KardKutter, I'm glad you are going to get some practice in before you hit the woods. I know I've only got three days practice in since getting my new string and I know I wouldn't feel very confident. Better to be sure that you're going to get a lethal shot in instead of a wounding shot.
My archery shop charged me a grand total of 99.48 for string, kisser, rest, nock points & three carbon arrows. Also included was the two hours he spent putting everything together and showing me pointers. He told me that over the last couple of years he has seen a decline in new hunters. That is sad...
Today I am going to check the StealthCam and if all is well I will get pics back in one or two days. I am very curious as to what is out there as I had one of my chickens attacked two days ago (though that may have been a hawk). The black bears go right up the path where my camera is located - hopefully they haven't ripped it apart (fingers crossed)!
Check in later.....
