    I think they have a cd you can plug in and drive down the roads and it gives you the tour that way. We had to do a field trip there back in high school and it was kind of lame.

    New Toys!!!

    awesome, I wish I knew how to do all that stuff myself sometimes. I'm getting much better though, just need the equipment
  3. yeah I do not like that show at all. I will never buy any suffix line b/c of how much he tries to push it
  4. Thompson center, personally though I'm way more accurate with my bow then I am with the flint. Just can't hold it still. One thing to know in the world of muzzleloading and it's called Thompson Center, cant go wrong
  5. congrats everyone, it was a great spring
  6. mechanicals will allow for you to get away with your bow not up to par on the tuning, fixed heads will not fly great out of bow that's not properly tuned. That being said up until this coming season I had always used spitfires b/c I was too lazy to mess with the bow to get it shooting fixed heads. Mech's wont penetrate as well with angled shots but usually leave a pretty good blood trail. I got the new bow shooting good and will be leaving the mechanicals behind and going with the slick tricks.
  7. must have been a tasty broadhead
  8. very nice strut, do you have any other birds mounted, i'd love to see more pics.
  9. congrats on the bird, sorry about your luck John. Timbering runined my deer season a couple years ago. Thing is it should get real thick in there in the next couple years and deer should use it. I know it really improved the area I hunt.
  10. seasons are definitely late in PA too. Of course it's that way for some reason. Alot more birds would be taken if they opened things up sooner.
  11. thunderheads are decent broadheads and will get the job done. Thing is I could never get them to shoot consistent out of my bow. I'm going to go with slick tricks or strikers this year. There are a ton of good heads out these days, some you will pay alot more for then others.

    Striper Tourney

    Nice, were you live lining alewife? A few yrs ago when I was with the PFBC I came up and got the heads to age the fish from your tourney. Would love to learn the secrets to catching a few
  13. they are not done, just sounds like theres been people messing around with things up on that state land. Maybe try close to home and see if you can't find a lonely one
  14. nice fan mount was that hard to do, can you explain details?
  15. It's def easier to scout when the woods are dead and wide open and easier to see. From here on out you will be able to see the main trails deer are using b/c of the heavy foilage a trail that is being used will be easily located b/c it will be stomped down. However you are going to be seeing deer in the summer patterns which may not be where they'll be come fall. Don't expect to find the "best" spot right away. Over a season of hunting the place smart and hard the deer will let you know where you'll need to be. It took me one full season to basically learn a new property I had access to and fine tuned my approach that second year. That being said though I still took deer.
  16. goodluck John, from what I hear the birds are getting fired up again this week. I was going to get out tomorrow but with the rain forcasted I didn't go up to camp.
  17. great idea on the "other cam" idea. See what he says when you tell him he should have taken the other cam that got his pic.
  18. well looks like you made the right call and found the right bird, congrats
  19. if janns netcraft doesn't have it then I don't know who will.
