Things I Learned on my first elk hunt

[Deplorable77]

What are you using for a bow sling?

 

[6 x 6 bull]

Experience makes success

As a vet elk hunter what amount of blackhorn 209 you suggest for the no excuses? I shoot currently 130 grains by volume out of my accura v2 Lr.

I'm certainly no "veteran" with a ML, but I would be looking at 90-100gr by volume of BH209.....especially in the CVA's with the No Excuses (CVA recommends nothing heavier than 400gr lead conicals).

Thanks for the input! Ordered my sizing packet today

No bow sling here. I carry my bow in hand. If I'm packing in before my hunt, I will strap it to my pack.
