WARNING - ONTARIO DRIVING

Guys, just a warning for whomever is driving. Ontario just passed new law last week on SPEEDING. Anything over 50km per hour over the speed limit - minimum fine $2000.00 plus 10 day impounding of vehicle - MAXIMUM fine $10,000.00 plus 10 year loss of drivers license. Take your time boys! 60 mile per hour (100km) is speed limit on 400 series hwys, 70 your ok any more your in trouble.

What time are we gonna meet at Walmart? Iguess it all depends on how long it takes Ray and all to get there luggage.

Thanks for the info Hunt it, I will keep that in mind. I wonder why everyone thinks I will be in a hurry??  :saywhat:    ;)    :bigsmyl:  

I promise to be good in Canada guys. Sides by that time I will have to keep an eye on Mike or Brad as they will probably be driving. I will need a little rest. A guy can only go so long on adrineline.  :biglaugh:    :jumper:  

We need some more animated gremlins, theese just fall short sometimes. LOL

Well,

Sattelite map still looks Ok for us the Herd has reached the Leaf River and are moving more southwest to get them nearer to us when we get there. Course theese maps are not that accurate and only to be used as an impression. Boney's guy up there is a better bet and he says it will be majestic. I am so ready. This last two weeks have been hell at work. Everything seemed to go wrong and I need to releave a lot of stress by "KILLING SOMETHING" Sorry for yelling.LOL   :bigsmyl:

Donny better be sure there aren't any Bou standing within a 100 yards of one you're shooting at. You're so amped you just might puncture a triple or so. You probably will have about a 36" draw the way you're going bro. lol

Yeah Dave, hopefully I won't snap a limb. LOL GUY'S ONLY SIX DAYS till we leave. I can not sleep. I just know we are all going to have a blast and kill some great bulls. I have a feeling when I crash it is not going to be pretty.  :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:    :jumper:

Well, are we there yet??? I talked to Bob Walker this morning and after we pick him up we are probably going to spend an hour or 2 at Cabela's while we wait on Mr. Hollywood Hammond to arive at the airport. Donald when you crash and come down from this hunt you will be worn out buddy. Then its Dec. hunt with Curtis to look forward to.

I don't think I can match Donald's pre-hunt adrenaline, but once we're there guys, I'm a full bore kind of hunter.

I got some seal skin today to tinker with my Zipper a bit. Seems on about 1 of every 3-4 shots I get a nock high kick on my arrows. I'm thinking my shelf material (being really worn flat) doesn't allow me much "give" and a poor release is amplified because of it.

If I'm wrong ? I'm 5 days from leaving on a 2000 mile trip with a bow that might or might not send a straight flying arroa  :o

Brad, you really need to contact Ray he has a Zipper and he darn near shoots flys off of fence posts with the bow. Ha has had it since Noah built the ark and knows all about setting it up. I honestly cannot think of a better person to ask about setting a bow up than Ray.

Brad, go get some velcro from Wal mart...and use the side that doesn't have the burrs on it (the soft piece) as your rug and side plate.

Zippers really like that stuff...I don't care for sealskin nearly as much as the velcro

Bob, If a person isn't feeling a little buzz by now he should consider golf.  :bigsmyl:
