Re: FREE Binoculars draw (March 4th)

Could you add my son Noah, to the mix? He'd love them for bird watching, hunting, and such.
Thanks for the opportunity.

Re: How to Identify a Meth Lab

As I read the intro I knew something was coming, but it was still damn funny :D I have Brittanys but those labs are beautiful until they start messing around with that meth crap. Sad for a dog to go that way :(

Re: pics heavy

Those pics are very clear. What kind of camera are they from? I've got an old Stealth Cam and am looking to upgrade.

Re: Thumbhole vs Traditional stock

Agreed with all. Opinions vary and it's whatever suits your fancy. I went with the Phoenix as opposed to the Ibex after the salesman asked me what kind of stock I had on my rifles and shotguns, traditional or thumbhole? It was a rhetorical question that made sense to me. I did however try an Excalib...

Convinced.

After a few frustrating years bow hunting I decided to buy an Excalibur. last year. I went with the Phoenix after reading many opinions and reviews. It shot great and I was very impressed but I always wondered how it would do on a deer, having only 305 fps or so. I can't remember who, but somebody o...

Re: Anyone use a red dot?

I have a red dot on my Phoenix and I like it a lot. Keep it simple. I'm scoped in at 25 yards. Raise dot for further and lower dot for closer. I don't have to sit and think about which dot I'm supposed to use. One problem though: Don't leave the light on and drain the battery or you're screwed :(

Re: Waxing

I found it. Man that was easy. I feel like an idiot. Actually, before I posted here my wife and I were talking about it and we both agreed that you probably pull the wax out of the container and rub it on the serving, turning it as you go. So common sense prevailed. Thanks for the quick response &qu...

Re: Waxing

Are you kidding? I went to the "instructional videos" and looked all over for it and couldn't find much on the web or youtube and I was getting frustrated. Thanks for the info. I'll go back and check it out.

Waxing

No, this is not a question just for the ladies out there :wink: . I bought some Excalibur serving wax and was kind of disappointed in the directions on how to use it (seeing there were no directions). It only states: "Apply to crossbow string serving at least every 50 shots for max. benefit.&qu...

O/T Massey 50

I'm currently in the market for a used tractor. I need something to pull a belly mower or PTO driven mower. Something like a Woods 59". I also want something for my food plots. I only put in about 2 acres or so but I thinking about a PTO driven 5 foot tiller as opposed to a disk or plow. I've f...

Re: OT- Duck ID help needed

I looked at the picture and said, "That's a bluebill." Then scanned down to see the other posts. I was actually impressed that I could identify a duck more than a mallard or woody :D I've never seen one in real life but you can't mistake that bill, especially in the third picture. It's act...

Hospitals suck whether you are the one in the bed or the one in the uncomfortable chair in the corner :( I hope he and his family are out soon :)

Re: spring time means plots,brooks and birds. count downs on

Looks inviting? What do you have planted in the food plot? Looks like some clover (purple heads). What are the "red flower" and the large leafed plants (brassica?)? I plant a couple of acres of sorghum which is great for pheasants but the deer seem to leave it alone except for bedding. Onc...
