Hang on stand: What a bowhunter does when his foot slips while preparing to hunt deer.
Brace: What a bowhunter wears after he can't hang on his stand any longer.
Riser: What we call a hunter who comes nose to nose with a bear in his pre-dawn walk to his stand.
Trajectory: Basic angle and speed of the riser as he bolts for his truck.
Helical Jig: A lively dance, usually performed when one realizes a huge spider has just climbed up their pant leg.
Bracer: A refreshing beverage consumed at camp after a long day of hanging on stands.
Best bow I ever shot: Will be in the classifieds next month.
Shoots like a dream: Same as Best bow I ever shot.
Long Shot: 17.4 yards.
I seen: What you put on cakes.
I'm Often Asked: I'm never asked....well, maybe once.

"Likes a heavy arrow" = it's gonna shatter your teeth.... "Jumped the string" = I shot over top of him... "I scouted a lot of nice country of the other side of the mountain" = I was lost most of the day.... "Boy, I just love being out here" = we aren't seeing any deer..... "Oh look! A (bald eagle, raccoon, hawk, etc) = we still aren't seeing any deer... "I'd rather take a doe any day, as they are better eating" = a huge buck "jumped the string" early today.....

Release: The nuanced and shameless art of befriending, begging, bribing, and brown-nosing in order to keep your favorite hunting spot!

EFOC: Extra forward mass *and* ya got yourself an outie for a bellybutton too!

Great thread. Just clicked on it and have been laughing MAO. Use guys are hilarious. I'll give it shot. Weak spine-opposite of stiff spine. Occurs because you "asked" the little woman if you could get a new bow instead of "telling" her you're getting one.

Archer's Paradox: Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Work. Shoot. Etc
Cover Scent: Petty cash, credit card bonus bucks, and other financial tools used to mask the true annual expenditure of archery/hunting. Generally ineffective after reaching "full draw".
Three Under: The maximum depth of a shallow, unmarked grave threatened by disgruntled archery wives and "bowhunting widows".
