I shoot the bow with both eyes open . I also shoot a scoped rifle with both eyes open .

The person that irritates me is the BS'er that is walking across / threw your hunting area claiming he is tracking a deer that he hit with his gun when no shots have been fired . He shows you a leaf with red on it that you can pick up anywhere during the fall season . No deer has come through and no tracks where he is walking . My sister in law has kicked several tresspassers off her property over the years !

Doc .........You have to wait until you turn 70 in order to get anymore breaks .............. ???

What's nice about fletching your own is that you can tweak your arrows . Kinda like doing you own relaoding . Cut your own arrows , add weight , etc to chance you FOC . Fletch them to get the flight that you want out of them . It's fun to buy bare shafts and make you arrows from the ground up ! ;D

Nice job with the plot . Hope it grows in time to draw the deer in this year .

Wow ! I checked it out and found my son and myself on the Newer One . I looked on the older one and found a couple of friends that havn't re-newed in several years .

Good idea . Then those who are interested in the X-bows won't be posting in the Bow Hunting Forum ....... Two Thumbs Up !

Three doctors are waiting in line to get into the pearley gates . St Peter walks out and asks the 1st one , " What have you done to enter heaven ? " " I am a pediatrician and have brought thousands of the Lord's babies into the world . " " Good enough to enter the gates ," replied St Peter and in he goes . The same question is asked of the 2nd doctor . " I am a general practioner and I go to Third World countries three times a year to cure the sick ." St Peter is impressed and allows him through the gates . The 3rd doctor steps up in line and knowing the question blurts out , " I am a director of an HMO ." St Peter meditates on this for a while and then says , " Fine , you can enter Heaven ............. but only for two days . "

I use the CCI 450 for my 223 and the CCI 200 large rifle primers tor the 270

I use the 3/16 peep for hunting . I see too much with the 1/4" peep .

I was fletching with 2" Blazer Vanes and switched to the NAP Quik-Spins . I had to notch out my Arizona EZ-Fletch so the little tabs would clear easier on removal from the jig .

boresight or paper target ?
fasteddie replied to skyzmine's topic in Guns and Rifles and Discussions
I prefer to shoot the single shots and I do an actual boresight .... I get out my Black and Decker foldong bench with the vice and set it up in the family room . I break open the rifle and put it in the vice and adjust it by looking through the barrel and adjust everything until the light on my neighbor's garage ( about 50+ yards across the way) is centered in the barrel . I then adjust the scope until I have the scope centered and recheck the barrel and scope . The gun is then ready for the range . Now , if someone is going to tell me this is dangerous , save it . The action is open and I can see through the barrel . It isn't loaded ! -
bpb ------ Those dumbasses were not shooting at the berm . They were just having fun at the expense of putting others in danger . The berm could have been 30 feet high and it wouldn't have mattered . They were not shooting from the bench area . They were out onto the range .

Good idea . I think we should be a bit selective on language used on the site .

How many of you have Smart Phones? (Blackberry, Android, iPhone)
fasteddie replied to HuntingNY's topic in General Chit Chat

How about a Red circle around a crossbow with a slash through the circle ! : .. .. ..

The Ontario Rod & Gun Club range was shut down for rifles , pistols and slug guns for about 1 year . A homeowner who resides on Putnam Road (about 1 mile morth of the range) was playing catch with his daughter . A 3 year old was running around in the yard . They never had any fear when they heard gun shots as it was a common occurance . Early one evening , the home owner said he heard a "pfffffftttttt" and a noise like someone threw a stone at the pool . He looked and saw water coming out of a hole in his pool . He took the kids in the house and put them in the basement and called 911 to report what happened . They told him to wait at the house and he said Bulls--t , they're still shooting . When he got to the range , two a-holes were shooting AR-15's John wayne style and spraying the woods . The guy laid on his horn but they were wearing ear protection . He got out and ran toward the closest guy waving his arms . The guy stopped shooting and waved to his buddy . A trooper showed up as well as the President of the club . They all drove over to the house on Putnam . The home owner pulled the cover back off the pool , climbed in and gave the bullet to the Trooper . One of the shooters said he would pay to have the damage repaired as his family runs a restaurant / bar on Lake Road in Webster . Then this piece of crap backed out and told the homeowner that it was the Club's problem . A real classy guy !!! > .. > .. > The guy had his membership revoked and neither one is welcome back . We all had to go through a safety certification in order to use the range after that . Anyway , the two shooters had shot over the top of a high berm , through a large wooed area and managed to put a hole in a swimming pool almost one mile away . Oh yeah , they said each of them had fired 2 1/2 thirty round clips . There were 2 holes in the target at the berm . All they got was a slap on the wrist ! > .. > .. >

My son was quite happy with the reloads that I did for his 270 . He bought some extra powder , primers and bullets at Beikirch's as a lot of the reloading supplies has become scarce . I used the full size die and the rounds are grouping fine a hit a tad higher than the Factory loads . That report made me feel good !

I had always purchased a Super sportsman's license with the archery , muzzleloader , etc . The Lifetime License is only a Sportsman's License so I still have to pay for the Archery , Muzzle loader and extras . I don't have to pay the $10 fee to apply for doe tags . Wow !!! It's still a good deal .

Great pics . That must have been an exhilarating experience ......

Nice pics !

The HSS ( hunter safety system ) is quite comfortable but it has a bit of weight due to the buckles . The vest keeps your shirt / jacket close to your body . Yes , it's a bit pricy but cheaper than a wheelchair . IF folks don't want to use them , that's their business . I would just like to see people be safe .

Make the buck and bedded doe a bit smaller and the sillouette of NY in the middle . Then you will have room for some birds .......

Last year two young men were hunting with a group that was doing a deer drive in the town of Arcadia . They had seen several deer in an open field and fired a number of shots toward a trailer park . One round entered an occupied modular home in the park. The slug went through an exterior wall and came to rest in the master bedroom . Both hunters were arrested and released and scheduled to return to court at a later date . This was done with a shotgun . I wonder how much worse it may have been with a rifle .........

" I don't know " either . I havn't heard of many accidental shootings with rifles . There have been a few erratic shots going into home . Two year's a go , a hunter was shooting at a deer north of Rt 104 in Ontario , NY . He fired a few shots at a deer that was running south of him . The hunter shot a hole through the front window of Phil's Automotive Shop that is on the south side of Rt 104 so the slug (shotgun) traveled across 4 lanes of traffic and uphill . Phil's son , Mike had walked past the window a few seconds earlier . The slug passed through a couple of thin walls , hit a steel beam and dropped . The shooter was arrested . Phil standing next to one of the slug holes .........
