Today is the day.......

That I made a choice on what bow to shoot from now right thru hunting season. Any 3/D, stumping or hunting will be done with a 64" Holm Made Goshawk dual shelf R/D longbow. Specs are 44# @ 29" with 45/60 Carbon Express 200 gr. up front with a 2 blade broadhead. Magnus, Ace, Deltas or something similar. Anyone else getting dialed in for the hunt season........???

[ron w]

And in the morning the ladder stand will be set up in a spot that I hope will be productive...lol!!

[DarrinG]

Ive been shooting nothing but broadheads (Zwickey Deltas) out of my hunting rig for almost a month now. I'm ready!  

[elkhunter45]

I'm pretty much ready. I'll be shooting the same old Bear Kodiak Hunter 50 @ 28 that I have used for several years. It is equipped with a Thunderhorn strap on quiver loaded up with Gold Tip Trad 500's cut to 29" with sharp 200 grain Zwickey Eskimo's/steel adapters. I was shooting the other evening when a possum made the mistake of trotting across the back yard. At 32 yards the Gold tip did its business. That arrow stinks so bad that I can't bring it in the house. lol

[mark Willoughby]

Yup I'll be toting a javaman Assyrian 44 @ 31 goldtip trads with 165 landsharks can't wait !

[Friend]

Have attempted to stay dialed-in all year long.

Completed ground set number eight this morning.

[ron w]

I should mention that I also will have several ground set ups ready when the time is right. I do love hunting from the ground. Sounds like everybody is getting the urge....lol!

[mcgroundstalker]

I've been ready! My Stumping, 3D and Hunting set up is the same...

... mike ...    ...

[Buckeye1977]

I thought I was ready bow wise until I bought a toelke Chinook! I haven't received it yet but am anxious to get it tuned and see if it will be my go to for deer season!

[Orion]

I'm down to two bows for elk season, which for me starts in about three weeks.  Have another 3 or 4 bows I'll use for deer after that, dropping down in weight as the season progresses and the temps get colder.

[ronp]

I've been rebuilding my house...

  :mad:       :mad:      :mad:  

But I'll be down at OxTAR next week-end to start getting ready.  Been way, way too long...         Good to hear you have decided what set up to use this fall, Ron.

[woodchucker]

I'll be using my Kodiak T/D that I bought a couple years ago. It's the only bow I'll be using untill they spread my ashes on the mountain. I figure I waited 40 years to get it, I've go a lot of years to make up!

[PICKNGRIN]

My Goshawk will be with me also.

[ron w]

Set my stand up today.......I think I'm excited for this year.......everything looks good and I am shooting well.

[glenbo]

Go get em Ron. Best wishes for a safe and successful season

[YosemiteSam]

Season opens this weekend here.  I'll let things calm down from that & then spend a few days camped along a quiet creek.

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Good luck Ron.  Season opens here mid September but I have not shot my bow since june. also have not set up stands yet.  I have however opened up a trail, and hopefully by winter will have this house ready to live in.  I will be using my Big Jim Thunderchild as it is already set up to go.  Now that  I have an indoor range in the barn, I can shoot whenever. soon I will have electric and plumbing out there so I can shoot at night and get refreshing drinks of well water to boot lol.

[smokin joe]

I'm right there with you, Ron. My set up is 43# at 29" -- a Centaur. I have two different arrows dialed in, a 10 gpp with woodsman 3-blades up front for deer and a 12 gpp with single-bevel 2-blades for hogs. Both arrows are high FOC.

I will have 5 tree stands set up. Deer season opens here in early Sept, but I might wait until the very end of the month to hunt.

[ron w]

I decided to have a back up ready......Northern Mist Whisper, dual shelf, Selway quiver and cedar arrows. It 46# @ 29" Both bows shoot well.
