Your swing makes my back hurt! haha

So you want to confirm your suspicions? Gotcha....

Reason for asking the distance?

Apparently too far for you according to some. The only reason to ever miss with a bow is because the shot was too far... SMFH. Its like some guys only hunt online and never really get out in the field. A real bowhunter knows that misses happen, bad shots happen. Sometimes guys do shoot beyond their capabilities, but sometimes shitt just happens. To assume a bad shot was due to distance is unfair and only tries to further divide hunters. I wish I had that ice that flows thru some guys veins! Then again, if it only comes down to making a bowshot and not taking in adrenaline into the equation, id probably stop bowhunting. The day I lose that feeling, I'm gonna hang it up.

Why do you care?

That sucks about your buddy wounding such a good buck. I think you did a good job describing the event without going into complete outfitter trashing. What you describe happens with lots of outfitters and it has become somewhat expected. Clearly a terrible shot that led to a deer suffering for a few days. Sucks, but it happens. I would most likely help a guy out find the buck the first day, but after that, that buck just needs to be killed to end the suffering. I'd make no attempt to locate the original wounder after day 1. I have no doubts that the guide made 0 effort to help, even on day 1. Its an expected result of the pressure guides have on themselves. It has become, Produce big animals for their clients or fade off into the background and lose potential future customers.

How long are you gonna make us wait?

360-370.

Watched a 140-150ish buck yesterday that had 0 does and exhibited no signs of any rutting. Not sure what to make of this year. Seems very spotty for me at best. Last week of December they were on fire not 10 miles from where this guy was yesterday. Probably all the trail cams out there messing up their routines I'd imagine. 😂

Is this still for sale? If so, I haves a buyer, please kindly email by friend in Texas @ imgonnascamyou@gmail.com

Sutton, Mchenry area. Have a few buddies with larger farms that we hunt Whitetail and geese on.

A few jumbo's in there. Perch might be my favorite fish to eat. One of my favorite things about going back to ND to hunt each year, are the fish frys.

Is there a price?

Time will tell, these same arguments about unenforceable, were spouted when they were gonna ban baiting. All these big bad boys who said. "They can't enforce it, im still gonna do it." Pretty funny if you ask me. The amount of corn piles I've found in the desert or forrest has declined by about 99%. Go figure....

Just thinking more like, guys incriminate themselves all the time. They can't resist the urge to post pictures online or tell their buddies about their trail cam pics.

Community policing. They can't catch every poacher either, but you are ok with that law, or should we eliminate it because they can't 100% enforce it?

Lol. There is! Go figure

I can't wait until they ban them! Just went a drinker yesterday in 20c that had 6 cams on it. Guy goes out 3 days in 3 months to check cards and knows all animals hitting that tank for those 3 months. Poor deer can't even come in to drink at night without their privacy being invaded! 😂

Same as above. My Trigger techs are my favorite.

Yup, shits gonna hit the fan after this years tag sale #'s. Non reaident draw would be ideal.

Saul Goodman.

Its hard to find a reliable stabilizer. They are usually unreliable when you need them to be reliable. Too many moving parts i guess.🤷‍♂️

That tripod Doug @ cameraland recommended is top notch imo. The VA-5 head is pretty stellar for a small head and the tripod is very lightweight. I run this as my pack in tripod and love it. If you are looking for a larger tripod to stand up, go with a manfrotto 190 or the carbon version with the 700 Rc2 or 128 heads. They are rock solid.

Looks like a really small firing pin in a larger firing pinhole.

Thanks for the economics lesson....
