    Mechanical or Fixed Broadhead

    I agree with all of this. The animals I've killed with 2 blade Rages looked like a hatchet went through them. They also fly just like field points. However, I've drawn on and elk and pigs and had to let down multiple times due to Rages prematurley opening in the quiver or on my stalk. Needless to say, I'm a fixed blade guy now. If you don't move much (ie hunt from a stand or blind) I am a huge fan of Rages. If you are a spot and stalk guy and move a lot, go fixed blade. That all being said, almost any broadhead will work fine for deer. The differences between most broadheads are marketing gimmicks IMHO. I agree. When I'm in a stand I use Rage. On the ground I use Slick Trick. This is the buck I took in August with a Rage. I missed the heart and lungs. It still did the job. He ran about 140 yards. It was impossible not to see the blood trail. Bowhuntaz1 if that is your entrance hole and you missed the heart and lungs I'm curious what was inside that deer?

    Will a hawk scare off deer or bears?

    I would think that it would bother you more than the deer, the incubation period is 30 days and another 45 days until the young leave the nest so you should be ok by deer season.

    Solar Eclipse this evening

    We drove out to Wupatki national monument to watch it.. it was pretty awesome, got to see the total eclipse and the ring of fire even though that only seem to last a minute or two.

    Online draw

    Years ago the g&f used to contract with that outfit out of Nevada and everything ran smooth for years, I think they had a financial dispute with them and since then have not been able to figure it out. The deadline for the correction period is this week so if the online is not available in the next few days I will apply with paper apps to get in before the correction period.

    AES WORK PROJECT MAY 19-20 UNIT 7W

    If the goal is to cut down lots of trees why can no one use a chainsaw? Is it a liability issue? Just curious. I am going to try to make it out there, I will know by this weekend if I can make it. Thanks

    2004 Fleetwood Pioneer 18T6 Travel Trailer

    I bought this exact model trailer about 6 months ago and I love it. I looked at a lot of trailers in this size range before I bought this model and I liked this the best because for its size it has a tall ceiling (I'm 6'2"), good size shower, lots and lots of storage for its size, and a good size bed for this sized trailer, also I tow it with my Tacoma... Good luck with the sale!

    Cant figure out what this is

    +1 I would say that someone is walking their dog or the dog got loose.

    Why create a law that is an ethical issue and is unenforceable. You can't police ethics! Nothing in life is 100% and to think that just because someone is unable to recover game that they made some unethical choice is not realistic. The best hunters in the world, meaning lions, tigers, wolves etc. are successful maybe 10% of the time, to think that human hunters should never wound something is silly, its just part of hunting.

    I would still stand behind uncle Ted any day. The rule he broke in Alaska seems crazy to me anyway, I hunt several states and read regulation booklets as a hobby and I've never heard of such a law. For the charges in CA you can't do anything in CA without breaking a law that state is as backwards as you can get.

    Coyote hunting within city limits

    I once new a guy that had a similar problem, he would dig a small hole put a piece of chicken liver in it and put a leg hold trap 12" in front of the hole, in the morning he would finish it with a .22 subsonic out of a bolt action rifle was about as loud as a hand clap.

    Nevada Draw Deadline-Nevada Hunt Videos!

    Congrats on the mule deer! Was that a draw tag or a landowner tag?

    How much does the azgfd make off hunting applications?

    2 million doesn't sound worth it to have to put up with 130,000 whIny hunters!

    coconino forest changes starting in may

    99% of families camping outside of a designated fee based camping area last year were breaking this law. If you don't like to camp in a fee campground with 50 other people within 100 yards of you you are foolish to support this regulation.

    coconino forest changes starting in may

    In my mind these restrictions on National forest land are not acceptable, so what is our next step? Is a lawsuite possible as these restrictions as I see them are in direct conflict of the National Forest Management Act of 1976. What other avenues do we have?

    Change of the Rules

    I like our draw system the way it is, the largest inequity that I see is the NR cap being met in the bonus point pool. I think a rule that said no more than half of NR tags can be allocated during the bonus point round would be fair.

    AZGF what are you thinking?

    The hunt guidelines call for only a certain percentage of the harvest to be taken by archers. I think 20. If this is exceeded the first thing they do is eliminate the dec hunt, then half of jan hunt, then make it a draw hunt.

    Fall 2012-13' Recommendations

    Looks pretty good, to bad we can't bring the kofa sheep herd back and add another 10 sheep tags.

    Elk Draw Results Update

    I just got really excited when I saw I had 77 dollars less available credit on my card and was thinking antelope but when I called it was a pending charge for car insurance
