    Did not get the chance to pull the chip before I left again but I did get the fence up. The deer are feeding on acorns like crazy, they are not hammering the apples yet.

    So I got the new bow dialed in pretty good. However my ramcats hit the riser when I went to shot one, also they don't really fit into my mathews quiver. So for the sake of keeping my quiver and not extending my arrows Im in the market for some new broadheads. I don't care about fixed or mechanical I really am only concerned with accuracy, say out to 50 yards, not that I have ever shot that far at an animal or intend to but I want them to fly well. What are you guys shooting? Only broadhead I've ever really shot other then the ramcat are the kill zone and they were ok.

    Mike thats a great buck. I don't think he makes 150" but he sure would look good on the ground.

    Bubby check out the muzzy hybrid trocar. Mechanical with no blade retention system, deployment is foolproof and the secondary blade is awesome. Fly great and makes deer bleed.

    Nice bucks all. Biggest concern this year has nothing to do with deer. Well kind of. My girlfriend has no idea I hunt and she HATES it. And I am gone all the time during the season so I'm not sure how I'm gonna work my way around all this time that I'm hunting. This season will be nothing short of interesting.

    Funny old world isn't it. I wish I had some words of wisdom to impart on you bro but I don't. I'm perpetually single and am the worst in the world to give any sort of advice in that arena. All I know is that I grew up a hunter and it's part of me, there's no way I could keep up a relationship and I don't care if she's Shania damn Twain in her prime (and that's saying something for me) if she was hard core anti-hunting and couldn't see her way to deal with it as part of who I am. I wouldn't hide it or try to keep secrets like that, which would be impossible anyway. For me personally I'd take that issue head on and let the chips fall where they may. I'm not saying that's what you should do or whatever, just how I would feel about it. I'd figure she either accepts me for me or she don't. I'd figure, better off finding out now than later.

    I hope it all works out for you, truly.

    Thank you, this is honestly such great advice and I've been struggling with it for quite a while. You make very valid points and I keep telling myself that stuff but sometimes that's easier said than done. The way I look at is that in all likelihood we aren't getting married (at least not anytime soon). It's just a simple relationship, however if push came to shove, I'm not going to stop doing the thing that I am most passionate about. I've let it go farther than I anticipated. It's funny the effect they can have. Stupid almost. Hey what do I know. Rant over, let's kill some deer already!

    Ha, well...those situations have a way of taking turns we can never predict or control. I was almost married my Sr. Year of HS, fate found a way to stop that from happening and in hindsight...I'm very thankful. Marriage was the furthest thing from my mind when that relationship started and probably would have ruined my life knowing now what I do about the gf.

    I try to have faith now that things will always work out for the best however it turns out.
