    How did you cook venison today?

    Simple but delicious today. Ground venison (no fat added) seasoned to taste with sautéed bell peppers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Braised venison shank this weekend….amazing. I’m disappointed I’ve put hundreds of shanks in the grind pile previously. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Mystery Ranch Ewwwwwwww

    I’m not the OP but yes, they certainly are. I think the OP’s point was that the consolidation of large American companies (Bass Pro gobbled up Cabelas) is rarely good for the consumer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Question for the matthews folks.

    This What you’ll get for your old bow isn’t worth letting it go. Having a backup ready to go is a good strategy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Question for the matthews folks.

    It’s been a few year since I owned the Chill R but I’ve owned both. The Lift will be an upgrade in shoot-ability, hand shock, and quietness. If you’re happy with your Chill R maybe a new set of strings and cables will save you money! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Mystery Ranch Ewwwwwwww

    Ouch, You’re not wrong. But…when Dana Gleason started Mystery Ranch in 2000, it wasn’t really a small start up. He founded Dana Designs prior to Mystery Ranch and that company was already well known as the only company producing backpacks that could comfortably carry loads over 100 pounds...

    2024 Turkey Thread

    Working on getting my new bow dialed in for turkey season. After a few years of trying I finally got my eight year old his first bird last year. I think it’s ole dad’s turn again [emoji41]! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Spring Gobbler hunting with a bow.

    Decoy will help but it can be done without. Scattered trees will help when it comes time to draw, that’s the biggest thing to consider in an archery setup. Fixed blade heads work but a large mechanical definitely has advantages on turkeys. Their vitals are a very small target. I prefer a blind...

    How did you cook venison today?

    Reuben, one of my favorite venison meals. If you’re not corning venison you should, it’s easy and delicious.

    Not all heart shots are the same…

    You’re spot on, no two shots are the same. I center punched a Coues deer heart several years ago with a four blade fixed head (slick trick standard). The picture of the heart was really cool but if I didn’t see that buck go down ~75 yards from the impact, it would have been a tough blood...

    How did you cook venison today?

    I cooked corned venison hash this morning, definitely one of my favorites over the last few years. It’s excellent for breakfast but I’d eat it for dinner too! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone use pants with integrated knee pads?

    I have a few pair of the Sitka pants with integrated knee pads. It’s usually too cold to hunt in those where I whitetail hunt but I used the integrated knee pads in Hawaii occasionally. The only downside is wear/tear on the pant material on rough bark trees. There were a lot of slick bark trees...

    Swarovski EL 8.5 x 42

    Crazy how much they’ve increased in price over the years. I paid $1600 for a brand new pair of 8.5 EL’s in 2003. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
