    Camo debate

    Sageman, that was before product endorsement made a HUGE splash in the hunting industry. In the old days, you got paid for a magazine article, or a VHS tape of the hunt. If you shot your trophy with a PSE bow, PSE jumped in and sponsored your video. These days old Chuck would have his door...

    Bad folks chasing deer.

    Elkantlers, I was looking through the scope trying to see some identification numbers, or something that would identify them. I cant film through the scope, and look through it at the same time. I wish I could. In hindsight, I wish I had. I would definitely have posted the video of these...
