    NV or AZ?

    Just for fun, some of us in Phoenix bowhunt javelina. There's some turkey here although not a tremendous amount. The dove hunting is fantastic though. You can even find some duck hunting if that's your thing. Lot's of illegal immigrants here though, and border-crossing type crime is in the...

    Swarovski Z5 vs Nightforce NXS

    I went to Cabelas with the exact same decision to make. Nightforce was so heavy couldn't pick it. Also Swaro seemed brighter. Haven't hunted with it yet though.
