    I spent Easter Weekend back home in Virginia and took advantage of the warm weather and got out and shot my Z7x!

    Here's the video

    It's my first editing experience, so be easy on me!

    Thanks!

    In regards to the Apache, I honestly don't. It is deadly silent and extremely forgiving and the tool-less adjustment is a lifesaver. It's going to be on my rig for a long, long time. Or, until NAP makes something better!

    Yeah, the deer on the farm the video was shot haven't been hunted for 15 years or so, so they don't really have a fear of humans. We were in between their bedding area and food source, and she must have figured I would just let her pass. Unfortunately, I only have permission to shoot photos and video on this farm.. for now

    I just moved from Virginia to North Carolina and didn't take my bow with me on my first trip down. There aren't too many places in Durham, North Carolina to shoot a bow unfortunately.:bash:

    Cody, the first smells of spring in the form of jasmin and magnolia flowers makes me really start thinking of bowhunting. It is just the beginning of an increasing desire to be in the deer woods.
