    IRAP program: Drawn hunt for two weeks...where would you hunt?

    My buddy called Irap and said it was only one deer to be taken. He’s hunting in an outfitters land, so he has a chance at seeing some nice bucks but he can only shoot one doe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Freezer Preservation

    I just use zip lock bags too, but am probably going to switch to vacuum bags. I just think it will take more time but in the long run with be worth it to have a little more protection. I leave my silver skin on too to help add another barrier against freezer burn. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Getting your platform up the tree.

    I’ve also switched to my turkey vest this year. Saw it on the hunting public, it works really well for me, only complaint is lack of padding on my shoulders compared to my regular pack. It it’s nice being about to just leave the vest on and have on my body and not hanging on the tree. Sent...

    IRAP program: Drawn hunt for two weeks...where would you hunt?

    It’s gonna be hot first couple days of season here in Illinois. I’d look for for trails going from bedding to water. Most of our corn is dry already I’d be willing to be they will be visiting the water hole when it’s up in the 80’s. You get doe only? I didn’t apply didn’t have any close to where...

    Deer Processing Question - “Deep Burgundy” Dried Meat

    I cut my own but leave the dry on when I throw it in the freezer. I think of it as another layer of protection against frost bite. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Range Finder

    I use one of the halo ones that has angle compensation built in. Don’t know how much difference it makes but my shots are on target when I do my part. Cost me around 100 bucks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Traditional Bowhunters

    Just got mine this year. Should I go wooden shafts or carbon? Been looking at getting a 3 rivers test kit and trying some wooden shafts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Another win for AH/NT

    I went with the fixed one for just for less bulk. I used to step through my leg straps on my old kestrel and my arborist harness has a fixed bridge too so it’s never bothered me. It’s way nicer than having figure 8 knots and a carabiner I think. Aerohunter is great, last year when I ordered mine...

    Saka mini for aider

    I saw a post before about using a saka mini like a knaider but how are you guys doing this. I’ve got one for my arborist srt set up but do you just run a short piece of rope to your stick? I’ve tried making a rope step for my sticks but wasn’t a big fan. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Another win for AH/NT

    That’s awesome they did that. I like my flex but really liked the inside of my kestrel more. Still on the fence about which one I like more, really like the web bridge though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Public land etiquette

    That’s the only down fall I think with not having a ladder stand. In Illinois some public land you can leave a stand for all of season and others you have to drag in. One of my spots I hunted and scouted the next time I came back someone had put a tree stand two trees over from where I had been...

    Flex Order Questions - **UPDATED**

    Also agree on the webbing bridge, had the rope on my kestrel and evo but the webbing with the tri glide is way nicer. Not a big fan on the coating inside the flex though. Liked the kestrel better in that reguard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
