    Lol I didn't realize I didn't need to sign up until I already did. Talked to admin and their team leader.

    How does that work did you just rotate the wheel a bit? I would have thought with the speed difference of the heavier arrow your would at least need to go down one sight tape.

    The hunting dreams have started. We're getting close!

    I wish I could ask to hunt the property we are surveying at work. It has old woods, new growth areas, crp, ponds, and borders an ag field. Probably 50 acres. Looks like the previous hunter hasn't been here in a while...

    Oh, I know who the owner is. We can't ask to hunt because some people might see it as improper use of state time, info, etc...even if I come back and do it on my free time. So all this awesome deer habitat that I work in is a giant tease.

    Well it will be interesting to see what the deer do this year... I thought the farmer was going to throw in a halfass cover crop on the entire 700acre but he decided to try green beans and allllllot of them in early August. No way he is harvesting before season.

    Needless to say I'll be here every night glassing until dark to see

    That seems pretty intriguing to me! All the beans are going to be green in northern Illinois well into October this year still. The bean crop in Illinois isn’t in good shape at all this year. I saw the update today and more than half of the states soy beans are in the fair-very poor range. I’m thinking beans will be up for a while this year.

    So my 20 yard sit from my old setup was off by about 5 yards so I locked the new position in place and rotated the wheel. I also thought that I'd need to change tapes but I shot out to 60 yards and everything was dead nuts on, even my broadheads were good so I guess I lucked out.
