I personally feel that hunting has become way to technical. Baiting is just another harvest tool for those that feel the need to use it. If G&F does not want an unfair harvest advantage, then they would have to outlaw Bait, Trailcams, long range shooting, fast bows, blinds, tree stands, hunting over water, etc, etc, etc, etc. Where does it end.? Pretty soon, sportsman will be darting animals with GPS tracking devices to be able to monitor the animal 24/7, unitl hunting season arrives, then sportsman will cry foul when that is outlawed. It seems alot of hunters want the easy path to success. I do not, and will not, use bait. It makes no difference to me if it becomes outlawed. If others want to use it, so be it. Enjoy the hunt, See the forest through the trees.

I am a Homophobe, and Lib hater. People can call me what they want.

I have taken a few deer out of 30B, and know some spots pretty well, but I won't give up my hidey holes. Like alot of places, you got to get away from the roads and main trails. Lots of weekend warriors, and rock climbers, and hikers out there on the west face when the weather is nice. Don't overlook some of the riparian areas in the big washes. Lots of cover, and places to hide, still hunting techniques.

Went to help some in-laws hunting about 5 years ago. Their reason to go hunting was to get away from the wives and drink beer. They didn't like it that I made them work to get a deer. There was a whole pack of them. 2 Uncles, they're sons, grandsons, cousins. I looked like a human smuggler leading a big group of dark haired people through the bush.

Eeeeeewwwww!

Liberal tree huggers are infiltrating the FS. They will shut down the forest, one road at a time.

Thanks for the great info and opinions. I have heard good things about the bow madness, but it is nice to hear opinions from people that actually shoot this bow.

Yep. Or you can use little bolts through the holes. Just pull it tight as you can.

Excellent! I like a little longer axle to axle length. And the Bow Madness fits the bill. I am just over 6' tall. I like the one cams, as I don't have to worry about cam synch. I have a $1000 budget for new bow, accessories, new arrows and broadheads. My main concern is an arrow rest. I am not a big fan of drop aways, and the attached cable. I like rugged simplicity.

I don't have a scale

You can also buy a roll of plumbing strap? That metal banding with the holes in it.

A flash....then a lynch. Old West justice.

Excellent. Now if we could get rid of lberals, lobbyists, and the left wing biased media, the USA would be a much better place.

Sorry to hear it. I bet if about 20 of us showed up at his booth, we could get it back for you. Flash mob.

Quit shooting the small ones.

Took a friend hunting once in Unit 27. The guy had a "Bear Phobia". He was deathly afraid of bears. He thought there was a bear behind every tree just waiting to get him. He wouldn't even sleep in a tent. He wouldn't even go a quarter of a mile from a road. It was very annoying.

I didn't even apply this year. Started a new job with an end of the year completion schedule. 6 days a week, 10 hour days. No time off. I will take 10 days of quality time in January for archery during the peak of the rut. As long as the project is on time, which they never are.

That's funny. I got to the point where I wouldn't let my Dad sleep in my tent. He snored like an entire herd of Buffalo.

How true that is. When I was growing up, I was skinny as a rail. Couldn't gain weight for nothin. But once I got close to 40........POOF.!

Prarie dogs? ..Really? ....you shouldn't even need a license to shoot those little weasel's.

Took a friend hunting once. Drove 2 hours to our area, and he realized he forgot his tag at home. The second time I took him, I was tio pick him up at 5:00 a.m. Beat on his door, on his windows, and here he is sleeping in bed. That was the last time I ever hunted with him

My hunting buddy is dead. I now hunt alone,so I don't have anyone to drive me nuts. LOL I learned along time ago to never,ever, show anyone my hunting hotspots.

I know what you mean. I am 50 y.o with thyroid disease, and a bad back. Weight goes on easy, and is hard to get rid of. Somedays I feel like my old worn out truck.lol

LOL. Yep its my 4th Dodge, but this one has high mileage and has been through alot. Need a new truck, but can't afford one.

I have a1999 Dodge ram 2500 w/ a 5.9L 360 V8. I was getting all kinds of crazy misfire codes on the analyzer. I researched the problem on the internet and a common problem with these engines is the manifold,and plenmum gaskets go out and create a lean misfire condition. Spent 8 hours pulling the manifold and replacing gaskets in a 104 degree sun. (no garage or carport) and I'm cooked. Just curious if any of you guys with older Dodge Rams have had this problem. It seems to be common with people on the Dodge forums with this engine.
