    How long does it take to get a Pope & Young certificate in the mail?

    It's not a giant by any means, but it was my 1st bull on my 1st attempt. Think he said it grossed 270 and net was 266 and change. I should have got a copy of the form before he sent it in.

    How long does it take to get a Pope & Young certificate in the mail?

    It was scored by a certified P&Y scorer and it was well over the minimum, so I'm assuming that's not the case. But stranger things have happened.

    How long does it take to get a Pope & Young certificate in the mail?

    I submitted my first entry for Pope and Young on an elk I killed in September, and I was wondering how long it typically takes to get the certificate? They cashed my check at the end of November and they told me 3-4weeks but I still haven't received anything. I hate to bother them again if it is...

    1st time draw and 1st time success on archery elk in NM.

    Well my 1st time ever applying for a tag ended in my 1st time success. I was able to get it done on the very last afternoon of my 7 day hunt. Me and my guide worked our butts off for 7 straight days running all over the mountains chasing bulls with several close encounters but never able to...

    Long Shot Tag NM 2C Mule Deer

    I have never hunted the unit, but I also drew 2C this year. I put in through an outfitter and from what they have told me, be prepared to shoot up to 80yds because of difficult stalks and not much cover. I will be there Jan 1st-7th, so hopefully I can punch my tag.

    Slick Trick ViperTrick vs Slick Trick Standard vs Exodus-- my observations

    First off, I am by no means a "Pro" archer, but I just thought I would make a post on some of my broadhead testing for my upcoming elk hunt in hopes that it may help others looking at the same setups. I have tested the ST ViperTrick, the ST standard, and the Exodus full blade all in the 125gr...

    Anyone tried a Primos bow sling on the Mathews VXR 31.5?

    Thanks, I may have to go with a sling that attaches to the bow and then use a Kuiu string cover or something

    Anyone tried a Primos bow sling on the Mathews VXR 31.5?

    I purchased a Primos bow sling for my Mathews VXR 31.5 and it is extremely tight and hard to get on. Just wondering if anyone else has tried this combo with different results? The solution may be as simple of as just stretching this new one out a little bit but just checking opinions before i...

    Anyone have experience with The Block 6x6 target?

    I recently bought a Block 6x6 target and have been shooting field points over the last 5 or 6 weeks averaging roughly 130 shots a week. It has 4 field point sides and 2 broadhead sides. My issue is when I shot broadheads it started passing through after about 10 shots at 50yds. Not complete pass...

    New Mexico Elk Draw Thread

    Thanks for the advice. I'm using an outfitter so hopefully that will help some. As far as stalking, is there much cover up there or is it open terrain? I'm just hoping to get within 80yds or less.

    Mathews arrow web vs Tight Spot quiver?

    Thanks alot for all input. Looks like I'll be looking for a tight spot. I did find a place that was offering 15% off on them, now I just got to remember where that was. Lol

    Mathews arrow web vs Tight Spot quiver?

    I didn't think about the diameter adjustment, that is a plus for sure as i'm shooting the 5mm FMJ. Thanks for the info.

    Mathews arrow web vs Tight Spot quiver?

    I just picked up my new Mathews VXR 31.5 and have narrowed my quiver search down to either the Mathews arrow web 6 arrow or the Tight Spot 5 arrow quiver. Any suggestions or experiences on these would be great. If it helps the hunting I plan on doing will be Elk hunting in Sept and mule deer...

    I only shoot fixed blades but I'm planning on shooting Easton FMJ and getting my arrow weight up around 500
