Season opens here in N.C. (Surry Co.) this Saturday. It's been so hot and dry it's been hard to get fired up about it.

I'd rather bow hunt than gun hunt.

You got a big-un staked out?

Craig good post! Yepper I'm getting ready, can't wait my favorite time of the year! I like bow hunting more than gun hunting anyday. Got more than one bign staked out, saw three gooduns
while scouting off of my horse the other day. That new Diamond Black Ice can't get here quick enough!!!!

Just bought me a new bow for the season. Set it up today and shot awhile. Man these new bows are awesome. Never thought I would be able to shoot the first pin from zero to thirty yards. The new Reflex line is something else. I bought the Growler. It is I.B.O. rated at 303. Tweaked and tuned a little and have it shooting around 312 with a 24" arrow. Our season opens the 15th of October. Already have a big Ol'Mack Daddy picked out. He loves the C'mere deer.

Happy hunting and good luck.

My brother has been fired up about it since about April and came up tonight to shoot. Man you could tell who had been shooting the most!!LOL!! I do love it though...always see a bunch of deer that time of the year.

Where is the best place to get info on bows? My daughter got to shoot a bow for the first time a few days ago at the fair and that is all I have heard about since! LOL. I have no clue about anything dealing with them and would really like to know what I can before I buy her one. I did ask the guy showing her and he said she was shooting a compound, left handed.???? Any in put is welcomed. Sandi

Sandi you might try going to Archerytalk.com and reading on there and ask alot of questions they will help you out there. Then the next step would be to find a pro shop in your area and go shoots some bows that are in your price range. good luck

No acorns around here. Deer should be easy to draw in with bait, if that's what you do.

I shoot a Matthews, and I really like it. It is an older bow, the Q2 series, but it's fast and quiet.

By the way, if you sleep in your stand, your timing has got to be good!

I'M A PSE SHOOTER MYSELF, BUT I WILL SAY THE BLACK ICE BOW BY DIAMOND IS THE REAL DEAL, ALSO THE DREALIAN FROM MATHEWS IS SHARP ALSO, I HAVE TO GO SHOOT THE PSE X FORCE WITH THE 7 " BRACE HEIGHT BEFORE BUYING A NEW ONE. I'M WARMING UP FOR DEER SEASON WITH BOW BY HUNTING BLACK BEAR WITH BOW. I SHOT MY 1ST DEER WITH BOW AT 16 YEARS OLD AND SOLD MY NEW 30-06 A WEEK LATER A HAVEN'T GUN HUNTED SINCE, I'M 33 NOW. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE AND POST SOME PICTURE OF DEER YOU SHOOT REMEBER EVERY DEER SHOT WITH A BOW IS A TROPHY.
