    Hi ya'll . I just recently received a bow from a buddy of mine to get me started in bowhunting. Ive mostly just been into duckhunting. He gave me a late 90's Matthews SoloCam. Needs some updating and TLC. I signed up on here to learn some new things and meet some fellow hunters so hope to see everyone around. -Pat

    Welcome to the site and Bowhunting is not only addicting but will probably be the most frustrating thing for you starting out. I know it was for me but when you finally get your shot and you get that deer it is so much more rewarding. My word of advice for you is to 1. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and 2. Keep your head up no matter what happens whether you lose a deer or miss it will all work out for ya
