It's amazing what some people will do. We lost a great place to bow hunt once because of something similar. The farmers let anyone hunt bow but no guns. Never pressed the issue as it was fine with me. WEll one idiot has to sneak in during shotgun hunt and blew it for everybody.

For me it depends if I'm just grabing something on the way home nope not changing but if I'm done for the day yes I will change as I don't want to stink up my camo. I do have a few old camo shirts thou that are worn year round.

If you want to bleach the rack make sure you wrap what ever you don't want white with plastic wrap. Bleach does a good job at turning everything white. May just want to leave it out in the sun to get more natural look.

Your pull is too short. With your finger in the trigger housing hold your arm sideways then bend arm up. The butt should be in the crock of your elbow for proper fit.

My Dad uses a Rem 11-87 with a rifled choke tube. Like others have said challengers are great from a smooth bore but Dad found the cheap Federal sabot slugs to be more accurate and better performance on deer. I have a couple of challenger slugs like posted picture but the fact is they are from recov...

WE use to put corn out but after sitting and watching coon, bluejays, caanada jays and squirells take the corn all day long we no longer put it out. Apples only but won't start till late Sept. May try some carrots this year we also have minerals at our stands.
