Where are you located?

One of the most under rated 4x4's out there. I wish I could snatch this up.

Went out with a great friend yesterday to try our hand at calling bears. Well it worked. I ended up arrowing this beautiful sow at 25 yards. Sorry for the sideways pic. The acorns it this area we unbelievable, she was in remarkable condition. Fat as can be.

I will be getting a new bow this spring. Due to shoulder issues I will also be reducing my draw weight by a significant amount so that means the pile of axis 300s I've been shooting for years will be significantly over spined. So, looking at the Easton site this morning and man a lot has changed in arrows lately. What are you guys shooting these days? 340 will probably be my new spine.

Yeah, Its a great bow (Hoyt Vulcan) and fine for hunting, but I've had it since '06 anyway and its time to upgrade. The draw weight is usually fine if I only need to fling an arrow or two as in a typical hunting scenario but years of construction have taken their toll on my shoulders and they are asking for a break. My next bow will most likely be a Prime, and I'd like to be in the 60-65 lb range. Id like to stay with an arrow in the upper 400 grain numbers. But it will depend a lot on how it shoots.

draw length is 29. 80 lbs.

Great buck Dennis hope it all goes well tomorrow.

Nice buck Dennis. Were you down there with Goodman?

heck of a gift.

Ill take it. I sent a message.

This spring I'd like to start reloading, what would be the basic equipment for a beginner? I will be reloading for my rifles almost exclusively.

Wow, Some really great and somewhat overwhelming information. Lots to consider.

Does anyone know, how does SKRE compare to the other high end camo on the market?

I was once a 7 - 8. Hunted every thing I could for as much time as I could get. Scouted religiously and was out in the field every week even if it was just a half day. Fast forward to now I'm hovering around a .5 - 1. If I have a tag I'm usually able to dedicate a weekend to it maybe three days. I mainly just focus on deer. Scouting is a rarity, I mostly just go somewhere close to the house and wing it. My success rate has tailed off accordingly.

Back when I used to put out cameras, all the ones I had stolen were on water and always stolen during some other season, usually dove. Last one was by an adult and a young child judging by the footprints they left behind.

Great article! I've just about finished my bear from October and it has been the most delicious game meat. I've made sure to cook it till it reaches 150 degrees internally. I do have a question though, do any of you make jerky from you bear meat and how do you do it? Is the freezing for 60 days adequate?

Cheers!

If i buy it for deer and draw a tag, then kill in August on the archery hunt I can use point guard turn in my tag and then its given to the next person in line?

Its going to be a bad one this year. Everyone please be careful.

Congrats a million times you two. Well done.

So non hunters are still allowed to put cameras at tanks?

There needs to be more training for LEO's on this issue. I had to help a DPS officer dispatch a small bull on 87 once. He was unaware of where to shoot it, nor did he know what do do regarding a salvage tag. I guided him thru the process and both issues got resolved. It sucks to have something like that just go to waste.

Not sure how my wife will feel about me dragging the oxy/acetylene tanks in the house, but from the looks of that roast it may be worth it.

Excited to see the new broadheads. Congrats on the business venture.

Thanks
