Drew, sounds like a plan we can split the gas, not to mention that I can sight see for a change   :bigsmyl:  Just let me know what your plans are.

Hold the phone   :scared:  He's up to something I'll tell you that much   :campfire:  And another thing I thought chuck said once that he liked old bears but couldn't shoot them, it looks to me like he does pretty well with old Griz, if in fact that was the bow he used on the chain.

You Can Bet I'm Up To Somthin'! I'm working on getting some (more) time off from work so I can get up to this "Northern Zone Attack". I'd like to be there. I'd love to be there. I want to be there. Just gotta work it out. So for now it looks like a maybe.

Ken... I'll be at my place in the Catskills October 17 thru the 26th, give or take some. Got a few coyotes there.

I'll be using that beautiful saluki turk that I picked up from Drew last year(I love the hell out of that bow!!).  I will also bring the Pronghorn LB(love the hell out of that one as well).
At the moment I'm tossing around the idea of using the treesharks or the "no mercy's" that came in today.  
I shot the zwickeys today before work and they flew awesome(somehow better than field points!!)  Though they flew great, my initial impression of the zwickeys construction was absolutely horrible, As sloppy as it gets.  The grinds were uneven and just plain bad. The paint was even scraped off 2 of them in the package!
 Like I said, they flew great though, and it wont be too hard to make them useable with my knife grinder and a file.  
Figured I'd add a little review to my post since it was fresh in my mind.  Hope you don't mind.
Also using AD tradlites.

looks like a pretty big crew, sure to be a great hunt. i will be scouting out more stand sites this weekend with Adirondackman. i do know that some people will be pretty close together as there is a great run that needs to be covered throughly. Jim and Joe will be hunting a total seperate ridge with a lot of turkeys in hopes of Joe getting a shot at a big ole gobbler. i know Nate has a score to settle with Ma Barker! hoe to find some good buck sign, Woodchucker saw a nice racked buck last year but was a little to far away.  i would like to stay in the stands a little longer this time as long as the temp's don't get crazy.  i had not planned on an evening hunt Saterday unless everyone really wants to or i could take those who want to and set them in their stands and come back in get them, its all up to you guys.
