If you are pushing 300ft/sec with 369grains with only a 24" draw, that seems really impressive to me. I would have said more like 270ish but these bows do amazing things these days. In terms of kinetic energy at 300ft/sec and 369gr you are at 73ft pounds then and plenty to push a fixed blade through out to 50 to even 60 no problem in my opinion. If that 300 comes down to 270 let's say, that drops your Ki to 60ftlbs and I would say 40-50 is a long enough shot then.

Interested in the whole lot. How much for all? Josh 480-369-4923

Only way to tell a snakes age is kill it and cut it in half and count the rings.. Or just kill it and walk away. Sorry snake lovers!

I shoot the 165 spire points. Shoots lights out and has performed well on everything from Buffalo to Bear to Elk to Coues.

Weatherby ammo prices came down a ton in recent years (2-3 years ago). I used to pay close to 80 and the last box I bought I think was 40-45. Creeping back up now of course because everyone can take advantage of consumer buying habits these days...

That's really cool. Would be fun to check that out. My bloodiest would probably have to be: Rem SP10 - 10ga. Lots of fur (coyotes and foxes) and feathers (turkey, Geese, Ducks and even the occasional quail that was on the way back from jumping a tank) Weatherby alaskan 300wby - (7-8 coues, 3 eastern wt, 1 bear, 3 elk (none of mine - I only archery elk), 1 buffalo (not mine) Probably that Rem 541T - took it on a p-dog shoot in NW Co and shot 2 bricks through it (along with a few hundred 22-250 rounds). 3 days and only stopped shooting to eat and clean/rotate guns. Never seen so many targets.

I've got a 541T HB that will out shoot it my MR (with me me shooting them both that is), but I have never really dialed in different loads for each.. But that 541 shoots amazing with everything I have ever put down it. I can't imagine how accurate those true target guns really are.

I have one exactly like it! Lights out shooter!

That is him enjoying his last breath of daylight air while at a tank.. getting ready to go completely nocturnal for the Oct hunts.

Thanks for sharing. I'm glad they called out the TV show part.. in many of those shows there is either wasted game meat (stiff whole animal photo shoot the next morning with good light, or something fishy about the shot and all of a sudden the animal is dead or in camp and of course all the reacted garbage. All about the horns for some of those jack wagons.

Did SC open for bear? I heard it did for a few days?

Big Bo, but it will cost you...

Sounds Like a successful hunt to me! Good luck next to around.

Good luck to you and nephew. I made a poor assumption this was a do or die buck for a kid and covering the hills with eyes until someone sees him so the harvest can happen vs the hunt. All good and good luck! -

I guess I'd be willing for my kid to lower his standards and for us to find another deer before I called in the village. In fact have many times but that's just me. And as you said to each his own. -
Yup and if you miss by 2 or 3 it's even worse.. next years dead head...
-
was into it until we started blasting at 750 and then lecture on how to set up at 750 after missing. Ah just another potential dead head out there to pick up if he blasted a leg off or something instead of missed completely. No worries.

I would have had to turn into a rock chucker at some point. Not sure if that would have been better or worse, but only thing that kept going through my mind.

I like you didn't want a real aggressive light bar so did two things. 4" rock lights that installed with literally one hole in the bracket that holds the radiator. But I still couldn't stand those yellow freaking headlights and bought the JDM LED replacements. Super easy installation and just as white and pure as light can get. I'm really happy with both.

Oh and it is called the Timberwolf.

It's a great homer bucket gun!
