Man that sucks

 

Put another pop up tent up today, I’ll brush it in later because I have a few little holes in it that needs repaired. I think all my prep work is done.

 

Made it to Three Forks. Off to the hunting base camp tomorrow morning.

buddy of mine that’s been up here solo for a week got a muley this morning. Said there’s plenty of animals around

also, it’s so smoky up here. It’s eerie because you know you’re surrounded by big ass mountains but you can’t see them because of the smoke from the fires in OR and WA

 

Hope this works.......noticed several of you guys looking to buy a youth bow. I am going to sell my son's Parker Sidekick bow and accessories. I am giving him my Mathews DXT as I am having issues drawing it back and I bought a Ravin R-15 crossbow instead.

The bow is currently set up with 40-50 lb limbs, but it also comes with a set of 20-30 lb and 30-40 lb limbs. It was called 'Grow up with Parker'. Bought it with the 20-30 lb limbs and when Cole outgrew them, I bought the 30-40 lb limbs and had them swapped out at a local archery shop. Then once he outgrew those limbs, I bought the 40-50 lb limbs and had them swapped out again.

For sale would be the: Bow, 3 sets of limbs (draw length is adjustable, too), sight, rest, stabilizer, release, quiver, and several different sized arrows (18 total). To ship it, I would need to likely buy a hard case for protection. The extra limbs were $50 + shipping per set.

Thinking of $300 + cost of a case (unless you would just want it bubble wrapped and boxed) + shipping.

If interested, let me know.

Sorry, I can't figure out how to load my pics.....used my cell phone, then sent them to the computer and downloaded them. When I try to load them here, I get an error message???

I can text them to anyone willing to try and post them for me or if anyone has an interest in buying it.

StayinStock.......I would appreciate your phone # so I can text you the pics and you then you could post them for me. Thought I already answered your offer to do so??? Again, not too tech savvy.

I did find the original box for the bow!

StayinStock, I thought I answered your offer to post the pics for me??? Can you send me your phone # please???

Or, anyone else willing to post the pics for me??? That way I could also post in the For Sale Other section.

Found the original Parker shipping box, too!!!

Thanks, Pops

 

Decided to try to fletch my own arrows. First try at it seemed to go well. Did up a few 3 fletch and a few four fletch. Both are right helical. Ill see how they fly then pick the best setup.

THANK YOU, StayinStock!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

You're welcome!

 

Made a few adjustments.
But I’m really struggling this year.
Not consistent at all.
At least it’s on the block....
I know it’s me. That’s the good thing.

this is the best group tonight
20 yards.


30 yards were bigger but not horrible.


Next group was no where like this
Then better

been really dark and windy when practicing..
Hard time seeing the bull hence the fluorescent tape.
Still not easy right now

 

"Big Mike" be like





where's that damn block at..

 

Pretty much.
Sucked the last two days.

 

Those groups look good to me.

 

Yup both of those blocks would be dead deer!

 

Exactly what I was thinking.

 

Yea but those are like the best out of like 8 or 9 .....3 shot groups.
Like I said the others had no rhyme or reason for placement.
Give me 30 shots and I can hit just about anything right now.

 

I shot 3 arrows today and stopped; the more I shoot the worse I suck.

 

I also dont like what im shooting real well....it starts costing me too much...i robin hooded another arrow last week practicing with my good hunting arrows. Down to 4 good arrows for the season.
Also killed the fletching on one of my arrows.
