Not much chance of catching a weather break here in southern Tennessee. The heat is bad for fishing and we could really use some cooler temps as deer season approaches; opening of bow season is this Saturday (22nd).
This will be the first season that I’ve hunted with a bow (actually cross-bow) and was looking forward to dropping a monster. That’s not going to happen any time soon as the bucks will stay well hidden away until the weather cools. Next week (below) shows some moderation.
On the upside, the cross-bow I picked up throws bolts down range at 370 FPS. That’s a blistering speed for a $300 bow. It came with a inexpensive scope but will still group three bolts in an inch at 30 yards.
