    The gutless method. Why aren't you doing it if you have to pack out?

    Regarding the proof of sex thing. Montana makes this significantly easier as the regs clearly state that it does NOT have to remain attached.

    The gutless method. Why aren't you doing it if you have to pack out?

    It looks like he is super interested in the insides of the animal (heart and liver for eating and bullet performance) so gutting absolutely makes sense in that scenario.

    The gutless method. Why aren't you doing it if you have to pack out?

    Yeah. For two people not getting organs of similar skill in joint separation there is zero chance gutting is faster. From what I see, the differentiator is virtually ALWAYS how fast people can separate the joints. That's where people get slowed down if they have less experience. That and how...

    The gutless method. Why aren't you doing it if you have to pack out?

    If people are sticking knives in to remove tenderloins without massaging them away first with their hands I can absolutely see that. I use my hands for the most part so unless the T-loin tears somehow, I'm getting the entire thing.

    The gutless method. Why aren't you doing it if you have to pack out?

    You can gutless leaving the skin on the quarters. I've seen that done when it's crazy dry and dusty to keep the dirt off the meat.

    The gutless method. Why aren't you doing it if you have to pack out?

    Gutless as I do it is to split the hide along the spine. Then peel down the legs to the bottom of the shanks. Cut that joint and pull the quarters. Remove the backstraps. Small cut behind the last rib to reach in and pull the T-loin. At some point before you flip remove the neck roast and...

    Go DNZ then. You mentioned 700 in the original post and my mind went there. https://dnzproducts.com/product/game-reaper-2?sku=%20&variationArr=%20

    The gutless method. Why aren't you doing it if you have to pack out?

    A couple of comments in another thread had me curious. When I moved to Montana a few years ago I learned about the gutless method and have done it ever since. It's clean, fast, and easy. I only cut what I am taking out of the woods. But it seems some guys call it a fad and have moved away from...

    Going to start a thread here in a minute. Genuinely curious. I started gutless when I moved here to Montana and never looked back. So much cleaner.

    Explain how the gutless method is a fad? For hunts where you have to pack out the meat there is literally zero reason to gut an animal. Gutless is faster, cleaner, and just plain better in all ways if you are not backing a vehicle up to the animal directly or after a short drag.

    I bought my son and a friend Buck 113s for Christmas last year. Great blade shape. Can't go wrong with that for $100 for a fixed blade.

    QAD Exodus tuning issues

    Paper isn't how you Broadhead tune. You tune it at distance against your field points.

    Exactly. Zero reason to take the risk with the Hawkins available. Those or the DNZ Game Reaper 2 rings are the best lightweight two-piece I think. I used DNZ rings on my Howa Mini and they are pretty nice also. Both of those are machined as opposed to the forged Talleys.

    If you are considering Talleys, don’t. Hawkins Ultralights are exactly what you want but they don’t crack.

    QAD Exodus tuning issues

    Moving the rest is exactly how you Broadhead tune. It's THE way. Consider yourself lucky that your old heads grouped with your field points honestly.

    I really like the Hawkins Ultralight rings on my Rem 700. Perfect for a lightweight rifle. I see zero reason for a pic rail unless you are moving scopes around.

    Favorite weightlifting programs

    I got back into weight lifting last summer. I jumped on the Allpro routine that is catalogued on the Bodybuilding.com forums. I found it a great way to build strength fast for someone that hasn't been in the gym in a while. I'm 5 rounds in at this point and plateauing so need to swap it up. But...

    My rifles balance perfectly like that also. Don't let him make you feel weird. Fingers go in the ejection port. With a light rifle with a short barrel and a DBM bottom plate it works great.

    Great point right here.

    Importance, or not, of 3D deer target

    So my son and I went to an archery shop in a nearby town today that had a Technohunt setup. This is essentially a 20 yard indoor bay that is like a golf simulator but for archery. A projector played a video on the screen and a laser thing senses where your arrow hits and scores. You have very...
