    New Athlon Chronograph

    Mine arrived today. I’ll test it out against my bow after the CBC wraps up. All I can test it against is an old Caldwell unit, but I’ll try to get something this week.

    Boys first vehicle…..

    FWIW, I go to work and most of the time I’m paired up with a guy 10 years my senior. A new guy every week… anecdotally, over several months the average is about 50% of their kids have wrecked cars within the first 2 years.

    Boys first vehicle…..

    I looked at going this way for a while, but he drives two of our three cars, so liability only doesn’t really save us all that much. The insurance company views him as driving all our cars - I can’t just limit him to a single car. So going liability only on a single car didn’t really do a whole...

    Do ticks nest in the ground?

    I make my own. You can get 10% permethrin… Martins, I think. Get the water based. Mix it 19:1 ratio. I dip my clothes and dry them out. I keep some in a spray bottle and get them a misting a little while before heading out to top off the coverage. I went turkey hunting last week and had 21 ticks...

    Full coverage, 1000 deductible. Nothing crazy.

    Boys first vehicle…..

    I don’t think your wife has looked at car prices these days either… I was shocked when I did.

    Boys first vehicle…..

    He’s not allowed to drive it. It’s my wife’s ride and it’s the newest car we have (100k 2020). He can drive my truck and the little Corolla.

    Boys first vehicle…..

    I’m not sure that’s realistic… my son’s insurance is 2300 a year, and that’s after shopping around and finding every bundle and deal I could. Hell, USAA was another grand higher. They already have the first accident baked in. It’s crazy how expensive insurance is. He makes money, but doesn’t...

    Off the top rope!!!

    Boys first vehicle…..

    Can I be your son?!? That truck has half the miles and is 8 years newer than my truck. My son is 16 going on 17. I have 3 more kids coming after him in the next 7 years, so buying him a car would mean that I would have to do it for everyone. We have a truck and a van already. I bought a 2017...

    Leupold Broke...I was Warned

    This is funny to me… not that I’m laughing at you! My buddy has the same issue. I warned him not to get a Leupold, he didn’t listen, and less than 50 shots in and the scope is out for repairs.

    Prairie Dogs: Guided or Knock on Doors?

    It can’t fathom paying to whack prairie dogs. Go to WY. Just across the border in WY are lots of prairie dog towns I found on Onx. We hit those up for fun after we tag out on antelope. I have had ranchers drive by us while we are shooting and ask us to come to their place to cull their land. The...

    Western VA heading out West in 2025?

    I might have something going on… still waiting on all the draws to close out.

    New Athlon Chronograph

    I wonder if it has to do with spin of the bullet? That would make sense if it is always reading slow to the right and fast to the left of the rifle.

    New Athlon Chronograph

    I would expect the lesser of 1% or 10fps error.

    Athlon Rangecraft Chronograph at S&S Archery

    Can you guys do another round of testing with multiple Athlons? The 15fps error is unacceptable, particularly on archery... I get that it's a small deviation at those speeds, but for archery it isn't a small deviation. Plus the principle of the thing. I'm hoping you just had a bad unit. Did...
