    API Sticks: to cut or not?

    I have the API sticks. Right now I am leaving them full length. I have an old rifle sling around the ends and carry against my back which seems to work ok. I just cant bring my self to cut up $100 set of climbing sticks, maybe I'm a cheapskate. Anyway, question for everyone. The sticks stack...

    New Scouting Video Series (looking for ideas)

    Hi. I’m relatively new to hunting/scouting and basic woodsmanship. I’ve been watching Dave’s videos as well. He seems to pick hot spots in three steps. First, where is the food. Second, where is a good place for a deer to bed where he/she will feel safe and have access to food. Third, transition...

    Southern Workshop

    Hey Dave! I’ve been watching you 2018 scouting videos. They are super helpful as a new hunter. I would like to do your scouting seminar but SE Oklahoma is a little far for me.

    Pouches

    I received the small pouches. My ropes fit fine. A little tight but they work if you fold The ropes correctly.

    Pouches

    If they are too small, I will use one to hold my turkey call and the other maybe my tags and knife and I can leave the backpack at camp during turkey season.

    Pouches

    Suess Suess, thanks for posting your pouch purchase. I am in the market for pouches to put on my sit drag saddle for my ropes. I decided to go with two smaller bags from sportsman’s guide (also got my dad a cool Smith & Wesson hat for a Christmas). I bought these for $5.99 each. I was a...

    Pouches

    Sounds like it could do a linesman/tether and possibly my bullman ring of steps in one pouch. That would be perfect. Just stack them in the order they are needed when setting up.

    Pouches

    Thanks for the share. Those look pretty big. Do you think you could get both a linesman rope and the tree tether rope in one pouch?

    Florida Deer Hunting

    Sounds like a blast. Its the third time this hunt has been recommended so I will definitely go. I have never thrown a cast net in my life, you may have to teach me.

    Florida Deer Hunting

    Is it legal to conceal carry while bow hunting on public land in Florida? In Illinois its illegal to carry a firearm during bow season for deer/turkey while hunting. You can conceal carry during gun season though.

    Florida Deer Hunting

    I currently live in a south suburb of Chicago. I am sure Green Swamp sees the same kind of pressure that the public land within 100 miles of Chicago see's. You really have to get a long drive in before you find some low pressure public land for archery in illinois. I would assume the same thing...

    Florida Deer Hunting

    Green swamp looks to be a good spot to check out, not too far from the SW suburbs of Tampa where I plan on staying. Ocala national Forest looks like a good spot to scout as well. I plan on starting to scout as soon as I can.

    Florida Deer Hunting

    thanks for taking the time to provide me with some great advice. As a new hunter I don’t like to pass up taking a legal deer if I feel I can make an ethical shot, Especially with a bow. I appreciate everyone for taking the time to help me out with some much needed advice. I am a little blown...
