New to crossbows
 

And new to the forum. I lurked for a couple of weeks deciding if I can fit in with ya nuts (no offense meant by calling a squirrel a nut;)) and decided to join the circus:)

Last year I used my OLD compound (Bear hunter....before cable guards) and harvested two does. This year I have a new Horton Legend HD 175 (yes, training wheels:D), and I am very happy with the speed and accuracy. There are still a few in my state (VA) that don't care for xbows, but they will have to get over it.;) I am still looking for a compound to hunt with also just because I enjoy shooting both.

Oh almost forgot Mitch. Don't worry about the tree rat taking offense, he's used to being a good whipping post lately. Just be carefull, sometimes he gets going so fast he starts eating his own nuts!!!!

Squkilla: "Rubber Ramada" = "Home for the Permantly Disorientated" = "Confusion Central"= well, you get my drift here, lol lol lol. Seriously, whose farm is the 200+ on this week??


Mitchmntn1: Welcome to the forum!! Jump in and get ya some bud!!

RE: New to crossbows
 

LMAO i just recently found out that 57 hunters asked to hunt at my grandma's farm(right beside mine). 57 HUNTERS! they all were turned down because it's family hunting only. each one had reported seeing a absolute MONSTER buck feeding down there. well turns out once or twice a week my little buddy walks from the neighbors, thru our woods and feeds in our feild before going down into the property i'm trying to get into. LOL! well i'm staying here and shooting him. he's accompanied by 8 does regularly. i'm a happy little dude right now.:D

Squkilla: The first thing you need to master to be a truly great bs artist is to keep things straight, at least in your mind. I think you have your number of hunters confused w/ that classic poop kicker song, "There's 57 Guitar Pickers in Nashville". Wanna check and get back to us??

RE: New to crossbows
 

no it seriously was 57. but that was over the course of all of last year. that road is used to get to some large towns and big highways. my gma kept count. i'm sure it was 57. i'm just praying he didnt get shot by road hunters:(heck, i had 14 come up our driveway wanting to know the story on our farm. people watch the deer all the time down there.

RE: New to crossbows
 

OK, but I'm gonna keep an eye on ya!! LOL Hope ya gig him Thomas!!

RE: New to crossbows
 

I go to sleep and another wayward person has come play in the cats sandbox.Welcome mitch but you have to check yer Horton at the door! OK squirrel grab his Horton and add it to yer collection. See no xbow and you can get a good one an Excal. That should open yer eyes. squirrel i see you have been pumping iron this summer.Looks like you can handle a few cats.:)

RE: New to crossbows
 

Now does the name TRESSPASSER strike a familiar note anyone? I know its his granma's but does he really have permission? Now think about this contest nazi, would you as a grandparent give permission to this young dude considering the respect he has for us "adults" (hehehe) do you really thing he got a yes???? Bet he doesn't want to ask!!!!

RE: New to crossbows
 

she's givin me her treestand to put up and she's tellin me where to put it:Dshe's 79 years old and still hunting.[&:]

RE: New to crossbows

RE: New to crossbows

RE: New to crossbows
