    Tips on purchasing used bow for son

    As mentioned above, spotting a cracked limb can be next to impossible. I would go to a bow shop and have him measured for draw length.

    new guy without a clue elk questions

    No bugs out west?

    I’m a fan of a tent in Colorado. Mosquitos can be brutal in the summer and even early fall. I don’t get the tarp with bug net. Seems easier to me just to have a tent that already has a bug net and floor. Some people don’t like change, and I must be one of them.

    .10 size pins

    I wouldn’t pay extra for a .10 pin. Even if they were the same price, I would use .19 for all of them. If you shoot enough, you will instinctively center the pin on your target, regardless of target/bullseye size. But, opinions are like _____s. Everybody has one.

    Copper Spur UL 2 Anyone?

    OTC Pressure

    A lot of people hunt Colorado. No matter where you are, you are likely to have some hunting pressure on public land. You will run into guys just like you who parked close to where you did, guys that parked somewhere else and walked in from the opposite direction, or guys hunting with an outfitter.
