  1. It looks like a crossbow without the string and limbs .
  2. I do some reloading for myself and my sons . Cut and refletch some new arrows and shoot during the summer . I used to shoot woodchucks for farmers and may start doing that again since gas prices have dropped . I do a little Geocaching and sometimes play around with the metal detector . Between January 1st and October 1st I try to catch up on the "honey do " jobs .
  3. No fooling ! You brought up the bit about "the Challange" . Why not just make the 22 legal .
  4. Wow ! That thing looks like it should be under the hood of a muscle car !
  5. I have shot several deer with a 25-06 . They didn't go anywhere but down !
  6. Why not just go with a 22 hollow point . It's the same diameter ( .224 ) as a 223 . Just less speed and a lot less noise .
  7. I wouldn't pay $1000 for any Remington !
  8. In the wrong hands , it is a terrible cartridge !
  9. Congrats ! It took me 5 kids to figure out what was causing them ......
  10. I am finding this story hard to believe ...... A lensatic compass should work anywhere unless you are in a steel building . The neck isn't 4 feet from the lungs / heart ( kill zone ) . If you hit the deer in the neck and hit 4 feet from where you aimed , you must have been aiming at the deer's butt ! Expert marksman ??? Must have been hunting in the Twilight Zone . Just my opinion .
  11. Welcome to Hunting NY !
  12. I am going to wait a few days before pulling my cameras to see what has survived the hunting season .
  13. You got it nyslowhand . I put up stands alone myself and that is pretty much how I do it . I make sure the ladder brace is attached also so the ladder doesn't bow when climbing up to secure the seat platform . It's a bit scarey to climb up without using the lashing ropes so I don't do that anymore as it is really an unsafe practice .
  14. That's okay . Red Fox has been dead for several years !
  15. I believe Bubba is referring to "NY Bowhunters Association" . That is a group / organization that fought to keep Crossbows out of hunting and felt that only long bows , recurves and compounds should be allowed to hunt with . And then it was a matter of not wanting the Youth Hunt during the Bow Season . I don't belong the the NY Bowhunters Assoc as I don't agree with all of their thinking . ( note : I am guessing that where Bubba is coming from )
  16. There are some bow hunters that feel the way the writer stated but to include all is BS . Plus the jerk wants to divide the hunting community by alienating bowhunters with the cross-bow , Ml and gun hunters . The guy has to be too stupid to not know that many of us hunt with 2 , 3 or all of the implements !
  17. I don't like the way the jaws are tightened by racheting the cables to the bottom section of the ladder . The way the support bar is attached looks suspect . Let us know how well it works for you . https://x-stand.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/ONYX_Manual.pdf
  18. Karl Gundel from Tivoli wrote to the NYOD knocking Bow Hunters as being selfish , blah , blah blah . He pretty much grouped all bow hunters as being selfish and wanting the woods to themselves . This guy stated that rifle , muzzleloader and cross-bow hunters need to form an alliance against bowhunters ! Nothing like wanting to divide the hunting community ! I hunt bow , gun and ML and take offense to this dip-wads letter !
  19. That wouldn't have been a big problem for me . I am only about 1 mile from the Ontario Gun Club . I did forget my full length ramrod on the last trip . That's why I used my adapters ........and shot them .
  20. If I use my 2-man ground blind I take a TC fiberglass ramrod along with me . Apparently no one else has had any type of mishap / brain fart at the range or just don't want to admit it .
  21. Evercalm. goes for about $19.95 at DICKs and looks like a deodorant case . I have never had any luck with it but that's just me .
  22. The only thing I didn't care about the interview was Eva using the term "Harvesting" .
