I second that. Even years after kicking the habit you will get the urge to start it up again. like my dad... been a recovering bowhunter for 25 plus years and one year out with me and now he is looking at bows and putting in for archey tags again... I blame Hoyt, Mathews, PSE,...ect. They get you in hook you then just keep selling better stronger products. sounds a lot like the big tabaco company's in the 70's I think i'll sue them and get millions. Who is with me? lol

Or get a new bow out of it at the very least.

I got a diamond outlaw. sorry i haven't responded i've been away from the computer with holiday stuff. but did a lot of research and found the outlaw for sale with upgraded accessories for $325 and so I couldn't pass it up. I got all my arrows and everything and plan on starting my hunt jan 1. I will post some pics as soon as I figure it out

oh and by the way thanks for the encouraging words and I will have fun that is one thing that is for sure. I have a question for you guys, I got a limbsaver stabilizer and was wondering if it will be fine. do different stabilizers make a big difference or are they all pretty similar? thanks guys

I use a longer stabilizer. A lot of them are just vibration dampners, they don't reall stabilize. I think what you have is modular, so you can stack them. The longer they are, the more accuarate you can be at longer distances.
