I thought I would add this to the pile this morning. I had to drink the beer after this find. The eye guard is almost 8"! I am glad "Grong" missed this one.

Has anyone shot the Bowtech Destroyer 350?
Bird Dog replied to couesbowhunter1's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
What broadhead are you using? I found out yesterday from bowtech there is a yolk adjustment that is supposed to take care of field tips hitting different than most fixed blade heads. Have you heard this? Thanks, Jack -

I shot a Hyot Viper....another speed bow 6-7 years ago. I could not even hit a pig on numberous days even though I shot OK at the range. I had issues like others griping the handle and the fit of the bow just wasn't right from day one. Lucky for me, it was a new used model and the original owner took it back minus $75 bucks. That bow ate me for lunch before I bought the Mathews Black Max. Shootem and if you like it when you hold it - done deal... buy it. -

Bird Dog replied to couesbowhunter1's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
Smoothest "speed" bow I have shot. I still own the Mathews Black Max II - 5.5" brace height. The destroyer to me is easier to shoot and faster with the same arrow and slightly less poundage. It has more brace height - 6" making it more forgiving to me and has 80% let off. 386gr. arrow w/100gr tip, 68lbs draw, and 315fps. 63lbs gave me 305fps. I am working up to the max at 72.5lbs. and may play with IBO weights just to see what she will do. For me this bow is a great choice but I have been shooting a very unforgiving bow. Plus, I like the quotes on the box! I just got my Destroyer 350 2 months ago and set it up for pigs. I will say that I am struggling now with broadhead flight verses the field tips for both of the shuttle T-locks and montecs of various wights. Broadheads appear to hit to the left but are flying true out to 50yrds. Any one else seeing this? I moved my sights but would prefer for arrows to hit the same reguardless. The Mathews I have did not have trouble once tuned. -
Just got back from Kansas this year and had a great trip. Here is the picture of my 8 point this year. He taped out at 127-130" I was able to hunt with my grandfathers Winchester 70 Pre-64. After a bit of a fall on my coues hunt Leupold fixed the scope and I was able to resight just in time to go again.

Looking back at Kansas 2011 made me thing about 2010 and how the years go by. Here is my KS deer from 2010 and mount. I was able to get the deer back a week before leaving this year. Mount n View Taxidermy did the job and he looks great!

When I glassed this thing up I thought initially it was part of a rib cage or something. I looked my tail off for the other side but no luck. Oh well, I measured just shy of 49".

Tires are sold pending exchange! Thanks.

I have yet to shoot a deer that has not ran off 50-75 yards. Amazing how big the bodies are on these deer.

Nolser E-Tips or other gilded metal alloys
Bird Dog posted a topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Hello all, I was wondering if anyone has loaded the e-tip bullets? Specifically, I am thinking about the 150 gr. or "new" 168 gr. in a .308 caliber. I have been using the 168 gr. .308 in CT Ballistic Silver tip with great results. I don't want to change bullets unless I have too and thought by going all copper I may get lighter bullet faster with good weight retention out of my .300 win mag. I shoot the 168 gr. CT's at 3277 in a 26" with great accuracy. -
Nolser E-Tips or other gilded metal alloys
Bird Dog replied to Bird Dog's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Thanks for you reply. I don't want to change, but with the regulations of differing states I have been pondering the possiblilites mostly. I can say the 168 CT bullets are hard and are quite accurate for me. On coues they don't wreck them ~200 yrds. which makes table fair quite nice. -
Hey Dog man, thanks for sharing the pictures. I love the dogs!

Are you ready for the long shot? I am...
Bird Dog replied to shortpants's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
I commend you for this article. It seems people don't practice and understand what is happening and too often animals are shot out of "luck" by trial and error. I guess this range has much about trial and error.
