    This is my third year hunting, but my first successful late season harvest. Took a doe at about 20 yards. Finally got my Barnett Hypetac 420 figured out (will make a different post to explain more) and she came wandering in. To be honest, my buddy asked if I hit her. Clean shot, but I didn’t...

    What should be done with him? Was this deer hit by a crossbow arrow, firearm, or other? It looks like it should be dead but is still walking. Would you shoot this guy to take him out if his misery?

    This morning this 6pt buck was found down near my sister's home on their extended lawn. My brother in law assumes it was hit by vehicle traffic in the highway which passes by their home. There seem to be no injury aside from broken antler.

    I remember growing up as a kid listening to my father talk about opening a sporting goods store every time we were out hunting or fishing. He always thought it would be a fun and rewarding venture to start. He wanted to call it Triple B Outdoors. Triple B meaning Bait, Bows and Beer :ROFLMAO...

    Currently in pain from having a wisdom tooth surgery, and thought this might be an interesting topic to hear ya'll's opinions on. What defines a shooter buck/doe for you ? For me it'd be anything better than a spike or forky unless he has a big body. I try to pass on yearlings but sometimes...

    I have two photos of the same salt lick site I created before and after. I was amazed at the amount of use after a few years. This was my first attempt at salt licks. I choose a 50lb mineral block for livestock from a local TSC store which had a low price. I still use the same salt lick blocks...

    Crossbow Hunting Success Have some good news! My son took his wife hunting last evening. They hunted from the new tower stand which had been left alone for a three weeks at least. We knew 6-7 doe had been coming to feed near that stand by using cell linked camera so sure enough she took her...

    Ever experience deer not using a feeder? I have this Fall and winter. I used rice bran for years witj good luck so decided to avoid molded waste I would build a special feeder for keeping bran dry. Since corn prices jumped up it seen like a good idea. I decided to place the feeder at a great...

    It’s getting close to the time of the year I don’t shoot my crossbows as much because deer season is drawing near. By nature, I tend to be very hard on myself where shooting is concerned. I practice when I am able, and feel I do ok, but I’m curious if my expectations are realistic. For me to be...

    Owned a few ground blinds and thanks to luck I have the best ground blind for the money. It's the Ameristep Care Taker Magnum. About three weeks ago while I was in WM I ran across two Magnums at 50% mark down. Damaged packaging was the reason for the mark down. Since then I have put both to use...

    I know this is a crossbow site, and my question is about a firearms season. But I've found the folks here to be very helpful so I thought you might have an insight for me. For most of PA, the first week of firearms season is buck-only, and the second week is buck and doe. Does anyone know what...

    Several nice bucks in my area but they have my number. So yesterday with the cold temperatures I couldn't past on this nice doe. The Ripper was true to the mark. The doe turned from broad side to extreme quartering away as I shouldered my bow. She was leaving so I took the shot.The blood on the...

    Isn't it about time to plant those deer greens for the winter? I have a four wheeler for the plowing job! Wonder how many acres? :unsure:
  18. Crossbow Arrows
    I am a new shooter. I zeroed my crossbow with a recommended brand of bolts and field points; shot wonderful at 20 to 40 yards and was pleased. The mechanical broadhead and same brand bolt was "supposed" to weigh the same but I weighed them and the difference is 30 grains (complete arrow and...

    Shot another big doe last night with the Barnett. Got it all on video with the Tactacam. She ran the same path my first one did except this one jumped the fence, luckily she died right on the other side of it. Hope you enjoy the video!

    How much of a knock will you let your bow / scope take before you assume it needs to be checked? Like if I hit a pothole in the car on the way to the woods? Or if I bump a tree with my stock? If I dropped it hauling it up into my stand, from more than about 6", I would for sure, but...
