I just wanted to give a big thank you to everyone on here, for nothing more than sharing their stories and adventures.

I signed on to the board quite a while ago. Pretty much forgot about the site for 3 years.

Well I haven't hunted in a really long time and absolutely loved to go bow hunting even though I wasn't all that good at it. Pretty good shot, but I just never got everything together for a good hunt.

My bowhunting experience is going through 2 deer seasons without ever taking a shot. Giving a very nice antelope a hair cut under his chest, and bagging one turkey.

This was the year I was going to start bow hunting again....until my bow got stolen not long before the season. I came back to see recommendations on getting a new bow and have been actively reading posts sense.

Even though I probably won't get a new bow this year(hoping my old one is still recovered) I've thoroughly enjoyed reading everybodies stories and looking at the pictures.

One last thing, just to add insult to getting my bow stolen. I've seen about 20 deer on my 20 acres every night since bow season opened here.
