OK, I guess anything could have problems with ice and stuff. I haven't done it yet, but I'm know I'm going to have to have a Guardian. My only concern is I won't beable to put a Muzzy on it. I do love my Muzzy. So, I have to start looking into other drop aways. Len showed me today what he'd put on it... sorry I forget the name, something to do with LIMB or something like that. He put one on the Guardian while I was there. It seemed to work fine.

There's something about a 2 foot cord that just doesn't look good to me for a hunting setup. Waayyy too much room for error/failure while in the stand.

Good deal, Germ. 14 degrees when I took my QAD in the second to last Saturday of the season. Worked FINE!

I shot my first 3D of the season, Friday evening. Only 27, there....and I finished second....and I had a FIVE on one target[:@]. We had 20 targets. 1st shot was a turkey in strut @ 43yds. We also has a woodchuck facing straight at 34 yds. Kill zone looked like a tennis ball!...lol

It was fun, though......I hope you had fun.

Oh yeah....it was 70, or so, where I shot! (indoors)!
