Lighted nocks vs FOC vs arrow weight
Once you get past 150-175gr total weight up front, you’re winning in terms of arrow stability and penetration. (With carbon arrows). Everything past that is good and great and better and no reason not to. But it ain’t worth measuring. All of your reasons for going heavy up front make sense. Do... -

truck bed camping--bug netting for open tailgate?
Besides the steep price for what you’re getting, you lose a lot of room due to connection inside and the slope, when compared to the DAC tent. Having said that, you’re definitely getting watertight that way. My DAC is out for delivery today so I’ll see what it’s about. The answer to all of...- KyleR1985

truck bed camping--bug netting for open tailgate?
There’s a dozen on YouTube. As it comes, if you can’t set it up in 5 minutes after the first try, something’s wrong. I intend to have a much tighter cleaner pitch, so I might have a little more time or effort. But shouldn’t be too bad.- KyleR1985

How to Incentivise Restraint
Wait this is for 300 acres low no fence? I retract my plan of holding peoples money and keeping it if they shoot small deer. New plan: have better friends, or lighten up a little. Wanting to shoot big old deer is fine. Wanting it so much you lose sight of the scope of control you have over...- KyleR1985

truck bed camping--bug netting for open tailgate?
I ordered one of the DAC setups a few days ago. Plan on whipping out the sewing machine to tailor it exactly to my truck for better fit and seal. I also don't want bungee cords flapping and rubbing on my clear coat, so I'll be working on a better guy out system. And will probably build PVC...- KyleR1985

How to Incentivise Restraint
Charge an entry fee/deposit. It has to be an amount that hurts to lose for the person losing it. That might be 5k it might be 50k. You hold that deposit until the person no longer hunts there. They get their money back when they leave the club. If they shoot a deer that can be objectively...- KyleR1985

How does everyone pack there Leuko tape?
On chapstick. On trekking pole. On quiver. Around a lighter. I always have one of those with me. And I usually put it on before I leave for a backcountry trip. And usually that prevents me from needing to deploy during the trip. But if not, I have a few wraps in all those places.- KyleR1985

Truck bed storage
Remington 82 Quart WEATHERTIGHT Storage Box, Store-It-All Utility Tote, Black, Pack of 1 https://a.co/d/9nWEtZz I bought a four pack of these off Amazon in 2017 - they were IRIS brand. 100.00. Don’t see them anymore. But after I bought them, I liked them so much, I saw these in Academy and...- KyleR1985

40-50 degrees?
If I have up to the hour weather and know it won’t be below freezing, I have camped with my big Agnes McKinnis liner bag, a cheap down blanket off Amazon, and use my puffy as a pillow where the hood goes on my head too. I’ve had an occasion where I needed to wake up and put the puffy on fully...- KyleR1985

Classified deal goes wrong. What do you do if you were me?
I buy insurance for sellers protections. You’re exactly right. And I don’t take a refund for any used gear for any reason, unless a new buyer can be found, and the buyer then deals directly with that new buyer, with my only involvement my original ad. I assume that over the course of my...- KyleR1985

Classified deal goes wrong. What do you do if you were me?
Nothing about this deal is surprising or an outlier. The last half of your assessment is the only important part for you, my man. You mismanaged your expectations of online stranger dealing, the usps, and PayPal. Once you get those expectations in line with reality, it’s smooth sailing...- KyleR1985

Classified deal goes wrong. What do you do if you were me?
Any time someone complains about the cost of shipping I think about this. The price we pay to have an army of people and a diesel truck and jet fuel airplane deliver our ridiculous stupid special package across the country in 3 days is absurd. Whether it’s 15.00 or 500.00. It’s still a bargain...- KyleR1985

Classified deal goes wrong. What do you do if you were me?
Insurance at usps only covers lost and stolen. Not if it’s damaged due to your packaging. You’re shipping heavy metal objects in a cheap envelope instead of paying extra for boxes and padding. Why doesn’t really matter. A stabilizer turning into a torpedo out of an envelope is not surprising...- KyleR1985
