Great Pics – which of the 6 subspecies of CA Mule Deer do you have there ?

Scout

Cyberscout, it’s what the state big game club “California Bowman Hunters”, calls a ” pacific hybrid ” the boundary’s are basically from Monterrey south down to Mexico west of the 5 fwy.

They are closer to a Black-tail, small little bucks, most only being a fork n horn. CBH recognizes 3 kinds of deer here, and has divided up the state into 3 species areas ,black-tail along the cost west of the 5 fwy north to Oregon, east of the 5 Fwy are mule deer

Back to the topic, it was amazing that the dog could run to the guy, no matter what he did, I am a firm believer you can not fool there nose…. ether they smell you or they don’t.

Because I do most of my hunting on the ground, I just play the wind, each of us have our home area we get to hunt, and we need to think about the wind and hunt accordingly.

When I do hunt a tree stand I also pay close attention to the wind, the buck and coyote where shot out of a tree and the coyote came from behind me with the wind going right over him, and yes, I was smoking a cigar, actually there was 2 of them but I missed the other one.

For me it’s about not getting smelled, sure you can try and reduce your odor….. but I don’t think you can eliminate it.

It’s easier just to hunt into the wind, if all you do is tree-stand hunt, that’s another story, as you keep going to the same spot and there is a high probability they are going to smell you.

I know what you mean, it’s always just the little one’s…..:D

You can see the cigar in my left hand.

I have done decades of vary scientific experiments in an extremely controlled environment feild testing………..my conclusions are………. animals CAN-NOT smell you if your down wind.

Some lures catch fish…… others catch fisherman.

So, in the end, it was only a legend, like the Yeti & Bigfoot, brief sightings, yet no proof 😯

I look forward to the next sighting of Kong & Godzilla

Steve, I agree with Dave ” No Hammering here ” but we will tease you….ha ha ha lol just being funny.

First, does the same thing happen to your bare shaft?

I shot a 3D with no fletching, you do not need feathers with a tuned arrow and field points, but any bad form will show up.

You only need feathers to guide broadheads and Troy Breeding, only after 20 yards …..lol (He can shoot a broadhead with no feathers) which is imposable, yet he did it.

My guess is your tune it not there yet, your larger feathers are only masking something else.

Troy is the ” Tune Master ” maybe he will chime in

Great job Troy, I think there is a boatload of usable information contained here.

Oh, sorry forgot that, just the regular 40 grains, I have not tried the brass ones.

If I want more weight up front, I ad a internal footing or a machine screw.
