No,its a yamaha rhino.The Polaris are great utility and hunting vehicals,but the rhino is geared more for the fun factor,and bringing along a friend.

Muzzle loading season opened here seen several small bucks spikes, and some fork horns, we have a 3 point rule here in Ar.  Missed a large hog because of a new T handle I installed on my ram-rod  it is one of those things that screws onto the ramrod when not in use it sits under the barrel but sticks beyond the end of the barrel, when you fire the rifle you can see where the sabot hits the extension causing the bullet to go way high, no longer on the ramrod in fact it probably will never be found again :o  JIM

Bow season opened this past Saturday, but I hadn't sighted in my bow so I didn't go out.  Sunday hunting isn't allowed in this county, but I went out and sat in a tree on Monday.  I saw a gray fox, a hawk, chipmunks and squirrels, and 13 antlerless deer. 

Three of them walked right under my tree stand, but they were really small.  Probably just got rid of their spots.  Some of the does were decent, but it's too early in the season to settle for one of those.

It rained all day on Tuesday, and I won't hunt if the blood trail might be washed away.

Looks like the deer population in West Virginia is still out of control even though they have a very liberal harvest limit on antlerless deer.

Keep your broadheads sharp!
