    So today i got out my bow and it was shooting really strange. And this is my first yr so i dont know much about tuning bows. But my arrows were flying like sideways almost. So i went to the pro shop and i put a different rest on my bow so it was shooting alot different. And he adjusted the nock so all should be well now. And i picked up a Yellow Jacket target since the foam one i first bought got chewed up pretty fast. And i got permission to hunt on public land! So im excited for this year. Hopefully i get my first buck!

    Good Luck!! But next time don't ask to hunt on Public Land. It gives you a bigger adrenalin rush that way!

    Who exactly did you ask? And what would you have done if they said "NO"?

    No offense intended, but your post made me think of this: http://youtu.be/K7luMp6lb9M

    Good luck to you this fall, hopefully you get to put some venison in the freezer.

    Good luck out there. Make sure to practice safe and ethical hunting and give a big one a dirt nap :)
