would there be time for some world record bighead action? 
Just to put things into perspective - last year i hunted 38 times and saw bucks 5 different times and only 1 was more than a 4 point. The year before i hunted 49 times and only saw bucks twice (both 4 points). Those were by far my 2 worst years of hunting (even though I took 6 does). The 3 years before that I got 8 pointers. I'm hoping this year is different!
So, what I'm really saying is you guys that see a lot of bucks are REALLY lucky!!

RE: Official Team 36 Thread.
So what kind of bow does everyone shoot? Have we got any die hard Bowtech or Mathews guys in here?
I supporting a PSE Baby-G, I've had it for about three years and had the same model PSE three years before that (someone broke in and stole it while I was at college)
Any traditional archers on the team as well? I'm picking up the recurve to shoot at something other than fish this year. The goal is a doe with traditional equipment
