RE: Official Team Bone Collectors Thread (10)
Good luck with that brute, he is a tank for sure!!!! I finally went to Cableas yesterday and returned my Moultrie I60 and was planning on getting a Reconyx RC60 but my sisters wedding wasted my money so I ended up trading it in on a Moutlrie I40, a new Scrape dripper, and a pair of bino's for my fiance. I set the scrape drippers and camera up 17 yards in front of my fiances treestand today and won't be checking it till we hunt that stand. I am really excited about this spot for her and I am praying to the big man up stairs that she has some encounters from this stand!

Hey guys!
I have some good news! I won my first 3D tournament on the 20th! Came out winner in my division (17 and under.) and was 2 points away from first place over allin both divisions, and that included a pro staff for Mathews. I won a muzzleloader and in a 60 yard shoot off I won a $50 gift card also. Beating out the Mathews Pro Staffer by 3/8 of a inch! Best of all it's all on film! I'll post a video as soon as I get it all edited!

RE: Official Team Bone Collectors Thread (10)
thats a heck of a deer titleist.
Congrats to you 8pt.
I got some good news. I was nearly sleeping in my stand last night and i heard footsteps. I turned around and saw a nice 8 pt. about 15" wide, but i was in a double tree and couldnt get my bow between them, so I never got a shot.
While shining tonite, I saw a 17" 8 pointer and a 10 pointer well outside the ears with long tines. I would say a definite 140". I can hunt both places, so I'm pumped.
Hopefully I'll have some more good news soon. Good luck to all you guys.

Hey guys,
I have some bad news... I was out hunting with my dad the other day when 4 does came walking down a path right to me. At40 yards they turned and started walking away from me at a 90 degree angle. (I practiced out to 60 yards all the time and was very confident in my shooting ability...) I waited untilthe biggest doe'shead was behind a tree and fired. I watched my arrow hit the deer and heard a loud thud... The deer then ran off...
I called my dad and told him what happened, he said waita while then we'll start tracking.When we went towhere I shot my doe we didn't find anything... No arrow, no blood, nothing....
Then after 10 minutes of searching my dadfound my arrow 30 yards from where the doe was shot... It was broken in half with the broadhead broken off and the shaft covered in meat/muscle tissue...About 30 yards from the broken arrow we found a faint blood trail which we followed for 3 hours before we lost it...My dad said from how my arrow looked, hethought it was a shoulder shot...[:@]This is my first deer I ever lost and I feel terrible...[:'(]

Unfortunately most bowhunters will experience this same scenario sometime in their hunting career, most more than once. Remember that feeling and it will make you a better hunter.
Our season opened today...and I'm here in the office. I'll get out here in the next few days and hopefully have something to report. Good luck.

Today was our opener. The morning had me staring at plenty of nannies with the exception of a Spike. The afternoon was much better, Had an 8, a 9 and a small 8 with his left main beam snapped off at the brow tine. I let them all walk since I have bigger fish to fry, all in all it was a promising day and I'll be back out tomorrow, Friday and Saturday.
