    New bow?

    What pushed you over the hump to buy a new bow? I'm on a 8 year old bowtech that I just upgraded the sight on. Only required regular maintenance and been through a few strings now. I haven't shot anything else but this bow since, partially due to the fact that I don't want to know how much...

    Badlands Venture experiences

    I don't have this specific jacket, but I have purchased a bunch of different clothing from Badlands over the last several years. Overall, I've been very impressed with the fit, durability, comfort, and patterns, both hunting specific and casual clothing. I've had a couple things that didn't fit...

    AZ Kaibab early hunt worth it?

    I think you'd have to ask what type of experience do you want? The early hunt will give you opportunity at a lot of smaller bucks, and you'll see a ton of deer. There are some really good bucks walking around in the early season, but they are much tougher to find and it's unlikely to scout for...

    Give up on AZ?

    Being an AZ resident, I think sticking with the coues deer plan is a good idea. It's tough to imagine it being worth it to ride it out for a NR mule deer tag that is worth your time. Lots of units have big mule deer, but few have the numbers that make an out of state guy worth sticking it out...

    Optics During Archery Elk

    I've been kicking this around for a while. Helping some friends on an AZ archery elk hunt the last few weekends has given me a bit more idea what I might need. I spent several days glassing on top of a mountain scanning for elk. 10x42 Vortex Viper HD allowed me to see up to 2000yds, offered a...

    New to archery - what arrows for elk?

    I shoot the same 29" draw and 70lb. I tried several arrows before settling on the Easton 4mm FMJ 300 spine. I shot the exact arrow preparing for my hunt, but often practiced with a field tip of the same weight as my broadhead. I ended up trying a few broadheads and ended up with a fixed 3 blade...

    New to archery.. picking arrows and broad heads!

    What is the wind like where you hunt? I live/hunt in an area with frequent high winds. One thing I've found with different diameter arrows, is that the smaller arrow diameter is much less sensitive to cross wind. For example, my 5mm shaft arrows would move 4-5" with a strong cross wind at 50...

    Do you take a backup rifle on hunts?

    I do. I was on a hunt with my brother last year where his scope screws worked their way loose after several days of hiking. It effectively lost him the chance at being successful during the rest of his hunt, as he missed the deer he had been hunting for several days. There was not enough time to...
