I posted these pictures 2 years ago and never got an opportunity at this deer. I placed a camera back on this property yesterday and am hoping he or some of his offspring are still in the area. Was this deer in his prime at this point, or if he is still alive is he possibly a much better quality buck?

~25, I practice 60-80 but don't feel with my shooting ability anything over 40 is remotely ethical.

I still shoot rockets. Last year and this year until they are gone, I have some 10+ year old 4 blace Rocket Hammerheads and they are in my opinion the best broadhead ever made. When they are gone, I have several packs of the new 3 blade Trophy Ridge Rocket Hammerheads to shoot. Excellent broadheads.

That's a steal on that bow! I have 2 2009 Bear Truth 2's that are the same limb and cam design with a different deflection and riser length. It is one of the smoothest bows, and for $199.99?? You cannot beat it. It's very easy to work on, and if you need any DL modules for that bow, let me know.

Congrats on the New Bow. Bear bows are very under appreciated and have came along way. These bows are very easy to tune and shoot great!!

I won't take a bow in the woods to hunt unless it has a biscuit on it!! Excellent rest that is "Fail-Proof"!! Target shooting is a slightly different subject.

Hunting Setup: Bear Truth 2 in Realtree AP Camo, Sure Shot Pro whisker biscuit, Tru Glo bright sight xtreme tooless sight,11.5" Archery+Stabilizer, Gold Tip Pro Hunter 5575, and ROCKET Broadheads Target Set Up: Bear Truth 2 DarkHorse (Black), Trophy Ridge Tack Driver, Viper 5 .010 Pin Sight, 28" Doinker Carbon Elite, Gold Tip Pro Hunter 5575.

I've shot Winner's Choice for the past 2 years. Great strings!! I'm trying a Little Jon BowString out of Ohio on my Girlfriend's bow now. They appear to be great/solid strings for a 3rd of the price.

Of the bows on your list the PSE Rally is awesome! It has more adjustability than the Razor Edge and shoots great. Looking at the bear line I would look at the Homewrecker or an older Truth 2 ultra light. If any way possible shoot all options and choose what feels the most comfortable to you to shoot.

Shooting BowHunter Novice (max 30 yards) I use a pair of $15 Bushnell 10 X 25 and can see all scoring rings with no problem. Shooting open class I can see using a better pair, but I haven't had a problem yet. On most targets with a replaceable vital where you can see center 10 and have a good idea where the lower 12 is, there are some targets that I don't use them on at all.

I would check to make sure that the range finder is completely shutting off. I could see if the auto shut off function failed, the batteries would die quickly. If that wasn't the issue, I would contact the manufacture as well.

I'm looking for the most accurate arrow for hunting/3d that wont break the bank. Both arrows look great, but the ICS is +/-.001, and the Blue Streaks are +/- .0025. I know a lot of people who shoot the Blue Streaks and wont shoot anything else, but I was wandering if the straightness would have a big impact and make the ICS the more accurate arrow. Right now I shoot the CX Mayhems and just want some sort of upgrade before 3d season. Thanks.

I recently picked up a late 50's early 60's Ben Pearson 45# 709 Hunter recurve. I have gotten good enough to hit vitals on 3d targets at 20 yards shooting completely traditional (It's very different with no sights and coming off of the shelf). I shoot Rockets out of my compound, but what broadheads are the recurve shooters shooting to get the most penetration?

I have nothing but good things to say about Bear Archery and the people that work for them. I don't know what I was trying to say in the origional post, but that is the 2nd squirrel in a week at 30 yards and the 3rd total that I have killed with the bow.

This is the 2nd squirrel I've shot with at 30 yards with the Truth 2, and I thought these pictures looked interesting.
