Hey everyone, I am new to the bowhunting forum here, and just wanted to make my prescence known.
I have been hunting since I was 12, and am 21 now. I just decided to get into bow hunting over this past summer, by doing 3d shoots and such here in central PA.
I shoot a Jennings Buckmaster bow, with 30" draw and 65# pull. For a rest i use a whisker biscuit, with a Toxonics IV 4 pin fiber optic sight, and a tru-fire bear paw x caliper release. ALso, using easton 2314 aluminum arrows.
Early season I didn;t get the chance to get out that much due to college classes, but fortunately my X-mas break coincided with the late season here in PA.
I got out a good bit and the last day, I was involved in a drive (all guys but me with muzzloaders, last day, i figured what the hell)
Anyway on one of the drives, a huge doe and a large buck (size not horn wise) ran out to me. I whistled and the doe and buck stopped but the buck stopped behind a tree behind the doe, so I pulled on the doe and madea double lung pass through shot. Tracked her for 150 yards or so, and found her.
Oh yeah I was using muzzy 100 grain 4 blade broadheads.
WEll anyway, I just wanted to say hi, and am looking forward to posting on these forums :-)

Thanx for all the welcomes.
If you guys have any suggestions for mysetup please just let me know, I am always willing to take suggestions.
Personally I am pretty pleased with my buckmaster, at 20 yards i can hold a group within 2 inches, at 30 around 3 or 4 inches, and at 40 i get about 4 inch or a little higher groups. All shots are easily within deer vitals, so i am really pleased so far.
