Would appreciate any input regarding the quality of product and personal experience with the performance of Grove' s takedowns ...especially the Magnum III, and customer service.

No personal experience C903, but I have read a review by Emory L. (Bow and Arrow Hunting), and have also read comments on forums. They are pretty expensive (what isn' t?), but all comments have been positive. You might be able to get more info over on the Leatherwall (Bowsite) or on Archerytalk.com traditional forum. Good luck with your search.

BTW, how is your hunting season going?

Joe:

Thanks for info on bow.

Hunting this season has been tough. Two hunting buds and I hunt a very tough area. In the county we are hunting, the first month is buck only. And, as you know, in October the bucks of size are not moving until sundown and dark and are in morning beds very early while still low-light. Passed on some does because season was early.

3 idiots, and I mean real idiots, have obtained permission to hunt nearby and they are screwing up everything. Also, in another bordering area, 4 young guys are still learning the ropes and are screwing things up somewhat. By the time the rut was about to come in, the 4 day gun season kicked in. Need I tell you what that did to the area. Nephew heard 30 shots within one hour.

Went out last week and weekend, when bow kicked back in. Deer staying in heavy brush during daylight...almost belly crawling.

Friend had one sighting but too far for shot. Now, last 4 day gun season kicks in again.

Still have time.
