    All I asked for during this Christmas season was Bass Pro gift cards. I expected to get about $300 or so but ended up getting 850! Unbelievable right? Well I am going to Bass Pro shop friday to rack on some gear. Anything in particular that you guys see as a must have? I am a 2cd year bowhunter and do not have a ton of bowhunting gear. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Trail camera(s), stands, calls, decoy, binos, rangefinders, arrows, broad heads, clothes, boots, anything you need.

    Range finder, BHs, arrows, stands, and you could always stock up on the little things like scent killer. $ 850 is a lot I'd be buying myself a .22-250

    You are one lucky guy to get that kind of loot for x-mas.... I got a camo tote bag that i bought and the wife wrapped it and put it under the tree. Glad this is all over.

    Well back to you maybe get yourself a good climbing stand and safety vest.

    That is what I was thinking about. I have stands but most are ladder stands because I used to gun hunt. I was thinking about getting a couple of Muddy treestands. I want a lone wolf, but I dont think Bass Pro Shops have them.

    That is the one thing I thought as a bowhunter is a must. Any suggestions on brand? I was looking on Bass Pro website and found some for under $200. Wonder if they are any count?
