    Whitetail Genetics in/near Vinton Ohio ?

    EF, Anyone have any idea what the deer health / genetic makeup of the area holds? Of course there is always some sleepers everywhere. Just trying to get an overall feel if this is just an average county in Ohio. Thanks

    Multiple Tag Colorado Hunts

    This topic comes up a lot so I thought I'd offer my perspective after just trying to complete the "family's" self generated archery Slam competition. In the end it didn't work and I wouldn't use my deer points again like this. Stage setter: 12 Days to tag an elk, muley, bear / Sept 13 to 25th...

    DIY Skull cleaning

    We have had our best luck with a Dawn/ 12 Mule Borax Combo. Looks great for all the problems you describe. I use Elmers wood glue when patching skull pieces together. Heres some pics for ideas for the next one.

    NW Colorado Archery Elk Report

    The morning started on 16 Sept with high expectations. I honestly didn't think we would get it done on day one though. We talked about our game plan for the past few weeks and how we would tackle the full moon. My son and I agreed we needed to be roughly 1.7 miles in an hour before light was...

    Need some Eastmans Forum positive vibes tonight!

    Kid stuck a very respectable muley at dusk. Gonna be a long night! Good shot, solid impact. Went running into the bedding area/heavy timber with a Rage Hyperdermic and half a 5mm carbon arrow in him. For all those that have had to let one set overnight, please say an extra prayer. Really want...

    NW Colorado Report From Camp

    Animals are screaming from 0400 to 1000 daily. We got it done day one and put a nice little 4x5 down. Saw one bear so far. Switching gears to muleys in the am. Temps today in the shade at 10,000 were 46 degrees so I'm guessing 65 in the sun. Will post pics and a story when we get to town...

    Last Full Moon Before the Elk Rut..........

    For many of us the entire year is spent thinking about September. The Harvest Moon will be here soon. Time to be in the woods with family and arguably some of the best friends you will have in your life. Books could be written (books have been written) on the virtues that hunting can help...

    T. A. G. Game Bags

    Looking to get a set of the med bags and the BOMB bags. Where is the best place to purchase? Seems to be a wide range of prices and places with limited advertising on the Internet. Thanks in advance. 15 days till the Colorado archery opener!
