Re: 2023 NW Oklahoma Fall Tom
That looks like Thanksgiving dinner! Is that an Eastern, Merriam's or Rio Grande? Beautiful bird whichever it is.

Re: Catfish heads
We used to only see eagles in the winter. The water above the locks and dams on the Mississippi would freeze and the turbines in the dams would stun fish coming out of the flowing water below the dams. (Mostly migratory) eagles would come down to feed on the stunned fish. Now we have eagles year rou...

Re: Nice eight with my Remington 7 mag this evening...
That is an objectively beautiful buck! No exaggeration necessary on this deer. He really is a dandy!
Congratulations!

Re: I swore I wouldn't....
That's a great looking bow. We all understand the need to make unnecessary hunting and fishing purchases. I have seven shotguns and I'm about to buy an eighth. I could easily get by if I only had only one if it was a 12 ga. with choke tubes, but what fun would that be?

Re: Excalibur prolonged accuracy
I've found the same thing every year. I shoot my bow when the season nears and it's always right on. Another thing I've noticed is that at 20 yards, 100 and 125 gr. heads (on the same arrows) seem to shoot the same (both in the bullseye). There is just a little difference at 30 yards.

He looks more than "semi decent" to me!

Re: Freezer Queen and a lesson learned
It doesn't seem like your hit was especially bad. You have the deer and she died quickly. It's all good!
Congratulations!
Congratulations!

Re: Broadheads.
This subject reminds me of discussions I've seen on which rifle caliber is best for whitetails. The truth (as far as I'm concerned) is all (or nearly all) of them. Anything from a .243 (maybe a .223 or .222) up to a .300 mag.is close to equal. The key for all of them is making a good shot. The same ...

Re: Check this out
It's probably too bad that they were only using a .22 rim fire (which can be lethal but is more easily stopped by body armor). They are still young enough to contribute to the gene pool and we can do without their future contributions.

Re: It takes a special kind of crazy.
I just checked the latest forecast for our opening day (Sept. 15). It calls for a low of 53 and a high of 78. That's better than most years and I hope it doesn't change. I intend hunt a stand that is down low near a creek. Calm mornings tend to be a little cooler there and it could easily be in the ...
