    Target Bow for Hunting?

    I agree! I can’t see myself going back to a shorter bow anytime in the near future.

    Target Bow for Hunting?

    Compounds have energy to burn when it comes to killing critters… I’ve shot the SEVR 1.5 for the past few years with good success and just started experimenting with the Grim Reaper Hades Fixed. I’d love to hear your thoughts on what a good broadhead is.

    Target Bow for Hunting?

    A few years ago, I made the switch from a 34" ATA bow to a 28" ATA. My thoughts were that a more compact bow would better suit my hunting style (backpack, spot-in-stalk, etc.). But after shooting my shorter ATA bow, the Mathews VXR 28, I quickly learned that my accuracy had diminished severely...

    2023 Cold Bow Challenge Q&A Thread

    I read a fun article yesterday on Sitka’s website written by John Dudley on how to improve your groups and the benefits of shooting longer distances. He doesn’t say anything that most people in this group probably haven’t heard but it’s still a good read and I love supporting Dudley anyway I...

    2023 Cold Bow Challenge Q&A Thread

    I have a question in regards to defining MER. Is it supposed to be what we feel comfortable shooting an animal at or is it a range that we think we can shoot consistently 5 days cold but still pushing ourselves?

    2023 Cold Bow Challenge Q&A Thread

    I can relate. Baseball/Softball is in full swing here in the south and it takes up a lot of time. But that’s why I love the idea of the CBC because, not only does it get you out shooting your bow, it also brings the hunting community together and helps with keeping us focused on our own personal...

    2023 Cold Bow Challenge Q&A Thread

    I’m excited about this event. It’ll be my first year and what a better way to break in my new bow. I finally bit the bullet and swapped my Mathews VXR 28 for a TRX 38 lol. I know a lot of folks probably thinks that’s a bit silly to hunt with, especially in the back woods, but it gives me a lot...

    Hello from Louisiana

    Well fair warning to you. It’s addictive! I’ve put away all other hobbies so that I can focus solely on Elk.

    Hello from Louisiana

    I’m mainly an elk guy and have been focusing on Colorado. I have been building points in other states for elk and mule deer. One year, when my work schedule allows and I’ve found a decent deer, I want to take a crack at mule deer. It’s just hard for me to take time away from elk to dedicate to...

    Hello from Louisiana

    Yea, we are eat up with the hogs. In fact my paw-in-law always says (jokingly) “Any man that doesn’t shoot every hog he sees, deserves to be shot himself.” Yancy has been really over hunted the past few years since Covid as well. But there is still some great deer in there. You do any hunting...

    Hello from Louisiana

    We actually lived on Goldsmith rd when we lived there. I just use point wilhite for a quick reference since most folks know where that is. I hunt Richard Yancy (Concordia Parish) a lot being it’s closest to my house and my father-in-law managed it for 30 years when he worked for the Wildlife...
