Hey man, I hear ya about school taking over your life. Between classes and work it seems like there isn't time in the day for anything else. But the 18th will be here soon, and it will be nice to be back in the woods again. Went fall turkey hunting this past saturday afternoon. Managed to smoke a young hen...more of a big chicken then a turkey haha. but it will eat good and it was a nice way to kick off the season, I hope the good luck carries over to bow hunting.
Hey y'all! The latest America's Frugal Sportsman blog is posted on my profile. Topic is: Brush Rifles Fact or Myth, which will also be the topic of America's Frugal Sportsman podcast for Thursday 10/16. As usual, check out the blog and tell me what you think.
hey man what's going on? nothing much here, just bored in class...staring out the window and wishing it was october already haha. so what's good? you been seeing any?
Havent talked to you in ahile.. just wanted to say hi!
I know it, what ya been up to? I don't hardly get on anymore now that school's started. When I do have free time I'm shootin my bow! Got yours tuned up and ready to roll yet?
I hear ya! Mitch and I just got new bows yesterday.. so were gonna have to go to the bow shop and get them set up! Im so excited! Can wait for bowseason. Hope you and Meghan are doing good! Tell her I said hello
Got my Stingers last weekend, they're shootin' great, and shaaarrrrrrp! I bought a small cheap Smith's sharpener tool, maybe it will do the job. But I'm ready to roll, can't wait! Are you in the bow contest?
That's awesome, i've been real impressed with them so far, they just look nasty on the end of an arrow too! Yeah i'm in the bow contest this year, Team 40 baby! haha i'm actually a little intimidated some of the guys on my team are from like pike county ill. or have hunts planned in alberta and stuff. Hell if i get a little crotch horn with my bow i'll be happy haha. But it should be fun either way, and a cool way to get to know a few more guys. What team are you on?
I've actually never sharpened broadheads either. I will have to look into a good sharpening set, or just find someone who is good at it and talk them into doing it for me haha. I just got in from shooting and after a little tuning i got those stingers hitting pretty good.
Howdy! I just posted the latest America's Frugal Sportsman blog on my profile. Check it out if you get a chance. As always, your comments are appreciated.
Yeah I'm gonna get the 4 blade Stingers at basspro when I go to the beach in a couple of weeks. They're supposed to be very good broadheads. Also come with a lifetime warranty. If you break it, need replacement bleeder blades, or just can't sharpen it good enough anymore, they send you new ones for free. That's what I like, no buying replacements. I'm looking forward to shooting them for sure. Let me know how they shoot for you!
Yeah the lifetime warranty was def another selling point for me. Do you plan on resharpening them yourself? I would like to be able to touch them up on my own but I don't know if I'm skilled enough. I can put a decent edge on a knife but I've never been able to get a real shaving sharp edge like you need on a broadhead.
