"There used to be a similar system called DART"

Ok, gotcha. I thought that might be what you were talking about. Ive shot that on a few occassions, but its been awhile, and think i remember it being "dart". Pretty fun. Been doing my own arrows & bow work, dealin' mostly mail order or one of the big stores like cabelas & gander. Havent been to any shoots or been in any leagues in years....outta the loop with whats goin' on at the bow shops these days.

Techno hunt isnt anything close t the quality of DART but it's still a fun way to spend an hour a week through the winter months.

trout will be here sooner than you think, have been scouting my favorite native streams, mainly just to be outside, not like i can setup trail cameras for them

After taking care of family matters for the past month. I'll be getting butt sore and cross-eyed from many hours at the tying bench. Spring steelhead first,followed by some quality time on the local trout streams.

Or do you just shoot the discs the musics on?...

....Check out about 30 seconds of that. Then just picture a bunch of guys, unshaven, chaw of tobacco in, hardcore hunter types standing on the line with bows drawn with those lights and that music playing. lol.

Went out yesterday after crows. DAYAMMM did we have a ball!

We only had time for 4 stops but the crows cooperated on 3 of em and we managed to bring down a grand total of 3. We fired .....well.... a couple more than 3 shots!

In the process of calling crows, we also brought in 6 or 7 hawks.
I know thats a fed regulation but we sure seem to have a lot of em, too many IMHO
