    let's hear about your packs!!!

    I'm using a Kifaru Late Season and a Kifaru Duplex Frame with Longhunter Lid and Cargo Panel. Either way I'm set to pack meat on my first trip to camp if I kill something. The Late Season won't carry as much as comfortably as the Duplex. That thing is like a Cadillac!

    Memorial Weekend, Which Rim Lake?

    Sorry I asked, sometimes I gotta wonder about this site! Negativity seems much more the norm nowadays rather than an exception!

    Dear America

    That would have been the LA riots in 1992, not the Watts riots in 1965.

    Chambers Bowhunting (hog hunting)

    I read numerous reviews on this place, unfortunately they were all over the place from really good, to really bad, and anywhere in between. I guess it really comes down to each individual's expectations going in. This seemed to be the case for most operations when I did extensive research. I couldn't really get a comfortable feeling to lead a group anywhere without some personal experience first.

    Nice Gobbler! Good Luck on the Buff!
  6. Don't let some of these guys and their pissing contest run you off David! They mean well, just go off on some tangents once in a while. You've come to a great place to get info. Keep the questions coming!

    How Do You Dispose of Old Boat Hull?

    Give it to someone who wants a raised garden bed, which seem to be the rage right now.

    Archery Only Buffalo Hunt

    2, LOL! But I'm a resident and have a chance at ANY tag in this state, except for Desert Bighorn where I have reached my Lifetime Bag Limit.

    Archery Only Buffalo Hunt

    Archery only means archery only, but I appreciate the suggestion otherwise if it was any weapon.

    Tips for consistency?

    I'm going to take it a step further back...Are you certain your bow is set up correctly for you? Is the draw length correct? Is the weight easy to hold? Is the peep set up correctly? Form issues are a huge next step. Grip must be consistent from shot to shot or your arrows never will group. Same goes for anchor point. These are non-negotiable. It really helps if you are not torquing your bow, but first and foremost is consistency. The next think I would maybe look at is tuning. Is your bow tuned to the arrows? Are your cams, wheels in time/sych and within spec for your DL? DW? Does your set up require tiller or yoke tuning? Does your rest require microtuning? Are you certain there is no rest contact with your arrow after release? These are all good things to think about if your shooting is not what you would expect.
  11. 6A is a big unit. What are the odds of bumping into him unless you intentionally go to areas you know he hunts? I wouldn't worry too much about it, but that's just me.

    Keep the Faith! Hebrews Chapter 11 and also 13:8: "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever".

    2015/2016 Hunt Recommendations

    I've seen this data for Sheep but no other species. They generally fly the units to do surveys every three years I believe.
  17. I'll be in town on Friday. I hope to bump into you and others Dan!
  18. The folks that manage the Molly Butler Lodge also rent properties. We rented a beautiful cabin a couple years ago from them and had a great time and it wasn't too ridiculously priced for a long weekend. The place was well maintained and very comfortable. It was called the Braided Rug Cabin. There are quite a few others to choose from. Might want to take a look.
  19. I do better adding up 10 yard increments rather than 20. Stump shooting practice really helps. Other than that I agree with your methods. Good Luck Bruce! Nick

    green tip ammo

    M855 is simply the military's steel tipped ball ammo. It has a fmj with a lead core and a steel tip. There is not a steel rod through the entire length of the projectile hence it is not a true armor piercing round. It weighs 62 grains. It has a green tip. NATO designation for the same projectile is SS109. It is a cheap, inexpensive round to produce. The 55 grain military ball ammo with a fmj and lead core is the M193. As mentioned above all the fuss is mute now since the ATF announced it has pulled back on its proposal to make it illegal. All it did was move a whole bunch more ammo into the hands of gun owners and made the merchants who had the stuff on hand a ton of money. A great resource if someone wants to learn about .223/5.56 ammo is the Ammo Oracle on the AR15 website.

    Gun Prepper (being prepared)

    Having the stuff to survive is one thing, knowing how to use it is another. Practice as if your life depends on it, because one day it might. Sounds like you're ready to rock! I'd be happy to have neighbors like you Zeke!

    Expired

    I have the Delta/Mackenzie Javelina target because it is not too expensive, gives me a great representation of my nemesis quarry, and its easy to move in and out of the garage or out to the field to shoot. I've had it over a year now and it's held up pretty well to 3 shooters. Try to keep it out of the elements to make it last longer.
