I have always wanted to get into bow hunting and I finally pulled the trigger and ordered myself a bow.

I purchased a Hoyt Extreme 32 with all the bells and whistles.

I have never shot a bow until today....these were shots 11 through 15 at 20yds......I must say that I can see this becoming an addiction!!!

That's a very nice setup by the way!

Bluechip 03-14-2012 04:14 PM

I got some small game broad heads....I have a few raccoons that still manage to get in my trash can even with the lib strapped down. A little more practice and I will make a few late evening hunts in the driveway lol....

Yes, his is pink. His wife said if he bought one it had to be pink. He has been looking for some pink scentlok clothing but is having problems. Lol....

Willie told us he grew up wearing hand me downs but all he had was sisters.....true statement. Ask him about it tomorrow on the domino people.

Top Dawg 03-14-2012 10:00 PM

Haha for sure. I'll use that right after I whip him again this week.

What that thing run ya? I spent an hour last trip to Cabalas looking at crossbows. I think I'd rather that than a standard bow. Folks got thoughts on that?

longsidelandry 03-15-2012 08:37 AM

Dude when you get a shot at your first deer with it, you will be hooked! Just seeing deer while bow hunting is a totally different experience than with a gun IMO. I made up my mind that this coming season I will attempt to bow hunt only now that I've been able to do some good scouting on the lease.

I was the same way til I bought my compound. To me, shooting a crossbow is just shooting a funny looking gun. I say if you can shoot a compound, get a compound.

crossbow is much easier but for me the whole reason i bow hunt is for the thrill and challenge. something about a deer at 20 yds trying to hold back on a bow and not spook it. gets my blood pumping

$1500 for the whole set up that I purchased. I got a Cadillac bow with all the bells and whistles.

But there are much more affordable models, I just bought what I wanted.

No argument on cross bows but I would like to travel to other states for bow hunting where cross bows are not allowed.

Craig, holla if I can help. Been bow hunting 30 or so years. No expert by any means, but o do see deer fairly regularly.

Hope to make a trip to Tensas between Christmas and new years. This is usually the rut there if you or anyone else is interested
