I'm still shooting my Mathews Switchback XT... As long as it keeps killing, I'll probably keep shooting it.

My kids are getting to hunting age... My daughter shot her first deer this year so I ended up hunting with the rifle a little... Killed my first deer with a rifle since 2005.

I MUCH prefer bow hunting but a lot less tracking with the 7mm-08.

That 7-08 is a killing machine. Easy on the shoulder too. I load a 140 nosler accubond over 41 grns of imr4895. Slayer

I'm about to buy that bow as well. I'm so pumped up about it.

Me too. I think I'm going to go with the stone finish instead of camo.

I'm in... La public land hunter.. Shoot rpm 360 70#

I love the challenge of getting in range of a deer.
Still hunt some with my rifle but on public land if you don't bow hunt, you don't have many days to hunt.

We decided to get into bow hunting for the same reason. We're in a club but were missing out on those extra days for bow hunting. Really enjoy it.

Just ordered my Halon today. Should be in my hands in about two weeks. I'll be sure to post up some pics and give a good review.

Found out yesterday that the halon I ordered is on back order until the end of next month! I could get a camo one today but really want the stone tactical finish. Oh well, I'll just have to be patient but it's killing me!!
