Happy Birthday buddy! I hope you have a great day

On what percentage of your hit deer do you achieve complete pass through?
ATbuckhunter replied to Core's topic in Bow Hunting
Honestly out of the 8 deer that ive shot with my bow, only 3 were pass throughs. I always ended up putting the shot in a bad spot for some reason so I usually hit some type of big bone. One of the reasons I have been thinking of switching to fixed heads is the increase in penetration. Im shooting somewhere in the 60's with a 28" draw -
I made a shotgun thread back in June, but I didnt make a gear thread. Ive been looking at decoys lately, so im also getting the itch lol
-
Good luck!
-
Ive had some huge hits using snappers as bait
-
Same here
-
I agree with grampy. Based on where the neck is meeting the brisket, its looking like a 3 year old
-
Nothing for me this year, but im planning on going next year. No wife or kids so I figure this is the time to get a hunt like that done
-
They have one in east fishkill as well. Only thing i dont like is if you cant pick it up the day they say its going to be ready, they sell it.
-
I second this!
-
Im with you on that. It gets a bit much sometimes, but like you said knowing how your deer was handled means a lot
-
Id call the DEC. I got min with in a week of ordering and thats been my expereince the last few years
-
Right to my kitchen. I butcher all my deer myself
-
Based on my exprience Its not 100 percent necessary for the spots I hunt. Id rather limit my use of permethrin since it is a neurotoxin after all, but I will use it during turkey season and for hunting on Long Island
-
Treat it a day or two before opening day and let it dry. I only ever treat my clothes if im going to be hunting Long Island since I don't usually pick up many ticks upstate for some reason

Happy birthday guys! -
Looks like the men in my family tend to go somewhere in the 80's, but I do have lot that made it to the 90's. The women in my family tend to make it to the 90's. Id be happy making it to my 80's

Saw about 6 or 7 poults on friday when I was scouting
-
Bought a bunch of rage trypans off a friend who no longer hunts, so ill be using that this season. I have been thinking of switching to fixed broadheads
-
Id probably just walk away and say good luck during the season and not to show up or the police will be called. Not sure what he thinks he has over you, but you're best just walking away from those conversations. Not worth an assault charge for a moron

Red dot versus scopes for deer hunting
ATbuckhunter replied to Hunter007's topic in General Chit Chat
Only time I would use a red dot on a deer gun is for drives, when i know the shots will be under 100 and most of the time under 50 yards. Aside from that i prefer scopes always -
Pulled the trigger on a deer rifle
ATbuckhunter replied to turkeyfeathers's topic in Rifle and Gun Hunting
Its going to be way less recoil than a 20 guage so you dont have to be nervous about that at all -
Pulled the trigger on a deer rifle
ATbuckhunter replied to turkeyfeathers's topic in Rifle and Gun Hunting
I highly suggest using the GMX or any copper bullet -
Right this is one of the worst cases, but it is possible. There was a good video of a guy shooting a pig and taking an xray of the pig after he shot it with a lead bullet and you can see the pieces of lead all over the body cavity in the xray
-
I saw it happen when someone shot into a vatt of water. Theres no doubt that lead breaks apart when shot into an animal. If it didnt, we would always have 100 percent weight retention. This is probably one of the extreems on how a bullet can break apart though
