Unfortunately, yeah. Des Moines has a a fair amount of speeding and no turn on red caneras. A construction zone on I-80 just outside Des Moines had a sign that said speed limit enforced by aircraft. Bunch of BS imo. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I've experimented quite a bit, expandables hybrids, fixed. Honestly I've had all different levels of blood trails; I think shot angle makes more of a difference on amount of blood more than anything. I've been shooting fixed lately for the simplicity and ability to resharpen the blades...

Hard no for me. I assume you'll find a similar sentiment from most the populous on here too. Seems innocent enough at first, but once something like that is approved then air bows are pitched and it's the same slippery slope tactic as straight wall rifles. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I second the arctic shield boot covers. Throw them in pack, throw them on when you get to your stand and throw some hand warmers in them. Best solution I have found hands down. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Be hard to top that season! Nice work to your nephew! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Nice work to the kiddo! Perseverance pays off, glad he could reconnect on a stud of a buck! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I don't think anybody is blaming the actual taxidermists for the price increase. I assumed their supply costs went up just like everything else did the last couple years. Not sure what their profit margin is, but it can't be that big. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Great work to dad and kiddo! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

My guy is about $900 and that's the going rate for quality it seems. Mounts have now reached "gun money" status. It's harder and harder to justify to myself and the wife as the price goes up. Anymore I won't mount something unless it has super cool character or hits my my top three. Sent from...

Great buck, awesome mass on him! Also, nobody on here gonna believe the blind squirrel finding a nut bit. [emoji38]. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I didn't analyze much of the data and there is a ton of it there, but crossbow usage went from around 30% to 51% from 2017/18 to 2021/22. So half of your hunters can now kill deer out to 60-70 yds or more. Personally, I'd have killed at least 3 more STUD bucks during that timeframe if I could...

1st season has been awful for me as well in central Iowa. Took a buddy and saw very few deer. I used to see 15-20 a day at least, we saw like 10 deer in 2 days of hunting. I think EHD contributed a little, but mostly the population seems lower. My public land cams confirm that as well. Sent...

Less recoil with flatter ballistics I guess, not enough to justify trading off a 450 to upgrade imo though. Sounds like the 400 legend will share the same bolt and mags as the 6.8 spc and it will use a standard upper receiver and allow double stack magazines, so that's a plus. Sent from my...

Nice work, that pic with you in your stand in the background is awesome! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Not sure if this has been posted or not, but Winchester released the 400 legend this year. Looks like all the normal companies will produce rifles for it by next year. Looks like a good intermediate between 350 legend and 450 bushmaster. https://www.outdoorlife.com/guns/winchester-400-legend/...
