    Yoga

    Who does yoga as part of their training? I started today and all I can say is I will keep doing it! It is way harder than it looks and I can see it as a way to relax tired muscles after a day of bushwacking.

    Bow quiver or something else?

    I bought a new recurve last summer and have always used a back quiver. I don't see me dragging around a heavy leather back quiver on a backpack hunt. Trying to decided on a limb bolt quiver or a light weight quiver I can attach to my pack. What do you use and way do you prefer it?

    Blue tongue disease

    My area got hit hard with the drought the deer took a beating. Anyway hunted 2 days with my daughters and what is normally 10 to 15 deer sightings a day was 0!!! Should I even take them again? I don't want them to get so discouraged that they give up on hunting.

    Solid anchor

    Just curious to hear some anchor points others use. I have always been in the corner of the mouth but during actual hunting situations I tend to draw longer and always pick a spot at the bottom of the chest to compensate for it. I'd like to find a rock solid anchor.
