Shedcaching could catch on!! Great deal here.

If only I were that good at judging Antelope!! Toughest critter for me to judge.

I need to purchase a new pair of snake gaiters, and was wondering what most of you guys use? The area I will be hunting this year is thick with rattlers and I do not want to take any unnecessary chances. My online research seems to point to a brand called Turtle Skin gaiters. They seem to be very light weight but also good protection against strikes. Do any of you have any suggestions?

Thanks for the replies. Turtle skins look awesome, just kinda hard to spend 140$ without having some knowledge of them actually working. I hope I never have to find out if they work, and I have been lucky so far, but last year I got a few scares on my antelope hunt and I do not want it to happen again this year.

So is this really a donation? Curious if my tax guy sees it that way. I just got an email from my archery shop advertising a hunt in texas that is 100% tax deductible due to Mathews offering the hunt on behalf of one of their charities. Makes saying yes to spending money much easier when it is deductible!

Wac em' pro staffer here. Love their heads. Fly like missiles out to great distances with fantastic penetration and easily changeable blades. From the factory, I think you will notice that they are one of the sharpest broad heads out there. I have taken a bunch of animals with Wac ems' and have been very impressed with my results. I shoot the standard 3 blade 100 gr triton. They are spot on field point to broad head point of impact.

One from this weekend.

81" left horn. if matched somewhere around 185-190" Stud buck!

If I were you, I would hope that you did not get put in. If you have a credit card statement to prove you put in, but their system has no record, I see a tag in your future. I believe it happened either last year or the year before to a person or two.

Shuttle T makes great broad heads. If you want another option, try out Wac ems'. They are very similar to shuttle T, and have proven to be deadly.

Why do some of you use different heads for different animals? I see a lot of people that use fixed for Elk and mechanicals for everything else. If your fixed blade kills elk, it will surely kill smaller game. I guess I just do not understand the thought process of constantly switching broad heads. If you think your expandables are not strong enough for elk, why have confidence in them for smaller game? There are lots of fixed blade broadheads that fly like missiles out to great distances. I shoot fixed blade broad heads because I found one that works and has never let me down. Love em'!! I think 90% of expandables will get the job done as well though, just IMO less moving parts = less things to worry about. K.I.S.S.

WIMP!! J/k I started wearing the monster fanny by badlands over 3 years ago. Best thing I have done. It is very easy to head back to the truck/camp and grab a nice frame once the animal has been shot. No need IMO to carry all the extra bulk and size unless you are planning on staying in for a while.

This thing should be gone at this price. Have you listed on craigslist yet? If not, do it. I sold my old yota in less than an hour. Lots of people are looking for older 4x4 Toyota's.

creed_az_88 lets see the video of a well placed shot and not a dead animal.

Bear

$500 +/- Resale on used bows really stinks. Bow is $800-900 new and quiver is around 130$

Going to be funny!! We are going to see lily food plots in the middle of the woods. Nice looking bull!

Good comment Maverick..... Keep drinking the Kool-Aid. Just answer the guy's question and do not say people who buy tickets are waisting their money. This is not a Hoyt vs. Bowtech Debate. Back to original question: I say go with the Knight, good bow and many people would like to own one.

check gunbroker. Seems to be only place I can find it regularly. Price is about 20% higher than normal, but it is in stock.

Well I got my comparator, and checked my previously loaded rounds. I must have a consistent arm throw. Over 86 rounds, My deviation was .002. With about 70 being all the same. I do not know if .002 will really make a difference, but I am going to use those to practice with first, and use the ones that were all the same for hunting. Here is another question for you guys. I ordered my new turret for my new load, and was curious what an acceptable deviation in Muzzle velocity was. Thru 16 rounds, I had an extreme spread of 26 fps and most were within 13fps of each other.

So I am fairly new to reloading, and I am curious as to what most think are acceptable COAL to maintain good accuracy. I have noticed that even measuring berger bullets, I can get anywhere from .000-.008 difference in overall length. So I did a little research online and found a Hornady comparator. Do any of you use a comparator to achieve optimal accuracy? Most people say that measuring COAL is not near accurate enough and the use of comparator is needed to achieve accuracy. What are some of you more experienced reloaders using?

Mulholland is a great guy. When I was younger, my parents did all the stonework at his house. Nothing but great things to say about him, and I even got some autographs from him. Other athletes with money have not been so kind to the subs....

I found some varget online, but boy did I get hosed!!! I am ashamed to say what I payed for it, but it is out there.

It is called TDS reticle. Great Scope and good price.

Dang it!!! And so it continues. Hope they get this under control ASAP, good country right there.
