    Tree watering ideas.

    Not sure where you live, but I was Checking out some ground near San Simon today and noticed that they have sprinkler systems installed for their pecan trees in some orchards. (Newer operation on the north side of the 10). Looks like they have 1/2" galvanized risers that get the heads 16" or so off the ground. They are positioned about 2' from the base of every tree, in line with the tree rows so they can still disk and spray in-between rows. Something like this should work. I bet bubblers would work with the same set up. I have a relative that uses a similar sprinkler system for his apple orchard, but he has above ground 2" hdpe and larger sprinklers on a 40' grid. Works good for him set up with an electronic timer.

    Binos-Let's hear it...

    That's a tough one ........ If you have the $$ to spend I'd get the Swaro 15's and not look back. If you are on a budget, since you already have a spotter I'd sell the 10's and add a little $$ and get some 12 x 50 razors. Depends on how much weight in glass you are willing to carry as well. I'm actually looking into selling my 15x50 vipers and buying a pair of 12x50 razors....

    Hybrid or Character..? (lots of pictures)

    Ok picture # 6 looks like a Coues on the left and a MD on the right. Were these bucks together? That MD has points coming off like a WT but, I don't see anything on their racks that would make me think either are Hybrid. Nice bucks!

    Non resident changes

    How so Sneaker? 5% of the 10% that were allotted to NR hunters just got put back in the random draw. So wouldn't that give residents with max points more tags to get a crack at? I think its a good thing for residents!

    10x42 vs 12x50

    If I were to carry one power of binos for all applications I would choose the 12's. I have a pair of 10X42 Nikons that I love to carry when archery hunting. I can go light, free hand easy and have just the right field of view at close ranges. On the past few rifle hunts I have been on I have just carried my 15X50 Vipers and have been happy with them. The extra 3 or 5 power is nice. Most of the time on a rifle hunt I find myself sitting and glassing more and haven't used the 10's hardly at all. For me free handing the 15's is tougher but isn't bad if I practice or lean on a tree or rock. 12's are a happy medium. You can always carry a spotter if you really want to count points etc.

    Scope help please

    I have the Vortex Viper HS LR 4-16 X 50 FFP. Comes with an MOA Target Turret for elevation (no windage). I absolutely love it. If you plan on shooting past a couple hundred yards weather its at an animal or a target get a scope with an adjustable turret. They are actually really simple to use if you make a drop chart for your round or get a custom dial made. The advantage I like the most about shooting an adjustable turret is taking the variable of holding over out of the equation. Much more accurate at longer ranges. From past experience I have found that shooting with a BDC Reticle you must shoot with it at the highest setting in order for the hold over ticks to be accurate, they are great don't get me wrong just have other variables to deal with. Just my $.02! Cant go wrong with Vortex! JS

    BROADHEADS

    One foot was how far off it was at 50 yards. So I readjusted my sights back to where the field tips were hitting the bulls eye, then bought some 100 grain Slick Tricks and shot them out to 60 yards. They were matching point of impact with the field tips. Thanks for all the input and I'm not going to discount suggestions that I might have a little buck fever.............hopefully my next trip out I will have better luck.

    BROADHEADS

    Thanks for all the suggestions. Looks like Slick Trick's are getting a lot of positive comments. Might have to look into trying some. I have another question to ask..........In your experience how do helical fletched arrows shoot compared to straight fletched arrows? Both with fixed blade broadheads. Seems to me that the fixed blades on the broadheads would have an adverse effect on twist of the arrow with helical fletched arrows.

    BROADHEADS

    My bow is brand new and should be in tune. I paper tuned it and my arrows are flying straight. Its a 2015 PSE Bowmadness 34. 27" draw set at 68 pounds. Shooting 400 spine arrows with 100 grain tips.

    wtb a rangefinder

  25. I'm sure there is a forum on this out there but I couldn't find it. After lugging a custom build .300 win mag for the past few seasons, I'm thinking of trying to find a light weight rifle that is still accurate at longer ranges 600-700 yards. Thinking 6-7 lbs with bullets and a scope. Anyone have one or have any recommendations? I'm thinking possibly a 243 short mag or a 270 short mag........? I'd also like to find one out of the box rather than a custom build. JS
