Stumping with Elbow. Lots of pics.
« on: April 05, 2009, 09:25:00 PM »
Did some mud running today and drove out to the boondocks to shoot some arrows with Craig AKA Elbow this morning. Going to post a bunch of pics and let him explain. Can you identify all the sign?

Well fellas, these pictures were all taken on my property today, 100 acres in Hubbardton Vt. , Meadow is 1/4 mile in the woods behind the house, sapling was hooked by a VT buck last year, Moose and deer do share the same toilet facilities, deer remains are from the bones of a muzzleloader kill, bobact got into them, coyote leave scat too but seem to do it alone, apple trees were grown in with pines but I cleared them  few years ago, the forked apple is a deer magnet, the muddy runway always leads to it and I am six feet five, a touch over 180lbs and that little hoytpro hunter looks like a toy!

Elbow didn't mention the tree stand about 3 pictures back! Funny how I always notice them things, I can pick them out way to easily anymore!

That is a Hoyt Pro hunter, 45lbs@ 28" 58" long, it was purchased new in 1976 by Steve Dechen, a Sheriff's deputy and he gave it to me for free. Shoots like a dream.

You have good taste in bows.  I just bought one a month or so ago from Raineman, 50# and it shoots like a rocket.

yes it does, it is 58" though and I worry about my 31" draw hurting it, what do you think?
