i would bring the Blacktail, but it's a bit of a glossy showpiece as well. it's also a little heavy for lugging around in the swamp. i have gotten dialed in with my Maddog Prairie Predator (in frog-green Actionwood, no less! Our Supreme Leader has pics). it's a whole lot lighter and more maneuverable than my recurves.
i got out in the yard with my 10-year-old today for some stump shooting. i had the Prairie Predator and he had his Maddog Pup. we put the smack down on a water bottle (i aimed for the cap).
really looking forward to basic training tomorrow (said no recruit ever, haha!) also, 6'2" is a little generous (6'1"), and 205# is REALLLLY generous, lol. i'm couple cinder blocks north of that.
