Man that would be great, but am too broke to make it this year. Enjoy and live it like it could be the last hunt . kenneth

I drew a bull elk tag, a any deer tag, and an antelope tag for here on the ranch. Also headed to Alberta to hunt moose and fish in the middle of Sept. Maybe after this year I should hang up my bow and just take pictures. Planning to hunt with the bows from past Classics. Joe

I have the following tags in my pocket, in no particular order:
Bighorn sheep ewe (North Breaks)
General Elk
General Deer
Whitetail Doe (Regional)
Antelope (Archery Only)
Black Bear
Cow elk (South Breaks)
Turkey
Virginia is for lovers, Montana is for hunters! Hopefully I'll fill as many of these with my bow as I can. Just finished my osage bow (billets courtesy Osage Outlaw) and am fletching my hunting arrows tonight. Antelope season has already started - I'm slow! Elk and deer open September 5th.

Oh, I plan on it! Been shooting today as a matter of fact. I have made deer cocaine and my son-in-law has some very nice bucks on his camera. Even a black bear in Central Arkansas. But I do have a question. Does any one use aluminum arrows? I've been fletching my own wood arrows but tried a friends aluminum and they fly much faster. I hate to add new to primitive and was wondering if anyone else does.
Thanks
Andrea S:
Tiredtim, those arrows aren't flying faster because of the material, per se - a lighter arrow will fly faster out of the same bow, so I'd be curious to see the weight difference between the two. Speed alone isn't the single most important factor of a hunting arrow; momentum and force are a factor of both weight and speed. For an exaggerated example, a ping pong ball hitting a window at 100mph won't do the damage a golf ball going 50mph will. Things to keep in mind.
