If you're shooting your Allegiance, the cold ones may just HELP.....

Here is a picture from thecheapy ladder stand I haveset up in my back yard with 4 and a half 3D deer set up at various distances. (only 2 decoys in the pic)
Yes I have 1/2 of an old decoy left that I have set up almost underneath the ladder stand for that extremely close shot. [8D]

Hey Rob, nice looking place. How many acres do you have? Are you in the valley close to the river? I drive through there during my summer job as a bulk mail carrier (I stop at the muncy post office). The stretch of 414/44 from Watsontown all the way through to Muncy is really nice.

Here's my yard/range.



I'll have to take a pic from my stand I have setup also. Nice and easy, 20 feet out the back door.

Boy am I jealous of those of you who are able to just step out back and shoot! It's illegal to shoot our bows in residential areas around here.

Not like it would matter anyhow, all I'd be able to shoot is 15 yards.

Rybohunter, I sure feel sorry for the person that comes walking around the side of that house!!

Washington, it's alright... I'm jealous of all the hunting everyone seems to be doing, while I'm stepping out my backdoor to "practice"!!!
