    Broadhead Flight Issue

    I had ordered 2 boxes of slick tricks and none of the heads would screw into any of my arrows. I didn't know until I tried using them outside of my return window. I had ordered them from amazon.

    Thanks, this is the info I was looking for. I will be out in mid-September for my first elk hunt. I will start looking at the zone in greater detail.

    Thanks, yeah I am overthinking this to be honest. I am just not real familiar with sliders.

    Question about broadhead tuning

    No, I understand that aspect, I was just wonder if there is any difference when using the slider sights. Maybe I am just over thinking this lol! I had them impacting the same using the other sight. I guess thinking about it more, it's the same process.

    Question about broadhead tuning

    I had my bow setup and broadhead tuned and decided to change things up. I switched to a Fast Eddie 3 pin slider. I have yet to sight it in and am excited about doing so. The thing is, this is my first slider sight, and I am curious about if there are any differences in the broadhead tuning...

    OTC Honey Holes

    Not trying to hijack the thread. Without getting to beat up here, what types of terrain/map features does everyone look for on a map when finding areas to look at? Ridges, saddles, depressions, ect. I am just trying to learn. Thanks.

    prepare for backcountry

    I do jiu jitsu during the week mixed with mma and striking classes. Next month, I'll break out the pack and start hiking. I should have pretty decent cardio by Sept. Although, the altitude will get me because I am in Ohio.

    Aerostat Down 7.0

    After more research, I did go with the Xtherm. Thank you for the suggestion. Once I put it in my cart I ended up with a 25 percent discount so that was a nice surprise.

    Aerostat Down 7.0

    I'll have to take a look at that. I am looking for a decent price without going too high end as this will be used for this coming Sept trip. I don't see it getting to much use after that until another trip out west.

    Aerostat Down 7.0

    Does anyone have any experience with this sleeping mat? Seems like a good deal and what reviews I have found are pretty good. There just aren't many of them. https://www.backcountry.com/mountain-equipment-aerostat-down-7.0

    Heated Jacket

    I used FL furnace base layers, the milwaukee then the catalyst jacket and uncompaghre. That got me down pretty low in temps. I have upgraded to the solitude set this year so I don't see myself needing the milwaukee much. I will continue to use it around town.

    Heated Jacket

    I have used the Milwaukee Heated Jacket the past 2 seasons, I also have their heated hand muff they used to make. Both have helped me when it got down really cold.
