Printable "Vitals" target

I drew this up, it's no professional job, may not be close to anatomically correct etc etc. If you want to print it to dress up your tired old target please feel free. http://users.eastlink.ca/~ratherbefishing/Killzone001.JPG It's based off pictures and targets/bags I've seen, but I created it from ...

Re: Ground Blinds

Are you packing in and packing it out each time? I'm a firm believer you get what you pay for and that is one I use Double Bull. But, I leave mine out all season, in fact just put them out a couple of days ago. I may have to take it out with me near daily, at most leave it over night if I'm going t...

Ground Blinds

I see there are a few threads that have recommendations and some review type responses on different ones. I'm in the market for one to use with the crossbow this season. I see the doghouse and similar clones are spoken highly of and are readily available from a few sources in my area. I'd just like ...

Re: Pic's of the Twins

Nature is cruel sometimes.

Re: Can someone explain the proper way to install a string?

This may be silly, but should you alternate which side you add turns to while tightening up a string? Or will it matter in the end?

I'm not sure what to think of this, my thought is this obviously isn't the first time they've met. Wouldn't be me I don't think.

Re: Latest Leather Project - I'm Hooked

Too bad I missed it.. Unless you plan to sell it, there is no issue with using their logo. Better yet, Browning is one of those companies who enjoy seeing people get creative with their design. Matter of fact, they have been known to send free rifles to consumers who get real creative, and they use...

Re: Latest Leather Project - I'm Hooked

Thanks guys, I'll take the one pic down. I never thought of it potentially being trouble as I wasn't selling it etc. Either way it's easier this way

Thanks for the kind comments however.

Latest Leather Project - I'm Hooked

I daydreamed up an idea for the stock of my Browning .270 as it has a number of wear/battle scars. It's just a prototype, I plan to make another add 1 or 2 more bullet sleeves and better finish etc. And lace it properly. (just noticed it was inconsistent) http://users.eastlink.ca/~ratherbefishing/le...

Basically, it's personal preference. There is no real proof one is better than the other imo.
