Crap. Wrong Arrows. Does it matter?
Just bought some new arrows/bolts for my Exomax and noticed that the fletching on the new ones I bought are 3 3/4 inches in length. The bolts that came with the Exomax are 5 inch. So, how are the new 3 3/4" arrows going to perform compared to the 5"? I'm using the broadheads that came with...

I went to Buffalo yesterday. Oh boy! I don't know what was going on at the Lewiston bridge but I have never seen it that busy before. We waited an hour. Border guards walking up the line of traffic and putting these scanners of some sort on the sides of peoples doors, inspecting trunks while we wait...

Lots of ideas but I don't have a freezer or generator. So my alternative is a large coleman cooler 150 quart and dry ice, which I'm trying to find right now. Wal-mart up here don't sell them that big but the Wal-mart in the USA does. Le baron sells them but for $220. no way! Wal-mart in the U.S. $79...

I guess I'll take some coolers and dry ice and bone out the animal. Though, I do like the idea of a generator and freezer. The last time I was moose hunting I was on a fly-in (1995). I got a bull on day 3 of a 7 day hunt/fish. The temp was 15C. By the time I got back to Toronto the meat had gone bad...

Care of game meat
I'm heading to the Chapleau, Ontario area for moose/bear mid to late September. It's about a 7 hour drive from my place.
Upon killing, what is the best method for preserving the meat? Head home quick? Dry ice?
What's your method to prevent meat from spoiling?

Oh, by the way, I was just doing some target shooting and I notice the broadheads shoot much lower then the field points. Is this normal? I'm using the Boss broadheads that came with the bow, as well the field points. I'm an old pistol/rifle shooter from yesteryear and I have a good idea how ammunit...

Excalibur hats
So I'm in Le Baron this morning picking up some stuff for the upcoming moose season...and deer season, and I ask about buying a Excalibur ball cap. The sales guy tells me they are in the box when you buy a bow. I bought the Exomax last December and 'The Right Stuff', no hat. He asks where I bought t...

Well, a different class of competition. What was I thinking. Give my head a shake. Honda copies a lot BMW's design. We'll save that topic for around the fire pit. I rent BMW cars when I go to Germany, as well I did a tour of the Dingolfing plant years ago. Impressive! Love there cars but a little mo...
