No input on that particular arrow. I’ve only shot two deer with a bow and they were both complete pass throughs. I’ve shot 8 elk with a bow and haven’t had a pass through yet. I’m shooting an arrow broadhead combo around 500 grains from a 70lb bow that is shooting around 270fps. I don’t mind my...
That’s odd. Go outdoors Idaho! Is where I get my tags. Maybe they are headquartered in Florida. You didn’t put in for one of those Florida elk tags did you?
I’m certain that there are a lot more grizzly bears out there than the fish and game would like to admit to. I don’t know why they would lie about that but they seem to in my opinion. That or I just happen to encounter the very few bears they say we have frequently.
On a positive note it seems...
Good luck in the draw. I don’t know about the rest of the state but up here in the panhandle we are having an incredibly mild winter. Hopefully it stays that way and winter kill doesn’t occur.
I guess one other complaint I have is that I hunted the whole time hoping for snow and we never got any. Now I am headed to stare at my in-laws for thanksgiving and it snowed overnight. Oh well.
I’m probably done for the season. There is a chance I will get out next Monday which is our last day. I only hunted a handful of days. I filled two tags and didn’t fill the last one but had some of the best days I’ve ever had hunting whitetails.
I live in a place where you don’t see piles of...
Congratulations. That looks like a nice place to hunt. I wish we had hardwood forests here. Sitting in a treestand on a nice fall day bowhunting whitetails over acorns sounds like a good way to spend a day.
I am heading out to hunt this afternoon but I wanted to stop by that mock scrape I made and freshen it up in case my parents wanted to try hunting there. This guy was in the scrape when I got there. I plan on holding out for a nice one with my last tag and if this guy was in the area where my...
If anyone is interested in trying a deer scent this is the one I used for the last buck I got. I’ve never had any luck with artificial scents and didn’t think they really worked. I bought this one on Amazon because it was relatively cheap compared to others.
I had planned on using it as a...
I’ve got one more tag for deer. It’s a draw tag for an antlered whitetail in a CWD quarantine area. It’s the same area I have hunted all my life but they found CWD there a year or two ago so now it has some special rules. I’m hoping to get out for that tag and am planning on holding out for a...
I’ve shot 8 bulls and two whitetails. Clean pass through on both deer. I haven’t had a pass through on an elk yet. Some of those arrows were in the off shoulder but maybe 5-6 of them were broadside shots that just didn’t go through. I’m shooting an arrow around 420 grains out of a bow shooting...
I filled one of my three deer tags. I probably would have passed on this guy two weeks ago when I thought I would have lots of time to hunt in November. But my freezer is pretty empty and I spent 10 days laying on my couch with the new strain of Covid so I’m behind on projects and will probably...
You might want to hunt where the fire was. I was hunting an area near a spot where a large fire had been. I glassed across the canyon to the burned hillside looking at black ground and trees and watching an elk herd wander around. I went there the next day and there was elk sign all over and...
Dannyboy21 Nice bull.
What’s everyone else have for hunts coming up? I missed all of September archery for the first time in 21 years. I have an any weapon season that runs for 5 days at the end of this month but I don’t think I’ll have time to hunt. Then I have late archery and late...
I’ve also never been there but hopefully you have a good time and update us about how your hunt goes. I’m missing elk season this year and need the updates.
There is a giant rabbit hole you can go down with LiDAR. I first saw it on a tv show where they were mapping jungles in South America and Central America and finding long lost temples and civilizations that have been swallowed up by the jungles for centuries. Pretty cool stuff.
