always start from the beginning. first thing is checking your cam lean. bowtech is known for sending bows out all out of whack. cam lean will determine string tracking and center shot. after that you can set center. check center with an arrow placed on the riser next to the arrow on the rest...
while I enjoy reading all this, I can't help but put my head down in disappointment. this thread was nothing more than a test. the fact that any of us responded with guilty or not guilty proves there's no such thing as an impartial jury.
for those of you who need to hear the evidence, what...
I get a chuckle when I picture some of you guys breaking 5 laws on the way to convict someone for a law that benefits no one and that no one wanted.
you can mistake a person for an elk and go home but god forbid you mistake a dog for a dog, off with your head.
this country is sooo twisted.
that...
lol, look, I stated there's no debating most people shoot better with a long ATA. you cannot look at target bows and decide they're better just because they are labeled as such. you cannot look at an Olympic archer and think you can be him/her just because you use that bow. ATA is not the...
it all comes down to what flavor cool aid you like. there is no such thing as a longer ATA shooting further or more accurate. A bow is nothing more than a tool, an inanimate object. the fact that some people shoot longer bows better cannot be debated but it comes from the shooter, not the bow...
we dont really know, but the way I read it was the guy was asked nicely and rather than just allow the retrieval he did all this stuff to ack a certain way. the owner could have just said go get your deer but please dont hunt or come on my property again. the OP was not hunting on his...
we don't need them here either, can we send them to mexico?
not that I think that instance is good either, I do agree with you. but this thread was not that, it was about a guy who clearly was an ass and went out of his way to show it. and no, I'm not saying any of what's been posted is ok.
go with the grendel. a 6.5 bullet is just that, it doesn't care if it came from a creed a swede or a grendel. there is no difference to the animal either, so long as you choose the correct design and velocity for your intended range. having too much power is worse than having just enough, you...
have you checked scope, mounts etc. or changed scope? possible bedding issue, torque issue or barrel channel? just thinking of little things that could be missed.
on the ammo side, I've seen strange things before. maybe get away from the 175 gn bullets and try some on either side of...
ok, I see you just want to argue. that's cool so here's what the DEC has to say about it. argue with them instead.
There is no requirement that signs be "seen," and in fact, the land is still posted for a period of one year even if the signs are illegally removed by unauthorized persons the...
im gonna be the odd one out and ask you this. have you considered that the lack of accuracy may be from something else? long jump doesnt always mean poor shooting. you stated you had a load that grouped good, but then it went bad, so maybe you have some other issue.
also, have you tried...
I stand corrected, the law as I remembered it stated it was unlawful to prevent the retrieval of game. I also remember the DEC standing for the hunters, but I guess things changed.
apparently, you are also wrong in that it doesn't matter if its unposted, unfenced etc. DEC current stance is that...
in NY, you can enter property to retrieve game without permission. you cannot sit there and field dress it, you must leave right away. if a landowner denies you and gives you a hard time, the DEC will come and retrieve the deer.
a lot of states have that law, as it is impossible to control a...
you are correct in that. we can choose where to live, but someone shouldn't be told they have to live somewhere just because you say so if they want to hunt elk. I do not live in CO, yet I hunt there, and signed the petition to help res. enact change. so what would be the difference if I did...
add some more sticks and have a natural blind. then when he comes out to yell, offer him a cup of coffee and tell him to whisper so as not to alert the deer.
you could also just call the town and complain about the unsightly pile of crap in the woods, that will solve the problem quietly. for...
you guys with this ridiculous statement. what would it change if everyone did move to CO? not a damn thing. I'm no Einstein but explain how having more people move there will equal less people being there? you know what else would fix the overcrowding problem? birth control.
you stuck an arrow in the offside shoulder of an elk and the arrow broke. this will happen every time with every arrow made. the fact that you took that shot 3 times means you pick that shot, so maybe aim for a different spot on the animal or be happy you got meat for 40$. the location of the...
ive heard dawn cuts grease out of the way. wash in dawn with hot water a few times, this will get the grease out. the smell comes from bacteria so baking soda in water will help with that. after that, leave it outside for a while.
