I will use my Bob Lee Hunter Takedown when hunting from a tree stand and I will use my Black Widow PSA X when hunting on the ground. My arrows are 2016 XX75's tipped with Muzzy Phantoms.

I will be hunting my Northern Mist Baraga...named "Big Green". It is the only bow I have ever owned that I was compelled to name. I have only had this bow since late spring, but I am shooting it better than I have ever shot before. 60#'s @ 28", 62" long. Most likely, my arrows will be Axis 500's, with 3 yellow BIG 5 1/2" high back parabolic feathers, and a Tuff Head up front.

Rob, that is one sweet looking setup! I have tossed around the desire for one of those Longwalkers for a while now. Need to pull the trigger one day and just get one.   :D

Hopefully, two new Dryad Orions will be destined for western KY next week. Would anticipate that I will become quite familiar with these two before attempting to develop a lethal set-up.

Can only speculate, however, I envision utilizing a Victory HV 350 in conjunction with a 300 gn VPA.

Most likely the 66" Mohawk Sparrowhawk I picked up this Spring....with some doug fir shafts tipped with 190 Ribteks fletched with natural turkey fletching.

My backup will be my Robertson Vision Falcon this year with doug fir shafts and 190 Ribteks or 200 Grizzly Kodiaks.
