    Science of buck fever

    I've shot a boatload of deer with my gun and I still get an adrenaline rush when I've got one coming in I know I'll be taking a shot at. Seldom miss (doing whitetail deer drives). I've blown my load on more mule deer than I'd like to admit during archery hunting.... I'll have to do more...

    Your hunting money

    A co-worker and I were discussing the amount of gear we've acquired over the years. I had never put a pen to paper on the value of gear I've got stacked away in my little room. So one night I wrote everything down and looked up the prices. I was a bit surprised and it made me think I should...

    Cimmaron Half Nest

    I got a cheapo Bugnet tent that I've been able to get by using a few seasons. I wasn't overly impressed with the fit but i limped it along. I am now looking at ordering up the half nest. Are there any other options you might recommend before I pull the trigger on the half nest from SO?

    Anyone had a inguinal hernia? Advice appreciated

    I had mine done laproscopic. Wasn't a big deal. A bit sore for a few days, followed their recommendations as far as avoiding lifting etc. When I got back into the gym I eased into it without it ever bothering me.

    2021 Rokslide Cold Bow Challenge Question/Comment Thread

    This was a lot of fun. The windy day got I'm my head a little but tried not to beat myself up too bad as that would never be a shot I'd take in a hunting situation. Overall went "ok" 60 yards was a stretch for me with my current setup

    Arrow Tuning

    No such thing as a dumb question right? 😬 I just ordered up everything to get started on my adventure into traditional archery. I've shot a lot of compound and built numerous arrows but always picked components and cut length etc. based off software. There will be no difference for me to...

    Which Phelps mouth call?

    I personally feel I can work the gray and maverick the best from the ones I've tried.

    Curiosity...What do you think of your state's draw system????

    I get that, just me being selfish ;). I drew back in 2011 and didn't have a clue what I was doing (2nd time applying). Took my buddy out with his tag in 2018 (1st time applying) and got a nice Bull. Hopefully I will be fortunate enough to tag along on some other hunts if friends draw...

    Kifaru Shape Charge

    I've run my shape charge on my frame and wouldn't hesitate to take it out on day or an overnight trip planning on bringing back meat. With the amount of attachment points you should have no concerns with being able to secure the load. Great pack, like others have said the big brother 44 mag is...

    Curiosity...What do you think of your state's draw system????

    I am good with the way ND does it. If i land a rifle tag i consider it a bonus, archery is always there. I do wish they handled the Elk, Moose & Sheep tags differently though. Would be nice if your name went back into the pool after a certain time has passed once drawn. Sucks knowing I won't...

    Arrow Selection

    I have the same problem. I've got 2 different rampage built as well as a lighter deep impact setup. Find a trajectory you can live with and if one of those setups seems to fly better out of your bow stick with that one. I can't help but mess with arrows.

    2021 Rokslide Cold Bow Challenge

    I chose 60 yards for my MER. I will just be sending field points down range as I haven't settled on a broadhead this year. Shooting an Elite Option 6 at 80# with Black Eagle rampage coming in at 554 grains. Quarry this year will be Whitetail, Mulies and Elk. Chose an 8" target for the...

    I won a set of GAS bowstrings during the 2020 Cold bow challenge...here’s my thoughts

    I switched to GAS in 2019. I will continue to support them, great strings and top notch customer service. I had the same feeling after setting up my bow. Everything just felt rock solid and stayed consistent.

    What did you do today to get ready for archery season?

    Got all my arrows fletched up and numbered. Heading in to set my tape and look for any odd flyers at long range.

    Nice review. I'll be making the switch to single bevel this year and this is one of the heads on my radar.
