Its like riding a bike man! Youll be ok, but I know that feeling.

I used to shoot eveyrday. I just dont have the time to anymore. I feel guilty when I dont shoot.

Shoot at least you been there I am new to the bow hunting world and am excited I just sighted in my 20 yard pin because that's how big my back yard is. I still need to set up my 30 40 and 45 pins and practice all this week and get a pop up ground blind

I work hard, drink a little and hunt when I can.

3 day training for Scouts opening weekend. Crazy I know but I've passed on the training a couple of years due to the weekend it fell on. Time to bite the bullet. Already went to the first weekend of it. It will be worth missing the opener. But I have plenty of vacation. I may be off a lot in October. whistle

Shoot, I picked up my bow for the first time since August and grouped from 20 to 50. Which at 50 yards it has got to be a dandy for me to consider throwing an arrow that far. Im ready

Pick a spot. Stay calm. Follow through. Post pics.
