PowWow / New member intro is hooked aga...
Last post by Flemish Twister - Today at 06:51:20 PM
New member and hail from Michigan near Port Huron. My archery career began shooting bows with training wheels some 35 years ago. Spent perhaps 10 years using those contraptions before taking up traditional bows. Hunted with trad gear for 12-15 years until a degree of frustration set in; consistency or lack of, misses, work getting in the way etc. The wife went to work for G5 Prime somewhere along the way, so I could buy premium compound bows at a rather deep discount. Thus I was lead back to the dark side for a number of years. I was fortunate enough to be able to retire about a year ago, and made up my mind that I was going to master the string and stick once and for all.
Boy how things have evolved since I was away! YouTube has been the (virtual) shooting coach I needed to really improve and of course this forum is AWESOME!
I sort of forgot how much fun it was to shoot traditional gear! And collect traditional gear! And set up traditional gear! And make / test arrow combinations! And when the wife asks what I plan for the day, I say "play archery"! I'm hooked bad! Again!

There is no "hype" with single bevel broadheads.  Most negative comments come from arm chair experts who have never hunted with them.  Easier to sharpen than most double bevels IMO.  Good penetration.  Good blood trails.  I've killed plenty of critters with both double and single bevel heads.

I hunt hogs in South Georgia.  The land is so thick it is a struggle to walk through it.  My lightweight Kuiu pants did not hold up well.  I bought a pair of Kuiu brush buster pants and the are nothing short of great.  They a very light compared to other brush buster pants. Very flexible.  Soft.  Quiet!  I can wear them in hot summer temps without overheating.  Give them a look.  A bit pricey but worth every penny!

I hunt in Central/South Alabama and I wear the Carhart pants from Lowes, and a wool jacket on the top. Sheds the briars pretty well, and inexpensive. Yeah, you'll still get a few briars but they work good. Early season, I will wear a flannel or a T-shirt. You may draw a little blood with the T-shirt.

What do you think a fair price would be? I'm not trying to make a killing, I just like a good fair deal.  I'd really just like to get it to someone who appreciates it.  I'll try to post a couple pics.
