Make sure you have a good grip when decocking. It wants to run away from ya. I know a couple guys that blasted their scope with the crank and had to resite in. One of my students actually broke his scope.

As far as shot placement, yes, you are absolutely right. I have always shot mechanicals because they fly better for me. I look for the the mechanical that will fly the best out of my bow, a big cut is a bonus. I looked at the Ravin heads as well, but the reviews on those were not as good as the...

Late season, I try to cast a net far and wide. I will put out a bag of corn and a camera at every spot I can hunt that hasn’t been molested during gun season. I keep bouncing around trying to find a shooter. If I find a shooter, I will keep a corn pile there and monitor the trail cams until he...

I got a steal of a deal on an R29. I use mechanicals as well. After reading all the reviews, I went with the Tru Glo Titanium X 4 blades. They are also only $29.00 for a three pack. I sited in with them and they were tough enough to take 20+ shots into a stiff block crossbow target. Not an...

Amongst other things, I believe the most defining characteristic of a slob hunter is someone who is not efficient with their weapon which creates a greater likelihood of wounded, suffering animals.

I agree about lumping hunters in a large category. Many slob crossbow hunters, many slob compound hunters. Many good crossbow/compound hunters as well.

I disagree with some of the assessment of crossbow hunters here. I’ve killed a lot of deer with a compound. I am still able to shoot one. However, I shot my buck this year with a dreaded Ravin. Killed him following a doe at 30 yards. I can honestly say there was no less of a sense of...

It was me. Hunted hard and finally got lucky. Congrats to those that have killed and keep at it to those still with a tag. It can happen anytime. Even two days after gun season.

Layla got it done tonight. She made a great shot and we got to watch him pile up in the field in front of us. We watched him feed and walk across a 150 yard field to us. Once he got close to shooting range she got the shakes pretty bad. It was the first time that has happened to her and it was...

I am wanting to upgrade my daughter's xbow scope. This looks perfect! I will take it if still available. Thanks!

Mature buck activity on my cams is nightime only, not wasting my time until something shows in daylight. I’ve leared that the hard way. Really hope for some single digits this month!

I’ve heard the Rogers brand waders are good quality for a lot less. Next pair I get will likely be their bretheables.

At this point in the year, after gun season, I’ve only seen mature bucks in daylight, I guess I should say last few minutes of daylight, come to corn in cold temps. I know others can kill them on natural movement or food plots, but I’m not that good and I don’t have food plots. I go fishing at...

If your not above it.... Blind, big corn pile, right wind, single digits.

Definitely a purchase I am glad I made. Both my daughters shot their deer using it. Simplified things for the kids.

I think your to late for a buck decoy at this point. I have had the best results from Halloween up through the first week of November.

Worst rut I have ever experienced. I have logged a lot of hours since Halloween. I think I spent the vast majority of my time in the field during lock down. I always get sucked into thinking right around the 10th will be prime time to be out. Recent years have shown that is when lock down is...

Thank you all! She is still riding the high. I am too.
