I had to register just for this message I' m usually checking out information. However I can buy any bow with a resonable speed and be shooting groups tighter than bisquit at thirty yards in less than a few hours. But it doesn' t mean I' m ready to go bowhunting. A person has to become one with his bow. Know it inside and out, be comfortable with it. But a person who buys a bow a few days in advance can usually get the bow tuned and ready before he hunts. In fact my new bow bought about a month ago is a High Country Carbon 4 runner extreme and I have never shot as good with any bow as I do with this one. In one months time frame I can at thirty yards put a 6 shot group less than a 50 cent piece. However because my arrows are in excess of 10 dollars a piece I tend to only shoot three shot groups and hope I don' t destroy a previously shot arrow.

Don' t knock the guy' s buying new equipment it could be better for the deer. Older outdated equipment upgraded with something new could make a person shoot better. However for those new to archery that are buying weeks or even days in advance is a huge mistake.

Good Luck to you all.
