****The Dirt Nap Delivery System - Team 16 Thread****

nsimmons, why did you sign up for the alternate list if you are already on a team?

 

I never signed up for the regular list I signed up for the alternate and the same day I was put on the team.

 

I gotcha.

 

Anyone shooting today?

I've got a list of chores to knock out today. I'll more than likely wash some clothes. What do you guys do to keep your clothes freshly descented after a wash?

 

I wash em in dead down wind and keep everything in sterilite plastic containers. Sometimes I'll cut small branches around the area I hunt to throw in the containers

I usually practice 4-6 days a week shooting. Most of the days it practicing at 50, 60, 70 but one or 2 days I will shoot a 3 spot Vegas for 20 and 30 yard accuracy. Key is knowing when to stop. If my first arrow starting at 70 is dead money I will shoot the last 2 than move to 60 and if there is a repeat group at 60 than move to 50 than if I'm money I'm done. But other days if I'm wanting to step it back to 80 or 90 I will be out there a little longer practicing to try and push a little farther. I am blessed enough to be able to strech to 100 yards in my yard. I also have been practicing from sitting on a 5 gallon bucket at 20 and 30 to simulate shooting from my blind. I was my close the first week in August and I put them in a water proof, air tight welder case I got from my girlfriends dad. It is the best thing I have ever got since it keeps everything scent free. I spray a little dead down wind like gutpile does and leave them in there with 3 pairs of socks and 3 towel and 3 pairs of boxers so I'm prepared for 3 hunts. I also just ordered a pack of Dirt Nap Gear DRT Deep 6 broadheads since I went with new arrows in the spring, Easton Injexion's, and needed broadheads for them. I'm so glad I swapped to new arrows but getting them set up gets expensive! Once they come in I will make sure they shoot money, which if they shot like my old set up they should right out of the box, than I will be good to go. What broadheads are you guys using this year? Actually scratch that what's your guys sets up for this year, I know everyone loves talking about them haha. Mine is as follows
Hoyt Maxxis 35 set at 29/58
QAD HDX rest
Black gold target sight base, all the way out, with HHA .019 mechanical rheostat scope
Easton Injexion 400 arrows at 29inches with DRT broadheads
Trufire hardcore maxx release
Truglo tru tech 8inch carbon stabilizer.

Ok. I've spent the last couple of days looking at the maps and am still trying to decide on where to go. I know that I have a quality spot, but am not sure how hunted it's been since opening weekend. The number of encounters was lower from the first weekend to the second one, but I'm not sure if that had anything to do with the change in tactics (road hunting vs water hole). I'm also cruising the internet trying to figure out how to mount my bow (or bow case) to the wheeler for next weekend's hunt. I'd like to minimize the wind damage on the strings.

 

Here's my bow case strapped onto the front of the wheeler. I cut two small slits in the bottom and ran a ratchet strap through. It holds pretty good.

I shoot a 2006 Bowtech Allegiance. Limb driver rest, Copper John sights, Posten Slim Jimz stabilizer and Gold Tip CAA arrows.

 

Anyone shoot today? I worked on the deck for most of the afternoon after dropping the kids off for the first day of school.

 

Nope had a busy day at work. I'll put in for the alternate tomorrow.
