Paleo, that’s beautiful. Sums it up nicely. Sometimes even when there are deer nearby, I’m really happy to just watch. I only get anxious about not killing a deer or two when I’m staring into an empty freezer! I think I enjoy the off season of getting ready for deer season just as much, if not more. The birds of spring, stretching the arrows further, looking for firewood and deciding where that perfect stand is going to be for the fall. Nice post, dwc

R2, that’s the easy part. Just put the branch right on the spot you want to hit and arrow with sail right over it, unless it’s only inches away, then it’s too close anyway. dwc

Hi Robbin,

I enjoy watching George Stout’s videos and thought you might find these somewhat relevant at least. If you have the time you might enjoy them as well. George practices at longer ranges to tighten up his groups at hunting ranges. I think this is good practice, perhaps better after you do your blank bale work, but good to put in the mix at some point.

Thumbs up for Alex and Colmike. I’m not an elk hunter but I’ve read the reports and used Troy Breeding’s tuning process. While some might argue it’s over kill for the whitetail I hunt and the stumps I shoot don’t overlook the benefits of flight with the high FOC arrow. They buck the breeze and twigs much better in my opinion and that’s also important along with penetration. The whole idea is to create a setup that goes beyond good enough for the right or normal conditions. Since I have so little experience, I decided to build the best arrow I could to help make up for my lacking. So far, so good. All the best to you! Dwc

Alex, what a great hunt! Getting that close to turkeys is definitely a successful hunt.

John, five weeks at the cabin sounds like good medicine. Enjoy the hat time. I look forward to seeing the photos.

Best , dwc

Maybe R2 can put a sun dial on his riser?? Might be tough for those early morning hunts, but it sure would be trad. dwc
