I started my ramble on the "tracking" post I had more to say and decided to start my own.

First, I would like to thank all of you for the many many posts/topics started through out they day. You all give my fiance' something to talk about, think about and keep his day flying by while he is driving his truck. (I hit him up on our 2 ways and read him questions/comments and problems that are posted). I want to thank you for myself. I have learned quite a bit from many of the posts I read.

This is my second year bow hunting and I am a fanatic.

My fiance' took me under his wing a few years back and started my teaching. I shot a bow many, many years ago but never took the step (up) into a tree to carry it further. I am awestruck now, with hunting and with his passion for it. I love watching deer, scouting for sheds, scanning our hunting property for trails, skat, rubs, etc. We fight over who will get the "monster" this year. I laugh to myself when I think of getting the bigger one so I have bragging rights for the year. Right now he is so proud of me for passing up a small basket 8pt last year, but still laughs at my miss a week later at a nice rack.

We, obviously, do more then bowhunting; duck, whistle pigs, quail, pheasant, rabbit etc. But, nothing really does compare to a crisp morning in a tree waiting patiently for that big one everyone in the area keeps talking about.

This is my public thank you for my new lease on life to my, somedayto be, better half.

Welcome,

We need more women around here.
The buck-doe ratio is way out of wack.

Thank you for the "welcome" .

I get a lot of different reactions when people find out I hunt. Mostly shock.

I belong to another local site and all those guys welcomed me withopen arms; bunch of great people.

I see I have found that here as well.

Welcome! Now what can we do to help you shoot a bigger buck than your Fiance'?

My wife kills more deer with a Bow than I do. Good luck this Season.

He has said quite a few times that he hopes mine is bigger.. I know it would kill him if it was.... He just wants me to be safe and enjoy. And, I am..

I get hounded for this all the time too.. Don't like posting pics of myself on the net.

Tell me, do you guys hound each other for pics ?

Well, that's probably smart not posting pictures.
Not fun, but smart.

A lot of us morons are on the mugs post at top.

I'm surprised by some people who have family pages that anyone can access where you
can find out all the family names, address, personal information (like b-days), and pictures.
That is asking for trouble.

Also, kids post things on myspace and facebook that will be digitally stored forever and could be
used against them later. Employers and others now regularly search those types of sites to find
out info on you.
