ac L shaped. I know that the deer are realy hitting the monster mix hard but the bugs have been a problem with the lab lab. So do you think the lab lab isn't going to produce any peas. Oh I almost forgot I shot an 11 ponter of this plot last evening. He is not huge 130 to 140 but he was narley looking. [/ QUOTE ] WHo cares about the lab lab. I wanna see that Illinois buck.

Re: Headed out Go get em team member.

Re: Team 15 Good luck and be safe VtBowhunter. I'm leaving Thursday for Shawnee Natl forest to bowhunt the weekend. Hopefully we'll put some points on the board.

Re: Tips and Tricks! Get up extra early. This way you can take your time. Rushing makes you forget things and take shortcuts. The extra time allows you to take a slow walk to your spot to avoid working up a sweat. [ QUOTE ] a woman's tampon, the ones with the string, work great for adding scent too and hanging off a limb. Just ask the wife first!!!! [/ QUOTE ] I hear that. last year I used one for that purpose and my fiance (wife now) noticed. She said "Honey, I see you started today" I explained to her what I used it for, thats when she realized what she was getting into.

Re: Skid Yeah I know how you feel. I'm in a three hunt funk without seeing a deer. I hate it. And it seems like the longer it goes one the worse it gets.

Re: wd40 fanclub... WD is definitely the answer to everything. It works great to clean oil and grease off of you hands and shoes too. For a while they had some stuff out called TAL 5. What was up with that? Did they try to improve on WD? Thats unheard of.

Re: More pictures of the stitches!!! Thats pretty nice. Accidents happen but good luck telling that to your company. If I did that at work I would have been fired. Thats how safety conscious the company I work for is.

Re: anybody combining corn yet?? I give it about 2 more weeks till its all gone around me. I'd say most guys are about 1/2 done. There are still stubble beans out that are pretty greentoo, it'll 3 weeks till they're all out.

Re: shafted on public land!!! Don't lie, we know you peed on his tree.
