Nice bucks... I just tipped over a moose this evening with the Hoyt... will get some pics up tomorrow.

The biggest thing is how the bow feels to you. Go and try them. Chances are you will know right away which is the right one. I know the Assassin has received awesome reviews but both PSE and Bowtech make great bows and either would be excellent choices. Even though those are considered entry level, with the new technology today they are now out performing the top end bows of only a few years ago.

2008 Thor Tahoe 26FS. It is the type that shares the living and garage space with beds and a couch that fold up out of the way. The newer toy haulers are pretty awesome. This one is a 30 foot long bumper pull with a ton of room inside and fully loaded it is light enough to pull with a 1/2 ton truck.

Depends on the size of the garage space in the toy hauler... I can fit both my XP and Banshee in my toy hauler and it is a bumper pull so I still have the back of the truck open for another quad or bikes if needed. Ours has 14' of garage so the Rzr goes in first with the Banshee sideways in behind it.

I have a 900 Walker Evans and love it... I have friends with a 800s and a 800le and they really like thiers as well. I have another buddy who just put a deposit on a 570le so we will see what that is like shortly. The 900 has way more power and suspension than the 800s but unless you ride in the dunes lots there are not many other places it makes that big a difference. I am amazed at how well these things ride and handle and the shit they can go through.

Those are some awesome bucks right there....

I have never been much for waterfowl hunting... but congrats none the less

Awesome... way to go nice long brow tines

Lookin' good I have never tried a muzzle loader... but there is no separate season for them here so I would only be able to use one during rifle season.

It is common for the bearing in the idler gear to wear out. As long as the gear is OK you can just put a new bearing in it. Be sure to replace the snap ring when you reinstall it as well.

Very nice

Good luck man... especially if you are using traditional gear...

It was not a pass through... Shot him from about 12 yards out of a 17' treestand but it was a little forward... entered in the top of his left shoulder, passed through his chest, clipping both lungs, and out the right side at his arm pit, through the bottom of his right shoulder and stopped at the hide. Found the broadhead and a couple inches of the shaft in his right shoulder. The broadhead made just a little poke in the hide but stopped without going through. If the shot was back behind the shoulder where it should have been it would have been a pass through but in the end it didn't matter. It still got the job done.

Here ya go... day 3 of archery season and I have my first archery buck on the ground... he is also my first velvet buck. He isn't the biggest buck out there but I was happy to take him. Probably only about 125-130... haha not even sure how to measure them when they are in velvet still. I have never had a chance at a velvet buck before, but this year the season started earlier than usual so I couldn't wait to try for one. I saw him last night but he winded me and headed right back into the bush... I never got a shot. Then tonight I went to a different stand, farther down the same trail, and out he came... he walked right under me... I took the shot at about 10 yards. I though he was going to smell me again and take off, so I didn't hesitate. What a great night.... now for a moose... that opens next week.
