He can place that camera with confidence since he had me make him a "HUMAN" box for him.

NICE Great going. Good looking bear!

You are absolutely right, that is a sign and you should see it that way. My family and I will pray for you and yours.
-
I would but I don't have enough cameras to use one for that, was hoping I could get in contact on here.
-
Ok I'll put pen and paper in my pack for next time, thanks!

I had two cams covering the ponds two main avenues with about 300 yrds between them. The other cam was about 50 yrds down the ridge in the drainage. I didn't get any pics of them. I know he got pics of me and my buddy.

That's not a bad idea. I realy just want to talk to this guy. Does any body know this man/woman?

Yup, those bucks are just getting started to horn out.

Ya, if I only had a Turkey tag! That's the way it goes. TJ Thats forsure, I checked one of my Fav. spots from last year and all Im getting are pics of Bear. That first bear is a biggin! Yeah it is. I hope I come across it when I got a tag in my pocket and my bow in my hand. There is a bergandy colored female that I could go after. (no pics)

I actually have spots in three other units, that's why I have started this early for the Aug. hunt.

I was bouncing back and forth between them and NWTF.

Yes I am not angry , just using that as an identifier to get in contact with the owner.

I would go with 32's or 33's BFG Mud TA's

Nope your not, the blades don't lock open, but they do move open-n-closed as the arrow moves in and out of the animal. Remember those blades didn't get dull penetrating the animal cutting all they touch. The wing blades also do some of the cutting inside. I think my brother was think if the arrow came out that the wound would be open and bleed more rather than have an arrow plugging it. I will ask him about your observation I like that logic. Its clear that when an arrow is in and pushed around by the muscle that it would continue to cut. However, on the flip side I would actually prefer that if my arrow didn't go all the way through that it pull out to allow the wound to bleed....or if it was a poor shot then to pull out to allow the animal to bleed. It just my opinion but with the amount of research that goes into designing a broad head it sounds like this is something they (the manufacture) did on purpose. Elkhunter1- which broad head do you use specifically? Yes there was a lot of thought that went into the design, as for what head I use, it's the 100 grain 1.75 inch cut. "Black head"

My family and I want to thank all of our service men and women, past and present, their families for the sacrifice they have and are making. To all of the rest of you out there, "I challenge you to do the same"

I wish that muskox was mine, but it isn't. The first year my brother produced the Swhacker he had 20 hunters chasing Elk. We killed 16 with only one going farther than 100yrds, all had very trackable blood trails. The one went over 360yrds and piled up. All was recovered, my brothers and mine went about 60yrds before dropping. If you put it where it is supposed to go you will recover it. My brothers hit was in the liver.

"Place shotment" ? Did you have a long day at work.? Just kiddin with ya! That is hilarious. I would have never noticed that if you had not pointed it out. I read it and it make perfect sense the first time. Thanks for all the posts. I am really looking at these shwackers now. They look pretty good. Any suggestions on where to buy them at the best price? I never buy things online personally....I like buying in person. I have seen them at the Tucson location of Bull Basin. I have also seen them at Walmart. Cabelas carries them as well. I think Sportsman's Warehouse has them also.

Is there any difference in flight or accuracy between the Swhacker your Field tips? What grain do you usually shoot? I would like to stick with 100gr Sorry for the long wait for my response. I have no difference between the Swhacker and my field points. I currently shoot out to 80yrds, I shoot the 100gr. 1.75 inch cut. My coues I shot two years ago: I made a bad yardage assessment and hit high, he dropped. It took me over 30 minutes to dig the Swhacker out of his back when I butchered him. That head is again in my quiver.

I wanted to showcase my latest box. Another member requested that I design and fabricate him a heavy duty security box for a very expensive camera. Have a look and tell me what you think. This box has 8 inches of welded hinges, and all welds are full felds (no spot welding). There is two locking points for most size locks and a chain around the tree, or you can use two ports for cable locking the camera it self along with the box to the tree.. You can pivot and tilt for good camera angles from any tree. You can use either a ratchet strap or lag bolts to mount the bracket.
