Don't think I've ever had the first half of September in central CO be so quiet in the areas I hunt. I've hunted a total of 10 days and have heard 1 distant bugle. I've seen elk most everyday but no talking at all, not even the big groups of cows I've seen. How's the rest of the state doing?

Hey guys! Got drawn for an archery elk tag in 49 and wanted to see what I could expect from this hunt. Also wanted to see if anyone has had this hunt in the past and is willing to pass along any pointers/recommendations. I've been in this unit a few times but never for elk and am planning on...

Hey fellas, I am just trying to find some general info on these units for an OTC mulie hunt in Jan. To tell you the truth I've never hunted AZ and just picked these two units because they look to have a good amount public land, access and they are a little closer for me as I will be coming from...

I was just seeing if anyone can give me some opinions on these units? I'm not looking for honey holes, just looking for some general opinions on these units. Public land access, hunting pressure, amount of elk, is there alot of roads throughout or can I get away with some boot leather? I've...

I recently switched to these this year, they fly great and I've already killed a nice buck in CO this year (Pics in CO Forum - Big 3 Down) so their performance seems fine. I do have a question, does/has anyone used these with Gold Tip arrows? I use the XT Hunters and didn't notice (or pay...

We've watched this buck for the past two years and last year nicknamed him "Big 3". Last year I didn't have a tag but told my buddy I'd shoot him if I ever got my chance, who cares what he scores. Well Tuesday evening I got my chance. He and 6 other bucks came out at about 5:00 pm and fed right...

I shot this bull Thursday night with my father-in-law and brother-in-law right by my side. He fed out in front of me 45 yds and I was able to tuck it right behind his shoulder and get a complete pass thru double lung shot. He spun and ran downhill only to tip over 50 yds from where I shot. As...

Just wanted to see how everyone else is doing. I have been hunting the central part of the state and haven't had much luck. It's been pretty hot and dry, creeping in the timber is very difficult. On opening day I had 3 different bulls and a handful of cows responding to some subtle cow calls...

Just wanted to see if you any of you guys have a certain taxidermist that you like using in any of these areas. The guy I was using moved to Texas last year and am in need of finding a new one. I have a Mule Deer I'd like to get mounted. Thanks for the help in advance.

Here is a buck I took on the evening of Oct. 19. I passed many decent 4x4 and 5x5 before I decided to take this one at 332 yds with my .300 WSM. I haven't put a tape on him yet, just curious to what you guys think he scores. With his deep forks, I couldn't pass him up.

I've been hitting many areas and have been on elk almost everyday, just can't close the distance in that thick nasty stuff. I have hunted about 7 days now and have not heard one bugle. Yesterday morning I decided to get out real early (4:00 am) get to my area and just sit and listen, well I...

I bought a dozen Gold Tip XT Hunters 7595 arrows, put my new G5 strikers on, but noticed when I spin tested them that 6 of the arrows seemed to have a noticeable wobble to them, the other six weren't bad. I'm assuming my inserts are crooked (not installed by me) and was wondering if I could use...

I am having a stupid moment. Are the 3 brass o-rings that come with them extras or do they need to go on the back of the broadhead. If you put them on then you should have a brass, silver and then another brass for a total of 3. Thanks for the help.

Recently started the fine tuning process before I put broadheads and had a quick question. I shoot a Ross Cardiac 31 7 1/4" BH 70 lbs at 30" Draw. Goldtip Arrows 7595 w/ 100 grain FP. From about 6 feet to 8 yards I'm shooting bullets, best holes I've ever shot through paper. When I step back to...

I recently shot one this weekend and was very impressed of how smooth the draw was, it was quiet, and was spitting arrows pretty fast. I asked them to set it up at a 30" draw to fit me, shot a couple of times and then was curious to see how many lbs I was shooting, it felt like 63-65, but they...

Well it's about time to put in vacation time for the upcoming Archery Elk season. I'm having a litle trouble trying to decide which week I should put in for. I'm thinking either the week of Sept 7-11 or Sept 14-18. I'm just curious to see what everybody else is going to do. I know the week of...

Tonight when I was shooting a little bit I noticed my groups went from 1 1/2" to about 2 1/2" at 25 yds, so I started fiddling a little bit. I did the ol lip stick test to see if I was getting any fletchig contact and noticed a small faint streak at the top of my left prong ( I shoot a Limbsaver...

I was just curious to see what everyone thought was a "Proper/Comfortable" Grouping Diameter at 20,30,40,50 and 60 yards.

I recently purchased a Reflex Ridgeline. I'm currently shooting it at 70lbs with a 30.5" draw. Using Gold Tip XT 75/95 with a ripcord fall away. I am grouping very well up to 60-70 yards with field tips (100 grain), so my question is which broadheads should I go with? I've heard that fixed...

Hi, I am new to the site, and need some advice on buying my first bow. I've hunted elk, deer and antelope since I was 12 here in Colorado (25 now), been pretty successful, but now have this urge to bowhunt instead using my rifle. I'm looking at a PSE Bow Madness XL and was curious if anyone else...
