Rubber nobs on Summit tree stand foot rest

The rubber nobs that keep the footrest on my Summit Goliath tree stand from making noise when they come in contact with the base of the tree stand have dry rotted and need to be replaced. Summit does not sell this item so I will need to find something to make new nobs out of. Anyone ever do this who...

Cleaned Corn vs Regular Corn for Deer

A friend of mine says the deer he feds like the cleaned corn from a feed store way better than Walmart cleaned corn or just regular old corn. Anyone ever experience this. I have never baited deer, but am giving it some thought.

How loud is a crankaroo

In my mind I imagine it being as loud as the crank used to pull an aluminum boat up on a trailer. How loud is it really. Would it frighten deer in the woods if I used it there. Thanks

Can anyone make a suggestion for a jacket that fits that description. Many pockets is the main thing I need, I could...

Late Season Deer Movement

Normally in northern Ohio this time of year we are below freezing most nights. Under these conditions the deer move at night and are in the woods and bedded by the time the sun rises. For this reason it has been my experience that bowhunting in the morning is not very productive. We have had some wa...

Morning Buck Sightings

I have been seeing a fair number of bucks in the evenings. Have not been able to hunt mornings due to work. May be able to hunt Sat morning. Is anyone seeing bucks moving much in the morning yet. Thanks

Re: Cutting carbon bolts

Thanks for the offer xcaliber. My dad has a dremel tool so I think I will try that and save the money on the shipping. Thanks again.

Cutting carbon bolts

What is the best way to cut carbon bolts to make them shorter. Is there a way to cut them with something people have in their garage. If not can someone recommend an economical saw to cut carbon bolts. Thanks

Re: Anitperspirant and warm feet

Cabela's rubber boots with 2,000 grams of thinsulate. I wear a polypropylene sock liner with a wool sock over it. I dry the boots well on a boot dryer between uses. I doubt much breathing is going on though.

Anitperspirant and warm feet

Has anyone ever tried putting antiperspirant on their feet to stop them from sweating to keep their feet warm on a cold long sit on a tree stand. Does it make a difference. Negative 10 here today with a negative 30 wind chill. Thinking about hunting an unpicked soybean field tonight. May have to pul...
