I use the ProChrono and have been very happy with it. It has be very accurate and consistent. When I bought it several years ago I looked at several good ones, but opted for this as it seemed to have very high reviews across multiple websites. I've seen several of the other one mentioned in use, and they also seem to be pretty good options. https://www.amazon.com/Competition-Electronics-ProChrono-Digital-Chronograph/dp/B0028MTBJ4 http://www.midwayusa.com/product/852429/competition-electronics-prochrono-digital-chronograph http://www.chuckhawks.com/pro-chrono.htm Regardless of which one you get, follow Lance's advice and be sure to shot at long distances to validate your velocity and the data you get from your ballistic program.

They got a list of everyone who drew tags and are putting them on jury duty. A new tactic of the PETA crowd. Two words, CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE! Under normal circumstances I'd say go. It's an interesting experience and a civic responsibility. But in your case, no chance in heck I'd show up for this. People no show all the time. Just don't ever contact them and give them proof you received the summons and you have nothing to worry about.

Awesome ram! I love that he doesn't let the antis scare him every time a hunting picture of him gets out and they call for a boycott. I genuinely believe that 99.99% of them lack the moral backbone to follow through, and call for boycotts as they stuff their faces with delicious subs. It is the Kanye/Kardashian principle, all attention is good attention, even if it appears bad on the surface.

I'm pretty certain they are the same thing. I think they recently changed they was they do their model numbers.

I tried a Caldwell's and returned it. The quality difference was substantial between Harris and Caldwell. When you headed to WY? If the dates work and don't coincide with my son's hunts, you can take them and try them, or just borrow for a weekend to try. I have a 9-13 HBLMS and a 13-27 HB25CS.

I've got a couple of different sizes. For WY antelope I would go with 13-1/2 to 27". My wife used it last year in WY and it was perfect with all the grass up there.

This is probably an over simplification, but in addition to minor cosmetic and functionality changes, with each generation the glass tends to get progressively clearer, brighter, etc. But this isn't always the case. Take for example the new 2016 EL line up. The glass didn't change. The only major change was the harness attachment point. Are there two particular generation you are looking at? You might check with the guys at Outdoorsmans or Dave (azelkhunter2). They have all been super helpful in educating me.

They're looking for RUM ammo. It is RUM ammo. Look at the top of the chart. Remington is using the chart to show what it would be compared to. It is their old marketing strategy for the power level ammo.

I have 7 rounds of the "Power Level 2" Scirocco 300 RUM ammo highlighted in red below. I'd be happy to trade it for some brass. Located in Queen Creek or Tempe.

There use to be consequences for walking around like a miserable d-bag. Anymore it is encourage. It would probably look something like this:

Does anyone know if outdoorsman makes one that fits Vortex 15s? Didn't see one on their website... I'm pretty sure it is the same one that fits the Swaro SLCs. I'm sure there is one. Give the Outdoorsman's a call.

Been meaning to look into some trekking poles for extra support with a bad knee and ankle. Any particular type you recommend?

Here is another one. No bait is better when fishing with kids than power bait. It is simple, effective, stays on the hook, and has a longer shelf life than worms. But I hate scooping it our with my finger because it is a pain to wipe/wash off at the lake. A friend tipped me off to cutting the top off of one of my kid's medicine syringes. Stick it in the powerbait, give it a couple twists, and pull it out. Smash your treble hook in, squirt it all out, and you are good to go. I unfortunately discovered you could already buy them this way before I could patent it. http://www.sportsmanswarehouse.com/sportsmans/Danielson-Dough-Bait-Mait/productDetail/Dough-Bait/prod9999005433/cat101115?ref=google?utm_source=google&utm_medium=shoppingfeeds&utm_term=417283&utm_campaign=GDF&gdffi=956ae87823e94c98adceb63322121bc0&gdfms=D88E360BCF7E4DFF9F574F2843C4E2CD&gclid=Cj0KEQjwuJu9BRDP_-HN9eXs1_UBEiQAlfW39oUu9JuAvEfD7WUq3VlOmifgqTEdoGwx58VqwvrHkwYaAs058P8HAQ

Even though 90% of the people in here are already familiar with it, I'm going to also throw the Outdoorsman's bino stud and bino/tripod mounting system. It was a total game changer for me when I discovered it several years ago. https://outdoorsmans.com/collections/tripod-accessories

The process of doing it yourself is pretty intimidating at first, but once you dive into it you will learn it really isn't that bad. You can find a plethora of great videos on youtube that will teach you everything you need to know step by step. You can probably also find the archived episode of Meat Eater where Steve taught step by step how to process a deer. You can get a really good grinder (I have a 3/4 hp LEM) and most of the supplies you will need for $400-500. You will get that money back in one season if you have to process more than one animal. Your quality and meat yield will go up and you won't have to wait on your meat. I started out just doing steaks, roasts, and burger. I've been doing it a few years now and have added jerky, various sausages, brats, etc to the mix. Planning to experiment and learn to do summer sausages this fall if my son if fortunate to get his cow elk and deer. Give it a try, worse case scenario is you miss cut some meat and end up with a little bit more burger than steaks and roasts. Also, I highly recommend a pair of cut resistant gloves, both for in the field and kitchen. I personally tend to get slicing pretty quick and with disposable knife blades being as sharp as they are, it doesn't take much to gash yourself pretty good. I'm terrible about slicing my hands up. These lightweight $10 gloves are fantastic and have definitely saved me from a few stitches. https://www.amazon.com/NoCry-Cut-Resistant-Gloves-Performance/dp/B00MXUHHGK/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1470601599&sr=1-1 Here are a couple of links to some past threads with tips, recipes, etc: http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/56953-sausage-fest-and-meat-grinder-review/?hl=sausage http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/41672-sweet-mesquite-coues-jerky-time/?hl=%2Bsweet+%2Bmesquite

I think basspro sold through a lot of stuff a week ago when they were doing their save your sales tax sale.

Kuiu appears to have been testing a new pattern. Might that be it? What I have read suggests they are phasing out Verde. http://www.gohunt.com/read/news/kuiu-changing-camo-patterns

If only this were 60-70 lbs. Great deal on a great bow.

My wife is fairly new to hunting but is 100% on board. She first drew a whitetail tag a couple of years ago. We had a fantastic time together even though she didn't get her deer. I'll let this video tell the story of her second hunt. She has enjoyed it more and more each time, but says her favorite part is just being alone together for days at a time without the distractions of life and a little break from the kids. My next little huntress is about to turn 8 but can't wait for it to be her turn!

Sold

Selling my Vortex Viper 15-45x65 straight spotting scope. It is in excellent like new condition. Has always been kept in the included neoprene case and there is not a mark or scratch to be found anywhere on the body or lenses. This is a great midsize scope for someone looking for a sub $1000 spotter. I'm selling because i'm ready to upgrade. The original box and materials included. Asking $500 Located in Queen Creek The pictures below are not actual pictures of my scope. I will take those and post this evening. But these pictures are identical to what you will get.

Really wish I could have made it. It is tough for me to get out to the west side on a week night. Come do one on the east side and I can guarantee you there will be at least one youth present. My son loves going with me to these things and is gung how to try bear hunting. Shame he has such a clueless dad.
