Huntrdfk · « **Reply #147 on:** January 22, 2005, 03:56:00 PM »

Shawn or Curt

What are you guys getting for snow out there this weekend?

David

joe skipp · « **Reply #148 on:** January 22, 2005, 05:50:00 PM »

Dave, I drove home 1 hr into the storm and it was a whiteout. Barely could see vehicles 60 yds in front of me. We're expecting up to 15" with high drifts, 30 mph winds.

Guru · « **Reply #149 on:** January 22, 2005, 05:53:00 PM »

David,We're supposed to get 15-25" down by me

.

Hopefully we won't get that much

Shawn Leonard · « **Reply #150 on:** January 22, 2005, 05:59:00 PM »

Joe, I e-mailed ya my #, I will do it again. The snow is bad 2"s and hour. We have 6"s now and it hasd only been snowing about 3 hrs. We are supposed to get at least 20"s, like Joe said white conditions, wind chills 25 below zero. Curt next weekend is open as well, we have to scout and shoot some for sure. Brian I hate waiting too, but I have been huntin quite a bit as usual. I got a new LB today, Widow PLX, it is a sweet shooter, I have to find the right arrow. 2117s bare-shaft real nice but fletched seam a tad stiff. I am shooting away in the house when I let the dogs out! Shawn

Huntrdfk · « **Reply #151 on:** January 22, 2005, 06:30:00 PM »

Great, You guys be safe, I just looked at our local forecast and they are saying 20" to two plus feet, plus the high winds. I'm expecting the phone to ring tonight to help out at work, we'll see.

David

Shawn Leonard · « **Reply #152 on:** January 22, 2005, 06:46:00 PM »

Yeah David, I work for a large school district and will have to go in and have my building ready for Monday. I like the snow though, I just do not like the below zero temps, 15-20 is OK. Shawn

3dmuzzy · « **Reply #153 on:** January 22, 2005, 06:54:00 PM »

Shawn,whats the spec's on the widow ihear good things about there new long bow.Maybe when i come up for the rabbit hunt a can take a few shots.No 3d shoot its a blizzard down here.

Shawn Leonard · « **Reply #154 on:** January 22, 2005, 07:05:00 PM »

It is actually the very first Proto-Type of the PLX, it is marked Proto# 1. It is the same bow though except the grip may be a tad different. It is 62"s and marked 50#s at 28"s, but it scales 52#s on a couple different scales. It is sweet, no handshock and fairly quick. I hate the Widow strings though. I am gonna order a 10 strand D-97 for it. I am liking it, but have only shot it about 100 times. I got to find the right arrow yet!! I cannot wait to see all you guys at the hunt. OOHHHH YEAHHH!!!! Shawn

Huntrdfk · « **Reply #155 on:** January 22, 2005, 07:10:00 PM »

I know what you mean Shawn, thing with us is we're out there 24/7, and I think we only have two newer guys on the street for midnights tonight. Those Ford Crown Vics aren't all that good in feet of snow.

Looks like I should start looking for the snowshoes for next month. As a new guy I expect to be breaking trail, so I'll be gettin on the treadmill too. Less than a month to go!!!

David

Mark Fedrizzi · « **Reply #156 on:** January 22, 2005, 07:11:00 PM »

Brian, ED and ????, maybe we should try and get a "mini" bunny hunt in before Shawn's???

Shawn Leonard · « **Reply #157 on:** January 22, 2005, 07:18:00 PM »

David, the way we hunt, everyone breaks trail. We usually surround a piece and my Dad places some of the watchers and we just send the dogs and pushers through. It was perfect last year, overcast and about 5"s of snow and temps right around 30 degrees. The only thing I pray for is snow(amount does not matter, unless over two feet) and overcast skies. The bunnies do not like bright sunshine with them big eyes and on sunny days hang close to their holes. Shawn

Shawn Leonard · « **Reply #158 on:** January 22, 2005, 10:10:00 PM »

Up before bed!! Shawn

bjk · « **Reply #159 on:** January 22, 2005, 10:34:00 PM »

I'll get in touch with you mid week, Mark. A hunt or some shootin would be great. I'll know mid week how my weekend is going to be.

Talk later,
Brian
