    Mule Deer Proposal

    I'm originally from Nevada which typically has a deer herd state wide of around 110,000 deer, the reason being the lack of quality habitat. I remember back in the mid 80's we had like 4 or 5 years in a row that were really wet which of course resulted in more suitable habitat. The deer herd...

    Mule Deer Proposal

    imo, splitting seasons in half is going to result in the average joe shooting the first legal deer he or she sees. But then maybe thats what they want, forked horn annihilation... pretty much the way it is now on the unit I live on. Quite frankly, I don't understand all the gimmick proposals...

    Black eagle arrows

    I've tried the rampages and they worked fine, the setup ended up heavier than I like so I went to carnivores. Both arrows shoot great, very consistent. The last elk I shot didn't know the difference, blew right thru it.

    Elk Archery Equipment Question

    Yes, its a fast bow. Bowtech BTX-31 that ibo's at 350fps and according to my chronograph it does ibo at 350fps. I've been shooting 60lbs for a long time but when I gradually dropped down from 80 to 70 then 60, because of the trajectory I decided I would never buy a bow that didn't ibo at 340fps...

    Elk Archery Equipment Question

    I've shot multiple elk with 52lb longbows. Arrows roughly 9.5 grs per pound. 2 blade heads. All but one was a pass thru, the one hit low but I still got it. Compounds, 60lbs, 462gr arrow, 275fps, 4 or 3 blades, all but one was a pass thru.

    Any recurve bow hunters?

    I hunted with recurves and longbows for about 12 years till we moved to vegas and my back yard shrank to 10 yards. With the lack of practice, you have to shoot these often to stay accurate, my shooting suffered and I missed a few elk. The longest shot was 32 yards on an elk which blew right...

    Lasik eye surgery for hunting

    I had prk done about 10 yrs ago. With prk they take off the skin over the eye, shape the cornea and let the skin grow back. Lasik they cut the skin but leave a small section attached, flop if over, shape the cornea then flop it back over. I did left eye for close and right for distance. Love...

    Logan to cedar city?

    More than likely, from cedar city you are going to want to go north to 20 over to 89, then down to panguitch and up towards the lake. 14 out of cedar quite often turns into one lane with 10ft snow banks on each side. 143 closes at brianhead.

    THE CARONA COME-BACK???

    yep, I know a guy in his early 70's that tested positive. A couple months later face to face I asked him what was it like? He rolled his eyes and said, "its all a crock, had a mild cold for a couple days, thats it. I think its being blown way outta proportion so they can socialize the country."...

    Best Outer Layer/water proof Archery Hunt.

    There isn't any quiet rainwear but when its raining, it really doesn't matter any way. Just cause you hear it doesn't mean the animals do. I use Kuiu's packable stuff but I live in Utah so storms blow over fairly quick. I also have a Chugach set that works very well if you get a storm locked in...

    Frame packs

    I agree with BeanMan, Seek Outside makes a great pack. I love mine. I have 5 bad disks and spinal arthritis so it is extremely important that all the weight rides on my hips and not on my back, this pack does that for me. It has a very different belt that just fits me well, no slipping or hot...

    I feel ya, same thing happened to me last year with a D340. Picked up a used Xpedition off archerytalk, tuned it in camp, and sealed the deal a few days later. Took 6 months to get the parts from Bowtech to fix that bow. My buddies cousin had a Hoyt blow up in camp last year as well. Down...

    DWR Survey for Deer/Elk.

    Killing more elk won't do a thing to help the deer herd. Elk are grazers, deer are browsers, they primarily eat two different foods. What would help is to remove all the encroaching water sucking pinyon and reseed with sage and other browse plants. and while we're at it, start logging again...

    Tuning Question

    I'm not sure what the spine is on the arrows you are using but you really need a 330 spine cut to 28.5". With broadheads hitting low you could also try raising the rest.
