Re: Another look at 100 yard shooting
I've killed bucks at 50+ yds but they were relaxed and feeding. I've also seen other hunters try long range shots and hit the deer in crazy places as they responded to the sound of the shot. The mind set of the animal should always be considered .

Closer to the center serving will slow it down. The tests i have done were done on recurves and longbows, and I would think t...

Re: Coyote hunting apps
I can't recommend an app for sounds but I can recommend a few for checking wind direction. Huntstand and Antler Insanity are the best I've found. They'll help you decide where to hunt that day and also which side of the field to setup on if applicable. I started out using these for deer hunting but ...

Re: Exomax Anti-Dry Fire
I installed one on my Exocet 200 for a peace of mind. It would probably survive a dry fire but I don't want to chance it.
