    Grilled up the tenderloins tonight. Put some Memphis BBQ dry rub on them Wednesday. 5 minutes a side medium high heat, came out perfect. Very tasty. Can't say I noticed any difference between antelope and whitetail but my palate isn't very sophisticated.
    I put the GF to work last night and had her help me get the rest of the meat cut up and ground up. Hopefully get her second deer this season and first with a crossbow.

    You guys want to hear a sad story. We moved in with my mom until we figure out where we are going to buy/build a new house. Long story short my deep freezer that is in my moms pole barn got unplugged..... I'm sick

    That sucks sorry to hear. I had a similar experience lately. We recently changed internet providers and had them move the modem/router upstairs and out of the basement. Somehow during the change/move the chest freezer in the basement got unplugged... We didn't lose much but I really hate seeing food go to waste.

    What broadheads you fellas shooting this year? I'm shooting the Wasp Jak-knife this year. This will be my first year shooting these. Last year I shot the NAP Spitfires maxx. They preformed very well, but i'm bucking the system and i'm not paying over 40 bucks for broadheads anymore.

    I have several brands I could choose from that include QAD Exodus, Slicktrick Magnum, Grim Reaper Hades, and NAP Thunderheads. I intend to go with the QAD.

    I've used slicktrick magnums for the last probably 10 years. When they give me a reason to switch I will. I will play around with accessories but when it comes to the meat and potatoes I leave well enough alone.

    Shot the 2 and three blade shwackers the last couple years. They performed great for me. I made the switch to NAP SPITFIRE XXX this year

    Picked up a new quiver in EV2 (had to match the bow) and some more KillZones last night. I'm on deer number 11 with these things. They truly are a brutal broad head.

    Any of you guys do any self filming? I have dabbled with it a little the last couple seasons. Definitely adds another dimension to the hunt.

    It's a goal of mine to do self filmed hunts but for now I only use my smartphone and a tactacam.

    Good deal, I use a couple GoPros and have a Cannon G40. I just film for me. I don't have the desire, or time to get fancy with it but I appreciate the work that goes into it
