take a look at the Ruger American they make the .308 in full size & compact they are very light & not much recoil a lot of bang for your buck great feeling bolt adjustable set trigger you will need a scope as they do not have iron sights bought one for my daughter & she loves it. Her's is full size but I am going to buy the compact also

best thing I can tell you is like the others said go to a Archery Pro shop Try every bow you can in your price range don't worry about the brand name to much all the top name brand manufacturers make good quality bows to me it comes down to comfort & smooth draw I have had Martin, Hoyt & now a Mathews. I don't care what name is on it. if the bow does not feel good to you you will never have confidence in your shooting. I would NOT buy a bow online without trying that model out first So if a bow shop won't let you try it go somewhere else. Any good bow shop will take the time to set them up for you to try

Wow maybe a first you all got more there then we did in NH had about an inch overnight but was raining at 3:00AM most is gone now

wow at least you will know where his sheds will be

Well I know this was an old thread but he was killed 300 yards from my treestand which I decided not to hunt that day hunter said he came from the area of my stand I was a little bummed but that is hunting did manage to see him with my bow earlier in the week with no shot. & saw him after the kill as I was not far from him looked like he was heading down hill Rack was not as big & had little muscle tone but still dressed at 186#'s

Not saying it is real or not but as for the ATV it looks like my Honda rancher which is a straight axle not independent suspension so the axle would stay straight also looks like the ATV is sagging in the rear I can say if I shot a bear like that I would wait till rigamortis set in before I went looking for it

Nice looking Buck I see he likes WGI cams as much as I do LOL

Dang aint nothing wrong with that Buck CONGRATS!!!!

Well I am with the Rage Lovers 2 Blade Not a fan of the 3 Blade. I can't say good or bad about the Reapers as I have never used them because I love my Rage if Quality drops off for some reason I may switch but as for now I am sticking with what works for me FYI From Rage Counterfeit Rage Products WarningTo our loyal Rage® hunters and consumers – unfortunately, it has come to our attention that recently there have been a significant number of counterfeit Rage® products offered for sale on web sites such as Amazon.com, Ebay.com and Alibaba.com.

Nice Buck Congrats

I do have a Mathews now but didn't like the idea of the switch bag hanging on the side of the riser like the Idea of the weight being where it should be going to order the Dragonfire soon as it was in the teens this AM & looks to continue will give my thoughts on it at the end of the season so I have had time to test it

I stalk hunt mostly bow is always in my hands & it is damn cold usually by the end of Oct. here & our season goes to Mid Dec

saw these in a bowshop in shortsville NY has anyone here used one any thoughts on them?

exactly what we saw last week out there in 8N

I used one for a long time switched to a Qad rest only because I was changing out the biscuit so much 2x a year shoot everyday & try for 365 days a year Nothing wrong with them

well hate to say this I have the best excuse yet I am 110# soaking wet I drive a Pontiac Grand Prix I shoot the little ones because I can drag them easier, they will fit in my Trunk & they taste the best I am going to hunt what I want how i want Legally & nobody is going to tell me different this thread is getting old funny but old so my sign on this thread is GONE HUNTING

Steve I agree It rubs me the wrong way to but you can not reason with people like this If I saw it I would probably let them leave & take the rest butcher it myself & donate it

Boy I may get smashed here but I consider myself a meat hunter #1 goal for me is putting Venison in the freezer & on the table I don't care about points, Boone & crocket, Pope & young, age I determine what I will take from hunt to hunt personally I draw the line on spots & milk moustaches I do use every bit of the deer I can Liver is one I give away per pound venison is expensive (gear licenses ect...) we all have different ways of hunting & different goals I put no hunter down for the way they hunt as long as legal means were taken what they do with the animal afterwards is their business whether I like it or agree with it Ethics are at the top of my list but we have to face the fact that not all people are ethical

you guys are killing me no snow here in NH Noon Tommorow can't get here fast enough then an 8 hr drive any snow in western NY probably would be gone by Sat anyway

Agree

Did the Arrow smell foul?

My guess woud be porcupines

Happy Belated Birthday WNY Bowhunter

Never used them myself but there are a few around here that do use them some get deer some don't def. don't think it would hurt using them

Sweet looking Bull Congrats
