After eating Payne's sausage I don't know if I can go back to the regular store bought stuff.

I figured out I'm a fair weather bowhunter. It's flooding here w/ some slight breaks in it....so I opted to stay in the truck and shoot a hawg if one will show up.

How much hold over is required for a 800yd shot with a 410gr arrow at 280fps? Anyone got that ballistic calculator, lol?

It's pouring here in Fairfield, no deer so far. If the rain doesn't let up soon i will be heading into town, bacon and eggs sounds good.

Rain just let up here in Montague. I am sitting on my tripod. Damn pigs broke through my fence and destroyed my feeder. Have pictures on game cam of a pretty big boar who did all the damage. I think it is time to find a hog trap.

That's it I'm out. No movement at all, cows are now around my feeder and the rain is only getting worse. Hopefully it will let up for tonight.

I'm in it to but it is just light rain in rains co. I'm in a big cedar tree so for the most part I am staying dry. The deer are not moving it has been years since I have hunted and not seen 1 deer. I guess thats how it goes.
