Re: Best bow blind for the money? I vote Double Bull as well. I hunted out of one for the first time in Wyoming in 2002 and I bought one in 2004 for my trip to Montana. I have never used it for turkey but my neighbors love to borrow it and have killed birds as close as 4 yds to it with a bow.

Re: Best Mechanical Broadhead I shot spitfire 125gr for years and they worked great. However I tried Rocket steelhead 100gr a couple of years ago and WOW. Went through bone like a muzzy.

Re: I Feel Blessed! Nice Bucks. Congrats!!!!

Re: Need opinions on two way radios! You might want to check your game laws before using them during hunting. Some places it is unlawful.

Re: How far will you shoot at a deer? I don't shoot much past 30 yards here at home. However a 50 yard shot at a big bull elk in open country isn't that much of a risk as far as I'm concerned. I practice a lot at 70 yards. I would never shoot 70 yards but when you pratice at that distance 30 yards is like shooting 10 yards. At least it is for me.

Re: Deer / Car Collisions I don't know that there is a solution to this problem. I know that deer/car accidents I handle are usually in the same spots year after year. I think the real problem is that we (humans) keep encroaching into their habitat.

Re: ILLINOIS gun hunters That is a good idea if you live/have a permit in one of the counties that has the late firearms season

Re: whats a good bow between $300-$500 Fred Bear

Re: HOW OLD WERE YOU... I was 21 before I got my first deer with a bow. I hunted 6 long years before finally taking that big doe. I still have a picture of her up on the wall......

Re: Here\'s a good question It is an all by myself affair!

Re: How many deer have you harvested with your bow? I have taken 25 whitetails, 1 elk, 1 antelope, 1 black bear, and 1 mule deer. 6 of the whitetails are pope and young and so is the elk

Re: What is the best Climber? OL' MAN I have two of them and love them....They are lite easy to set up and use and very quite

Re: How many of you have to work Monday? I am with you my friend. I have worked the 4th every year for the last 12 years.

Re: tree stands? I used to love portable stands but after using climbers for the past 5 years I am hooked. Not only can I take my stand out of the woods everyday because there are people with sticky fingers where I hunt but it also allows me to keep a good spot a secret.

Re: What do you pull? 68 # with 65% let off

Re: American Archer I watch it almost every time it is on. On a side note where did you go to boot camp and what was your MOS. I was in the Corps from 87-91.

Re: How many Deer have you shot ?? I have been bowhunting since I was 17 and I'm now 37.....Wow I just realized it has been 20 years. I have shot around 25 whitetails, 1 elk, 1 mule deer, 1 antelope, 1 black bear all with a bow. I have only taken 3 whitetail with a gun before I started bowhunting. 6 of my whitetails were large enough to be in pope and young, and the elk made pope and young
