Two Vizslas. Roxie and Belle. Roxie has great drive and is great in the field. Belle sometimes has energy but mentally "shuts down" more often than not. Belle likes the comfort of mom lol.
Walmart's Tasco for public land. Anything private I would buy a Wildgame Innovations. They have not let me down. Also, after the season is over Walmart usually runs great deals on them.
Beretta A300 has been a great gun for me. Swings great and is not to heavy. No one needs 3.5 inch to waterfowl hunt anyways. Highly recommend especially if you can find it on sale. 4-5 years ago my brother and I both found one for $600. Who knows in todays market...... Looks like they'e about...
Gonna be crazy. Everyone got their govt checks just in time to buy tags and more/new gear. Should be good if you put in the work and have a little luck on your side.
I have had a Vortex Ranger for almost a year now. For bow hunting it is more than capable. Also used it to range Whitetails out to 300 yds. Have not had the need to use it at further distance. I love the red reticle and also the "scan" mode for setting distances from the stand while archery hunting.
