    What side bar stablizer should i get?

    My current setup has a 10" bee stinger, so I'm trying to figure out what to do. Should I get a 8" sidebar or use my 10" as a sidebar and buy a 12" front bar? Also seems funny to use different types of stabs on one bow... Seems like most folks aren't using the sport hunter extreme and switching...

    WTB Looking for a Leupold VX-3hd 3.5-10x40 CDS-zl with Firedot

    I'm looking into getting that very scope. I'm assuming you didn't like it much since you're looking to trade it, but how do you like? How much do you want for it?

    WTS Leupold VX5 3-15x44 CDS-ZL2 Firedot

    When you say faint marks do you mean scratches from cleaning with a shirt or something rough?

    Leupold VX3hd Questions - 3.5x10 or 4.5x14 ???

    This was my first year hunting with a rifle and I figured out I need a better scope. My Nikon is terrible in low light. I think I've settled on the vx3hd. I'm shooting a 270 and think the 3.5x10 should be plenty magnification as my 3x9 worked fine. Is the 4.5x14 overkill for a 270 or is it...

    Good scope for my 270 deer rifle?

    Deer season just ended here in California and I'm planning on upgrading my scope for next year. I have a Savage 116 with a Nikon Buckmaster 3x9x40 - It really sucks in low light. Where I hunt the farthest shot would be around 300 yards, but most shots would be inside of 150. I'm currently...

    Mora Knives for Hunting?

    I liked my 511 so much I picked up another mora. I got the Pro C. It's basically the same as the 511, but has a wider blade and a rubberized handle. I like that it has a little more belly. The 511 weighs 3.9 oz with sheath and the pro c weighs 4 oz with the sheath.

    Mora Knives for Hunting?

    Anybody on here use a Mora for hunting? During my research most people seem to use them for bushcraft and talk about how they would be a good hunting knife, but don't actually use em'. I finally picked up a Mora after years of hearing about how great they are for the price. I picked up a Mora...

    California Inland Blacktail Rut - Questions

    Thanks for all that info! I definitively have a lot to research, but man I'm excited to have an opportunity to hunt the rut here in ca. It makes sense that the tactics in the east would work here too. Like you said people rarely have a chance to hunt that late in the season.

    California Inland Blacktail Rut - Questions

    Hi y'all, I've looked around online, but can't find what I'm looking for. I finally drew a tag and will be hunting during the rut in Norcal. My question is can you rattle or call blacktails? I talked to the warden and he said it doesn't seem to work like it does on whitetails. He also said the...

    Best HOT Weather Long Sleeve Hunting Shirt?🔥

    What's the difference between the ascent shirt and the light weight hoody? I see they're both for hot weather, but the ascent is more money.

    Best HOT Weather Long Sleeve Hunting Shirt?🔥

    Hi Y'all, I hunt in Northern California during archery season when it's 90 - 100+ during the day. I'm looking for a new shirt this season. I'm thinking the sitka core lightweight hoody or the Firstlite wick hoody. I also like the Kryptek button down, but can't find any reviews... I've been using...

    How do you adjust your bow when switching from wrist strap to back tension release?

    I ordered my first back tension release a few days ago and haven't been able to find good info on how to adjust my bow to the new release. I normally shoot a wrist strap index and will be getting a hinge delivered Thursday. I understand how to anchor, I just don't know how to adjust my bow...
