No they didn't go up. I bought my app's last night, and I had it up to $100 too, at first. But I didn't want to spend that much so I deleted a few of them and got it down to $60.

Some will be happy to know I'm not applying for sheep again this year. At 1 in 600 odds, I don't really feel like I'm giving up a lot by not putting my 16 points to use.

Bobcat, since you are a youngster, you do not have to spend $$ on over 65 apps.

I am working on talking the boss (wife) into letting me invest in a bow. I've got the muzzy and modern, now I just need a bow setup with a 31" draw... looking into the new hoyt charger long draw to stay a little on the cheaper end
