  1. sorry for multiple posts. To beat the world record Hansonj buck. He'll have to gain alot in mass. The length of tines and number of typical tines "12" is better on the hanson buck. I believe the Hanson buck will stand as number 1!!!!--rossman
  2. Is buckshot legal in Alberta? It's not in NY!!!! Great way to ruin the cape!!!! lol--rossman
  3. All I know is you better be warry who your showing pics and posting pics too!!!! If this deer is indeed the new world record. He should not have said anything about it until after the drying period and had him scored. Also, Now that he has posted the pics anyone can copy the inage and use them. I know hunting is hunting, but when you kill a world record your life will change. You become famous and can recieve money for pictures, stories, etc.... For example, I can copy the image and then I own it if it is not copywrited, and sel it. I wouldn't of course but do you get my drift? Also, he runs a greater chance of theft and destruction from idiots who are jealous!!!!! Not a good idea to post that deer, should have been smarter!!!! Just my 2 cents!!!--rossman
  4. I am looking to buy a 220 swift varmit rifle. So, this post is a looking post. I prefer it be a Ruger Varmit model with a heavy target barrel. If you have or know anyone who has one to sell. I am interested.... Thanks, Rossman
  5. A hear ya. I could have flintched or something like that. So maybe it was me. This is the first time I tried th shoot 150 grains of powder out of my muzzleloader in 2 years. So, maybe I was thinking about the kick. Thanks, Rossman
  6. I have a .45 caliber thompson omega muzzlelaoder. I wanted to try out the new Power Belt "Platinum Tip" 223 grain bullett with 150 grains of triple 7 powder. I wanted to increase the grains in my bullet and charge to deliver more KE. I used to use a 200 grain shockwave with 100 grains of powder and had a 2 inch spread at 100 yards, but had a hard time killing deer with it, having no sign of blood or hair after the shot. I would track the deer in the snow for more than 150 yards with no sign but could not believe I was missing. I shot at 3 deer the last two years at less than 100 yards with no sign of hitting it. I kill deer at 400 yards with my weatherby but can't kill a deer within 100 yards with muzzleloader. Myt first shot with a clean barrell missed the entire paper. So, I shot another and it was a half inch high dead center. I fired three more shots and here is the pattern I got at 100 yards. Is it normal for the first "clean barrell" shot to be off so much? Is this an acceptable pattern for you guys at 100 yards? Its a 3" spread. I only accept a 1 inch spread with my rifle but a rifle is different of course. Is this good enough to ethically hunt deer with? Thanks--rossman
  7. My brother "Danbo" and I went on our annual trip to Kansas this year. In previous years we held out for 150" class bucks or better, but came home with nothing. This year we were very excited to pull the trigger and killed two very respectable bucks. My brothers was a 140 class 8 point that busted off his main beam after his G3 and his G3. But still a great buck. Mine was a good ten point that had a mule deer split off of his G2 and G3's. Due to all the points he would gross slightly under 140. We are very thankful for the bucks we killed and have a reason for our wives to let us go again next year. Here are some pics. Rossman's Buck.... Danbo's Buck.... Just thought I would share... Later--Rossman

  9. My entry for our team, 12 pointer. Killed a buck in Kansas, 12 total points with two mule deer splits of his G2 and G3. Here are the pics: Hope this will do!!! Later -- Rossman
  10. Rossman checking in!!!! After getting dirt kicked in our faces in Colorado this year. I feel sorry for the first doe that steps in my way this year!!! So I'm going for the first doe I see for meat then holding out for an 8-point or bigger. Let's get 'em!!!!! Later--rossman
  11. it will open!!! I bought a pack last week and they fly true and the physics behind the Rage is undeniable. It takes more kinetic energy to open a traditional mechanical broadhead due to the blades having to swing back to be open. The slip cam design looks awesome and I really believe they will work!!!! -Later--rossman
  12. I picked up a Ross Cardiac this summer and started shooting broadheads three weeks ago. I had a terrible time paper tuning my bow and my broadheads were all over the place. So I brought it down to my proshop to see if he could help me out. He couldn't paper tune it either. So we sprayed some powder on the whisker buskit rest to see if th earrows were hitting the rest. And they were! My arows were hitting the lower right part of the ring of the whisker buiscuit. So, my proshop guy talked me into shooting a ripcord dropaway. So I agreed and he put it on and we were able to paper tune it. But now, I am getting some arows that are off when I shoot. The fletchings are not hitting the lowere right side of the ripcord rest. Now I'm beyond the point of frustrated. Could the bow be the issue? So, have any of you had any issues with the Ross Cardiac? I love the bow and love the way it shoots but I can fifure out why my arows are being pushed down and to the right? And the kicker is, I'm going out to Colorado in two weeks so I'm getting nervous. My proshop guy told me that the bow was paper tuned when it left the shop, but when we tried to paper tune it when I brought it back, we couldn't even get a tear within the fletchings. So, I starting to think he's full of poo? PLease help!!!!!--rossman
  13. I'm shooting 100 grain sonics. My field tips are 100 grains too. The sonics shot perfect along with my field tips with my matthews but now their not even close. Frustrating. My proshop told me he paper tuned my bow but maybe I'll go back down and see if he can do it again. Thanks for the help...--rossman
  14. Well, I picked up a Ross Cardiac and started shooting broadheads. At 20 yards my broadheads are 4 inches lower than my field tips, and 40 yards their 12 inches lower than my field tips. How do I tune my bow so my broadheads pattern with my field tips? Should I move my rest up a little bit or knock point down? Any help would be very appreciative!!!!! --rossman
  15. What? Does no one like Mathews anymore? If you can't come up with $450 then make me an offer! Whop knows? I just may accept!!! Late--rossman
