this makes 2 big deer I've missed down there. the first was an 8 point, yesterday a 6 point with about a 17" spread.
I've learned my lesson, I'll always try and stop the deer before
I take the shot. have you ever heard people makin ever mistake in the book? well I do!

I shot and brokw 3 G/E Splitfires a couple of years ago ( I think that was the model - fire somethings ??) two I blew the cams apart on and one had a cracked riser. The offset grips were nice, but hated the bows !!

I have heard of Felsenthal but haven't ever hunted it. Lots of pressure ?

That White River NWF is the one I want to go to ! Did you see the big buck on www.ardeerhunting.com ?? HUGE !

my splitfire 36 is a new model they came out with this year.
it has an 8" braceheight, is 36" a/a and has the modular perimeter
one cam. I like the offset grip, and so far I've taken 2 deer with it
this year. hadn't had a bit of trouble with mine.
I get 245 fps with my beman ICS 400'rds.
dang!! I was thinkin about gettin the splitfire 1 a few years ago.
glad I didn't if they were that bad.!

felsenthall gets a lot of pressure untill the last 2 day gun hunt. which is around the 9th of nov. then after that, it's not bad at all.
that's when I usually go from around the 15th through the end of nov.

never hunted white river, I imagine it's hunted hard.
