    Silencerco Scythe TI review

    Thanks for the reviews on this one everyone! I have been putting off buying a “better one” for a while now. Excited to cut some weight/length off. Will compare to omega and banish 30 cals this week on a few different rifles.

    Compound Bow Suggestions for Women

    Eva shockey is super easy to tune and a nice package all around. Smooth/easy draw cycle which may allow her to pull more weight.

    Crazy Used ATV Prices-Is This Regional or Everywhere?

    I would say typically not. Stuff sells, but who knows what the actual selling price was. my experience selling stuff on FB is whatever the going rate is, I won’t get close to that. I think the hard part is when a good deal pops up, it’s gone instantly.

    Crazy Used ATV Prices-Is This Regional or Everywhere?

    Used prices in nebraska have stayed about the same for a long time now - $2k-2.5k for older 4x4 with plow in good shape is about bottom dollar. $4000+ for newer bigger machines. Local business buys trade-ins fixes them up and sells them (does a nice job). FB marketplace is a joke. Everyone...

    Thermals are ruining daytime coyote hunting

    So in your mind there is a difference between “hunting coyotes” and “predator control”? To your point about coexisting - yes prior to thermal sights humans used other methods to control their populations (poison/traps/aerial shooting/dogs/drives/bounties). We have now crossed an imaginary...

    Thermals are ruining daytime coyote hunting

    So if a coyote eats a calf at night it’s ok, but in the daytime it’s not? If we quit hunting them at night can we just coexist and they will leave the calves alone then?

    Thermals are ruining daytime coyote hunting

    No trapping = more coyotes More people calling = more educated coyotes I doubt we see a decline in populations unless disease moves through or trapping/poisoning starts back up. If every coyote came charging in to an ecaller playing rabbit distress every time they would have been all dead by...

    Argali Rincon vs Big Agnes Copper spur style tent

    Disagree with what? I stated it’s personal preference and stated my preference after using both. Have you used a copper spur tent before?

    Short Draw length elk setup.

    Your spyder is just fine for elk! I used similar bows set at 60lbs at 27” and it kills elk just fine. 400-450 grain arrows with fixed blade broad heads. Quartering to/frontal shots always buried to the nock. Broadside pass throughs. Also watched multiple bows with the same specs perform the same...

    Thermals are ruining daytime coyote hunting

    More coyotes will become educated the more people screw it up, no question! My local area was screwed up before thermals even became popular. It will become more difficult, just have to figure out how hard you want to work at it.

    Argali Rincon vs Big Agnes Copper spur style tent

    Cooper spur is great 3 season tent, super easy set up. High elevation exposed spots with chance of high wind (40+) or heavy snow I would go with a 4 season. Just have to weigh the pros and cons of tipi vs freestanding to determine what you prefer. September archery elk I’m taking my copper...

    New to coyote hunting

    If you have a lot of unpressured coyotes. Just call them in the daytime. Calling in the dark with lights, while still learning is a great way to educate them.

    New to coyote hunting

    You will either need to buy an electronic caller or get some hand calls. Coyotes can be called in with vocals (howls/whines/chirps), prey distress (mice, rabbits, birds) or pup distress (coyote fights). Vocals and pup distress can be made on the same calls. Prey distress will usually require...

    Fencing a large property boundry

    Square wire for the part you want to keep the dogs in (few acres around house). Lots of options for horses. Pipe is the best but $$$. For horses you can get away with a fairly weak fence with smooth wire (wood or pipe corners with the rest T posts) with one hot wire to keep them off of it...

    Your current arrow is fine. If it’s tuned I wouldn’t change a thing!

    Early September vs Late September Archery

    Somewhere around the 11th-18th is when I prefer to start and plan for 2 full weeks. First half of the month is more likely to be hit and miss. The last thing I want to do is use up my PTO hunting elk that only move/talk for a couple of hours each day, so try to keep that at a minimum. Getting...

    XLR magnesium Chassis vs. Stockys M50

    I swap out barreled actions all the time, no issues, very minimal POI. I have an element 4.0. Only issue I have ran into is the folding stock freezes up really easy in the cold/wet/snow. Either freezer shut or you can’t get it to lock back into position. I would assume all metal folding stocks...

    Looking for Bog Pod Death Grip Tips

    Shooting off a tripod isn’t easy! When compared to shooting off a bipod in hunting situations, I personally have to slow down my shot process a lot more. A heavy pull on trigger, pistol grip, incorrect lop doesn’t make it any easier for me. One thing you can try is shooting from a lower...
