    European Mount Question

    518BowSlayer replied to NY Region 3 Trapper's topic in Deer Processing

    yes you can put some dish soap in while it boils, works great. as for whitening, I can't help you there. I like the more natural look so I never tried whitening them. here's mine and my father in laws bucks from this year that I did

    Sitka Gear My review

    518BowSlayer replied to Engraver99's topic in Hunting Gear Reviews and Gear Discussions

    those are the exact pieces of Sitka gear I've been eyeballing,(except for the vest because I already own a Milwaukee heated vest) now I might actually pull the trigger on some of this gear. now I have the whole off season to keep an eye on sale prices. my problem has always been sweating up a storm on my way to my stand and then having to sit in it. I sweat so much that no base layer could possibly wick it away. I usually strap my jacket to my backpack but have to wear my bibs on the way in because mine don't zip up enough to go over my boots. looks like the incinerator bibs can be rolled up and strapped just like the jacket and put on when I get to my stand right over heavy boots. seems like the perfect solution to my problem. thanks for the review!!!

    EZ V Sight?

    518BowSlayer replied to 518BowSlayer's topic in Bow Hunting

    you make a good point about the really bright insert, that could be an issue

    EZ V Sight?

    518BowSlayer replied to 518BowSlayer's topic in Bow Hunting

    even though the main goal of it is to use it as a rangefinder at full draw, that's not really what got me interested in it. its just having that open visual and not having deer blocked by pins. I feel like I focus too much on the pin and the target gets blurry. gonna try it with an open mind. might be a flop but it's worth a try

    Favorite way to Cook a Venison Roast

    518BowSlayer replied to BKhunter's topic in Game Recipes / Cooking

    this works with any roast from the back leg. cover with a good dry rub, then garlic butter with rosemary and thyme, wrap in bacon weave, sprinkle with chili powder, smoke at 225 until the internal temp hits 130 and let it rest 10-15 minutes. the low smoking temp makes the meat perfectly pink from edge to edge. and the bacon really soaks up the smoke!!!

    Right in the middle of an all day sit today, had a small doe come by real early and nothing since. Saw a huge 8 point Saturday afternoon from this stand, on the neighbors property of course. Hoping he decides to hang out on this side of the creek tonight Sent from my SM-J327T using Tapatalk

    Is it too late in the season for bucks to be fighting? Saw a small 6 pointer about 20 minutes ago and 10 minutes later heard what sounded like rattling. Sent from my SM-J327T using Tapatalk
