    Glassing CO Archery Elk

    I always carry my binos at a minimum. Either my 10x42 or 12x50 just depends on where I am going. Additionally the spotter is dependent on the terrain and type of hunt as others have stated. If I am going to carry a spotter, I have been using a Vortex Razor 11-33x50 on a carbon fiber tripod and...

    Victory Arrow Weight Tolerance

    I think you might be right, looking deeper at the AAE website they show a tolerance of +/-0.5gr on each vane. There is also a discrepancy on the vane weight on their website. Next to the picture it shows 8.3gr per vane but in the description it shows 8.5gr. Tolerance in the arrows, plus...

    When is it time to upgrade?

    For what its worth, I just upgraded from a Hoyt Carbon Element RKT I bought new in 2013 to a Hoyt RX7. Overall I am happy with my decision to upgrade but a little disappointed in the speed. I was getting 258-260fps with a 476gr arrow setup at 28.5" draw and 65lbs. That same arrow, DL, and weight...

    Victory Arrow Weight Tolerance

    Thanks guys, that's good to know! I am just obsessive about consistency. I am the same way reloading, I weight sort cases and bullets, throw charges on the RCBS chargemaster supreme and then check them against the balance beam scale. Part of it is to minimize deviation to improve consistency but...

    Victory Arrow Weight Tolerance

    Has anyone had any issues with the Victory RIP V3 Gamer arrows? Specifically weight tolerance. Their website claims weight sorted and +/-0.5gr tolerance but I just picked up half a dozen from my local archery shop and there is a 5.3gr difference between the heaviest and lightest. I measured them...

    From trigger-style to hand-held release

    I've been considering the same thing. I haven't gone down the rabbit hole too far yet to even understand the differences between types of handheld (thumb, hinge, etc.) I have shot Scott releases for almost 20 years now. My current, and has been for a while, is the Scott Little Goose. I can...

    Sold Hoyt Carbon Element RKT

    That's why I hung on to it for so long! I babied that bow, tune up every year, strings and cables ever 3 years. What surprised me was the Axis 5mm arrows I had built for the element weighed 476gr total and I am getting 258-260fps at 28.5" DL and 65lbs. That same arrow out of my new RX7 set at...

    Has been my go to for the past 8 years and has served me well. Just upgraded to an RX7 so it's time for me to let this one go. A few small dings on riser and a few marks on the sight tool less nuts but other than that in really good condition. ATA 30" 60-70lb Draw Length 28.5" but I am...

    Barefoot shoes for stalking?

    Yep, ugly as all get out but dang do they work! Have run these the past few weekends here in east Texas through dry leaf and pine litter and they are as quite as double socks plus waterproof through wet grass. Dont think i would stand in water with them though! I can take the insole out for more...

    FNG from TX

    Good luck in Montana. I have a mule deer tag in Wyoming and Elk tag in Colorado, both archery. For me it's a blast just being in the mountains.

    FNG from TX

    When I was in college at SFA I hunted the Angelina and Davey Crockett National Forest. Had a buddy who worked forest service fire crew and would feed me info on where they saw good bucks. Haven't hunted it since. I have a local lease for pigs and deer, nothing special but cheap and close to home...

    Backpack Fit, What Do You Prefer?

    Curious how the seasoned backpack hunters like thier packs to fit/ride for maximum comfort and weight distribution? I have a Mystery Ranch Metcalf and SG Sky 5900. I try to get most of the weight on my hips but both packs inevitably want to slide down a bit and I find myself constantly...
