West Texas Free Range Elk Hunt
Great story and hunt, that is an awesome bull! I'd put him in the 290"-295" range in terms of gross score, very big for a 5 point. -

Revic Acura S80a Spotting Scope Review ***Updated 10/22/22***
Would you say the Revic s65a would be a good deal for its price point at $1,100? -
Did any of you guys go directly into big game hunting as opposed to small game hunting first?
At 15yo I hunted for the first time shooting my first mule deer. Since then I have become a big game hunting addict. I hunt Elk, Mule deer, Whitetail, Pronghorn..etc. I have no interest in small game or waterfowl with the exception of turkey but even then it will take some time and motivation to...- Aerosith

Springfield 2020 Waypoint in 300 Win Mag and 7mm Rem Mag listed as coming soon on a few websites?
I have one and it is an awesome gun, with the right factory or hand loads you can effectively go past 500yds on elk. -
What Sleeping Bag?
Stone Glacier Chilkoot 0... Excellent sleeping bag! Though I concur with the others on here you can't go wrong with Western Mountaineering or Feathered Friends.- Aerosith

90lb Hoyt Ultra?
It just depends on how often you are shooting and if you can actually handle the weight "not all shoulders are created equal" . I shoot maybe 500-700 arrows per year at 82lbs, I can't imagine that is worse than shooting 2500 arrows per year out of a 70lb bow. You also have to realize that modern... -
90lb Hoyt Ultra?
I agree with you that it doesn't take a beast of bow to kill an animal, I was just sharing my results with a less powerful setup. I can't wait to see what results I get with the new setup. -
90lb Hoyt Ultra?
My first bull shot at 22 yards, perfect double lung heart shot. 70lb bow, 530gr arrow @277fps. Full pass through, I found the arrow 20 yards past where the bull was standing. -
90lb Hoyt Ultra?
I think you misunderstand my point, and the gun analogy absolutely applies. There are two bull elk 700 yards away you have a 300prc and your buddy is shooting a 7mag. Both shots hit each elk right in the shoulder, which bullet caliber would you expect to penetrate better? I am not denying your... -
90lb Hoyt Ultra?
Next month If I can arrow a bull I'll post up the pics and the results. -

90lb Hoyt Ultra?
Would you rather use a 308 WIN or a 300 Win Mag to kill an elk? Of course a 308 can kill an elk, heck thats what I use for elk. But a 300 Win Mag will always out perform a 308. Bullet selection and ballistics are what matter in terms of performance on game. I use an Iron Will s135 Snyder Core... -
90lb Hoyt Ultra?
My goal in shooting high poundage is to ensure as much penetration/performance as possible, not ego. Pulling 82lbs is very easy for me and not an issue. You never know when you might make a bad shot and I'd rather have as much going for me as possible. As for arrow spine, I had some 250 spine... -
90lb Hoyt Ultra?
How does tuning an arrow to a bow change make a big difference in speed? I thought speed was determined by draw weight, draw length, brace height, and arrow weight? -
90lb Hoyt Ultra?
I find this hard to believe.... can you please provide evidence of this? The discrepancy of 50 grains higher and 10fps faster on nearly the same cams doesn't make sense, they have nearly identical performance specs. I have an 80lb RX-7 ultra set at 82lbs, 31.5 draw, with a 552gr arrow @290fps.
