I bow hunted from the time I was a young boy with barebow recurves and longbows but can no longer do so due to my nerve disease. My last bow was a beautiful custom longbow that I was never able to hunt with. Like you I did a lot of hunting from a tree stand however where I received my most treasured memories was scouting with my best friend. He and I spent countless hours tracking and studying different animals growing up in the hills and swamps of southern Arkansas. We learned to pattern deer down so we knew where they bedded, traveled, what escape routes they preferred, the foods they preferred. We learned each deer's personality. Then we chose a particular buck that we would intensely watch to find the perfect place to set up for him. The woods in southern Arkansas are so thick it is extremely hard to sneak within bow range. So, we mostly became so familiar with our chosen buck we could see in our mind as he would awaken, start his daily routine and visualize him as he was approaching before we actually saw him at our ambush site either on the ground or in a tree. Those are my treasured memories as I hope you are making some of your own as you take the time to see and experience all God's creation for its natural beautify. A bow truly allows man to understand his relationship with nature as his forefathers did for thousands of years before him and before the age of machines if he will allow it to.    

Hey Countryboy, I would love to shoot 3D with you. I would even use my junkie PSE bow, the one thats taken 9 nice bucks and can hit a quarter at 10, 20, and 30 yards practically every time and thats with my old butt pulling it. The old PSE Baby G is a few years old but, still still spits those Carbon Force arrows pretty fast and puts those 100gr Spitfires right on their mark

OK, OK. >:(Some PSE bows are good, well, it's mostly the shooter, but anyway. I havn't shot 3D for a few years though. I used to be somewhat good. :(Don't know what happened to that though!
