    I realize some of you didn't know that i moved last year back to Michigan..37" laker and the rainbow was average during the spring run..I was fishing the Elk River..using krocodile spoons and little cleo.Now I have hooked into some along Tonto and Haigler that were really nice too..

    Managed to be fortunate enough to get a tag and fill it...Tough hunt I was averaging 10-12 miles a day and 110 degree temps...Saw plenty of critters and had a blast when I did get to hang out with great friends...Got him Aug 27th and for those wondering it was a 100 yard facing straight on shot from my knees and the arrow went full length through the body and exited the rear...arrow kept going...thanks to those of you who gave me some tips on where to start..it was worth the effort for sure!!

    Here at Ross Outdoors..407 S.17th Ave Phoenix,AZ 85007..Wed nights at 630 pm..nothing over 30 yards and don't worry nobody was complaining about the distances and it was nice to see guys scores were just dusting off the cobwebs...It was a blast..everyone was cracking up and some found issues in their setups..so it was a good thing to do a gear check..We are going to set up more obstacles next week...

    I feel like I have to post this.Please don't wait until August to get your strings on your bows..Now is the time to do a fall hunting inventory so you aren't scrambling.Bowstrings should be done at least every 2 years if not sooner depending on usage.There is a break-in period so start sooner than later.If your bow case has cobwebs then its time for a check-up..Are your boots and camo intact?Does the release need work or replaced?Have you checked the arrows for straightness and have enough broadheads?Does your rangefinder need batteries?Did you accidentally bend or chip your bottom cam going up that hill last season?Just a few things to get checked besides strings..Please don't get upset if you procrastinate until 2 weeks before the hunt and wonder why the string makers and pro shops are backed up a bit,missing opener isn't their fault..Start now and you should have a much smoother hunt this fall.And with all the great 3-D shoots over the summer it makes getting dialed in a breeze.......Thanks - Nate

    Thanks everyone!! I was glassing the flats when he was cruising by himself.I had to run pretty fast to catch up to him..It was crazy because he wasn't paying attention as I was running as quiet as I could on gravel..I closed the gap to 300 and just kept going..Ran up to about 100 yards and ranged him..Drew back at 82 yards and drilled him quartering away,he went 35 yards and piled up.This has been the worst rut and I have been seeing lots of grouped up does with no bucks anywhere.I posted the pic and went back out to help friends but we couldnt get on anything.Its been a tough hunt for sure.
