RE: Jog your memory and then tell me....
I love: The safer,more comfortable treestands, warmer clothes!, Hot Hands!, higher powered scopes. But just like VA, I wish it wasn't so commercialized. I hate going to a store's hunting/outdoors section and seeing all of the junk that they sell. It makes me mad.

RE: Jog your memory and then tell me....
Im easy when it comes to hunting, I do like the new bows,stands and other equipment but i just love the hand and foot warmers they just make those long sits more enjoyable.

ORIGINAL: magicman54494 When I started hunting Schultzy weighed 8 pounds - 11 oz.[8D]:D:):eek: How times have changed! That's pretty damn close on the weight too. I think I was 8lbs 15oz or something like that. |
RE: Jog your memory and then tell me....
I like have endless choices for arrows, rest, sights, bows, etc. Instead of going to the archery shop and ordering a " # 1", which was a Whitetail 2, dozen gamegetter 2's, and some razorback 5's.:D
I don't miss: overdraws flipper rests crackshot releases (i must have dropped the one I had 5,000 times) brass sight pins (had to raid moms finger nail polish to brighten them more than once) butane handwarmers (anyone ever use those dangerous SOB's??) |

I have to agree with the cold weather gear too. That has come a LONG way. I remember the days coming home from a hunt and taking about 7 hours to thaw out. Feet would be cold and wet. Hands wouldn't have feeling in them. If you moved your face it would crack. Shivering constantly on stand. I don't miss those days too much. Thank you under armour, hand warmers, insulated boots, and cold weather camo.:D

What things do you like about bowhunting in this new age? What don't you like?? If you could bring back something from the early days, (relative to how old you are) what would it be?? |
