Yep he should not have taken that shot in the first place and to your other comment on my post I like hunting different places some times that was the point of that post or i would of ask where was the best place to buy land for hunting .

On my cell phone it says 130 yard kill shot am I missing something hard to tell on my cell phone Its still luck

That guy looks like a real scumbag no way are the cops going to buy a story of a accident with a bow lol

Luck it happens What's the big deal no trees no brush for arrow to deflect off and I don't no were you getting this 130 yard shot from because to me it looked like under 40 or less hard to tell

I'm 6'2 279 ib how do you think my groin is going to feel even if I fall even only 3 feet in that harNess or my ribs or any part of me that smacks that tree when u fall usually things happen when you least expect it . I gave that up when I got older . At least when your younger you recover faster from accidents like that. You don't think about it anyway . When you get older different story . Good luck and watch your self be safe really think about every move you make when your 20' up a tree . If you decide to use them .

Nope but for 5k I can built one for you probably lol

5A no better then places I know already But thanks anyway

What zone number you hunt in

What zone number you hunt in or is that secret to lol

Not really because unless you go on opening day or days your not really going to no and the weekends Go during the week they all look empty Iv been to pretty much everything from 3J and south of that except for long Island .

Hmm you know I really don't no if he had one on it happend about 4 years ago he was a cop you would think he knows better . Let's say you have a harness u survive the fall but cant get down dying from exposure a slow death is worse to me like being crucified. Alot of places you hunt don't have cell service and that's if you can get to your phone . Like I said when I was younger and thought I was going to live for ever I used them not anymore iv almost fallen off them by falling asleep on those things a few times

That's a new one it came out in 2013 I got my Weatherby 257 mag back in the 90s 26 nosler The high velocity of the cartridge has raised concerns about excessive barrel wear, potentially wearing down barrels at a rate faster than that of the similar .264 Winchester Magnum, which itself has a reputation for being a "barrel burner".[4] In 2015, Nosler introduced a 28 caliber version based on this cartridge called the .28 Nosler and then in 2016, Nosler introduced a 30 caliber version called the .30 Nosler.

Well I No A Guy who Died falling Using A Stand This Guy Been Hunting for over 30 years . And that's why I don't bother with them anymore I have taken and no plenty of people who have taken plenty of deer even big bucks from the ground . Obviously it not as easy but I would rather not be dead or mess up taking a chance with a stand something I use to do when I was younger. I gave up on them . Btw hanging from a harness probably is not going to feel to great either .

I shot one with the deer directly facing me one time at about 60 maybe 75 yards in the chest . And almost like this video the deer dropped there Alot of the meat got destroy my cousin said who butchered it for me .in fact when I bought the gun the guy in the store told me for close range On deer they destroy Alot of meat I was thinking of getting the 7mm or 300 Weatherby mag . But he said those are rediculus for deer under 100 yards to much meat damage AND the 257 shoots the flatist with less kick which usally means you will shoot better. lattly been just using 3 inch mag 12ga slugs in smoothbore shotgun with clamp on iron sites where I hunt you cant use rifle and you cant really see more then say 75 yards perfect for shotguning . But having gotten use to that set up I probably use it any place else in the state anyways unless I no I'm going to be hunting a open corn field or something or mountain top.

It was roy Weatherbys favorite cartridge that he designed he used it on cap Buffalo got a,kill with one shot just to prove a point . Nothing shoots as flat as this cartridge That you would want to shoot

If not for hunting humans would not be here what else do you need to say .

Don't really need to no exact spot just zone really like if I go to finger lakes region opening day is it crazy up there with hunters like in parts of southern zone for example. I should have wrote in zone maybe or county in general

I hunted in Chenango b4 last time I was up there was probably 12 years ago

I been hunting in places that only allow shotgun for deer lattly and I can tell you they do the job well even out to 100 with smoothbore If you want to no the best long range deer gun in my opinion it would be the 257 wethereby mag a super flat high speed flying bullet only bad thing getting ammo is a pain and expressive I can never find the stuff any more and have to order it pain in the ass

Trying to reinvent the wheel ? you should be cleaning you game meat before eating it who is eating lead? Only if you dont no how to prepare game . the people who comes up with this crap they obviously never actually butchered game before. You cut out the parts that have been damaged by ammo

I agree smooth bore remington like the 870 is a great gun for deer and other things it's probably should be one of the first guns anyone getting into hunting should get in fact that's all you really need in new york state

Some people don't care as much about max fps they care more about reliability in the field and weight . that's like saying everyone needs a 300 win mag to deer hunt over a 30-06 Or a 30 30 that's all I'm saying . Not everyone just looks at fps when buying a bow or crossbow if you know what I mean .

The definition is something no longer used outdated . Crossbows Recurves are still being used and they are getting better just like compounds are . Plus they are lighter less likely to break on you and easier to fix when they do . So no there not obsolete . Excalibur one of tye best crossbows only makes recurve crossbows for example and there are plenty of other brands that make them

There not obsolete even at 200 pounds a recurve crossbow will slice through a deer good enough how for into the dirt do you want your arrow to go ? I can show you videos of 40 pound recurve bows going right through a deer . Arrows kill by bleeding you don't need much power for that .
