    Slow start to 2023 season

    I have a thousand excuses as to why my season started out the way it did. I was deployed again until September and procrastination lead to me not getting any scouting done or having any cameras hung. This lead to me not seeing a deer from the stand from September 16th until October 28th. Not to...

    Pennsylvania has a season specifically dedicated to flintlocks. It runs about a month and always starts the day after Xmas. WV just recently started a primitive season that is 3 or 4 days long in the begining of January, and you can use a sidelock (flinter, or precession), recurve or long bow. I...

    Setup priorities

    Saddles are the "hype" "fad" these days. They'll fade away and everyone will just be using climbers and ladders like they've always done. . . . . . . . Atleast that's what I got told today. Switching to primarily a saddle has taught me a few things. First being that, saddles were what I was...

    Does anyone use micro diameter bolts?

    I've shot victory micro diameter arrows from my compound for a few years now. They are unbeatable, IMHO. I've never had one break while hunting. I've reused everyone that I've ever shot a deer with. I'm new to crossbows, and wanted to see if anyone has ever used the victory voodoo arrows...

    I got my Mini this year and have not hunted with it. I already have a vortex crossfire crossbow that I want to put on. I wanted to see who has the same setup, and how difficult it was to make the swap and sight in. I ask this, given the fact that the mount requires adjustment, as the reticle...
