So here goes: I've gotta get my new bow dialed in. And since I've never used a climber stand before I need to get started practicing now so I'll be ready and safe when opening weekend rolls around. How bout you guys, what did you do today?

When I got in from work about 3:30 this morning I built a string for Wade's Z7. He's bringing his and his son's bows down Friday afternoon to have them restrung. Reptar, Hoyt3006 and Sappsman are coming down Sunday afternoon to have their bows restrung as well. Never fails, as soon as they have the deer show up in Birmingham, I start getting buried with string orders. "I hate rude behavior in a man. I won't tolerate it." Captain Woodrow F. Call
