I'm shooting a #50 Bear Supermag. It's prob more like #47 at my draw. I'm shooting a 504gr Goldtip traditional 500spine arrow cut to 28" with 225 upfront. Not sure what head I would use. For whitetail I've got the 4 blade Magnus stingers. Ones with replacement blades. I've really wanted to...
Good luck, only suggestion I have from watching my dad hunt with his xbow is to practicing stalking and shooting. It's much more difficult to maneuver than you think. Also, it's heavier than a typical lever gun. He also had a learning curve stalking with the xbow because it's wide instead of...
Hi Justin. It was really gracious to offer to let me tag along this year. I'd really like to take you up on that. What unit will you be hunting? My phone number is 469-358-6319 if you want to call or text.

Hello all! I came across this forum while searching for info on DIY elk archery hunting. Seemed like knowledgeable folks, so I'm really hoping to learn a lot from you guys. If I can get myself figured out I'm going to try and do a solo OTC in Colorado in mid September. I'm a pretty experienced...
