An interesting and comprehensive study from Wisconsin. https://dnr.wi.gov/About/NRB/2019/October/00%20Tuesday%202019-10-3A%20Wisconsin%20Crossbow%20Report%20Final.pdf "The preponderance of the evidence from these multiple lines of inquiry suggests that all-inclusive crossbow use is not currentl...

What to do in response: First: On the original post, there is a link. Upper left corner "Sign In". You do that the same way as signing in to your BC Hunting Account. Then you can cast a vote for any and all of the proposals, and comment after you have done so. Important Step. Second: Write...

Ya I don't get it . If your only reason is that a scope makes it more efficient at making a killing shot and all that matters is making a good shot then we should all be hunting with modern firearms as they are the most efficient. You are quite free to give up your scoped crossbow and use only your...

Hello all.😀 Been a while. It is true I no longer build custom arrows. Which was not for the money. There was little to none to be made most times. I just loved doing them. Thousands of them. I still have records of all arrows made and details so if anyone wants to have some matched they can at leas...

However you want to gloss over it, the effect this will have on the ground is to increase wounding and loss rates. No other way around it. Period. If the number of harvested animals goes up to ...

Already some rather significant inroads have been made behind the scenes in determining just where this BS originated, and who supported it. There will be some surprises in store for some once that has been collated for all involved. Can't say much more yet, but there will be some rather pointed pub...

Hidden among the many proposed hunting regulation changes for the future in British Columbia is a proposal to effectively BAN the use of scopes on crossbows. Here is how it reads: Scopes on Bows during Bow Only Seasons Regulation Number: 2020-0-05 Status: Proposed Region: Province-Wide Regulation Ty...

Toughest hunt so far ever for us in this region. :wtf: Kind of like the aliens scooped them all up as we are only seeing ~ 10 % of the "usual" numbers despite a mean amount of miles on the boots & trucks. Did manage to tip over a fat and sassy 2 point on our founder's B-Day (Bill T tha...

Annual migration to the Okanagan's late archery season tomorrow.
