    When to quit?

    If misses are that big of a factor that is where I would start. Why are you missing? Over confidence in shooting ability, equipment issues, environmental factors, nerves? Get a shooting coach or go to a school. Do the majority of your practicing the way you hunt. Add some pressure to your...

    When to quit?

    My opinion is worth what you paid for it. After about 37 years of hunting and killing 9 does and 1 buck I would pick up gardening and gathering.

    2024 New Mexico Draw Results

    I had that tag a few years ago. I probably saw about 50 does a day and 2-3 forkies a day. I guess I was not where all the big bucks hang out. I ended up shooting a forkie on the afternoon of the last day. It was my only tag that year and I needed to put something in the freezer.

    When did sights become so expensive?

    I don't understand it but for some reason people feel good when they spend a stupid amount of money on a name brand item. It makes them feel more confident and capable knowing they have the most expensive widget. Very similar to a security blanket.

    Bear attack or homicide in Montana

    The things some people consider likely risks in their lives is fascinating. Do you also put on a crash helmet when driving in a car? Do you tie into an anchor with a harness when you get on a step ladder to change a light bulb? Head injuries from car accidents and falls from ladders are way...

    Newb to Bow Hunting

    It depends on what you will be doing with them. Hunting, target, 3D. To get started look at amazon arrows. I am convinced the cheap off brand arrows come out of the same factories in China as the stupid expensive arrows. Iots of people feel better when using expensive items over cheaper...

    Podcasts, why do you listen

    I don't understand how anyone could not listen at this point. How else do you learn about the world around you and get different points of view. Whatever you are curious about there is a podcast, physics, astronomy, current events, history, politics, mysteries, hunting, knitting or whatever.

    New Mexico Public Land Black Bear

    I have tried it two years when I did not draw any other tags. First find the food then find sign then it is a waiting game. So far I have not been successful. Based on my limited experience bears are super hard to find in NM when looking for them.
