No Bow Tech, that isn't a silly question. I could see someone forgetting that but I've been using one for years, with success I might add. Success meaning I have gotten deer to respond, no killsyet.
It's the weight moving around inside that accounts for the noise I'm referring to. I was thinking of putting a straw in the hole so it just sticks out a tiny bit, then taping it. This may keep that weight in place until I need to use it.[8D]
I killed my first deer with one when they were new. that 6 pointer came running. almost ran me over. I shot him with a 12 gauge slug at about 3-5 yards right broad sidein the killer zone and he still ran about 50-70 yards and I got him with some buckshot
when my dad walked up I was still standing there
( I was like 250 yards from the house, he was havein' coffee, heard me shoot 5 times( I hit him at least twice maybe 3), put his shoes on and walked out there.)
Long story short he thought I had missed and was giving me an ear full when we stumbled over him. I thoughthehad runcloser too me but apperantly I have no deapth perception after shooting a deer
.
Anyway I know what noise you are talking about, those of you that don't shake your can and youll hear it. I wanna try that "e-can"
