Thwack, I noticed on another thread you use mech broadheads and only pull 53 pounds.Did you know that under what many companies consider the minumum for mechs.What is your KE on your set up.

In the near future I’m afraid my son will ask me ”Dad why is it we can’t hunt anymore?” Well Son I tell you why. Because we couldn’t decide whom the “Real Hunters” were. The hunters we did ourselves in. The traditional guys told the compound shooters they weren’t “real hunters” they needed training wheels and sights. The Compound hunters told the Trads. you shouldn’t be allowed to hunt. You shoot your arrows all over the place and wound more then you kill. We argued about it until we were blue in the face and the wedge was being driven in. All that we could decide was Crossbow hunters just don’t fit in. Their not “real hunters.” their Bows are always cocked that takes no skill of grace. Who do they think their fooling we can’t let them in. We need to keep hunting to the “Real Hunters” is what we said, and the wedge just kept getting pounded in.

Before you knew it we hunters were fighting all over the place. ”REAL HUNTERS” don’t use rifles, range finders or hunt over bait! They don’t use scents, or run deer with dogs or use drives no “real Hunter” would resort to that. They never go on guided hunts or take a long shot at game. WE decided that “real hunters” don’t wear scent loc suits or high tech camo or ride an ATV into their tree stands. We decided that high fences, ranches and leasing land were in no way connected to “REAL HUNTING” we decided that shouldn’t take place .The wedge was all the way in.

After the smoke had cleared and “WE” helped pass laws to Ban every type of hunting that wasn’t “REAL HUNTING”, we realized there was no more hunting at all. We got what we asked for we have no one but ourselves to blame.

Be careful what you ask for,you just might get it

I drive woods with some very good hunters.A couple of these guys have killed more big bucks with the bow,then I have even seen.We use drives late season as a tool.It's very effective especially for taking does out,which is what we shoot 90% of the time.Our buck tags are usually filled by then.It sounds like you were around a group of jerks,why you would stay in a tree with that much lead flying around confuses me.
