What firearms would to take travelling around the USA, going into both anti and pro states ?
The FOPA should be good in any state. I say "should" because around here there's Maryland, NJ and NY. I wouldn't doubt you'd be hauled in and sufficiently harassed to the limit of a law suit, then released and on your way. Bastiges -

Is the upgrade to tool steel broadhead worth it?
Zwickeys are like $25 for 3. They work well and you don't take much of a hit on a loss or damage. They're pretty tough also. Been using the same 3 for many seasons -
Grousse with a bow

My bow broke.
Sounds like a great hunt, though a bummer. Still shooting the recurve I bought in '74. Stays strung all summer and hunting season. Haven't done heavy research but I've read the Samik Sage is a decent cheap bow. Amazon -
Day Pack must haves
Always a combat tourniquet, particularly in archery season. With most accidents you have time to mitigate, if you cut/tear one of your main lines, your pretty much toast. Basic first aide, space blanket, ignition sources, munchies, water or filter, good whistle, extra ammo, cordage, lighting...- Howie

Irresponsible public land shooters
Don't know your location. Here in PA. No random shooting on state public land. Only target shooting done on a range with a safe backstop. Now this means nothing to the thoughtless slobs that ya run into in every walk of life.- Howie

Vets: What was your favorite rank?
I had no desire to rank above E-5. E-6 on 1st hitch extend but I wasn't goin there. Hind site said at 22 ,making E-6 should be a huge leg up for a career but I figured I'd either end up a drunk or shot by a jealous husband.🤣🤣🤣- Howie

Pigs in Pa.
Just a thought, if tons of hunters cover every inch of our forests here and could exterminate every sounder of hogs. How is it we find huge racks and 700 lb. bear every year?- Howie

Any reason not to use Trad Vanes instead of feathers?
Work on tuning your arrows. If you find no negative effect from vanes or feathers then use your preference. The name of the game is a correct FOC arrow that flies true. Have fun and good luck -

Somewhere is a crinkle edged black n white photo from an old Kodak Brownie Camera, damned if I know where. -

Feral pigs in Pa.
Read some articles about feral pigs in 11 counties in PA. My county, Tioga, is one and I've not seen or heard of any. Just curious has anyone seen/killed a feral hog in PA. No fenced operations considered.- Howie
