WY Youth Antelope
Thanks for the info. She is 11 and she turns 12 in March. That makes sense as to why points were not there. I thought I had missed the application time. -

WY Youth Antelope
I have antelope hunted a bunch of times in NE with archery tags. You see piles of animals and it is really easy to get within 150 yards of them and dam near impossible to get under 70. I want to take my daughter out with a rifle. I have 3 Points and she doesn't have any. I am really... -

After football season hunts?
This was my last year coaching football. Both boys will be playing school ball next fall. I am going to try to do an elk hunt next year but it may not happen until 2021. I am thinking of taking my dad to NE for mule deer rifle on a friends farm.- maxx

Ruger American
I won a 450 bushmaster last year at our wildgame feed we do. I put on the Leupold Freedom 450 scope. Here are my first shots after it was dialed in at 100 yards, that is two shots. The gun is a shooter. -

Getting Your Kids Started
I started both boys out with duck hunts during the early season. It was more of a walk than anything. Once they wanted to go then we left. They both started hunting deer at 7 and they both killed their first deer that year. They have been hooked since. My daughters first hunt was when she...- maxx

Two shooters/hunters and one deer
Paper Rock Scissor. I am guessing states are different. It also depends on the shot. If you gut shoot it and another hunter shoots it I would say its up to him. If you drill it in the lungs and it runs 100 yards over to another guy and he puts a bullet in it to finish it I would argue... -

Great Week in Iowa!
Two days two great Iowa bucks. 3 Years ago he shot his first buck a really great 12 point. A few days later I killed my biggest buck to date that I referenced above. This time he bested me a day later. Pretty big accomplishment for a 14 year old specially with a bow. My 12 year old is... -

Great Week in Iowa!
We got him packed out and headed home. It was 13F that night he was good and cooled down. We left him in the garage, got something to eat, rested up and headed back out around 1:30. We were back in the timber on our stands around 2:00. My 12 year old was sitting by himself and I was with... -

Great Week in Iowa!
I always save 4-6 days of vacation for hunting the rut in Iowa. I took my first day last Wednesday. I sat the entire day. I ended up switching stands 3 different times because of the wind. The only break I took was for 45 minute to eat lunch. While I was at my second stand I got pictures... -

Daughter Iowa Archery
Pretty freaking awesome love to see it. I am just loving hunting with my kids. There is never a dull moment, specially when my 9 year old daughter is with me. Those straps are ridiculous. They look huge. -

Right Handed but Left Eye Dominant
My oldest boy is this way, right handed left eye dominate. I switched him instantly at 5 years old when I saw him trying to shoot right hand with his left eye. His first bow was left handed and he never knew any different and he has always been a pretty good shot. After a few months of...- maxx

Leopoldo CDS
There are multiples muzzy scopes out there with BDS reticles built in based on 100 grains of powder and 250 grain bullets. I get the dials if you are going to push out past 300 yards but under that just get one of the BDS scopes. They seem to work well. -

Fall 2019 Iowa Deer and Turkey
It’s a private lake so that is there rules. If you shoot 4 deer one year you are good for the next. I only got three last year. Missed the 4th judge the range wrong!- maxx
