    Stick on elevated rest vs shooting off the shelf

    I shoot off the shelf. Simple, never breaks down. I once borrowed a bow that had a spring flipper rest and I only knew the flipper was broken when I knocked an arrow to shoot a pig. I had to rest the arrow on my index finger at roughly the level the rest was at. The pig still died.

    Schnee Boot Sale

    Yeah I noticed that. Too late now, only 3 weeks out from the hunt I wanted to use them on. I'm considering it a case of 'I wasn't meant to get them'

    Calculating backcountry miles

    Ha ha. That's good going. Every time I hear someone say, "I did 24 miles on my elk hunt", I smile and think it must have been some nice mild country.

    Bullet choice for... Squirrels.

    My .22lr is most accurate with SK pistol match special. It's a LRN ammo. For hunting I turn them into hollow points with a 'waltz' die that I made on a lathe. It swages a hollow point cavity in the bullet while simultaneously expanding the bullet to .225" Accuracy doesn't suffer and I'm free to...

    Podcast topics
