    **SOLD** PSE Vendetta

    I do not believe tags show up on mobile devices. Bump for a nice bow.

    Help with Older PSE Vengeance Bow

    Sorry, had a few scotch's last night. I didn't even see the $500 listing. That's crazy. But the other one has been relisted over and over again. I think I went through 5 listings from the one I found first. Don't remember what components he has on there, but thought you could sell them to help offset the cost. Or talk to him and make an offer. Worst they can say is no. Everything I read last night on the vengeance was in reference to cracked limbs. AT is full of threads on them. Barnsdale is running over $150 for limbs now, so I think your best bet would be to just find a new bow. If your looking for a deal, I've snagged two good bows from Cabelas bargain cave for not much more.

    Google is your friend. There's a full bow on eBay right now. If limbs are good, that would be an option. Barnsdale Archery makes limbs for several bows, might be worth a call. If you're the original owner, contact PSE warranty dept and see if they will give you a discount on a new bow. Also, this thread is the 7th thing when you google this.

    Double buck taxidermy ??

    I actually had him do a euro on my coues and a shoulder mount on my bull. This was back in 2010, when he was still trying to get his business off the ground. Mounts came out nice, and work was done quick (6 months for my bull). He actually posted on here once or twice back then, but when rutnhard took off, he got in with that crowd, and the rest is history. I normally would side with a guy trying to raise a family, but not at the cost of stealing from your peers, more so with having no remorse for it. I hope all of you that have had bad dealings with Rick are able to recover your lost damages from him in small claims court.
  6. 30 lbs for everything except buffalo, which is still at 40 lbs.

    Anyone use one?

    I too hang my bow by the clip on my badlands bino pack.
  8. I agree with what several have posted. Practice at long range make shorter shots in the field that much easier. Time of flight would be your biggest worry, not penetration. Folks were killing stuff for many years with heavy arrows going slow (by today's standards). Look at some of the numbers for guys shooting trad gear and you will see 450-500gr arrows in the 150-180fps range killing stuff easily within short distances. I am sure your arrow is still going that fast at 80-100 yards. ToF would be your biggest enemy.

    Guns, Bow, and Misc for sale

    Are you looking for another van? If not, my wife has mentioned she's thinking of selling her old Accord. Hate to see folks have to sell gear, I'm sure she'd be willing to work something out.
  10. I won a receiver set last month that I am planning on using to build my wife's 3 gun rifle with. I had her take a look at their colors, and she likes the slate look of the NP3 coated receivers. Anyone on here have any experience with this type of coating? Does it just make it easier to clean? How is the wear on the coating after 20k rounds? Thanks.

    Given your fathers health you may wish to look into a champ permit for him.

    Point Guard

    I agree with GreyGhost. If everyone on the app had to surrender their tags then this would be a moot point. After all, (theoretically) the whole point of putting in as a group is to hunt as a group. If one person can't make it, then the others are out as well and they can all try again together next year. It might limit how many people put in as groups, but if you did, you'd be dang sure it was a true friend or a family member. As such, if they surrendered a tag, I'm sure it would be for a dang good reason (i.e. major medical or dream hunt out of state), in which case you'd likely be there with them anyways.

    Any chance we could get a better picture of the entire unit? Might help folks a bit more than your first photo.

    3 phase power and VFD's..who knows about them?

    Yeah, still got to build my shop though. From what I've researched so far, I'm decided to wait until I find a good deal on an overhead crane and then size my shop accordingly.

    3 phase power and VFD's..who knows about them?

    Nice. Been looking at mills and lathes myself for when I build my shop. I may have to pick your brain when the time gets nearer.

    Gun Safe

    Been comptemplating getting one myself. From what I've read I think I'd be better off just buying a metal box with a simple lock to keep kids out or building an entire room for what it would cost to get a true safe. I've definitely enjoyed reading this thread though.

    Rem 700 trigger

    Thanks for the offer to install. I've installed all of my Jewells so far. Picked up my first Timney last month for my 243 but haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. Am waiting to see how I like it. Also want to try one of the Calvin elites in my 308 when I get to that gun.
