  1. I've shot nothing but 100 gr. Thunderheads for 25 years...see no reason to switch.
  2. set the ground blind up today off a food plot.had been walking around and around trimming shooting holes for 30 minutes and just happened to look down and a 3 ft. timber rattler was less than six inches from my left foot. killed it with a machete. riding 4-wheeler back to camp and ran over a copperhead about 4 ft. and he suffered the same fate as the rattler. i hate 'em!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  3. also the fact that bow season gives me 6 weeks of solitude before the gun hunters show up. our club has 1100 acres and 10 members, of which only two bowhunt. the other bowman owns a transmission repair business, so most days i have the entire place to myself....SWEET!
  4. i think i'd hang in the timber
  5. after reading all the posts, i feel a little stupid. i wear t-shirts and shorts when i hunt in my blind....no head net, no gloves. i do use the mesh. killed two does last year and one the year before out of the blind. maybe i just have dumb deer. i do brush it in very well. t-shirt, shorts and thermacell. seems to work for me.
  6. i shoot from 20 yds. first and then back up to 30. i usually shoot 2 sets of 9 arrows from each spot. every other day i get into a stand in the back yard and shoot broadheads. once the season gets closer, i shoot one arrow every morning before i leave for work...helps my psychic doing that.
  7. i have the same climber plus three api climbers. i always attach to straight trees with no knots or limbs. i put on the safety harness after i reach desired height while sitting facing the tree and before i stand up. i do use the footrest. i leave the pull-up rope attached to the stand. i generally climb between 20-25 feet.
  8. i love it when there's not as many acorns. i love to scout and find those trees that are producing and hang a stand. it usually works for me.
  9. pse firestorm lite for climbing stands hoyt vectrix for ladders and basket stands shoot GT 5575 with 100 gr. thunderheads
  10. they don't have any katera, but several vectrix, vectrix xl, and a couple of vulcan hoyts that are brand new from 07 are being sold at half price at a sporting goods store here. they are no longer a hoyt dealer and are trying to get rid of them. i had issues with hoyt because they refuse to honor warranty since the store is no longer a dealer....to me that shouldn't matter. the warranty should cover the bow and not necessarily the store. i could understand that if a bow was bought off ebay or whatever.
  11. i have joined the hoyt community after several years with pse. found a brand new 07 vectrix on a close out for $350. couldn't pass it up. shoots really well!
