    I signed up on the forum about 10 months ago, but never used it - too many obligations at the time. I completed my education last November, and started working at a hospital this February as an x-ray tech. I enjoy watching the "Bowhunt Or Die" videos.

    Today I began shooting (in earnest) from elevated positions. The importance of remembering to BEND AT THE WAIST can not be over emphasized! Last year I missed 7 deer with my bow due to poor technique.

    My setup includes a bow I purchased in 1982. My main hunting land is a 3-acre section of a 40-acre woodlot. Free by permission, I make sure to return the favor every year by sharing meat with the landowner. Earlier this summer I spent 4 hours bailing hay as well. I have 2 small ambush food plots planted in fall annual blends from competing suppliers. That about sums it up folks.:wave:
