    Polaris has new Sheriff in town

    Wait until you need to buy oil, parts, or cut a spare key and find out literally everything is completely proprietary.

    Axle to Axle Advantages?

    The 29" mathews has a higher IBO speed. It's not just the ata length difference, they made the cams themselves harsher to pick up about 10 fps more over the 33 inch model, the stiffer draw cycle probably has more to do with that than Ata length. Bowtech is making 28" bows extremely smooth but...

    Axle to Axle Advantages?

    I think unless you hunt ground blinds exclusively there's no reason to go to a real short ata bow. I shot a 30" ata bowtech assassin for many years and it was fine. I now shoot a 33" ata bowtech sr350 and i enjoy shooting it more. I cant say it's technically more accurate or whatever but I shoot...

    Any Bronco Sport owners here?

    My wife and I have been thinking the same thing since they came out. There's the bronco then there's the little version that doesn't even look like a bronco. She drives a 17 escape and me an 05 f150. The bronco sport is like the jeep renegade or liberty, not THE jeep which would be the wrangler.

    Burris veracity PH and Trijicon Acupoint opinions

    Trijicon is top notch quality. I would buy more of their scopes but I'm married now. Moneys not as expendable as when I was 19

    Renamed: crisis averted

    I had that on the back glass of my f150 in high school. Did indeed whack alotta deer and stack them after butchering. I'm sure I was the but of a few jokes though. Kinda how I laugh now when I'm at a stop light and see guys with huge Cummins or Powerstroke stickers all over everything. In all...

    TTSX 185gr vs 210gr??

    Whats the minimum impact velocity on those two? I do think coppers gotta have some speed to it to expand. If you know the minimum velocity, use a ballistic calculator to make sure at the muzze velocity you have you'll still be over the fps you need at 400 yards. If you are, I vote bigger because...

    Retire the switchback?

    It could very well be your bow. I had a bowtech assassin that was 12 years old. Last year it fought me absolutely ridiculously. One day I'd shoot tight Groups to 60. Another day all arrows would go right. Adjust sight. Next day arrows still went right. Adjust sight. Then they'd be good. Then...

    Charlottesville, VA?

    The hardest part with public in VA is they are arse holes and don't let you shoot does on public land during gun season except one "doe day". Problem is once the ruts over seeing a buck on publics like seeing Bigfoot. Which means If you want the best chance of a successful hunt you gotta be able...

    Charlottesville, VA?

    I agree. Best way to go is get on Onyx so you can see all the national forest. VA has a ton of national forest public land to hunt on. And the pressures probably died down alot too. Most folks hunting public like rifle season/early muzzleloader. And I'd Also agree with staying west of the blue...

    Reluctant participant in archery season....

    The issue with folks with no injuries whatsoever or other physical reason to not shoot a regular bow just going and getting crossbows, is your defeating one of the whole points of archery season. It's supposed to be a season for dedicated folks that are willing to put in the time and effort to...

    Reluctant participant in archery season....

    Congratulations! Glad you were able to connect with her! Ive found bow hunting aint like riflw hunting, just because you have deer close to you does not guarantee your getting one. I use schwackers too. I try to tell everyone I can about them. They are crazy effective and fly great I too...

    Variation in initial/max weights for reloading manuals

    Don't read my above post as an advocate for irresponsible loading but that both books will have been published with pressure tested safe load data. I use the book with highest powder charge without concern, but do still keep safety in mind and check carefully for pressure signs. Actually my 7mm...

    Variation in initial/max weights for reloading manuals

    I use whatever publicly published accurate tested data is available, have a few different reloading magazines with lots of loads in the back. If there's a discrepancy on a certain load between books I use the one that let's me use more powder. Still start a little lower and work up looking for...

    Montana - Ballot Initiative would allow Montana Landowners to Hunt Without Permits

    They should be able to. It's ridiculous they can't currently. Virginia you can hunt on your own land or direct kin's land with no hunting licenses. It just has to be the actual hunting season.

    175 ELD-X or 175 Nosler ABLR

    In my experience the regular accubonds (160 gr) are explosive, I shot a ram and did not even get an exit hole. Same size animal as a whitetail in a bullet advertised to be comparable to a swift scrirroco or partition? I quit shooting them as i could get much higher BCs with at least similar...
