    Archery Set Up For Elk

    Shot placement is more important than what you hit’em with. If you hit big bone, it won’t matter what head you have. Practice and shot placement, and don’t just stand at 40 slinging arrows. Move around, kneel down, different angles. Above all, have fun.

    How do you land on the grip or grip tape you use?

    I put hockey tape on my Hoyt grip. Seems to help drawing the bow consistently, hand doesn’t slide around on the grip. Cheap and easy to get, plus not adding to the Bowmars legal fund.

    Do you leave your quiver on or off when elk hunting

    Got an old Trautman hip quiver that I used for years, kinda got away from it and used a TightSpot. Drug the hip quiver back out and refurbished it. Works like a charm.

    Chevy Equinox

    Wife’s is a 17 with 130k on it and never had an issue. She drives like the devil is on her butt, it amazes me that it’s held up. I’m in no way a Chevy guy, have 2 F250s that I drive, but I’m impress with her Equinox.

    Copper Bullets for Baited Bear?

    I’m considering the Speer 180 Grand Slam in my 300 saum for baited bear. Short range and a big chunk of lead. Normally shoot the 168 TSX.

    How long should you hunt a OTC unit

    Never leave elk to find elk, don’t care if you’re seeing them at 1000 yards. You’re learning the area, figure out how to close the distance. Why would you start at square one when you’re seeing elk. The way Colorado is going, your unit may be draw next year. In a couple years, tags may be harder...

    Lost my Bear

    I’d be calling the local LEOs. In Illinois, the taxidermists are check regularly by the CPOs. Hell hath no fury as a lost bear skin.

    Wyoming Unit 8 Spring Bear Snowies - Looking for hunting partner

    If I knew my new work schedule, I’d be interested. Coming out of retirement, back to a job sucks. But so does boredom.

    Questions before i order shaft parts

    I use standard HITs in my 5mm Axis and FMJ arrows. Epoxy them in, next day epoxy the VPA footers on. Never had a problem.

    You have one shot, one broadhead….

    Changed my mind, QAD Exodus. Not that the VPA head is bad, the Exodus flies better.

    How bad does this look?

    First, check the ATA measurement, did the string need to be twisted. Second, I don’t know that the string is ruined. Looks like the shrink tubing is chewed up, but not the string. Third, file and sand the groove down. I’ve hunted with a whole lot worse. Dressed a Hoyt cam with a chainsaw file...

    Bear defense rifle for AK trip

    Mines not a 450, it’s a 458 SOCOM and never had any issues with it. Of course, my son built the upper and I did the lower, so we know what it is.

    Every single day. How else can you know your equipment?
