Just wanted to say Hello. I've been reading from this site for a while and taking it all in. I've been away from the sport for quite a while and am ready to get back into Bow Hunting. This time next year I'll be retired from the Canoe Club (Navy) and will be back in business. Something about the Military + the World Situation and Bow Huntin' that just doesn't go together......

I've decided to go back to the traditional route (This "new" stuff they got out now, doesn't resemble a bow?) Anyhow, I'm still kinda wet behind the ears. I too am in the market for all the advice, tips, adult supervision anyone can provide me.....

Chad Weaver (Chek-Mate) has been quite helpful. So helpful, I'm ordering a CM Hunter II from him....Here's the set up. RT Hand, 50#@28" Draw, 58" with a Dyna Flight string..I plan on shootin' it off the shelf. I'm leaning towards aluminum arrows to shoot. That's what I'm most familiar with. more than likely 125 gr heads. I really like a heavier arrow. Kinda a compromise between a relatively flat trajectory and a hard hitting arrow combo...So any help, advice (besides practice my butt off) would greatly be appreciated. it's been quite a while and I'm rusty. Thanks all, in advance.

Cheers,
Chris Hartwig
