....goes out into the field and kills a 200+ booner at 60 yards with nothing on his mindbut the rack hanging on the wall....
Most CB's sound like smacking a yard stick on a table at best. String jump is a big factor for CB hunting. I enjoy hunting with Cb's, and am not trying to compare them as level, but bogus statements like that make no sense at all. They are not the long range weapon people think they are.
You're kidding, right? . . . I'm not damning you for using a CB man, if it's your thing,it's your thing. . .but I see guys smoke deer ALL season at 40& 50 yards without any problems from string jumping. Are they loud?. . .um, yeah. . .but at the speed those bolts travel, good luck to anything within 50 yards. This doesn't come from theories in my head bro. . .it's what ISEE with my own eyes each and every season.
Did not say you are putting me down for using a CB, you did not, you mentioned faimily using them and supported them.

But I still hold to one fact, you showa 200 class buck that was shot at sixty yards with a CB and I show you a deaf or dumb buck, plain and simple.

If you see deer getting shot at that distance as often as you say you must have deer in your part of the state that are different then the deer in the rest of Ohio and North America for that matter. CB's are loud and the entire woods knows it when you shoot one.
