Make sure you aim far enough back on a quartering away animal. A single lung hit can make for a tough recovery.

The cabelas pack offers a regular sized pack and an extra large pack. Would there be any advantages or disadvantages to either size?

Last year I bagged my first turkey via bow. I borrowed a blind from a buddy. This year I would like to purchase my own blind. Which do you recommend? Assuming that most of you will recommend the Double Bull. Would you recommend the T2 or the T5 and why? Consider things such as price...

at least he won't be looking at a scumbag like Moss. That's what stuffedpepper has to look forward for another week.

Shredder, I'm interested in your tactics. Do you use a road kill deer to bait them at night or how do you set up?

My whitetail adventures for 2004 are complete and I am now looking forward to the next few months and learning the areas that I hunt so I can better predict buck movement during the rut due to terrain features, bedding areas, and feeding areas. I feel pretty confident in being able to locate...

We've got the same issues going on over here in South Dakota, mainly west of the Missouri river. Landowners and outfitters want to to be given a certain number of tags of which they can give to anybody they want. I believe they are doing a pilot program of that this year in Harding County. If...

I am contemplating using a Lone Wolf Set up next year with the idea of hanging 4 primary stands and using the lone wolf to mobilize myself. I haven't seen it done yet so I am curious to know how long it takes you to get set up b4 you hunt and how long it takes to take down. I will be setting...

Great buck muddy. Another great Iowa Buck. I hope he is going on the wall.

This morning I arrowed a nice wide 4X4. I shot him right at sun up. I had 20 yard shot with the animal slightly quartering away. At the time of the shot I was confident I had made a good hit in the vitals. I gave the animal 30 minutes to expire but the suspense was killing me. I got out of...

I will be spending the 5th-8th in the woods. I am planning on some all day sits. Do you think it would be beneficial to use doe in heat urine yet or not?

I am a little surprised by the chewing and smoking on stand. Don't you guys worry about the scent of Copenhagen being spread. They have to be able to smell that.

Tomorrows forecast here is predicting some 25-30 mph winds. How much does heavy wind effect deer movement. Is it even worth the effort?

same situation over here in SD. Only 25% of the corn has been harvested and today there is a high of 75. Pretty frustrating.

I am planning on making a great effort to spend the entire day in a stand for the prime time of the pre-rut. For those of you who have done this in the past, when should a guy start spending all day in stand?

I am planning on trying some all day sits this year. The only part of my body that gets really cold are my feet. I was thinking about trying some electric socks this year. Has anyone ever tried them. What boots do you guys reccommend. I want something that I can still walk/hike decent in...

I am going antelope hunting this weekend and am planning on butchering the goats due to warm climate. I have never quartered an animal before. I believe I have it figured out until I get to the hind quarters. Is there any way I can take the hind quarters without sawing through the bones?

Just out of curiousity, how many of you hunt over decoys. And if you do, when do you hunt over them the most pre-rut during the chase phase, or during the actual breeding phase. I have used one sparingly the past two seasons. I have had several does come into the decoy just to check it out. I...

My hunting partner and I recently set a few stands. One of the areas is dominated by huge cottonwood trees that lack cover and are pretty large in diameter. We tried to get as high as possible but had some difficulty in completing the process. I was wondering if anybody has any helpful tricks...

I would really like to get into using trail cameras as a scouting tool. I am on operating with limited funds. I was wondering what your opinions are on the Stealth MC1-D Scouting Cameras. It looks as though this is a step up from the original stealths with a 90 foot range for the flash versus...
