Thanks to all who have voted. Please keep them coming.
I am amazed so many hunt with wood shafts. Combining both modern and self made wood they are just a few % points behind carbon. Tradition at it's finest!!!

Well, LAST year, apparently I hunted with a bow that did not shoot straight because I miss 3 deer.  

This year, I will be using a 56" 56# Treadway longbow pushing chundoo shafts and 145gr Ribteks which hopefull will help put some backstraps on the grill.
