Default I have one hour.... help me out here.

I get off work in one hour. My wife is going with me to get my birthday present (one month early, so don't over-react). I've narrowed my choices down to these two:

1. Thompson Center Pro Hunter 50 caliber black powder AND a .300 Winchester barrel and forearm...

- OR -

2. Decked out Bowtech 82nd Airborne(only as a back-up bow to the Drenalin, of course)

Okay, this is only one half bowhunting related, but that should count. I honestly don't know which way to go here. I love having these kinds of decisions to make, but they're hard. Any suggestions?

I'd go with the T/C...

1) You have a good bow...

2) You can't shoot both at one time...

3) I love to muzzle load hunt as well...

If I was a gun hunter I'd have to choose the T/C.

Use them man parts or loose'm.

How can you pick a TC and a Bowtec? The reason you picked a BT over a Mathews should be the same reason you wouldn't pick a TC.

TC's are for groupies, people who needan identity. Get a Knight!
