    I bought a press a few months ago and recently got a draw board for it. My BIL is also into archery and we split the cost of them.
    My Solution is due for a new string set, will be tearing into that here in the next week. Very much looking forward to doing all the setup myself.

    With all the rain we've had this year I'm very concerned about the mosquitoes as well. The property I hunt in Indiana has several swamps and usually has an adequate amount of them blood suckers. Last year, amazingly enough, there were very few. But I fully expect them to make up for it this year. I haven't been up there yet but I'm probably gonna put cameras out next week.

    I stashed my cheap Kayak out deep on public maybe 4 weeks ago..I haven't been able to get to it bc of flooding and high waters. I really hope it didn't wash away!

    Haven’t posted on here lately usually active mainly during contest but this year’s turkey season was a tough one but got it done the day before season went out. I ended up calling in two toms and they only got to 30 yards and i forgot to adjust my single pin and shot and hit him right by the spurr. He then pushed a hen off and thought it was over. Hour and a half went by and I see a tom making his way back to me where he pushed a hen off. It was the one i shot in the leg. He only came into 40 yards this time and i had my .410 with me also so i grabbed it and shot it and dropped him right where he stood. Crazy that he came back out a hour and half later. Wish i would have gotten him with my bow but still blessed to be able to get a second chance at him and make it count! IMG_1118.JPG IMG_1115.JPG IMG_1111.JPG
