First, I would like to nominate, second the nomination, and vote for Ryan (my7point) as team captain. Is that legal? I know he would do an awesome job and is more that capable. How do I know that? Not really sure, but he can type and spell correctly and that's good enough for me. Cast your vote now!
Red, you were asking about set-up. I'm shooting a Hoyt Seven 37 that I bought last Spring. It is still a virgin. I put on a Rip-cord drop-away rest and an Extreme RT-1000 sight. It's a great bow, especially if you have a long draw. Was looking at the bowtechs but couldn't find one with a long enough draw that I liked.
I added to my treestand collection by purchasing a Muddy Outdoors treestand and Lone Wolf climbing sticks. Should be a great addition when I want to explore and the climber won't do the trick. Since I usually hike in a mile to hunt I also decided to get a backback frame to haul all my gear. Those cheap straps kill my shoulder! This thing is great and can also be used to carry the pop-up blind if I want to hunt on the ground or bring either of my 2 boys. Now all I need are a few deer to show up.

my vote goes to ryan as well...well my setup has kinda changed in the past 2 years, i used to have and hunt with a fred bear "lights out" compound, due to shoulder problems that i accumlated in when i was younger from football and wrestling. my last deer kill was last year with the bow, i parted ways and got a crossbow which i like and grateful that ohio allows crossbow during the archery season, and im still getting used to it. its a horton summitt 150, and im shooting golden tip bolts laced with 100 grain slick trick mags. hoping this season is succesful, i passed on alot of deer last year, and hoping to get a shot on a pie-bald buck thatz been on my trail cam.

Thanks guys. Good to see you guys posting also.
I'm shooting a 2007 hoyt vulcan 72# carbon express maxima hunters with 100 grain g5 strykers on them. Fuse quiver fuse stabalizer viper sight 5 pin got 20 35 45 50 yd pins set. Shoot a fletcher 44 caliper release custom strings custom wraps also... Qad rest. Which I love btw. Shoots about 289 292 fps which is what I wanted it to do so.
I'm pretty shy and there's this farm I realllllyyyy want to hunt but I'm too afraid to stop and ask, so what's your guys recomended approach? This spot is an absolute honey hole. Farm sitting down in a draw where people can't spot it where as the other part of the field they can.... And do.
Suggestions anyone?
Ryan.
