You walked nearly 1/4 mile to kill a prairie dog? That's dedication.

Never owned but they always get good reviews. made in ny?

I believe him. Note the straight brim. Biz, this guy and ricky fowler (the "Crew").

I didn't know this until recently but various seed is engineered and rated to mature at different rates. I assume the farmer planted the seed appropriate for a shorter growing season.

Light 25" ilf risers with varying inexpensive limb sets might be the ticket.

Will also check with my buddy who does Boy Scout archery instruction and see what they use.

Bob, I think the flash will be too small for anyone over elementary school size. Its only 47 inch long and I am sure will stack heavy at near adult size draw lengths. How many bows do you plan to purchase? I would be looking for something that is closer to 68-70", draw weight around 20lbs at 28 and perhaps have both right and some left hand models available vs. trying to use a dual purpose. You could talk to some from JOAD (junior Olympic archery program) and see what they recommend. I believe there are a few coaches in Rochester. https://www.pointstothecross.com/our-classes/

Those are 2 wide bucks. Good luck with them!

I always thought MD has one of the highest whitetail deer populations in the country.

Hopefully no cats around to scare those bears off.

what were you then about 7 years old?

I certainly could have Bob - no lie. It was a bit surreal to watch it playing out, being so close, knowing where he is going and not being able to identify a possible shot. That's the first thing I do when I see a target -- figure out where I plan to shoot it. THERE WAS NO GOOD SHOT anywhere from that tree with a bow. Comical really.

Few years ago, first week of bow season, Phade texts me that I have a big 10pt coming down my trail. I could see him winding his way towards me but the trail is literally right below the stand (narrow trail with a stream with brush on one side and heavy brush on the other). I keep waiting for a decent shot and mind is racing as I don't see it happening. Only hard quartering too offered so I stand and wait while he passes right under me. I was not comfortable with the straight down shot either and as he keeps going I just watch his butt walking straight away until he hits my scent stream and bolts. Beautiful buck. I sat there thinking, what should I have done - I couldn't figure it out while it was slowly happening. Nicest buck I never got a shot on and only 1yd away. lol Came to the conclusion that there really was nothing I could have done other than take the quartering too shot or straight down shot - neither of which I liked. Or maybe I should have found a different tree in the brush to sit - we didn't want to have to enter that brush it was so thick with sharp spines. That buck survived another encounter with a different hunter later in gun season at 20yds when the hunter forgot to either remove the safety or cock the gun (don't recall). Not sure what happened as we never saw him after that season. Good lesson for me on setting stands - don't be lazy and be sure you have a shot to where you expect the deer to be!

In DEC's defense, I guess that is the type of property by property management some here would advocate.

Is that a DMAP? Even though I have shot a couple on nuisance tags, I forget the distinction.

wise woman .... must have been an anomaly when she said yes to your proposal. Sorry Lar, too big of a softball .

so do they give nuisance tags to the same landowners that cannot get DMPs? That seems really silly.

Toss a buck or two in for good measure. That will teach those nasty developers.

He is always to blame!

I have not looked yet, but I am guessing 8H is a high probability for DMPs.

You might want to reconsider. Ask Wolc.

Just shoot the buttons - you can grab them with one hand and wing them in the truck. Heck, you may be able to just put a leash on them and take em home live. No special ramp needed.

The kit has gun and headlamp. So much easier to scan with headlamp.

Or on head. Lol

You plan on Yote hunting at night. Bite the bullet and buy the wicked lights package. The headlamp has all three colors, can be dimmed and focused, and the white is perfect for tracking.
