    Which vehicle?

    Don't minimize American trucks. With proper maintenance and care I suspect any new or later year truck will serve you well. I bought my Dodge 1500 new in 2005. It has been perfect with only normal maintenance done. 170k miles and not slowing down. Will be buying Dodge again with only change...

    Limb driven rest set up

    For those in the know..... top limb or bottom limb? Does it matter? If so why? I do not understand why one is better over the other. If it matters I'm shooting Elite Answer with Versa rest attached to top limb. Whole rig is new and was told set up in top limb configuration because that...

    What gear are you saving or gaining weight this year?

    I'm going from BA fly creek UL3 to the Sawtooth. Guessing that will add somewhere around a pound. However the benefits go through the roof. Size, space, being able to stand up to dress and most appealing feature not rubbing elbows with hunting partner. Matt

    Colorado Deer Draw is up

    Curtis - that is what I thought as well with the 500's coding. My buddy drew and he is still showing his 490 res deer app code and nothing else. He went from 7pp to zero. Maybe the 500 codes show up later? Matt

    Neuroma problem need help!!

    After injections solved my neuroma in January I finally got the courage up to hit the trail again with my boots. To this point running 8 miles caused no pain, hiking in sneakers caused no pain and carrying a 65lb pack while on the trail with sneakers caused no pain. I thought I was in the...

    Release style

    Buying a new release soon. Looking at Carter or Scott. I've only used the double caliper style releases in the past and I'm looking at the string hook style now. What are the advantages, if any, to the string hook type release? Only thing I would like to keep constant is the nylon strap...
