Helms Deep was the location of a MAJOR battle in LOTR, no Arwen wasn’t there, but there were Men, Elves, a Dwarf, Orks, Ents, and I am willing to bet the Aussie knows where they filmed it. 🙂

in reply to: Arrow Weight & Paradox? #22912

Wondering the same, thinking of making heavier arrows, but if I make them thicker I change the spine, different wood same problem…. Since I’m shooting a 24″ arrow, its god awful stiff anyway.

Two unfilled tags here too, but no rain. We keep getting what they call Wintery Mix. Which amounts to noisy snow. At least if I manage to hit something, I can track it, as long as it stays in the shade (snow is gone where the sun shines). Good thing about the noisy snow is that I can learn a lot about where they hang out, between the times I sit shivering on stand. Oh, and if I’m shivering, I’m not sweating, so I don’t smell. 😀

Using ash right now, and it is working better than the red oak I was using. Hickory sounds interesting, there is a lot of hickory where I hunt.

I would really like to try Elm. I still remember trying to split elm for firewood as a teen. That was before hydraulics, and chain saws. We never did split most of it, and never did get a couple wedges out.

Don’t know where I was told to follow a river downstream, maybe it is some instinct.:D

in reply to: GPS Suggestions #12930

Actually I took the hunter safety course in Upstate New York… in 1964 (same year the Beatles arrived). They said nothing about getting lost. I was too smart to get lost anyway (although I have a little brother I still worry about). The main issues were: 1. DO NOT SHOOT PEOPLE. 2. DO NOT SHOOT COWS. After they told us that we shot our .22s at targets, got the certificate, and went home. When I was married my wife threw away the certificate. A year ago I needed the certificate to get a hunting license, so I called the town hall, and someone I didn’t remember told me she missed me, and sent the certificate to me.
