Same as last spring....50" Browning Cobra, 58" Kempf Longbow, Sitka Spruce arrows tipped with 160 gr Snuffers all stuffed in my Catquiver 3.5.

Since I don't use a blind, this year I'm going back to my Rancho Safari Ghille hat. I cleaned it up and forgot just how much I like using it when deer hunting.

Hey Joe, I am a big Browning bow fan and have shot a lot of different ones----with the Cobra being one I haven't played with, she shoot pretty good? Anything like the Bear Magnums?

My set up is a zenith 27"with a remote and the couch. I see more in the car then afield. See them all deer season but when turkey season comes they go in the turkey protection program and I never see them. I just about given up on them.I was using a Hill Tembo 70# with cedar or magnolia and 125 gr woodsman.
