I feel your pain. Our club, I have been in for 3 years, got notice to leave the main tract (3,000 acres) this week. The clubhouse and all facilities are now gone. I went looking and found another club slightly smaller but a lot less $$$ and joined it. I can get all my dues from the other back. It su...

Same sentiments here on sports people. Really good ones are few and far between. I watch the Super Bowl and that's the one and only game I watch all year. I wouldn't walk across the street if it was free admission to see these thugs. I think with one of his buds getting a plea agreement and another ...

Well over on the anti-xbow site they have a different worry. The state forum, Michigan, is worried that since this is a go for the bucks company now running it they will be inc lined to push for legalization in more states, starting right at home first. More states would indeed increase profits. Cou...

I was shooting the target I had fine with a Tenpoint (313fps). Then I got the new Desert Stryker. It was going through a pretty new layered one from Bass Pro and then on through my back stop target, another 12" or so and sticking out the back 2-3 inches. I had both targets stacked together. No ...

When you watch the TV shows you don't see that many spooked by the draw. Usually it's well before that point they sense you or something isn't right. While starting the process of drawing (standing up, moving around) they get to the point they see enough movement and it's over. But in reality it was...

Yep makes you want one made out of cast iron. I would be pissed too. Things like that bother a lot of us.

Thought you would get a kick out of it! LOL I posted in one of the now removed xbow threads that I only go there for comic relief and to make myself feel smarter. Way smarter! They have all the excuses. Isn't there a finite number of deer there you can take per year, all weapons combined? So what do...

Paging Woody......paging Woody

Was looking at one of your favorite anti sites in one of the most vocal anti state sections. They were moaning about the article in Petersons on xbows. Then they said stand by, Woody and the xbow hoards will mysteriously appear. Same forum a few posts up they post that the state is issuing more antl...

Typical of bathroom quality sports mags. Point, counter-point. The blog then takes it's predicted path. Some for, some against and as always "let's get ready to rumble"........ infighting, name calling and then the page slowly goes to hell. So much for good intent. Or was it?

Now is a good time to hit Ebay for a double Bull blind. Deals aren't on there every day but if you stick it out you'll get one. I bought a damaged T5 on there that was new in box for just over $200. Sent it back to DB and they fixed it for free. No idea why the seller didn't do the same but he didn'...

I've shot a number of turkeys and a few deer from a Double Bull blind. DB makes the best and they hold up. I shoot mechanicals through the mesh and they do pretty good out to 30-35 yds or so. We have a number of places here that have no trees so a blind is the only way to hunt it. Here's a link to a...
