  1. I'm a bit on the to heavy side to try to climb that one!
  2. What the heck? I spent 2 hours laying out stairs and no pictures of me. I see how you roll now!
  3. I really have no idea how we would get my Timberlodge that high in the air.
  4. Good lesson for the boy. I'm glad you do not have a short fuse like I have started to develop over the last few years.
  5. I have also beat scopes and long stabilizers many times over. I also agree all well tuned bows shoot good. Now lets look at a 3-D situation. I pull up, see my target, estimate my range at 38 yards and release. Bang! A perfect x ring,could not be happier. Joe Blow walks up with his new Monster calls a 32 yard shot and cuts the x ring. Guess what you have just been beat by a bow not a shooter. It happens every day. A perfect estimate on yardage and a perfect shot with a Bear Whitetail can be matched by a sloppy distance estimator and a 360 fps bow. Same goes for hunting. If I shoot at a deer with my Drenalin at 30 yards and the deer is 35 yds away I'm still going to kill it. Is the same true for my old Bear Whitetail? Nothing against Bear Whitetail it was my first compound bow years ago. Besides why should anyone care what I or anyone else does with our money. Some trade cars,trucks,boats motorcycles,sleds,guns the list goes on. I'd like to add bows to this list.
  6. I'm one of those people that like to trade every few years. I and many others do this for a few reasons. I am into bows! I love bows! I shoot a lot, maybe too much! I shoot 3-D, indoor 5 spot and hunt with my bow at least 20 days per year. If you want to compete with the new equipment every year you need the newest toys on the market. Some out there may think I'm nuts but others who compete know this is true. I have been beat by equipment on several occasions not the shooter. If all I did was hunt I would still be happy with my 10 year old Mathews. Besides I like to stimulate the economy!
  7. Impressed I was not! I'm old school I guess. I made some good changes so everyone says.
  8. I still love the ol' finger nail painting while someone is sleeping.
