  1. What I see in that video is a young lady who is enjoying herself in the woods when most kids are stuck in front of some time of electronic device. I could care less what weapon she uses. She (along with every other young hunter) is what will keep our sport going. I for one will be trying this beast style hunting this off season. It sounds like fun and it's something new for me. I would take phade up on the scouting trip, you might learn something and what is the harm in that?

  2. Had to work yesterday morning. Got out of work at noon, was in the stand by 3:30pm. I forgot my binocs but I saw what I thought was a deer a field over from me around 445. Anyway, shortly after 6 I have a fork horn at 24 yards and a spike is following him. Well the fork was in my shooting lane he lifts his head in the air, licks his nose and is sniffing hard. The wind was blowing in my face, he shouldn't have been able to smell me. He stands there for about a minute and then works his way into the woods and the spike takes the same exactly path. I'm glad I choose to let him walk because my dad goes over the radio he needs a drag rope (which neither of us had). He arrowed a nice fat doe. Needless to say I'm happy with my stand placements thus far lol. We also forgot to have a processer lined up for such a warm day. Luckily a buddy came up big with a phone number and we will have her back on friday.

  3. My question would be WHY would any guy want to take the other half hunting?  To me hunting is about the only time I can escape family commitment, so why bring it all with me when I want some peace and quiet for a change??  No way for me.  Women can get under a guys skin without even trying hard, so why subject myself to it the few weekends each year I want to escape everything?   No bloody way.   If they want to go hiking in the woods to enjoy nature, no problem, we can do that the rest of the year.  Hunting I will do solo.

     

    I proposed to my fiance in a turkey blind. She gets how big of a deal hunting is to me, she wanted to try something I love, why wouldn't I take her? Hunting to me isn't a way to escape, it has always been more about spending time with people you care about and sharing in tradition. If you are going hunting to get away from your everyday life it's time to look at your life and change some things.

  4. Oh, God:  I am going to cry!  You guys who use trail cameras, hi-tech weapons and ammo, hunt over food plots (aka bait piles) and then claim to "respect" your quarry are NUTS!  All of your "cover my ass" arguments are simply bull!  Hey...I go hunting...if I score, I celebrate...Big deal!  If I had a great deal of "respect" for the game animals I hunt...I would not hunt them.  You apologist hunters should give up your guns and join PETA!

     

    I can barely hear you while you are on that really tall horse.

  5. If I want to give my dad or one of my buddies a high five or a quick hollar because we just had a succesful hunt I will do so. I bought my lisence just like you did, I have the right to take a few minutes and enjoy the moment. We put a lot of time in scouting, hanging stands, triming shooting lanes, target practice ect. Please don't preach that if I celebrate a kill with those I hunt with I'm not respecting my quarry. I have a great appreciation for the animals I hunt. To this day my eyes still tear up when I take an animal. If you want to get on someone for not having respect for the game we hunt talk to the paper plate shooters, tresspassers and deer jackers. Not the guy who puts the time in to make sure it's done right.

  6. I will be using rage xtrem 2 blade. I have had good luck with them. Blood trails are pretty amazing with them. Whatever you do decide to go with make sure they are hitting with your field points. I've seen too many guys not test broadheads and the results are ugly.
