  1. I've shot it with .45 and .410...recoil is not bad at all...in fact was a lot less than I was expecting.
  2. Anyone out there own one? How do you like it? Pros and cons?
  3. I am going Saturday to pick up my birthday present from my wife. Raging Bull 444 with a 6.5 in barrel in 44 mag. I'm looking for a holster for it. I would prefer a leather holster and just don't seem to be having any luck finding one. Anyone know were to get one?
  4. Obviously it is asking for trouble not to clear a weapon before handing it to someone...that is plain stupid in my book. It is also stupid in my book to keep your weapons and/or ammo locked up where they cannot be grabbed quickly if needed.
  5. I keep two loaded handguns with rounds in the chamber ready to fire in my room...a .40 on my side and a 9mm on my wifes. If someone breaks on their not going to be nice and stand there while I look for my magazine and chamber a round.
  6. I always aim one third of the way up from the underside of his body behind the shoulder...that way if he does duck I still get him. Also, I have never shot under a deer but have shot over a few so it makes me feel a little better to hold a tad low.
  7. I shot both today at my local shop because I too am looking for a new bow. I did not like to Reezen at all...draw cycle to me was not as good as the Hoyt and it did have more kick...my personal toss up right now is between a DXT and AM32.
  8. Anyone own one or shot one? What's your take on it?
  9. Good call on not taking the shot...a lot of people would have probably tried it. Way to go on making a good ethical call.
  10. They seem to be hitting the acorns pretty hard here.
  11. I always use the normal stuff...of course I always try to keep the wind in my favor as much as possible...sometimes it swirls and you get busted but I dont think there is a whole lot you can do about that when you got an animal with a nose that good in front of you.
  12. Flying great for me...this is my first year with them so I dont know how they do on the deer yet...hopefully will find out soon.

    how high

    I have a 16 or 17 foot ladder that I use a lot of the time. Most of my hunting is in lock on stands around the 18-20 foot area.
  14. Been seeing them all here really late in the evenings as well...nothing in the mornings. They have been coming out in the last few minutes of daylight.
  15. Congrats on your first buck!
  16. Nothing like the first one! Congrats
  17. Congrats! I am still working on putting down my first one of the year.
  18. Yes Gina is a great looking lady...that could totally kick the crap out of me lol
