    Built a frame from pvc to do some paper tuning at home. Bow is really feeling good.
    Think I’ve already said it but the thinner focus grip really takes some of the hand contact away.

    has anyone been looking at the scorecard page? i hope it's just bad judging on my part but either the bucks look much smaller than the score or the one 145" buck was measured wrong? it looks a ton bigger than the other bucks with similar scores. i am more questioning the smaller ones. probably just my eyes are getting bad! lol

    Pretty damn good timing. I had a couple buddies get their eyes done and they said it was the best thing they ever did.

    The 129" was saved by velvet mass and the 140" looks a good 5-10" smaller than it scored out.

    Was doing my interview a little bit ago and had a coyote at 43 yards. Probably should have taken the shot. If he comes back I'll be ready!

    It’s a mystery every year! As long as our group put up legitimate numbers, that’s all I’m worried about! Checked my food plots today after work. LUSH. Hopefully the hard work pays off with an opportunity at a mature buck.

    Shot one tonight. Shot was terrible guys I'm sorry. Going back out in a few hours to look for him. Don't think my shot is goi g to kill him. Great buck came out at last light and was destroying a hedge apple tree right under my tree. Knocking hedge apples off left and right and eating them.

    I meeped at him, but the video shows he was still walking. I either jerked the shot or held where I was and didn't adjust for the steps he took. Looks like back leg buttox. I can't believe I messed it up that bad. Didn't find much of any blood. Feel terrible and don't know what else to say. I messed it up...

    It happens. Just hope that he is dead or shook it off and you can kill him later.
