Seeing as to how I am a fairly large individual, (will go 250-260 depending on travel and meals with clients, they all like steak) and, I like to get up, who makes a safe sturdy ladder stand that has a platform at least 16' of higher off the ground? I have looked at the Big Game stands at the local ...

I haven't tried any other brands so I can't compare but I did install BC Lumenoks in the Firebolts I'll be using for hunting this year. I installed them in new shafts that already had nocks in them so I had to remove them before installing the Lumenoks. This was simple to do and the Lumenoks work p...

I have taken three deer with the Slick Trick 125 Magnums. They do in fact hit to the same point of impact for me, (Exocet 225+Firebolts) as the filed points. All three have fallen withing sight, so trailing has been a moot point. This is my third year with the xbow, so I am using the same broad heads.

Thanks.

Where can one purchase the Angel Majesty serving material?

Guess the location of the fletching in relationship to the shaft makes no difference. Without the nock adapter, the fletching is further up the shaft, but it is only about 3/8", so I guess it really does not matter. I uniform my primer pockets, debur my flasholes and anneal every fourth firing ...

Flat nocks in standard Firebolts.

I cut an old nock from my compound days last night and threaded it with a home made tap out of a 8X32 bolt, then cleaned out the threads and glued a section of 8X32 in.

Fletched a few this morning.

Our church holds two bar-b-ques a year, and the proceeds go to the local processor. We put up enough cash to pay for 100 deer to go to the Hunters for the Hungry. Our farmers want us to take as many deer off the land as possible, as crop deprivation is a major issue here, we have too many deer. I lo...

I bought one last year that fit my firebolts, and let me use my Arizona E-Zee Fletch, but where I put it, is anybody's guess. Wife says the only thing I have not turned over looking for it is the house itself. Not only can I not find it, but I have no idea where I got it, nor can I find one via Goog...

I can identify. We got slammed last spring in TN, 20+ inches in a couple of days. Try to keep the vehicles parked on high ground.

Great way to begin the season. Congratulations!

We always bring a deer in to the "horn house" to dress them. (No "field dressing") Skin them first, using a 4-wheeler or tractor, attach deer by the head to a tie down, with the attachment 3' off the floor, leaving the back legs on to keep the body suspended till the hide is off....

Duct tape and tie wire, affectionately know as a Tennessee Bolt.

Never leave home without it!

I am very lucky with respect to hunting areas. I purchased my Grandfathers farm, 140 acres that is bounded by crop land that is in my family, my cousins work it. I have made my place the refuge, it is thick, and used mostly as bedding areas, with hard mast trees as the core. I have 40 more chinquapi...

In the State of Tennessee, this situation could have been addressed.
