Who is excited? There is 3 of us and we pulled a permit 1st week, 2nd week, and 3rd week. Going to be busy as heck the next three weeks. This year we bought 2 crossbows and trying this method instead of harpoons. Does anyone know if the scopes on crossbows do ok at night time with gators? I am imagining it might be a pain in the butt. Will post pictures up in a week or so as we get it done.

Oh I am excited! Between the 3 of us, we have 6 Tags this year. We are doing the Harpoon too. I rigged mine with no scope and a simple red laser pointer. My fingers are crossed. I am WAYYY better prepared this year. I still am kicking myself for loosing that 12 footer last year by not having the right equipment!!!!

I did not even think of using a red laser instead of a scope. I still have a week to get one and practice sighting it in. What range are you using? I am thinking 20 yards is a good range for sighting in the scope.
