Hey guys I am thinking bout mounting those shed that I found last year and have been thinking bout making a cast set of antlers from them and selling original. Last year at deer classic there was a guy there that reproduces antlers his name was antlers by Klaus. I've thought bout getting them...

Just wondering if any of anyone has heard of using beaver tails for ice fishing bait. A friend of mine told me they used it and had tons if luck with it. He said cut a lil chunk and put on ur lure and when u drop in water you can see the oils come off it. We have been trapping beaver so I'll...

I bought the spyder 30 last winter and I love it. I knew I wanted a new bow but had no clue on wht one I wanted. When I went to deer classic last year I shot all of the new bows that come out. And even shot some used ones at pro shops around me. The spyder 30 was by far my favorite one I shot...

Hey guys im thinking about buying a new stand and sticks and would like a hang on stand. One that is light easy to set up and comfortable for those all day sits. I have looked into both of these brands and i want one with a bigger platform. I am just wondering for the price of these 2 which...

I shoot the easton axis with rage hypodermic. These arrows r very tough only one I have broke is from a robin hood. As for these rages they r a huge improvement from past models. Both mine and my brothers Buck only ran less than 50 yds with full pass threw on both. And unlike the older models...

So after 4 years i finally got the deal done and shot my first archery buck! I shot my first doe last season. I have passed on multiple bucks that were 110 inches or smaller. Just felt like I wanted to wait for an older bigger buck so the past few years I have ate some tag sandwiches. Anyways...

You won't believe this but the buck I shot shotgun season couple of years ago... the one in my profile pic... when we were taking his hide off on his left side by his shoulder we picked out a bb gun pellet. It was stuck between hide and muscle. I don't think it affected him at all cuz his field...

I knew that bleating at him to make him stop would make him alert thats why I used my 35 yd mark and held low.. right at bottom of chest. I guess it wasnt enough and he jumped it more. Could have been me too but I didnt get nervous till i saw it fly over his back. Atleast it was a clean miss

Tonight i had a really good feeling about going out hunting since it was cold and we had snow on the ground. Good news i saw 6 different bucks and 4 does and heard one hell of a fight between 2 big bucks im guessing. Bad news about 20 mins after the fighting here comes one of the bucks that i...

Just got to my stand and not 5 mins after I get my bow up I hear grunting and fighting 100 yds from my stand in thick bedding area. I know someone hunts it but didn't see any trucks parked. Could have been deer if so they were really going at it and grunts were pretty loud. Anyways just had a...

We got snow yesterday and last night in northwest Iowa. Not much but enough to make ground white

Well this will be my first time hunting the rut with snow on the ground but with the colder weather I'm thinking the deer should be up and about. Plus its perfect wind for my stand and can't be in field working due to snow so y not go hunt. The night before the storm I saw 6 different bucks and...

Was wondering wht you guys do to ur bows before u go out if its gonna rain and after u come in. Or is there anything needed to be done to it. I waxed up the strings good before I came out. Wondering wht to do when I get in. Do the cams need oiled or idler wheels? ( I have a Hoyt spyder 30 if...

Also do u think it would be worth rattling

Tonight is only time I will have time to hunt till next week and was wondering if today would be worth sitting in stand. My stand location is on a ridge that has at least 8 scrapes in a 40 yd range and multiple rubs around. It is on a funnel point between the thick bedding timber and just a...

I recently got permission to hunt a big batch of timber during November and gonna go scout and hang stands today. Wht is the best spot in a big timber to hang stands for the rut? This will be first time i have had access to timber during the rut. I have looked at the maps and found a few pinch...

Had 3 doe come out when I let up but second part of storm hit and brought lightning and heavy rain. Luckily I made it to truck before it hit hard. Third time this year I've had to come in early cuz of storms....

Is anyone else gonna hunt tonight in the rain?? Im hoping that they will come out and feed when it let's up later. At least I'll be in my ground blind... just seeing if I'm stupid for going out or smart. Guess u can't kill em on the couch!!

Iowaboy I send you a pm about ur optima. Might be interested in it.

Looking at buying a muzzleloader and have been trying to do some research before buying. I first had thought about buying a Traditions but have heard cva is more accurate and a better gun. I had a chance of buying a used cva optima but it was an older model with out the qiuck release breach...
