    This is my first year to use them but I'm excited about them. I like that there are no bands or orings. I really like the thickness of the blades. It was between these and swhacker but I like the idea of rear deploying blades over blades that flip out. Hope to put a big hole in a buck this year, but I will carry one of my fixed from last year for coyote or other small game.

    If I had a wonky I'd put him down for sure then put him up on the wall

    Well, Wonky is appropriately named. That's one funky rack.

    I have come to the conclusion that he was hit by a vehicle last year. His left hind leg is always locked in the exact same position, walking or standing.

    What do you guys think? If you had those three deer coming everyday, would you shoot Wonky if he came by on opening day? That question is haunting me lately.

    I guess that depends. How many bucks can you tag? If I were hunting in a one buck state and I had those three coming every day then I wouldn't shoot Wonky on the first day.

    I don't hunt in a one buck state though, and if Wonky walked by me here I'd take the shot without even thinking about it. I'd know that I could hunt the others later.

    I'd probably hold out for trident early on, but if wonky came by once I had given trident a good effort, I'd probably smoke him.

    I live in a one buck state, so it's one or the other. I would really like to kill Trident, but I don't know if I have enough self control not to kill Wonky if he walks by. We'll see I guess :lol:

    Either way you kill a great buck! I've got to admit that Wonky would look awesome hanging on the wall.

    I don't, but that's because I don't use trail cameras. I don't have a single one.

    I have 2 cams out but haven't had the urge to go check them. I find it hard to get into the whole game camera thing.

    I have had nothing but does and fawns in my plot but same thing happened last year too. When October came I had a bunch of shooters on film. They rarely showed themselves in day light tho. Here's a few from last year that will be even better this year.

    Very nice! I'll bet you were happy. It's kind of hard to tell with the glare but it looks like you've got a serious face on. I'd have an ear to ear grin on my face!
