Ugh. That was a good deal.

My suggestion is that with a bow like that you limit shots to 40 so a 5 pin sight probably is overkill as you won't need the last two pins. There's a lot more then speed that you gain with a new bow. The accuracy you'll gain with the new parrellel limbs and cam technology far outweighs the speed gain. You can get s really nice used bow that is head and shoulders better then a nova for what you probbaly put into yours with the biscuit strings and monkey tails.

I've killed more stuff at 20 yards or less then all other yardages combined so I keep it. It's not much difference in drop but a few inches on a string jumping coues deer is a lot.
-
I got my deer but no elk. I saw my brother got his elk the other day. They're kind of all over the map with those refunds.
-
I've seen that happen to deer in ND and oryx in NM from a bad freeze but I wouldn't think that would be a problem there?

Good Tag? 7 East Peaks Hunt Area 10/21-10/27 Any Elk..
yotebuster replied to Opening Morning's topic in Elk Hunting
Awesome Bulls! I'd be REALLY surprised if any of them came out of the 4th hunt though. Although the old saying "elk are where you find them" is somewhat true. Late October is truly the hardest time of the entire calendar to find a bull elk. Combine that with 50 straight days of over the top hunting pressure and some seriously vertical country and you have absolutely the most challenging rifle bull elk hunt in the state. I'd hire timberland and go smoke the first branch antlered bull you find of that's what you're after. Better yet, shoot a big fat cow. -
In my opinion that is a way way bigger bull though. His ends are still way bigger and swollen, that bull will keep adding length for a while now. Hard to tell from the angle but looks like a toad.
-
Am I off on this assumption? Wondering if anyone out there has chronological pics ever couple weeks of any Bulls on trail am? We used to raise elk so I watched them grow all summer but they were also captive so their diet was certainly different. Any input?
-
I guess I'm no expert by any means but it sure looks like that right G5 is awful skinny at the base if it's gonna get much longer then 4-5". Yes he could still add a lot of growth on his lower time length as they still carry some mass on the ends but that tail end is getting awfully thin to be adding much more on it.
-
are you calling me a liar? Haha. No. I believe the pic came from when you said it did, just saying it's hard to believe a bull would grow that fast and seem to be slowing down already.
-
Depends on the unit. Doesn't look like he's gonna grow much more then that. Seems hard to believe that he's that far along but he sure looks like he doesn't have much left. Some units and tags I'd be jacked with a 310-320 5x6 but if I had a unit 9 or 23 or 1 tag I'd be letting that old dude walk. Maybe I'm wrong and he's gonna have great big back forks and super long times but it sure looks like he's only got a couple inches to go.
-
Wow! Great deal! If I were closer I'd be all over it.

Stay at willow springs or woods canyon. That way your non fisherman can bait fish with ease. Then run up to chevelon early in the morning without them. Hike down on the upper end of the lake and fish where the creek comes in. If you want to fish moving water you can beach your pontoon and hike up the creek.
-
Chevelon without a doubt from what you're describing. It's the ultimate float tube lake! Should be pretty free of crowds too.
-
That's awesome!! Congrats on some great animals! I'm going in 2017 and this has me pumped up!!

Sounds better then the OTC hunts in all other states. I know a lot of guys who've hunted otc in Colorado and not seen an elk and doubt a 383" bull has ever come out of an OTC unit off public land in most states. Timberland outfitters was the one who kills a lot of elk up there.

My neighbor in ND puts a gallon of gas per 50gal if I remeber correct in his tractors in the winter. He says it does the same thing as the anti gel except it's way cheaper. Not sure id try that on a $175,000 tractor.

California Approves Ban
yotebuster replied to ready2hunt's topic in Political Discussions related to hunting
isnt the north worse? NO! Its all the libtards in the south ruining the state.I don't know much about California but my guess is that northern California, tucked up neatly against liberal strongholds like Oregon and Washington has its share of liberals. -
Trade for 3 acres near Rio Rico?? J/k. Bump for what looks like a cool product.

^ this. In Colorado for instance you can draw and turn back every year. You just don't get the point you would have earned that year. You keep your existing points. This is an excellent comprise as if I had an injury or death in family etc I'd be grateful to get back as many points as I could. It would also alleviate the selling thing as no one with 18 pts for elk waiting one early rifle is gonna give up being able to earn a point. It would fix the whole thing. But until the. Anyone with 16 or more deer or elk points wanna make $1500-3000? Serious. Pm me

T/C Encore Pro Hunter For Sale .50 Cal (Sold)
yotebuster replied to pwrguy's topic in Classified Ads
Is this an Ultimate? I have one and love it. I think the Remington Ultimate is almost as good and a whole lot cheaper. -
I'd help you but I'm mad you drew after only 16 years. . And you've had a sheep tag! Haha send me a text 928-240-3567 and I'll give you a few spots to check out. Been out there quite a bit and my buddy has the Archery tag. Can't tell you where he has been scouting but I know of a few other good spots that could have a nice one. My advice is to find someone with the archery tag. They will be out there chasing them and unless they're really lucky they won't get the biggest ones. Every time I've had an archery antelope tag I wish at the end of the season I knew someone with a gun tag to ground check the big one I saw. That's my suggestion I guess. I saw a big buck about a mile from forest lakes one year so they can be anywhere in there, that being said you're probably wasting time scouting the thicker stuff with a rifle tag unless you know there's a monster in there.

Is that deck built around that tree?!? Looks like an awesome place!
