Just thought I’d weigh in. I’m a bow hunter but do use a rifle every now and then. My kids are getting old enough to hunt so I purchased a 6.5 CM last spring. My daughter is 12 and just put her elk tag on an animal at 125 yds. From a bow hunter standpoint the 6.5 is plenty if you are smart...

For elk, Knowing when to be aggressive and when to be patient either calling or stalking. Don’t watch the videos as the only ones published are the few successful attempts at being aggressive. Ask yourself how much film do they have where it was unsuccessful. Over the years I’ve taken more...

Anyone have experience with the Muzzy Trocar broadheads? I like the MX4s but like the steel ferrule for durability of the trocar.

Will be working in Challis this fall and thinking about giving up my go to areas to try something new. Any experience or advice on elk in 37 during September?

Looking into new spotting scope. Have a close friend with Leupold Goldring 12x40x60 and have always been dissapointed at the upper power levels. It blurs to the point that it is almost unsuable and has even been sent in for warranty work. I'm definitely interested in the Vortex. How much of...

Have had my new bow for about a month and finally shot through a conograph and thought I'd share results. 65lb with 29.5" draw 420 gr arrow 300 fps 83 pounds KE Not bad.

Can someone give me some advice on archery for antelope. I'd like to find an area that doesn't have tons of pressure. I'm thinking the top of the Lemhi or Pasimaroi for a 4-5 day spot/stalk hunt.

My daughter is almost 6. Her younger brother and her go with me often to shoot. I definitely think its time to pick up a starter bow for her and am very excited. What would you guys recommend? What poundage and draw lenght should I be looking at? I don't want something that costs and bunch...

If you are interested, I have a new in the box AXT Carbon Carnivore 5 pin sight. Its not on my bow because I have a removable sight I like better for backpack hunts. Its nice and light weight and the pins bring in lots of light.

Finally will be picking up my Bowtech Experience next week. Any suggestions on quivers? I have a NIB AXT Carbon Vapor but am not sure how well I like it for the price.

I've got NIB Archer Xtreme Carbon Carnivore Sight and Carbon Vapor Quiver. I don't need and would like to sell so I can build up my new bow fund. I'm asking $245 for the sight and $190 for the quiver. I'll pay shipping. Send me a PM if interested.

I'm getting a new bow (the bowtech experience!)and would like to hear some rest recommendations. I currently shoot a fixed rest and have loved it but figure its time to transition to a drop away. I don't feel I need a top line rest so any recommendations? Thanks,

Looking for a new bow and have been a fan of bowtech the last 10 years. I'm not a speed junky, want a smooth draw, and something well balance so I don't need a long stabilizer. I'm looking at the Experience or the Faktor and unfortunately since I'm left handed cannot go to archery shop with...

Anyone have any advise on how to be successful for a N. Idaho whitetail with a bow the week of Thanksgiving? Should I plan on a treestand and if so where or would ground blinds work? Rattling/grunting? Ridges or valleys? Will be hunting Units 8, 8A, 10, or 10A. Thanks!
