with archery opener now a month away, i'm getting super anxious to sit in a tree! bring on sept 15th!

[aquaassassin]

You and me both bro! I am stoked to be able to fill my bear barrels in two weeks and that will hold me over for the first two weeks of Sept. I quit bear hunting on the 14th though, nothing gets in the way of me and my whitetails! Good luck this season!

[dt5150]

what zone are you in DT

I'm getting a little fix this week.  Taking a trip to Pittsburg for a day.  I'll start scouting in the southern part of the state again on the 1st.  I'll double check all the stands.
Today, I just took my red dot site off my TC .54cal Scout muzzleloading pistol and put it on my daughters Rossi youth .45 cal. muzzleloading carbine.  I did a laser bore sight and removed the cheap fiber optics.  We'll sight it in later this week.  I also put my Leupold VXII 2x7 on my son's CVA Wolf .50cal muzzleloading carbine last year and it is a tack driver to 100yds. I know, too much scope for a kid I plan to limit to 50yd shots.  I Didn't have funds for another Leupold 1x4 at the time and he's much more comfortable with scope over irons.  I spent the day today tearing down, cleaning and putting back together all the muzzleloaders in preparation for some range time later this week.

dropped my destroyer 350 off at brian's archery for a super tune and have them install a new trophy ridge revolution micro arrow rest. can't wait to see how she shoots!

[aquaassassin]

I need to stop in there today and grab some new tubing, I change the peep tube every year bc I get so scared of it dry rotting and snapping when I have Mr. Freaknasty in front of me. I will be good to go after that.

[dt5150]

lose the tube!!!!

[aquaassassin]

LoL I cant do it! I love the peeps that you could barely put a hair through, so accurate, and so I need it to be straight on.

[dt5150]

you can see better through a bigger peep.. especially in low light. i have a 1/4" g5 meta peep on mine and love it. much less noise w/out the tube too.

[aquaassassin]

Yeah, I know you can see better with a beast of a peep like that but, I shoot with both eyes open and have never really had an issue even in low light conditions. I just like the smaller diameter bc it is all I have ever used and am told its more accurate. Do you have a kisser or anything? Just your normal anchor? Are your 3 arrows in a dixie cup accurate inside 20? I wouldnt mind trying one out bc I see where your coming from jw if you really lose an accuracy?
