    Any physical therapists on here? Hamstring rehab question

    Have a pretty extensive history of hamstring injuries resulting from sprinting in college. The link below closely mirrors what our rehab program looked like. If it’s not too bad you can likely jump in at phase 2 or at the very least start lightly biking to keep the tissue loose and promote...

    Wyoming Guided Elk Hunt Raffle (RMEF CT)

    Hey everyone, A friend is involved with the Connecticut River Chapter of RMEF and I wanted to post this and help him out for a good cause. This year they had a generous donation of a fully guided wilderness elk hunt provided by Hidden Creek Outfitters out of Powell, Wyoming. These guys hunt...

    What is your ideal Mule Deer Arrow Setup

    I’ve only shot one mule deer with a bow (but a bunch of whitetails) so take it with a grain of salt but I would say 450-550 grain arrow depending on your setup with a good broadhead (fixed is my preference) and 10-15% FOC is a good area to be around. Use what tunes and shoots well for you...

    Ultraview bow sight

    I don’t plan on purchasing one, think it’s overpriced, and agree saying cold, rain, and wind void the warranty is odd considering it’s expected to be used hunting, but it’s likely legal language to protect the company from customers abusing the warranty. I just checked HHA’s site and...

    Archery release for my 12yo?

    I would recommend a hinge or tension release. If I had known better or been taught by someone who knew how to properly shoot, I can’t imagine the amount of frustration I would have saved myself and how much sooner I would have been shooting better. Basically relearned how to shoot a bow after...

    Favorite Sign

    Scrapes. Need to have a licking branch and preferably have a couple scrapes in a tight area.

    GAS Strings

    I believe the ghost xv uses a newer fiber vs the 452x in the high octane strings. The XV are supposed to be a little more stable with less stretch but both receive the same pre-stretch treatment at the factory so who knows. I’ve had very good luck with the high octane strings.

    Lock on bow case while flying

    I flew with my bow for the first time last year and was also worried after reading conflicting information regarding using TSA vs. non-TSA locks. I ultimately showed up to the the airport with 4 non-TSA padlocks and 4 TSA locks so I could comply with what I was told. Upon arrival, TSA saw my...

    Long draw hunter looking at upgrading bows

    Hoyt Highline is another option that would fit you. No personal experience, but have run into a guy at the range a couple times that seems to really like his.

    Boots - Brook Range

    Trying boots on is the only way to know for sure. Get on gohunt (they have a huge selection) or another site and order up a bunch of different boots in different sizes. See what feels good and return the rest. Try out the ones you keep and hopefully they work after break-in. If not, repeat the...

    Down Boot Insulators

    I personally haven't found the Arctic Shield's to do much, but it sounds like I'm in the minority (maybe user error?). Have known some guys that use the OR booties once in stand and say they work pretty well. https://www.outdoorresearch.com/us/mens-tundra-aerogel-booties-300031
