    Win & Win Black Wolf after 25 year trad hiatus?

    Would a W&W Black Wolf be ok to get back into trad? I like the look and reviews other than gripes about grip; haven't touched one or any other for that matter, I'm out in the sticks here. Was thinking of getting a used one with 50# limbs but buying some 25 to 30 lb limbs to learn proper form...

    DIY bow rack/cabinet plans

    Wondered if anyone can help with a bow rack plans or design for my son's high school wood shop project. I recall seeing a very nice one posted here a year or two ago but can't pull it up on the search feature. It may have been a bit more involved than what he wants to accomplish though...

    Co 44,45, 444 wintering area/mortality

    Where do the deer from these units winter? Any reports on winter mortality for this herd? Have some serious decisions to make in the next two months. I was hesitant to even list the GMUs as it's a sensitive subject here. PM is good if this mustn't be talked about openly, or let me know how to...

    8 Colorado points and scratching head

    My buddy and I have 8 pp and had visions of a high country rifle hunt but the main goal is a decent buck and we're not opposed to other seasons to accomplish this. He has past experience with Collegiate Peaks but it's been 20+ years ago. We both have recent experience in a small part of the...

    Carry on/under seat bag

    I'm in the market for a carry on bag for a trip to Maui. My wife has a Samonite Underseater that works great for a carry on and weekend trips but I'd like something that I might be able to use in the field also. Any suggestions? I should mention that I have an exo 3500 if that matters...

    Spot light recommendation

    I need some guidance before I waste more money choosing the wrong spot light. I've gone through 2 batteries on a q-beam max million rechargeable and it's too awkward and heavy. Also had a large rechargeable gander mountain lantern and now it died. Primary use will be seeing what the dogs are...

    Need vehicle advice

    I recently changed jobs and now need to provide my own vehicle but get paid the IRS mileage rate. I've had a company vehicle for the last 20 years so am kind of out of the loop on this kind of thing. I personally own an '04 Chevy Silverado with 94k miles that I think we'll keep as I know the...

    3rd rifle Flat Tops weather

    The weather during second rifle has been pretty warm the last two years so we decided to try third season this year. This will be two weeks later than we've ever been out there and the weather seems somewhat on schedule this year. Anybody have a rough idea what we can expect at 9500-10k feet...

    Day 19 off sugar, grains and booze observations

    Yes, it's only been 19 days but it's about 18 days longer than I've went without booze since 1994 or so; sans basic training. I've been training regularly too and noticed today that my posture is much better and I feel like I'm walking very upright. I'm down to 201 lbs from 215. Would like to...

    Spine question on BE Carnivore

    I may have jumped the gun and didn't do enough research before ordering a dozen Carniovres. I'm shooting a Prodigy at 29DL/65 lbs and hopefully can get up to 70 by fall. The Carnivores I ordered are 350 spine 27.5" carbon to carbon and weigh 248 grains total. I've been shooting 100 grain...

    Silly question: Time for a hunting bow upgrade?

    I've been a Martin shooter for 25 years mostly because of one proshop owner who took the time to set me up correctly back when I was a young punk. My Martin run started with a cougar speed flight. Then i upgraded to a Cougar 2000 XRG with Fuzion cam that I shot very well. Then the proshop owner...

    Quilt pad

    I've sifted through the archives and still am a bit unclear on what I need. I'd like something packable and suited for warm to cold weather. I'm 5'10", 205 and thick in the upper body. I'm running a quilt. I'll be at base camp in a cot but will also spike out for a night or two or three. I...

    Davis Peak stove and coal

    I called the nearest source of coal near me and was asked if I wanted anthracite or bituminous (Kentucky coal). After a bit of research I'm coming up short of answers; and that includes calling Davis. I guess anthracite burns cleaner but I'm not sure of much else. Anybody have a good answer...
