With the warm January were having the elk never showed up in the numbers like they should have not an excuse but wiered its +9c here today should be at least -20c.
Those are all wood ducks......

I hear ya on the scope. I shot the other week to find out I wasnt even on paper at 100yrds!!! 30 clicks left and 30 clicks down we were back on +-1" @ 200yrds. I still think someone screwed with my rifle for it to be off that much w/o dropping it....

Look into DNZ(dead nutz) mounts. Its a one-peice aluminum base and I and others have been very pleased with em......

Well done on the Woodies, people that dont hunt them or see them fly have no idea what an accomplishment a bag like that is. They are FAST, squirrely and hard to hit. There is a pile of them that fly over me every morning in a stand on our gas line and I need to have a shoot one day. We have a swamp they roost in and they come over LOW out of that swamp. I keep saying Im going to and never do.

Default Hoyt Charger

Didn't see a Hoyt bow mentioned in the thread. My son's been shooting one of these and is trying to talk me into going in with him on it. I've been thinking about doing some bow shooting and out here in Oregon, the bow season is way longer than rifle season. Anyone have any experience with a Hoyt Charger?

Three years ago I was looking at the Charger and the Spyder (aluminum riser) and I was much more impressed with the Spyder. It was smoother and quieter at the time. Over the past 5 years most of my hunting buddies have made the switch over to Hoyt because of the quality of the product.

I was lucky enough to be demolishing a house at the time and was able to salvage enough scrap brass & copper to pay for the bow.
