Hey, has anyone heard from Rik Hinton.....?I was thinking about his posts on the old Hill thread. He had great tales and good photos.......
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Wow for the 3rd time this year I've had deer within 25yards of me and not one presented a shot. Yesterday I had several gobblers around me and I didn't see any last turkey season.

I use a SafariTuff; sort of a 'plains style' in modern dress.
 
I am thinking about getting a leather one, like the one Raptor Archery sells.

I use my back quiver during the early warmer season but, was looking to go to a side type quiver during the late season. It can be pretty wet here in Oregon sometimes for the late season and I want to keep my fletching dry plus have quick accessibility. I really like the plains style quiver.

I shot with a "plains style" style for the first time last weekend.  My review to the owner of the quiver was that "when it worked, it worked. when it didnt, it dropped arrows on the ground".  I think a 3 point harness would hunt.

Congrats! I hit the woods today for the first time post prep, but the wind was really swirling around, and I soon gave up seeing anything from my ground blind. I did see great sign all around including a promising scrape line, very clean and well used.
