    Fair price for 2007 bowtech tribute?

    it killed elk deer and pigs and was a great bow but I jumped ship back to hoyt last year and have a new elite hunter coming this week. Awesome let off with lots of creep which I need. You can hold full draw forever. No regrets because technology just keeps getting better. Its too bad resale on bows isnt like guns where you can get most of your money back.

    Fair price for 2007 bowtech tribute?

    350 set up with a good string and cable. thats average ebay price. That's what mine sold for plus shipping.
  10. 2200 expandable to 3850 Bought for my wife and she will never wear it(long story). Want to trade for a good used rangefinder. Not an antique or $99 pos. Maybe a bushnell scout or truth arc or something. It has to read in black because I can't see red. Live in far west valley but will be at Ben avery area Sat am. Prefer not to ship. Pm with what you have. Also have a horn hunter pack in predator deception. Couple years old. never been bloodied and in great condition(wife never used this one either). Not sure of the model maybe you can tell from the pic. Would like to get $100 for this one.

    draw weight question

    certain bows have max turns you can take out safely and still shoot. Most bows perform the best at their max poundage...so they used to say. They now have them that have 40 plus pounds of draw weight adjustment so it all depends on the bow

    Two down plus a question

    Good call...and you got to keep your hunting privileges by doing so. Congrats on the kills btw.

    Daughters jr pig hunt

    Well after a long month of chasing pigs and deer with my wife and friends I was ready for yesterday. We had some pigs that were spookier than all get out that we wanted a little redemption on,,,so what better way than to have your daughter blast one with a .270 right? Having too many tests at school we had to wait 'til afternoon to head out. At our first glassing point we had cows everywhwere= no pigs. So we travel higher up this mountain of rock. I no sooner get "the boys" on the tripod and I spot a lone pig way out there. So eventually the rest show up eat a little and move onto a thicket that the wife can cover all angles from. My daughter and I load up what we need and off we drop off this mountain. \ that is about the angle of this rock pile. We get to the bottom and the wind is perfect, ground is quiet from rain the day before and we keep closing the distance. Wife lets me know they are feeding to the right of us so I get her set up on the tripod with a shooting v and they start to funnel thru. She doesn't shoot? Dads always look from your kids or wifes point of view. That extra foot is the difference of seeing and not. I pick out the next opening that she can shoot from( I think)...nope just tops of backs.Ok I got this figured out now..next clearing will be perfect...if they stop. Nope they all trotted right thru. Plan D... stay above with the wind in our favor and find a bigger clearing. Look look look..nothing. Woof! Gun up on tripod and Im looking. I can't see it! Next thing I know Cristal swings to the right and as soon as I barely see it...BOOM! That bore did a backflip and rolled 5 feet and took a dirt nap. After numerous blown stalks and string jumping in the archery hunt it felt good watching my girl roll that pig. Now did I mention my wife can"t drive my jeep. Yup back up / that steep @$$ rockpile to the jeep. After some pics we dragged it a couple hundred yards and loaded it up and here came the rain.Being the well prepared father i am my knives were at home. Don't make that oops very often. It did let me weigh the pig on the hoof. 61 pounds! She has beat me by 2 pounds after 3 pigs to my countless. Don't know if we can beat my wifes 69 pounds from last year but maybe one day. This rain is gonna suck today for all the juniors out hunting. easy to track if it quits. Good luck kids and parents....Toby Yeah she is planking with a javelina I love a kid with a sense of humor

    Fling and a miss!

    I had one chowing down on a cactus pad at 4o yards last week. No clue I was there...let it fly and that pig pulled a move right out of the Matrix. What a spooky herd of pigs this was. They didn't jump the string of my kids 270 yesterday.

    Venison Tamales

    Wife and I just made 21 dozen yesterday. I will try and get a recipe from her. I know she uses new mexico hot dried chiles...boils them for x amount of time..then blends them to a sauce...mixes it with whatever meat we kill. We use unprepared maza and add a ton of lard to it...no idea how much(she wings it). we whip the lard till its good and creamy...mix in the maza until you can drop a little piece of it in hot water and it floats right to the top....then go to work...we also put 3 green olives in each tamale we make.Adding store bought meat isnt required unless you don't have enuf game meat. This batch was javelina and deer. Or save the headache and buy some from a local family who makes them. I wouldn't sell mine for less than $20 a dozen for all the time and money invested in them..Hope yours turned out good.

    20c EARLY RIFLE INFO

    Hope you found one for your dad. This was the most frustrating 20c hunt I have ever had. Too hot.,full moon,too hot,half the unit posted no hunting,too hot,the rest of the hunters on the six huntable roads that get you anywhere,too hot and too hot. Not $ure why game and fi$h put $even hundred tag$ out for thi$ unit?

    20c EARLY RIFLE INFO

    I have 5 tags for each hunt in my family. There are lots of locked gates and no hunting signs. Where there is not is where you find everyone else crammed in the same area. Do your scouting and be first to your spot. After the first 2 days try and think outside of the box, which is hard when you don't know the unit. Find a spot with no road and hike in and your odds will be best. Good luck to you.

    Sight

    black gold ascent 5 pin. your 5th pin can go from 60 thru whatever long distance you are capable of chancing. I have friends who shoot 100 plus with this sight. if you have to have 7pins black gold has a few models and the nice thing is you can custom build your sight to what color,pin size and so on.
