I carry a couple of gallon bags for the heart and liver; sandwich bags for the paper harvest tag.

I also carry a glow stick in my pack for when I kill a deer at the end of the day. It makes it a lot easier to find the downed deer in the dark and they are 2 for $1.00 at the dollar store.

Anybody have experience with this scope? I'm a Leupold man for the most part but I like the looks of this one. How does the range finding feature work? Doesn't seem to be the normal way of bracket the deer between two horizontal lines. I think it would look good on a new Nightmare 8) ! There isn't ...

If you treat your clothing with permethrin you will not find any ticks on you or your clothing. As a bonus it kills those nasty buggers.

They are tough critters for sure. They can go a long way on adrenaline.

Homemade granola bars using this recipie. I substitute 1/2 a cup of unsweetened apple sauce for 1/2 a cup of the butter. Far better than what you get in the store and no noisy wrapper to deal with. http://www.kitchenstewardship.com/2012/08/03/ks-healthy-granola-bar-recipe-classic/?ap_id=stacymakesce...

Is it possible that you got a counterfeit Rage Broadhead?

Lots of counterfeit broadheads showing up on Amazon, Ebay, Alibaba etc.

Bob
