    Bow brands of years past...

    My first bow was a Renegade Tominator. Bought it used about 15 years ago. Used to get made fun of at deer camp because of how old and worn out it looked. But it would kill deer…. It met its end last season when it blew up in my hands. Thankfully no one was injured.

    Whitetail Rifle

    I’ll echo the comments about the Ruger American (or predator). If you’re looking for a budget friendly option that’s good for kids or weekend warriors, this is one to at least look at. I got one on .308, and it shoots very well. Like others have suggested, get a readily available caliber.

    Let's talk Broadheads....

    Two broadheads that you may want to look at: Slicktrick 125gr & Magnus Stinger, 2 blades with bleeders. Both seem to shoot as well as field points. Additionally, I love how easy the are to resharpen after use. I have many that I’ve killed multiple animals with. Also, they’re not super...

    .308 and Elk hunting..

    That’s good to hear. I figured it was probably safer to start using copper and avoid possible lead contamination in my game meat. Who knows how dangerous it actually is…but for just a little more money, it’s worth it to me.

    2022 hunting season

    Nice! I may have to use mine a few times this season for big game. It’s nice on the recoil….

    .308 and Elk hunting..

    I purchased several boxes of these federal copper 150gr for .308, but haven't had an opportunity to test on an animal yet. They grouped very well at 100 yards. I'm planning on hunting cow elk next fall, do you think the 150 gr is sufficient?

    2022 hunting season

    I just recently bought a CZ 527 to hunt primarily varmits and pigs. Have you shot many deer with your .223? Good success and short bloodtrails?

    Backpack alternative

    I'll give another vote for a fanny pack. I have a large one that I got cheaply ten years ago, and it easily holds the necessities for bow or gun hunting whitetails. I also have a Hill People Recon Kit Bag that is very solid. If I'm still hunting, I use the Recon chest rig, and if I'm tree stand...
