    Hello All,

    I'm a brand new crossbow hunter from Central PA. I hunted all my life with a .270 and a 30-30, so I'm excited to get out this season and experience an entirely new type of hunt. I have a brand new Wicked Ridge, and after extensive research I settled on the G5 MegaMeat broadheads. I'll be hunting out of a tree stand to start out. Any advice and/or trade secrets that can help get me started would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks, and happy hunting!

    Dizzy

    Two things. Since you're a CB hunter, which I am as well, some may not consider you an "archer" :biggrin: On a more serious note, the very best advice I can give you is ALWAYS wear a safety harness while hunting from a tree stand!! Best of luck to you this season.

    Thanks for the advice! My father in law and I have been making sure all of the stands have a dedicated lifeline this year. Saves the hassle of trying to buckle in when you get to the top.
