Matt I was getting ready to jump all over your stuff. Have a Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year. Good luck in second season. As far as leading that deer? About 25 yds so you make sure you miss it completly and not a chance of wounding it. JERRY

Matt you big DUMMY! I read the title first, then saw who posted it! The first thing that came to mind was Oh no, this guy is going to get creamed! LOL Merry Christmas to you, and to everyone else here on the board. God bless all of you, and I wish everyone a happy new year.

TAKE YOUR KIDS HUNTING AND YOU WON'T BE HUNTING FOR YOUR KIDS
