    2024 Season... Finally ready to talk about it!

    I haven’t shot Magnus since I was young and still shooting a recurve, I probably still have some of those old broad heads somewhere

    2024 Season... Finally ready to talk about it!

    I definitely will be searching for a different broadhead to try this year. Hard finding one that tunes easily, leaves nice wound channels, and has good penetration and durability

    Your Personal Wounding Rate- Archery Elk

    I think some residents just like to crap on non residents as if they are the cause of all issues. But those same whiners are probably more than happy to buy a non resident tag in a state other than their own if they can get one. But of course that’s different since they are expert hunters

    2024 Season... Finally ready to talk about it!

    Soft, cavity hit. I am not happy with the blood trail I get with these slick tricks. I have killed several whitetails using these with complete pass throughs. Blood trails are not always good. Some times fat or entrails plug the holes fairly quick, but not always. The elk I wrote about obviously...

    Your Personal Wounding Rate- Archery Elk

    There seems to be quite a few condescending opinions in this thread, many if not most feel it was simply a poor shot taken. There are so many things that can go wrong on an animal that anyone who has hunted for more than a few years has had something unfortunate happen that caused a wounded...

    Your Personal Wounding Rate- Archery Elk

    You forgot the age old complaint that you hear coming from many states that those non residents that suck at hunting are always the ones wounding animals, of course residents don’t have that problem. Lol

    There was no bone whack, it was a soft gut or muscle sounding hit

    2024 Season... Finally ready to talk about it!

    I had a similar enough experience this year on a nice bull. I was in Az hunting a waterhole, at last light a nice bull came in and began to drink, he was 44 yds( well within range), broadside with his head down totally oblivious to our presence. I still had enough light to make him out good and...

    Snake gaiters or Regular gaiters in snake country

    I asked the question as I am going to be hunting elk in early Sep in Az archery season as a non resident. This will be my first hunting trip in Az and I hear they have lots of different snakes there and when chasing bugling bulls I not always look to see where I am stepping

    Snake gaiters or Regular gaiters in snake country

    When hunting in the desert or anywhere that venomous snakes live is it advisable to wear snake gaiters or chaps and what is the difference between regular gaiters and snake gaiters? Would regular gaiters work or suffice as snake bite protection?

    AZ portals updated!

    After 16 years of applying I finally drew a unit 8 early archery. I haven’t set foot in Az for 5 years but scouted 8 then during archery season, found a spot I liked but that is about all I know about that zone. I would love to chat with anyone who has hunted unit 8 in early archery season more...

    Looking for DIY ideas , something different to hunt

    I have heard stories about these new powerful PCP air rifles in larger calibers then the old air rifles I grew up with. Some guys are sinking thousands into an air rifle set up. Personally for me the most important thing is rapid recovery of whatever I shoot so stepping down in weapon caliber or...

    I have actually tried goose jerky and it was good, but that is about the only way I have tried goose that I have liked

    Looking for DIY ideas , something different to hunt

    I agree, that would be an awsome hunt as long as it wasn’t 110 degrees out. What month do these hunts take place Post a pic of your best trophy marmot mount, I would love to see it

    Looking for DIY ideas , something different to hunt

    I’ve been hunting pheasants since The 70’s, I’m probably not quite as good of a wing shooter as I once was but I still shoot a few birds from time to time
