  4. Re: Thermocell mosquito repellent I used my neighbors this year and just went and bought one myself and my step father one as well. Wally World has got them on sell. The therma scents attachments are on sale for $5.00 now and therma cells for $17.00.
  5. Re: heat carbon Just heat a little at a time, use a set of pliers to keep trying to rotate the field tip every so often. If you heat up to fsat it'll ruin the arrow just like heat it directly.
  6. Re: Bohning Blazer Dang Clay, now that's another detail I'm going to have to look for. LOL I haven't had a problem with them being accurate, ut it doesn't hurt to add more attention to your gear. Awesome buck and great picture!
  7. Re: gettin groundhogs Squirrel are legal, but we can't shake the tree to get them out of the nest. Hmmm-a sawed off shotgun, water in the holes, not very grammar inclined-is this a bad redneck joke? LOL
  8. Re: * * * 2007 * * * What are planning... to hunt? I'm going to try and make a hunt S.D. for antelope, my fingers are crossed! My hunt in Ohio in November. My hunts in NC here in the piedmont area. I can't wait until next season, this one isn't even over yet! LOL
  9. Re: The bow thats the perfect fit Having the correct draw length is key to great shooting. If your draw length is to long or short it create bad shooting form and habits. If you don't ever buy a bow from a Pro Shop, at lesat stop in and have your draw legnth checked so you'll know what you are getting into before you start any tradeing.

  11. Re: Wanted I gave my brother the two #4's I had and now I[ve only got my Have-A-heart trap i use around here for racoons whent hey get out of hand. Sorry.
  12. Re: Why different colored vanes? I with you Dg, the Easton uni-nocks have that ridge also. I just hold the flats of the nocks with my thumb and index finger, then slide my thumb out the shaft, if it hits a fletching. I now can tell which way to attach my arrow to the string. I'm in no hurry in the dark so it doesn't matter if it takes a little extra time and if it's during daylight. I've been shooting all white vanes for so long it's second nature to load one on the string even in the heat of the moment. Good huning guys!
  13. Re: What is your bowhunting blind? The Brickhouse TSC, it great for taking my son squirrel hunting they don't have a clue what is shooting at them! LOL If they can't see the danger they don't run.
  14. Re: Bohning Blazer Scotch brite or 150 grit emory clothe is great to use for prepping the shaft for fletching. I just use alcohol on a paper towel and clean the sanded area. If I'm using Marco vanes, I do wipe the base of the fletching off as well with alcohol. I'm just finishing up a new dozen GT's that my wife got me early for Christmas with the Blazers. Also, on the insert end of the shaft, I take a 22 cal. bristled cleaning brush, and scuff up the inside of the shaft just a bit. So the glue will have something better to adhere to when dried. Prior to placing the insert intot he shaft I use alcohol and a Q-tip to clean all the graphite dust from being cut and scuffed. That powder is just like a anti-seize for lue or epoxy. Alcohol is my preferred cleaner, acetone is just to strong is my opinion. I know acetone works great for taking wraps or dipped arrows off.
  15. Re: MONSTER Oklahoma Deer!!! [ QUOTE ] WOW I wouldnt be holding a long neck if I had shot it! [/ QUOTE ] It's Corona to boot! It still doesn't take away from how awesome that deer is.
  16. Re: OMG! Wow..... That's great Ruth, it sounds like the bow is holding it's tune and the shooter as well. That's what we want in our equipment and our muscle's. Good Luck to you!

  22. Re: This willl help you out Welcome to the forums, and it looks like everything is covered onthis subject. COLES-you hi the fermoral artery, it's not a high percentage shot but very fatal if your lucky tohit it on a bad shot. I've done it once on a fast walking deer and swore I'd never shoot at a moving deer again. I just got lucky and hit that artery.
