    Drop Away Rests

    Hey all, I was jsut wondering how many of you use these rests? I have been having horrible trouble tuning my bow. Last fall, I even tried changin my split limbs out for a solid limb. It helped some, but still not shooting bullet holes. Doesnt matter too much, until I try to tune my...

    Slate Calls

    Hey DKO I also would be very interested in one of your friends calls. Can you get us pricing info and also contact information? I would really appreaciate it. I personally use a Quaker boy triple threat the most, it has some great sounding qualities, but i am always looking for new turkey...

    Turkey Slam?

    Hey 1 pointer... I killed my first turkey last year here in Utah. He was a Rio Grande. That hunt was one of the greatest things I've ever tried, i hope you get the chance soon. The turkey population here in Utah is booming, and the state tells us that they expect to be able to sell tags over...

    Spring turkey....

    Last year was the first I've hunted Gobblers. Utah has a draw system for turkeys, so I'll cross my fingers. If I dont draw I might head to CO and hunt there. Otherwise I'll hunt the local canyons with my camera. Todd

    More Opinions please.......

    Well put Miss Muley. I can understand where you are coming from. I guess it all just boils down to the fact that each of us have our own ideas of trophies, and that is a good thing. I just hope that we as a community dont get so wrapped up in judging ourselves that we allow outside groups to...

    More Opinions please.......

    DS and MD4Me I still disagree with some of your points. All I am saying is that you cant lump all guided hunters into the same group. I agree that there are some "shooters" but there are also alot of "hunters" that use our services. You two still have yet to answer my question. Have either...

    More Opinions please.......

    I think that for the most part I agree with you DS. There are alot of "shooters" that travel the globe shooting, not hunting. I will say however that "guided hunts" are often just that; hunts. I guide deer and elk hunts on a 50,000 acre ranch in NE Utah. The terrain ranges from dry juniper...

    Hunting Gemsbok

    I have seen pics of Gemsbok here and on a couple of other sites. I was wondering if some of you experienced exotic hunters can tell me more about hunting them. I have read some about a Missle range in NM. Is this the only opprotunity, or are there other places, ranches? Can Non-res apply, point...

    Opinions please.......

    Jigmaker, I dont think you can put a yard mark on unethical shots. The buck that I killed last year was at 58 yards, and the animal only went about 20 yards before expiring. I would feel comfortable with any shot out to about 70 yards with my bow. I would not suggest this shot to most...

    Huge whitetail, funny story

    WOW! i have gotta quit showing my wife all the pics you guys put on here. She is starting to ask where all my cool animals are and why I spend soooooo much time hunting only to come home with my small animals. Great deer, I can only imagine what that guy had running through his mind when he...

    Bighorns

    I think that I have decided that I would like my first "once in a lifetime" animal to be a sheep. Really would like to begin with either a Rocky mtn or desert ram first. I will start appling for desert here in Ut this year. What info can you guys give me about drawing sheep in other states...

    Another Antler Question

    Since we have been talking about mass and width of muleys on other threads I thought I'd ask how you all felt about things like drop tines, kickers, cheaters, clubs, etc. I prefer a nice typical buck myself, but some guys love those other points. However, I am still kicking myself in the butt...
