jasonsamko,
My point and shoot is an sx110. I’ve been seriously thinking about updating to the sx160. It’s too bad they don’t shoot in RAW mode.
in reply to: Field Photos #39493For the bulk of my photos I use a Canon 60D digital SLR. For the rest, I have a small Canon digital point and shoot.
in reply to: The 2013 Season Bulletin Board #22309Nice job!!!
in reply to: Acute target panic… How to cure? #10025The most important thing I learned about TP is that there is no universal solution. What works for one person may not work for another. Try everything you can, and give each an honest effort. If it doesn’t work, move on to the next. Eventually something should get you out the other side.
in reply to: Judging Distances #56312What an excellent topic. Thanks for posting it.
in reply to: Material for arrow rest? #55067They’re called brush restd. Black Widow sold them a few years ago. Check their web site. They may still have them in stock.
in reply to: Limb Twist #52099Excellent news
in reply to: Backpack Seat #42077If all else fails, check out companies that sell target archery equipment. I know I’ve seen several backpack/stool combinations at larger target events.
in reply to: The 2013 Season Bulletin Board #42076Per Ben’s request.
10/05/2013, Wisconsin. Five yards from the base of my tree, quartering away. Both lungs and the heart, arrow stuck in the dirt. About a 55-yard recovery. Blaze orange was required due to the youth firearm season.
in reply to: No place like home #40244What a nice deer! Congrats. I’ll bet there’s a taxidermist somewhere who just got some work.

in reply to: Canting the bow #23157As a general rule, I do not shoot with a canted bow. Every once in a great while I take a few practice shots that way just to reinforce that I can do it, but I can probably count those shots every year on both hands. In almost 30 years of bowhunting I can’t remember a single time I needed to cant my bow to kill an animal, and that includes both tree stands and ground hunting. On the other hand, I can recall numerous animals that stopped behind my tree, requiring a vertically-held bow in order to take them.
In the end it’s all about what style of shooting works best for the individual. Some people enjoy a hunched, twisted, bent over, heavily canted bow style of archery. I find my best success implementing more classic archery form. Someone else may find a middle ground approach is most effective for them.
in reply to: Concave broadhead sharpening #17460When I shot Deltas the first thing I would do is lay a file flat on a bench and draw those heads back along it until the edges were straight. It only took a minutes or two per head.
in reply to: Binoc recommendation #15304I just picked up a pair of Vortex Diamondback 8×28 binoculars at Cabela’s the other day for $139.00. I’m very impressed. They’re compact, rugged, brighter than my Alpen 10x42s, tack sharp, and have a smooth focus. To top it off, they fit nicely in the breast pocket of my hunting jacket.
