Bear cubs will not often be very far from the mother bear. One cry from that cub, will bring her running fast! I hope that was the outcome of that awesome trail cam picture!!

Used to catch a bunch of panfish with a cane pole and bobber!
Never had anything put up the fight the young lady in the video had though!

I shoot right-handed and hold my release with my thumb to the left against my right-side jawbone. I press the trigger with my right index finger.
I see some archers that hold their hand upside down with their thumb on the bottom and the back of their hand against their cheek.
I cannot shoot a bow like that and wonder why some archers do. Is there some advantage to it?
I started out shooting trad bows, and shot with my fingers using a glove. After switching to a compound, I still shot with fingers for many years. When I went to a release in the 90's I learned just like you do. Right hand thumb up, palm facing in, anchored to my jaw, just below my ear. I've tried the other way with my palm facing out. But never could get comfortable with it.

The final Bill was never brought to the floor for a final vote. So no changes made again this year. Typical NYS BS! The founder of NYS Crossbow Coalition, Rick McDermott and his wife were recently, tragically killed in an automobile wreck. So not sure from this point who will carry the banner, to lobby for changes in Albany. I know some people behind the scenes in the CC. And they are still sorting through all the stuff that Rick was working on. But as of right now, no one has made the step to fill the huge void Rick left behind.

I'll bet that those old Bear razor heads have killed more deer than any other head ever manufactured and sold. I still have a bunch of them and every-so-often I pull them out and kill a deer with them. I also have a wad of aluminum shafting and assembled arrows that is so big a bundle that I cannot get both hands around them. They are still killing deer.
Yeah, I went through the stage of buying everything that came out in archery equipment and go-fasters. I have a wall full of bows that were quite high end at the time of purchase. Yes, I bought into the speed freak-ism.
Now, I have what I have, and am no longer trying to buy success. A little late in learning that lesson, but I have been taking deer with the same bow for the past 24 years. My Mathews MQ-32. And you know what?..... the deer these days are just as dead as the ones that I got back when I started with my recurves.......lol.
I too still have the MQ-32!! Bought mine in 2000, so 23 years old now. Still shoots just fine. I may have to take it out again this year!!

For bowhunting, I don't like any expandable broadhead. I stick to the fixed blade heads. Like my Muzzy MX4. Never have to worry if they will open up, or have blades pre-deploy. I stick with what works for me.

Perhaps a very good training program would help Dutch??? Having him learn that some of his current behaviors are unacceptable, could be very beneficial to him and your family. Just re-homing Dutch won't solve his underlying issues.
I really hope that this story has a happy ending.

Yeah because so called adults find it necessary to say childish shit. Glad you still fit that mold. Notice how peaceful it is around these parts now that only adults post on here anymore? Point Proven!!
Nice to see you still haven't changed either mayor.

There is absolutely no competition between sites. It is what it is. Everyone can come and go as they please. I visit both. Some great folks here and there. Have no issues with anyone. Well...............maybe Mayor McCheese. But some things will always remain the same.

Congratulations Al. I've had my LTDL since 1998. So much fun as you well know, working with a dog to achieve a goal. Your dog can be certified as well.

Dr. just let me know he called in a prescription. I'll start taking it tomorrow just to be safe. Thanks

As AL said, better safe than sorry my friend. The Dox is good insurance medicine. You have a good doctor.
My hunting partner has found ticks on him twice this winter! This mild winter will increase the tick population. Be vigilant out there checking for the nasty things. And using Permethrine helps alot.

I just leave the arrows from misses, in the trees as monuments to myself to make better shots!
Got a few monuments scattered over the farm. Most are really old. One or two more recent.
