I'm not sure why the image is small . . .the picture is certainly in a larger format in photobucket . . .any sug...

Trophy Hunters need not look . . .

I got my first deer with the EXOMAX225, 100 wasp and Gold Tip II. Not trophy deer by any definition, however it was the thrill of the hunt that was enjoyable. The wind was blowing from West to East when I arrived that afternoon. I started stalking on the East side of the property. I got 3/4 of the w...

The hunt is too short to make this an issue. There has to be another good spot on your 100 acres to hunt. Wouldn't be worth making an enemy . . .regardless of where he lives. You never know when you might need this guy's help. It's legal to cross bountries to track a wounded animal, right? Anyway, y...

He says the xbow was new Christmas of 2005 . . . he did not say he shot the buck in PA.

Before you call him a poacher, why not ask those questions?

I found a old velcro strap that was used on a arm sling(broke a collar bone a couple yrs ago). I took the quiver from the right stuff package and strapped it around my waist with the velcro strap. Seems to work good. I have not tested it in the woods yet . . .next week.

We shouldn't give him a hard time for being super human and not needing to see something but once. He just needs to open a thread for that 2% and leave us here to be redund...
