pacnor saves my day!

[deadeye]

sunday was just one of those days when everything was wrong.started the day missing my alarm to a climber archery hunt,1st lost my rope,then tangled in briar>1/2 way up tree(no saw to cut branches,rope/backpack(approx 50lbs.) up then back down&back up,lots of ruckus(me)finally getting up approx 22ft when i heard something coming,buck came up to investigate the camotion eventually sniffing my back-pack & bow which lay at the base of tree ;D(true), then home to help 2 other shooters get loads for their guns(very mediocre results) so while all gear was out decided to get "woody" the sav-nor out & get sighted in @ my usual 204 yd bench with just 1hr daylight left.after getting approx on @ 100yd after lapping rings/etc,off to 204yd bench. 8 required fouling shots after a couple of adjustments.time to dial in.1st shot- wind raised some from10'00,#2 was wind calm & had the orange surrounded,had 1 more vial & bullet on the bench(why not) expecting after the days events a possible flyer which has never happened yet(sabotless). #3 wind was calm & knocked the "x" ring out. finally after a rough day a internal smile

I have had my share of those days also. Makes you wonder why we even bother. One of my repeatable offenses. Unravel my hoist rope and then forget to hook it to my belt before I climb up.
Great shooting!

davew & all , i once backpacked in over a mile & up a tree w/a climber,got everything set -up to notice my quiver was back at the truck! yep, i returned about an hour later.

Very good shooting deadeye Without all that frustration bowhunting just wouldent be the same. I also use a self climber and to make a long embarrasing story short I one had to use the strapper to retreive the bottom section of my stand. These things are a tool I would pay 50.00$ for But they sell for only 15.00$
now more tangled strings. I have used mine for about 10 years now.[img src="[/img]"]

Fantastic shooting!! Wish I could do that.

[deadeye]

billy,you can i'm nothing special.just get a .458pac,bed it,scope it w/a quality scope,275 be resized & knurled to fit w/unlubed wool wad & approx 53.5-56gns h4198. the target posted is just an typical average group day-in/day out while the barrel & plug are in the groove.@ 200 largest group has been 1.6.,smallest .8 but averages what was on the target. even a cave man can do it!
