Got me Howler, I should have mentioned compound somewhere in that sentence. I've killed a few deer with my traditional gear. With that equipment I've never used a mechanical. The musk oxen was barely scratched by the Snuffer (I figured the 3 to 1 ratio would be better suited for the bag target the musk oxen wear-I was wrong). I pulled the Super Short out from behind my back, unslung it, hiked/ran another mile down a creek bed, and then killed the oxen with a well placed Torrid.

Anyway, I wish you the very best with your hunting endeavors! If you're ever in the Erie area, drop a dime. I'll buy the first round. I would love to hear about your hunts (saw the moose and antelope threads-Congratulations!)

Well wishes,

Will
