      Laser Range Finder Question

      I've archery hunted the last three seasons with a Tenpoint Stealth XLT Crossbow. I love it. Now I'm looking to purchase a good laser range finder. My question is: do you think it's necessary to get a range finder with the angle compensation technology considering I'm using a crossbow? I do...

      ATTENTION TURKEY HUNTERS???

      Hi all...I found the attached notice posted last spring at the check-in stations at Sugar Ridge FWA in Pike County. I'm just wondering what everyone's thoughts are about this. I've heard that other state properties have a draw system but this is a first, and probably not last, at Sugar Ridge...

      Anyone Ever Do A European Skull Mount Hunting Trophy?

      OOPS!!! My previous post should say "I simply have the skull set atop a long bolt secured to the wood". Sorry about that.

      Anyone Ever Do A European Skull Mount Hunting Trophy?

      I harvested my best buck ever last year and decided to do a European mount myself. I researched on-line and found the following: How To – Prepare a European Skull Mount For the hunter on a modest income the European skull mount, done tastefully, can preserve your trophy and memories in a low...

      Gun for coyote hunting

      I really appreciate everyone’s input and ideas about a good combination for a rifle to use for coyote hunting. I have to agree with hysteria that about any weapon will take down a coyote. I’ve killed them with my bow during archery season. And I do already own several more than capable rifles...

      Gun for coyote hunting

      I regularly see coyotes while deer hunting in the southwestern part of the state and have shot a few over the years with my slug gun or muzzle loader but never have I set out to pursue them. I’m thinking that with the increased numbers of these critters in my hunting area, I’ve seen many this...

      Any Beagle owners/rabbit hunters?

      My husband and I have trained both beagles and pointers and go to great lengths to prevent gun shyness. We purchased a cap gun, hard to find one but it's possible and the caps are like little primers now and not the old fashioned paper rolls like when I was a kid. Our method is to stand in...

      Scent blocker?

      This archery season I've had three different deer, one a big mature doe, saunter within 4 yards of where I was sitting on the ground at the edge of a picked corn field. None of them spooked. My #1 consideration when deer hunting is playing the wind. I won't hunt a stand or ground blind if the...

      Shotgun question

      I have to agree with remauto1187. I've hunted with a Remington 1100 for over 30 years and it's still my go-to gun for deer firearms season. I have a Leupold 3-9x40mm shotgun scope secured with an AimTech saddle type mount which allows for easy removal for cleaning or changing barrels. When...

      Need to be connected while hunting

      Thanks to one and all for your responses to my query. I'll definitely be checking out the "two-way radios". Like M4Madness we too had pretty good cell service with Verizon at all of our hunting locations, spotty at times in some places, but doable. Now however it's almost nil in these areas...

      Need to be connected while hunting

      This is a bit “off-topic” but... My husband and I are avid hunters even into our “senior” years, he’s 73 and I’m 58. We rarely hunt the same areas so feel it is imperative to be able to communicate while out in the field should something bad happen or just to keep in touch during the hunt. We...

      Question about crossbow broadheads

      Thanks to one and all for your thoughts on broadheads for crossbows. I've been hunting with a compound for over 30 years but am quite new to the crossbow so still have some things to work out, broadheads being the major factor right now. I've not tried shooting a fixed blade broadhead yet but...

      Question about crossbow broadheads

      I hunted with my new TenPoint Stealth XLT crossbow last year and just love it. Being a “vintage” hunter I had developed some shoulder/back issues and the crossbow keeps me in the field enjoying my favorite activity. My question is this: what broadheads do you folks use in your crossbows? I’m...

      I saw the squirrel running, gotta lead, pulled the trigger....

      This might sound silly but it helped find a squirrel my husband knocked down last week and initially couldn't find. He hunts with a .22 magnum and always shoots for the head, which generally results in a dead squirrel before it hits the ground. However, at times they do spasm some after they...

      Squirrel recipes

      I’ve prepared squirrel numerous ways over the years and some of the recipes I’ve seen here I’ll just HAVE TO try but this is by far my favorite that I’ve come up with. Place desired number of squirrels, cut into pieces, into a crock-pot. Cover with ham broth. I buy the has flavoring in a jar...

      Squirrel newbie

      My husband and I have been devoted squirrel hunters for more than 32 years. It’s not only great fun but also tunes one up for deer season, practicing sneak hunting, shooting, etc. and yields some pretty tasty dishes for the dinner table. About a week prior to the season opener we go into the...

      My Wife's First Gun

      KUDOS to your wife for deciding to carry. I'm a woman and have been a concealed carry holder for over 25 years. I recently retired my Lady Smith in 357 mag for a Glock 23 Gen 4 (40 S&W) and LOVE IT! Wanted more rounds in the event they would be needed. I find the 23 a bit difficult to...
