DO IT, DO IT, DO IT.... Mine was done in July 2009 at Southwestern Eye Centers in Phoenix. I went in for an exam to see if Lasik was possible for me. After the exam they asked if I wanted to do it right there and then. I walked into the office at 10 am, and was on the way home (wife drove) by 12:30pm with surgery done. Woke up the next day 20/20 and it was awesome. I am upset I didnt do it sooner. Best money I have spent!!! The surgery is a breeze, and is only 5 min long. I recommend opening a Flexible Heath Spending Acct if possible. I knew I was going to get Lasik so I opened a $1500 medical spending account through my employer. I paid a little over $50 per paycheck for the whole year for the Lasik tax free payroll deduction. I recommend it to everyone.

I have never had a problem shooting through the mesh with a fixed blade broadhead before... Just as accurate. I havent used a blind in a few years, and havent tried shooting with my new broadhead of choice: Grim Reaper Razortip mechanical. Rule of thumb is to only use fixed blades when shooting through the mesh

Stand hunting vs. still hunting (archery)
Curtis Reed replied to talltines's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
It took me a years to make the transition from midwest tree stand whitetail hunting to hunting out west. I am also from Minnesota, and have been here since 2002. Hunting out here compared to there is a night and day difference. It is sooo much more difficult in my opinion hunting a non-guided, DIY public land western bowhunt here than it is to hunt back home. -
I can't see spending $29.99 to fletch 12 arrows when I can buy 50 quikspin vanes for $19 and fletch the conventioal way. The quickfletch is a great idea but they are way to expensive IMHO.

+1 There is a guy on ArcheryTalk that sells 5 dozen white arrow wraps for $11 shipped to your door. Great deal, and they are nice wraps. http://www.archerytalk.com/vb/showthread.php?t=989880

Where I was hunting last week, I glassed a large herd of elk on the side of a huge ridge. Several small bulls and a ton of cows. Both the cows were mew'ing and the bulls were bugling.

That's a great tag!
-
Which tag do you have? 24B is a good unit, as you can find good coues and mule deer in that unit. Superior/Top of the World area all the way north into the Superstition Wilderness area hold deer. Coues will be 3,500 ft and higher, and the mulies will generally be lower. If you want to find good deer, hike way back into the superstition wilderness area. A lot of hunters don't go back that far as it takes a lot more dedication.

Bowtech's center pivot bows are second to none IMO

A 400+ grain arrow at 320+ fps.... KE will never be a concern of yours.

Scouting Camera Recommendations
Curtis Reed replied to MangeyJoe's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
IMO the new 2010 Bushnell Trophy Cams are the best camera out there for less than $300. They are small, and the battery lasts 1 year. 8 megapixels, fast trigger, great photos, and they have a built in loop so you can attach a master lock python lock to it. I chose them because I am able to get them through my job for $130/ea. I'm glad I did, sweet cameras. Here is a review from trailcampro.com: Trophy Cam Review -
I'm not sure how long the limb bolts are on your bow. Matthews manual says not to bring draw weight lower than 10 lbs below max. According to Matthews, you are running a risk if you do. But keep in mind each full rotation of the limb bolt equals 3-4 lbs adjustment. So if you want to go to 58 lbs, that is only a half a turn more.
