    Raw Frozen Scents

    I tried the raw scents this year, I believe they pulled the buck I shot out of the brush and into a shooting lane, there was no other reason for him to make that mistake. 130 5/8, heavily hunted public land.

    Do I need more grains?

    Impact velocity. Because I've seen impacts from tsx bullets at 2950 and the wounds were pathetic.

    Do I need more grains?

    Experiences similar to this on whitetails are the reason I switched away from monos. Imo, they need impact velocity >3000 fps, which is not really feasible.

    Youth Compound Bow

    I picked the excalibur mag 340 for simplicity, durability, and the ability to shoot it a bunch with minimal maintenance, but i already dislike the bulk in the woods. might pick up a killer instinct swat x1 for strictly hunting.

    Youth Compound Bow

    Hoyt kobalt seems to be the best of the current kids bows. My boys are the same age, I had planned to get them a pair for Christmas, but opted for a crossbow instead. Bonus is that they can hunt with the crossbow now.

    Any flintlock hunters around here?

    it is possible to wear a frizzen out. it is also possible to reharden them. get the thing glowing red hot with a map torch or induction heater, then quench it in the hottest water you can get from your sink.

    Any flintlock hunters around here?

    i tried a cows knee, have seen others try melting wax around a full pan, don't love either option. most of my flintlock hunts involve driving deer and pretty quick shot opportunities. i work on my frizzen so it fits perfectly over the pan and keep the whole lock jambed aggressively up into my...

    Any flintlock hunters around here?

    I've killed 20+ deer with a flintlock. Regs and weather have changed, now I can use an inline and it's typically damp/ rainy, so it's been a few years since I killed with it. They're great fun when they work.

    Looking for a new bow sight

    I prefer spot hogg sights. They have a number of options with 2 vertical pins, tommie hogg or boonie are the ones i would look at.

    Feedback on Whitetail Shot

    It's very obvious from the pictures and how long it took to die that the deer was quartering to, likely quite a bit. That's also why there was no exit on the other side, the arrow was not on a path that took it through both sides the deer. It's tough to keep details straight, and even harder...

    Montana Rifle Co, Shoot2Hunt, and Rokslide Rifle

    A Tikka really isn't the right comparison. This is more of a crf competitor to the sako s20 push feed, but with better barrel lengths out of the box. Dunno if I will buy one since I keep killing stuff with my bow, but it is definitely a rifle to recommend.

    7mm Soul Searching

    6 creed is a gateway drug. The op can't wrap his mind around using a 7mm for elk yet, extremely unlikely that he drops to a 22 cal.

    Quiet bino harness for bow hunting

    Inside only, with adhesive backed felt. I think they make a fleece lined version now.
