My son needed some holes made a few years ago on some hilly , rocky terrain . He rented a 2 man gas operated post hole digger . We still had to dig because of the large rocks in the grounf . If you have someone to help , the 2 man rig might work for you .

Target practice on State Land
fasteddie replied to erussell's topic in Guns and Rifles and Discussions
I wouldn't think the DEC would condone target practice on State land . Like Dave Boone mentioned they certainly don't want the trees chewed up / riddled with bullets ! -
You could cut some lengths of the drainage tubing , slit it and put it around the base of the tree to keep the rabbits from eating the bark .

They probably should have given the guy a Brain Scan while they had him on the table ! ??? Maybe he was in a bar and ordered a "Screwdriver" instead of a wrench ! :

This financial crisis is forcing State and local agencies to make some tough decisions. If things continue for much longer, there's a real risk that we may have to lay off Jose.

Safety 1st. "Not for those with a weak stomach"
fasteddie replied to erussell's topic in Bow Hunting
That story seems backwards from the picture? The arrow in the picture is entering from the back? I guess it's just a reference picture. Wow an initiation to a rafting club. Dumb asses. Yes Burt --- You are right . I searched for the article and the pic and the article do "not" match . -

Here is another See the pics here:http://picasaweb.google.com/CO.Elkaholic/ManShotInHeadByArrow > Anybody know anything about this? All I got was the pics via e-mail. > I'm curious what the story behind it is. > Elkaholic Here is the story that I found on www.askjeeves.com. I entered ( Man shot in the back of the head with an arrow ) and it brought up several articles, Although it does not cooberate the post that the person has seen this posted on his pc 15 years ago(1992) ? Not really to sure what to beleive, One could probably research the ap press as noted in the article to find out more. Below is another example of the rules not being observed - hunting archery calls for even more diligence than target archery by its very nature. Errant arrow pierces man's head Associated Press -- Oct. 14, 2001 BURLINGTON, Vermont -- An Underhill man shot in the back of the head with an arrow while bow hunting is recovering slowly, according to his family members. Ron Derouchie, 24, was recovering at home Friday, Oct. 12, after his brother, Brian, 22, fired an arrow into the back of his head. The arrow penetrated Ron Derouchie's skull and pierced his brain, stepmother Wendy Derouchie said. The family is worried about whether the arrow caused lasting vision damage. Ron Derouchie is having trouble sleeping and not feeling well, but his outlook is good, she said. "He has a lot of headaches," Wendy Derouchie said. "He gets really tired." The brothers were hunting deer at about 5:30 p.m. Tuesday in Underhill when the incident occurred, said Lt. Robert Rooks, acting chief of law enforcement for the Fish and Wildlife Department. Police are treating the incident as accidental. When Ron Derouchie shot, he bumped his brother, who had drawn his arrow back and was preparing to release it, Rooks said. The bump caused Brian Derouchie to swivel as he was shooting, and the arrow hit Ron Derouchie in the back of his head, Rooks said. The fact that the brothers were standing close together prevented the accident from being worse, Rooks said. "The arrow wasn't able to gain the momentum that it would, had it actually been released," he said. Ron Derouchie remained conscious and walked from the woods with his brother, who was shaken by the incident, Wendy Derouchie said. "As they came out of the woods, Ron was calming Brian down," she said. Surgeons spent three hours removing the arrow. -

Here is one of the reports http://ufacts.blogspot.com/2008/06/arrow-in-mans-head-skull.html -
Many of the shops avoid Dry Fires by putting ty-wraps or other devices on the strings . This keeps folks from picking up a bow , drawing it back and having a Dry Fire .

The Quik Spins have little tabs on the vane that would drag on the WB . I had tried a QAD Ultra awwow rest on two different . Neither myself or the shop guy could get good enough clearance with it . It is similar to the RipCord Rest .

I have a Trophy Ridge Drop Zone on one bow and a G5 Expert on another . I went to the drop away rests so I could shoot Quik Spin vanes . The WB makes a difference of 2-3 fps according to my chrono . 2-3 fps is nothing !

I had a Benjamin air rifle when I was a kid . I ruined it by pumping it up way too much . It was a 22 cal and would put a hole through a 1" wooden shed door . I would pump it up and then hold the stock between my legs and use both hands to pump it up more . That wasn't good for the air rifle !
