    Pin bones in trout

    in Fishing

    Posted

    Only keep a few fish a year. Stocker Browns  10-16” or so. Last time I filleted cutting behind just behind gills to tail. Then smoked thinking the pin bones would be easier to remove. Flexing fillets and bones would stick up. We’ll sort of. Despise getting a nice bite of fish to encounter a bone. As do I a nice bite of wild turkey and crunch a #5 pellet. All suggestions welcomed. Thanks in advance 


    If you filet it right you wont get any bones.

    Ways to Silence Your Bow

    I said the same thing but once I got mine I kicked myself for not doing it sooner. This was my fourth and hopefully my last. It is definitely a pleasure to shoot.:maninlove:


    Believe it or not i just bought the triax which has no noise or vibration whatsoever. But i like my bowtech more. Just wish it wasnt as noisy. As others have stated i will just get to tuning it.

    Strings and cams are 3yrs old.

    same here . Do you know your arrow weight or speed ? I always add weight to my arrows until they slow down to between 260-270. It doesnt take much weight usually ,if any . I shot my super light weight 3D arrows from my synergy and i swore something was broken ,it got so much louder.


    Good question I would have to shoot through chronograph but I shoot carbon express maxima blues 250. Pull 65lbs at 28.5” draw. The arrows do go fast. But how fast id have to see

    The biggest noise reduction i have witnessed was a heavier arrow , then of course monkey tails . Have you shot with and without the quiver to see how much noise comes from that  ?



    Actually i always shoot with my quiver off.

    Hey guys and gals. Just wondering what methods you have on reducing vibration or noise after the shot.

     

    I am shooting a bowtech prodigy with a 6in axion stabilizer and some hushpuk noise reducers i bought a few years ago at the Great American Outdoor Show.

     

    Im trying not to add too much weight to my bow so a longer stabilizer makes me a little hesitant.

     

    Id appreciate any ideas. Thanks in advance. -Anthony

    Thanks , that was fresh. I’ve since worked over some trees with it as well as taken some steel wool to it , to  knock down the shine .
    I’m going to do an antler mount with it . 
    Thats the only buck I’ve lost in bow , found it two years later .....
    Was embarrassed to,not find it and when I did wasn’t going to display , due to the circumstances .


    Wow two years later and no chew marks or breakage thats amazing. If you don’t mind me asking where did he die how far and what was the shot like?

    hunting permission

    in General Hunting

    Posted

    We use to have several places to hunt in the town of bedford where you need written permission to hunt and it was a way the scumbag cops that hunt would literally walk in the woods and ask for it and ruin your hunt if you were on a neighboring property and did not want you there. Anyway, most of landowners would not do it but one day the landowner who was probably a billionaire saw me getting harassed by bedford police literally ate this piece of shit for breakfast told him to get the F off his property or he would call his boss's and boss's , boss and have his job taken away.  I was never messed with in bedford again.
     


    I hunt bedford and have heard stories like this over and over again. So far ive been lucky i guess

    Luna's Tracking Journal 2017

    in Deer Hunting

    Posted

    The season has ended here in the north, so our tracking season is over. We ended up taking 71 tracks this year. Luna found 23 deer and Kunox found 7.  I'm glad everybody enjoyed the stories, I enjoy sharing them.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone! Good Lord willing, we'll do it again next season.


    Thank you for your hard work and dedication to such a generous service you provide. Thank you also for sharing your experiences. I look forward to this thread every year, and by far is one of my favorites. God bless

    I mainly bowhunt westchester but have a spot in fairfield county as well where baiting is allowed. I can assure you it is not as easy as it seems to shoot a deer over bait. If it were, the deer population wouldnt be so damn high over there. Deer condition themselves to come in the downwind of the downwind side and make circles before coming to the bait and/or come solely at night. I have found once the whites and reds drop, I have seen deer walk right by the bait and go to acorns.

    Im not saying I agree with NYS laws, but it is a law in NY and therefore we need to follow it. Baiting allows you to add a food that deer normally wouldnt have access too, and it does increase your odds. But its not a slam dunk home run.

    Dropping off my daughters buck head at buddies today. Going to try a pressure washer. He's heard great results to get the crap off of it



    Thats how i do euros. Scrape all the meat off and fur and then blast the skull with my pressure washer. Takes about 20 minutes tops and comes out just as good if not better

    The Dreaded Shoulder Shot

    in Deer Hunting

    Posted

    Hey guys. Im wondering whats your experiences with shooting a deer in the shoulder? Specifically the scapula.

     

    I shot a dandy this morning broadside 25 yards and the shot was a smidge high but double lung nonetheless. I would have put money down he was dead. He ran 50 yards with his tail tucked before I lost sight of him.

     

    I went to grab the arrow and to my shock I only had 5" of penetration. Im shooting a bowtech prodigy 65lbs carbon express blue streak with muzzy trocars. Im dumbfounded. The only explanation could be his front leg was sticking back hiding the vitals more than I thought. It just happened so fast I dont recall.

     

    My father and I gave the deer 2 hours and took up the trail hoping to get another shot off. He ran about 100 yards from the shot and bedded before we kicked him.

     

    Im sure he will live IMG_9954.JPGIMG_9957.JPGbut Im wondering what are peoples experiences with these situations? I have shot 2 does this year both through the scapula unintentionally and blew through it like nothing. Is a mature bucks scapula thicker?

     

    Anyways thanks in advance for advice/wisdom on this topic.
