looks pretty interesting but not sure how well it would actually work http://www.bowbug.com (http://www.bowbug.com/)

very interesting indeed. sure wish it listed a price, because i know a few bowhunters that really need this. the range of 150 yards seems kinda weak for the technology we have today imo.

Hit'em good and you won't need a 150 yard range. Not to mention the weight will throw off accuracy and it does nothing but promote laziness and lack of preparation.

Its listed at 199.00 right up in the right corner...... Practice, know your equipment, your effective range, AND hit em where youre supposed to and you should not have to track too far!!!:) ( False sense of security and promote bad shots that shouldnt be taken in the 1st place. ) -Bob

No way


Guys are worried about there arrows touching their rests, and they are sticking 20 different noise dampners on their bows and now electronic tracking devises. :lol: :lol:

how did those indians ever kill anything without all this stuff, o yeah they were real hunters.

they look like junk, my advice would be to stay away.

Practice makes perfect . Stick em' in the boiler room and you won't need any special devices or gimmicks .;)

I don't think this would help me at all, except I will find my arrow quicker. Mine go right through the deers. Waste of $200 as far as my situation goes.

Agreed! Practice hard in the off - season and it should carry through during the season. We waste enough money on arrows and broadheads and other archery items. No need to waste more on this gimmick!

Double lung is he way to go ! Make your shots count when you have them, and you'll have no worries.

I agree whole heartedly, practice practice practice! There's no need for these gadgits.


However a few are assuming they stay on the arrow. When the real idea is it attaches itself to you knock point and then attaches to the hide of the deer on impact. It has a couple of stickers on the nose of the bug. So it doesn't matter if your arrow goes through the deer, the bug was already applied.

For $200 a bit pricy, however for a lot less I might consider trying one. When your driving your car, car insurance doesn't make you a reckless driver does it? Things happen when your hunting, no matter how much you practice.

Of course it really all comes down to arrow flight, I wouldn't give that up for anything. IMO

If I do anything, I would get lighted nocks. Pass through it is easier to find the arrow to check the blood. If it doesn't pass through, then you have a glowing deer :-)
