Mathews DXT with Bucknasty strings, Sword sight, drop away rest, GT Pro arrows, Scotts release. Use bow 90% of the time. When I tote the gun I use a 1975 Browning Belgium semi auto 7mm Rem Mag with Hornady bullets.

I normally use a Remington 700 in .308. When I get a tag I am now carrying my AR15 with 70gr TSX.

  That Remington 700in a 270  is one bad arse rifle!  Incredible range too.  Very Nice!

Horton Summit HD 150 With Muzzy 100gr 3 Blade Broadheads on a 20" Horton Lightning Strike Aluminum Bolt.
It never lets me down. All the deer I kill with it make it about 100yrds. Bolt goes straight through them every time.
