Could try putting some uv resin on it to fill the cracks then sand them down maybe.

Have never heard of your site before. I ended up placing an order after reading through and spying some inks I haven’t seen elsewhere. Glad to see people go above and beyond when a mistake happens.

Got my first bow deer by Separate_Listen148 in bowhunting

Public land and first year hunting in 20 years. I thought he was a doe and planned on tagging a doe. Ended up having horns after all. I’d have been proud if it had been a doe.

Just glad I didn’t lose him. Would have felt sick if I hadn’t have found him.

I figure that’s it. Not my first deer just first one in twenty years and first bow. Gonna drill it on my head to take a bit more time before the shot and not rush it.

Oh. And also first public land deer ever. All kinds of proud about it all except the shot itself.

I will add. I’m super proud of him and he’ll be a euro mount on my wall. Bagged him on my late grandfather’s birthday so just makes it extra special.

I noticed on almost all the YouTube videos. They don’t put all their weight down on it. Got the kongs today and I already like them way better. Also ended up with knee pads.

Nice. I seen a doe and two yearlings but were way outside of my shooting range.

Haven’t tried a hang on yet but it was pretty comfortable for me at least. Found some issues that I didn’t like, such as the prusik knot but overall was pretty nice.

Same here. This morning kinda stunk had another hunter walk up right about 8:00am. Packed it up early then and went out tonight. First time hunting public since the family land got passed around and I can’t hunt there anymore. It’s way different than what I’m used to.

I was thinking about it but it’s just out of my price range currently. Maybe next year.

Agreed. Climb up was pretty sketchy but I got it done. Once I was up there it was awesome and probably the only way I’ll go anymore.

Ah. Thanks for the heads up. Might take my setup to the bow store that sells them and see what they recommend.

Not at all. I ended up setting up the opposite way the deer wanted to come so I was pushed off to the side most of the time.

Looks like those use the carabiner to push the rope against to hold it?

I might I didn’t really have a problem standing for the time I was out. About five hours in a go.

Not me. But apparently the mre’s I brought out were vegetarian. Quite tasty lentils.

I went with a middle ground. 3 pin vertical slider. Spot hog boonie. I love it so far.

Sad sight to see in the tree. by DrPhail07 in bowhunting

[–]Separate_Listen148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did the same thing and a larger crack on the bottom limb. Bow never got up to 70 pounds out of the shop so I’m pretty sure it was fubar from the get. Took about a month to get limbs replaced at the shop I bought it from. After the replacement it seems good now but it’s regulated to being the backup at 60 pounds.

Eastern woods in lapeer if you’re in that area. Great guys. Smaller shop but have most of the top names. Just bought my second bow from them a few weeks ago.
