      Yeah there’s a lot of people I won’t hunt with because of the same kind of issues you’re seeing. It’s very unfortunate. Kinda scary. But it’s there. The gun hunters brag of super long range shots. I’ve met enough bowhunters, those with wheels and those without, that wouldn’t even hesitate to try for a 70 yard shot. Which at that distance I believe they could hit the animal but making an accurate shot and all the things that can happen in 70 yards…

        Roughed grouse in Oregon are kinda dumb. Most guys shoot them at 15 yards after a skidding stop on a logging road…. I think you could kill them with rocks if you could throw straight. They will scoot to heavy cover if you spook them. But I think they sit still and just let you pass most of the time. Some of the cover they hang out in is super thick. A lot of the time it’s hunting the transitions and catching them in the open. Sometimes they are few and far between but you can find honey holes out here.

          Yeah it’s a more get it done kind of thing. Matter of fact I’m going to encourage them to call the state and have the pros come do it. Because if the situation is how I’ve been led to believe then there is a real threat there nor only to livestock but the folks as well.

          I was kind of planning to take a rifle. Theres hunting and then there’s just doing what needs to be done. Again the pros would be the better choice here.

          I’ve been thinking about it the last couple of days and wish they would call the state. It would save me a trip out there that won’t result in anything unless I’m plumb lucky. But I made the commitment so off I go.

          Anyway thank you all for your thoughts and humor.

            Interesting video. Makes one ponder clear cutting as well. It also makes a person consider what a better way would be for logging and forest management?

                Naw they strip it until it’s just a big brown piece of dirt. They plant trees but it takes years to recover anything.

                  in reply to: cover your fletchings? #64050

                  Thanks for the input. Thank you Smithhammer for the offer. I’m probably just going to make a cover. I ended up getting bright orange fletchings because I thought I would like a Safari Tuff quiver but after playing with it I’m probably only going to use it in really rainy weather, which happens often enough in Oregon. So I ordered a bow quiver and now my bright orange fletchings are ecposed. So I’m thinking about making a fletching cover to put over all but one of my arrows. My next round of fletchings will be different I think. Thanks again.
