Re: Bad hunting season

Same situation for me. Bucks only in northern Marinette County and they only show up at midnight on the game cameras. Had eight separate bucks on the camera all fall and three days before gun opener they all disappeared ? Sucks about the truck. Came close about four years ago. Came over a hill and i...

Re: OT: Struck A Win For Men Today!

Congrats,

Ironically both myself and my wife forgot our 7th a few years ago. We were on our way up to the cabin and looked at each other with this look and both said "Was last week our anniversary?" Then started laughing.

Re: Micro 335 Camo ( spec/questions ? )

7/32", the above post is incorrect. I really like a Black Eagle Executioner 16.5" .003 for the value and durability and use a aluminum front insert with a 170 grain FOC mechanical broadhead. The Arizona Bolt EZ fletch gives me the perfect helical using 2" Blazers. Total weight is 375...

Re: 9 point buck photo!

Very Nice deer!

If I may, what broad head, how long of a shot and how far did he go before expiring ?

Micro 335 Camo ( spec/questions ? )

First, does anyone know what the hex key size is for the main bolt that attaches the riser to the rail ? Secondly, what are some suggestions for arrows to try ? I have 125 gr QAD Exodus broad heads and want to keep arrow weight around 375-390 grains. Also, with the shorter arrow, is a helical twist ...

Re: Thoughts on this injury?

That is an arrow, three blade entry (Seen something similar a few years ago). More than likely some idiot with a low powered bow either took waaaay tooo long of a shot or arrow deflected off something and didn't have any ke left when it hit the deer. Deer probably knocked/pulled it out rubbing again...

Re: Should I buy another ?

So I got home from opening gun season. (No deer seen and very few shots heard opening weekend up nort) I finally was able to put together the new micro 335 camo I purchased. I must say, it is incredibly narrow compared to my grizzly. But, it seems fairly heavy compared to the Grizzly. Also looks lik...

Re: Should I buy another ?

So I decided "what the heck" and purchased it as it is one of those types of deals that I have passed on in the past and then kicked myself for not following thru. Ok, so now that it is a done deal. Someone "Anthony? lol" please tell me how to tell my wife without getting that &q...
