looking for a deer software program

I'm looking for a software program where I can fill in with my daily recordings of deer sightings, moon phases, wind directions etc. I want to make a graph that would show the better days to hunt on my deer areas.

Thank you Dave

tracer nocks

Hey Butch. . I just looked up Cabela's & they have the tracer nock but so far only for standard bow nock I didn't see anything on the Eastern Archery page.
I tried lumenocks but I found that tracers better. Dave

multiple decoys

I've used 1-6 Renzo decoys. I've had different reactions each time. I had a decent buck stop & stare from a measured 168 yds. I had young bucks going in circles from 25 yds when I use the buck decoy. I put the doe decoys closer to my tree stand when using archery equipment. When using the rifle ...

tracers

Tracers have a little circuit board inside of them. They come with a small magnet that you put somewhere near the arrows flight and when the arrow passes by the light goes on, you run the arrow by the magnet to turn it off. They also have a small battery inside that powers the unit. I have 50 or so ...

tracers

Don't glue them in. That's what the O-rings are for. If there to tight take 1 O-ring off. I use mine on Beman Thunderbolt arrows. If there still to tight you might try light sandpaper on the inside of the shaft. I have both the tracers & the lumenoks. The tracers are far superior when used on ca...

Tracers

Hi HH Rich stated the problems with the Lumenoks so I'll skip that section. Tracers. I like these the best. They use a very powerful small magnet to turn it on & off. I put mine at the front of the bow. (TL4) my friend puts his on the arrow retention spring. They use 2 rubber O-rings to fill the...

feeder bucket

I found pics of the bucker/ dowel feeder in the archives. One addition is necessary. Cut a piece of anykind of metal a couple inches wider than the lid and then bolt it to the lid. I had a squirrel chisel a 1" gap on the side of the lid & then it cut a very nice round hole in the top so he ...

follow up

I shot the bow around 25 times today with the Tracers, they lit every time. If you use the velcro adhesive pads you just have to press it tight occassionaly because the force of the bow going off starts the velcro seperating a little the adhesive though is fine. The tracer goes into the 2219 ok &...

lit nocks

Hi. I've been using the lumenoks for a while in Thunderbolt carbons. When they are shot alot they start to make indentations in the the arrow from the little wire clips. I pull it out & turn it 90 degrees & start over. Once I run out of room I'll take it to the archery shop & they can cu...

Thank you all.
I think I'll save the pain of losing the arrow & just buy a couple more. Dave
