archery targets

Don't know how many deer hunters are on here but just wanted to say don't leave your dee archery target outside. A deer attacked mine this morning, I'll post pics as soon as my wife gets home with the camera.

sounds like the rut is coming on. Put that target back out and arm yourself.

Just came back from a short walk through the woods. Didn't see any bucks but jumped four nice sized does. Couldn't get a shot off though. Wish it was gun season.

I here that. Just when they are running through all that thick underbrush it is hard to get a shot off with a bow.

Is that a Matthews? That's the only bow I'll shoot personally. There's nothing quite like bow hunting, especially for turkey!

Yes, Mathews Drenalin, I have removed the alpine quiver and went with the Mathews quiver, another $125 but worth it.

No wonder that deer attacked your target then. You've probably already missed him once!

Hey man I was thinking that hunting thing is over rated. There are groups of 6-10 roaming my neighborhood every nite. Between that and the grocery store meat section I keep missing the point or am missing something else?

They roam everywhere here. You just need a 6 pack and a lawn chair and a ball bat.

Thats why your the old dog to old to hunt and while your "shopping" get the extra red meat it has more hormones and chemicals in it to satisfy your needs.
Hunting is not for everyone and can never be overrated, if i was to sit in a chair and drink and swat them with a bat they could change the name baseball now there is a sport!!!

Wanted a Matthews when I got the parker but didn't have the extra $. The parker does shoot real good though, I haven't any complaints
