    Traditional muzzleloader Question

    Robby, thats about the exact scenario that has played out in my mind. Im confident that I can get within 75 yards on a good buck. BUT, things happen. The wind swirls, a "Rok"slides out from under you. Things happen. So with that, Im going to give the conical a try. I want to give myself...

    Traditional muzzleloader Question

    T43, I see your point as well. I'm still on the fence on this subject. After my last post, I looked up a couple Muzzy forums and found a ton a folks who swear by the round ball out to 75-100 yards. Dang, I just can't make up my mind. I think i will buy a package of conicals and play around...

    Traditional muzzleloader Question

    Just got off the phone with Cecil. Looks like I might be giving his Ultimate 1 Spitzer a try. He said that the round ball has a humane effective range only to 37.5 yards! Anything past that increases that chance of wounding a deer. The 390 grain Ultimate 1 Spitzer will do the job out to 175...

    Traditional muzzleloader Question

    Robby, my groups at 100yds are about 4 inches. Thanks for all the info. You guys got me thinking about those conicals though. I think I might just have to give them a try. Whats your thoughts on the Powerbelts?

    Lots of bear, lots of elk. I have come across a lot of cat sign, but have yet to see one. Same goes for wolves as well, seen their sign, but never come across one yet.

    The downside of hunting alone

    Thats a bad deal. I need to re-register my SPOT asap. Hunting alone is a such a great soul refresher........but also a big risk as well. Its always in the back of my mind on what could happen. Be careful out there folks.

    Traditional muzzleloader Question

    Thanks guys. I've been out to the range now a few times and starting to get pretty good with the round ball. Very confident out to 100 yards. If I can find a shooter buck in the high country this fall and have him all to myself, that buck is in big trouble :)

    Leaking hydration bladder.

    I've wondered the same thing. I bought a brand new Camelbak last year and it leaked right away. My inside of my bag was all wet.....not good. Going with a MSR or a Platypus. Guess I better check out the Source as well.

    Accuracy with a recurve and longbow only

    Here is a 27 yard group I shot the other night. This rarely happens........Its usually not this good. I guess I was in the "Zone"

    Amateur Moves

    I think it was 2007 during a high country archery hunt. I located a huge, huge typical in a beautiful alpine basin. Being to aggressive, I decide to try and intercept the buck as he headed for the timber to his bed. Unfortunately, I arrived just a tad too late. He busted me and vanished for...
