My first year deer hunting i was wearing the required blaze orange vest. I had a doe walk up within three feet of me and stand there stomping til i finally had to breath. Pretty much everything you said here is right on in my book. Someone o. The site said it best one time. Being still is rhe best camo. Dwc

That’s an interesting video. The concept is pretty simple and as he says, after that it’s all in practice. Thanks for posting. Best, dwc

Try the local photo shop. Background paper comes in long cardboad boxes about 5 inches suare and several feet long. Might score something there. Best, dw

Usually the first round is pretty safe. I sent mine in last Friday. Courthouse isn’t open on the weekend so they get the application on Monday. About a third are sold here in 3D. Should be plenty for second round. That’s more tags than I’ve used in a while. Good luck! Dwc

Sometimes I quit while I’m ahead. Today I tagged a piece of dead rhododendron, judo landed right on the dot! What a racket it made when the nock came flying right back at me and the shaft rattled to the ground with the point, adapter and insert firmly sticking out of the dead trunk. Nothing really damaged as I put the aluminum collars fore and aft. That’s my reward for a good shot! Dwc

I am also curious about the wearing on the outside of the shelf. It wouldn’t seem the feather would wear that spot, although I’m using four fletch now, it wore the same with three feathers. Dwc

The best thing I ever did for my feet was to start wearing ragg wool sock, and yes, change as needed or more. I thought the ragg wool would make my feet and ankles itch, but they don’t. I like merino wool, too, but still like the ragg wool for putting on the miles. best of luck with them dogs, dwc

It’s worth a look to be sure. Is the archery a bit fantastic, of course it is. But if these guys shot like me, nobody would watch the movie! dwc

Grumpy,

I hear you. I didn’t bother, but I bet if you replace the cheap nylon rope on your stringer with something made for rock climbing, you would get less stretch and more control and less grumpiness. 😉 dwc

Be careful. You might have a bunch of “birdwatchers ” come clean out your frig. Dwc

Don,

One time I was in central PA sitting on a porch bird watching. The property owner said he didn’t see many birds around his place. In one afternoon we counted about 30 species, including a cuckoo. That was the first and only one I can say I’ve seen. If I’ve seen others, I didn’t know it. Funny thing, I haven’t heard one since I was able to ID it. Before that I heard them here and there around the area. Nice to have a little mystery. best, david
