Ended up going with a Hoyt satori. I like it a lot but some day I will get a one piece. I only got this strictly for travel convenience if I were traveling with my compound also.
Medium 45# limbs and 19” riser. Built some arrows up and it’s been fun to shoot so far. Ordered a string from TTT...
I’m not picky either. Although the county I hunt in MO has point restrictions on bucks (4 points or better on one side). I have learned that the hard way about setting up close to the bedding, wind can switch in an instant. It’s happened multiple times to me out there.
I guess my debate with...
The private my family has is about 50-60 acres but only about half that is setup to be hunted. The rest is cattle pasture (where I do see a lot of deer feeding at times).
The property has public along the backside where I’ve found some really good buck bedding. They run the fence line and come...
That’s really what I feel is the best route. Find food sources and bedding and roll. I’ve got a good idea of the public areas I normally hunt. Have had some close calls on white oaks near bedding.
Planning to checkout some creek bottom crossing areas too. Find narrow oxbows, play the wind and...
Last summer I Started shooting my black hunter takedown. I have 35lb limbs and have been shooting recently out to 20 yards. I would love to hunt with a trad bow but do not know if/ when I should consider increasing my draw weight? I shoot weekly and have been shooting a lot more often recently...
The wind has quite literally been harder to hunt than the deer the last few years unfortunately. I know where they are. But if the wind isn’t working for me, it’s been nearly an impossibly.
Bedding has adjacent line of white oak where that pic above was taken. Water is a year round deep creek with several marsh/ cattail zones where I’ve also found bedding right on the water (super thick head high cover/ briars as well).
They feed on private heavily especially evenings. Few white/...
Agreed. It’ll be warm most likely. Lots of private around with food plots and acorns along the travel corridors. It’s been a tough area to hunt but I know there are several really good bucks in the area.
This is early season last year. This cam is on my saddle tree and there are 3-4 good white...
Appreciate that. I agree on not seeing them in the wide open as much.
I’m unfortunately going to have to make a saddle play while I’m moving into bedding area unless I find good cover to setup a ground blind.
I have 2-3 bedding areas to hit. So if it doesn’t workout out on one, I’ll move as...
For the last 4-5 years, I’ve archery hunted public in Missouri. I have family there and the farm they live on butts up to public. I can hunt private. But I’ve been trying to get it done on public.
I’ve taken a doe or two each year. Saddle hunting or from the ground. Hunting usually Halloween...
Awesome thanks everyone. For what it’s worth my prc is 24” carbon barrel Bergara. The handloads from choice/ Barnes ttsx seem to do really well. Average 3122 with the 120 ttsx. This weekend I’ll mess around with the Berger 156 and see how we group and chrono.
I’ve got a 6.5 prc that I feel comfortable shooting inside of 600 yards. It’s currently doped with 120 grain Barnes ttsx bullets. Have taken two bucks with it just shy of 400 yards with this round. Dropped dead one shot.
I drew Montana deer/ elk combo and have been considering changing the...
Like new. Bought this second hand last year from original owner and never got around to buying the eyepiece. Excellent glass quality. Box and manual included.
