  1. Mine does that too when hanging it higher than normal. Move it down to about 3 or 4' above the ground and try it, It should look fine.
  2. Check out this thread on QDMA forum about home made lifelines. http://www.qdma.com/forums/showthread.php?t=59851
  3. Get an arm guard for bowhunting and strap it over your jacket sleeve. This also happened to me when I started bowhunting. I had to adjust the way I hold my bow twisting my arm a bit. never hit my arm or jacket now.
  4. Did you own the land ? If not did you ask the land owner if he removed them ? I had the land owner remove a couple of ours on our lease.
  5. I took this as payment for a job I did, just needed a new carb. Works like a dream
  6. If you are using Scent Loc or similar ( as I do ) their directions state not to store clothes with any cover scents as it will decrease the effectiveness of the scent control.
  7. Mixed emotions, Agree in areas of low density, but if shooting a spike makes for a memory and an enjoyable hunt it should be legal to do.
  8. When you do look into Newark watershed and Waywayanda state park areas. More bears than ticks
  9. Come here to Jersey, they are like squirrels here
  10. Shoot it, mount it if thats your thing and have some fun with it,
  11. A friend of mine was hunting PA/NY border last year, he shot a nice buck with the bow and drug it down to a logging road and hid it, then went back to get some help and his quad. He came back and the deer was gone and there were truck tracks in the rd near where the deer was. He thinks someone was in a tree on his land watching him hide the deer.
  12. Found that under list of 2013 moons
  13. Oct. 18, 7:38 p.m. EDT —Full Hunters' Moon: With the leaves falling and the deer fattened, it's now time to hunt. Since the fields have been reaped, hunters can ride over the stubble, and can more easily see the fox, as well as other animals, which can be caught for a thanksgiving banquet after the harvest.

You attach to a prussic knot and slide it up as you climb. still need to be strapped in to attach it the first time tho.
  17. Try practicing breathing thru your nose when shooting, maybe that will help ?
  18. Not too far from you. Just outside of Downsville by the Pepacton
  19. I've been a Fireman many yrs, we use these for our PPE masks. They work well. http://solutions.3m.com.au/wps/portal/3M/en_AU/PPE_SafetySolutions_APAC/Safety/Products/Product-Catalog/?PC_7_U00M8B1A0OVPD0IF18DPBAB0I5000000_nid=MR9PD0WVD9gsH0F9BQFTN3glCG9WR1HZKWbl
  20. We need to start thinking about our family and the impact on them if we should get hurt or killed,
