    A training log is like shooting a Vegas target once a week. It just doesn't lie.

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

    Amen brother!! Guts attract more flies and other pesky vermin Gutless does not mean boneless.

    Favorite weightlifting programs

    What is the OP's age? After doing a Linear Progression (Starting Strength) your age might determine where you go in the Intermediate Phase. Your ability to recover is most important which is why something like the Texas Method can totally crush the wrong trainee. Stress>Recovery>Adaptation(get...

    What if the federal government decided to start selling off swaths off public land?

    Wasn't there a Bundy family that saw no need to buy public land but just confiscate it for personal use?

    Rinehart update

    New 3D target thread after some recent discussion with Rinehart. I have a few Rinehart targets and the foam does not all perform the same regarding arrow pulling. All targets have been extremely durable. On their website some targets list Signature Foam and others FX foam or a combo of both...

    Need recommendation for Sz. 14 Wide

    https://meindlusa.com/collections/hiking/products/comfort-fit-light-hiker Meindl comes in a 14 but be sure to check the sizing recommendation because their sizing runs a little large. They have other hiker models too.

    Importance, or not, of 3D deer target

    Rinehart makes some nice 3D targets. And they also make some very average targets. You want a Rinehart that uses the same foam as the 18-1. If you are only shooting trad bows then it may not matter as arrow pulling isn't usually a chore. Antlered targets are more expensive so I usually avoid...

    Recommend a 3D Deer Target?

    Rinehart. But when it comes to deer targets you have to pay attention to which foam you are getting. You want the same foam that is in the 18-1 so you can remove your arrows in cool weather without a winch or a come-along. I've got a small 3D course in the woods behind my house and my best...

    Importance, or not, of 3D deer target

    When I started shooting a bow (1960's and 70's) we only had small square hay bales with paper plates for vitals. My dad would never let us put the plate in the center of the bale for exactly the reason you mentioned. The bale also lasted longer. Today I use a 3D target for hunting/treestand...

    Meindl MFS Bellavista, Comfort FIt Matrei Light, Comfort Fit Hiker

    The Comfort Fit insole is the first insole from any boot manufacturer that I didn't immediately toss in the trash. I really like it. Thin crappy insoles especially in high end boots are my pet peeve. If the Comfort Fit Hiker fits your foot and hiking/hunting needs it is a well made boot.

    How Many Arrows Can You Shoot

    Agree 100%. Unless we go to war with deer and elk and they start shooting back I've never seen a reason for marathon practice sessions. (Sometimes I do fall into the "last arrow has to be in the 10 ring" trap so I try to finish on a 5 yard blank bale shot or two.) Edit to answer the original...

    Spot Hogg Keeton?

    I ended up buying a Keeton. The anchor is a little different at first but it is comfortable to draw and allows my shoulder to tolerate more shots in practice. I might still hunt with the Short and SweetR. I've also tried a Stan Axis and it's real nice to draw but the thumb button learning...

    Colorado Unit 81 now a draw instead of OTC for Archery

    Is there any way to know if hunter density was actually affected by going from OTC to a draw? It seems like everyone that applies gets a tag. I guess the draw just weeds out those Texans and Oklahomans who don't want to plan ahead and apply for the draw. When I used to bow hunt there in the OTC...

    Soft-sided coolers - recommendations

    I use Polar Bear original (size 48) for transporting frozen fish from Alaska in the summer rather than the usual fish boxes. They work perfectly. Easy to carry 50# and they don't break the bank plus less likely to be stolen. Polar Bear is having one of their sales right now. 50% off. Code is...

    Scouting: Indications of an area being hunted or overlooked

    Some of the deer studies using GPS collars are pretty amazing. They show changes in deer movements beginning the day before the season opener. The studies I saw were in Pennsylvania (rifle season).

    Deadnuts Targets

    Actually the granite-like plastic on the legs of Glendel bucks and some McKenzie deer targets provided strong motivation to keep your shots at least in the body

    Deadnuts Targets

    What exactly is the purpose of antlers on a target especially paper/polypropylene or even Rinehart foam?
