Then after securing the scope.. check for a diopter adjustment on rear of eyepiece. Sight through scope at a nearby blank wall and adjust diopt...

Re: Question On Brace height

Your string serving is showing wear too.
That was a high looking brace height.
A rather clean limb break.....
Get her going again with new limbs /string , and the brace height you know it needs.
Then we can see some pics of your success!

Re: Scouting Mule Deer with a Not very Good Up-date

It is fortunate you are intact. While I miss runnin an iron horse, I don't miss having to drive like I am invisible. At least you don't have to worry about that first scratch any more.... :shock: Stay safe and enjoy your run with a continuation of two wheels down. Those fine folks at the Honda shop ...

Re: mono-pod or bi-pod?

Primos trigger stick monopod for me for gun and crossbow.
I rest it lightly against a horizontal object when possible , and my leg or chair if nothing else is available.
In practice sessions , a push pull similar to handgunning without over doing it steadies it.

Re: ground pounders

Always consider your background/backdrop from multiple angles of approach and blend with it. I wrap my wheelchair with 3D diecut fabric and wear different pattern tops and bottoms. Visible top when set up does not match 3D fabric. Be/blend with your background and be looked past or through. Shade is...

Re: How to properly sharpen a broadhead?

Match the factory edge and "polish" them razor sharp. Be sure no wire edge remains. Edges can be stropped after sharpening. Different schools of thought in sharpening ,one has surgical edges and others are content with file sharpened edges to tear veins rather than slice. I prefer hemorrha...

Re: O/T - Making Venison Jerky - Looking for feedback.

Oven will work. 170 degrees F. Depending on oven ,some have to be used in "keep warm" warm setting while others need a wood spoon or other shim in door to crack it.(Safety first though!) I use soy sauce,Worcestershire sauce,a few drops of liquid smoke ,a hint of sweet basil,red pepper ,bla...

Re: Turkey day molested by the lady warden

Blind was not constructed of natural material. Natural material was used to break up the silhouette. When stated it was on property ,was that private property? We are not allowed to cut branches on state or federal in my state anyway ,that's why the question. If on private then the warden was lookin...

Re: Final Prep: Sighting In

Deviation in a shaft's straightness or fletch job will become noticeably greater with a broadhead.

My 2 cent opinion anyway.
