I'm from IL but work for a bow/gun shop in Fenton, MO... You know what kills me... The ammount of guys that come in the day before opening day and need a bow string, sights, rest and a couple arrows so they can hunt the next morning... I know it can be done... But......
On the other hand we had a couple guys come in after the opening morning with nice deer, I'm so ready for Oct. 1st.
