Tommy, thought you were done with school, whatcha doin' with that "bookbag"?
-
I'm a computer technician and will travel, how good is the hunting?
-
I always come up with something lying around. Was planning on using cardboard but may go with the rag idea. Either one is free.
-
For some reason, I can't view the video and would love to. Any alternate links?

Planning to make one for free Tommy, thanks for the input.

Personally, I think the trespassers should have also been charged. Although not the right thing to do to fire on them, these brothers were just reacting to a situation. They made bad decisions in using a rifle in a no rifle zone, and intentionally shooting at a person. But nevertheless, those 2 hunters should not have been where they were in the first place. The 2 brothers is they had 1/2 a brain would hire a good lawyer and drop the charges down to a violation and be on their merry way.

I hunt small game with em, so gun season is also next week, matter of fact it's been gun season since sept 1st. But technically, gun season is also next week, for small game. Just sayin'

Thanks guys for the feedback. I always carry my license when I enter the woods, but that's a great reminder. My bow isn't exactly what u would call today's set ups. It's a 4-5 year old bow that I picked up on craigslist. I haven't had a chance to chronograph the bow yet for speed, but a buddy that shoots a similar setup is shooting ~200 fps. I figured with everyone claiming the "most shots closer than 20" statement, i rather have 2 pins in that zone just to increase my chances. On my next range time, I'll have to reconsider that 10 yard pin. This is especially so now that I feel my 20 yard shots are getting better with each time I'm at the range. Thing about the target is it'll be a one time use thing, and I'd really rather not spend that kinda $ on something I'll use only once. It's not like I have a place to shoot that I can reuse it. I'll just have to take my chances with an old rotted tree or something.

I've got 3 pins on my sight, and pins 1 and 2 are currently set for 10 yards and 20 yards. I've been mostly practicing 20 yards at my indoor range and has been getting good results in the last 2 outings. I want to set my last pin for 40 yards, but don't want to wait to go to the only range I know of that opens later in the week. Can this be done in the woods with some downed trees? Do I have to worry about breaking my arrows on trees?

What's a cut on contact head?

Pretty sure this tread didn't specify for deer.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the golden rod?

And don't get caught with it in restricted areas like NYC without the proper permits.

Move the stand closer and shoot his ass. Or create a new app Bear Logic and get it done!
-
Great story, and I like the attitude of not shooting another. It's what I think all hunters should do if they missed and fatally injured their target.
-
Goes to show, don't hunt someone else's deer! Some people are real passionate about their deer!
-
I guess things are a bit different then. Pretty sure with the crowd we have downstate, it's probably not a great idea, especially with rifles.
-
The way things are going these days with everyone leasing their land, this clause is void as it's only intended for non-paying hunters. For the small amount from a lease, not worth the liability IMO.
-
I mentioned ethics because hunters discharging firearms is once in a while only when game is in sight. Target practice I would think is unnecessary discharge, especially if there is a range nearby that can accomplish the same thing. I'm probably the last person that would want to pay for gas and range fees to sight in a gun, but I also think it's the safe and responsible thing to do.

Sighting in the woods where others may be hunting? Is that legal/ethical?
