After getting advice from folks, and doing some more research, I’m thinking the 190 gr Meathead may be the way to go.

With a 75 gr adapter I’ll have 25 more grains up front over my current set up, so I may need to shorten my arrows a hair…especially if I go with 100 gr adapters. Or maybe not….guess I won’t know til I fling a few.

I’ve done a number of backpacking/fishing trips up into the Winds from the Pinedale side. Have rarely seen other people and have had some great fishing. No big fish, but lots of them……and phenomenal scenery.

I had several field sites in the Bighorns. The Tongue River can produce some fish, and there are some lakes that hold lots of fish. Lot of critters in the Bighorns…..I looked into some areas where non-res could hunt more easily but I don’t remember what units they were. I’ve always wanted to bowhunt elk in the Bighorns.

Let me look at some maps of some of those lakes, etc. and I can let you know.

Alex, I really like that wood on the limbs. I’m intrigued by these short bows.

Righty-o, Bunyan. Don’t chunk the legs and thighs! Cook them down and make a great turkey salad, or turkey pot pie……or cook em down, shred the meat, cook rice in the broth, and then add the meat……

Wyo, I have a Lynch too, good calls! That box is a Pinhoti call…..made by a good friend of mine in Alabama.

Thanks for the kind words, fellas.:D

I pored over ‘Better on a Rising Tide’ last week before sending to a friend. That book is my annual pre-Spring read.

Great book. Intelligently written, with a more personal approach to understanding animal behavior.

You got it. I can’t wait to be walking through springtime looking for gobblers.

Great photos, pal! Love the one of the bow on the peak.

Broadhead, I have also really been enjoying your photos. Would love to see some of the paintings!

in reply to: Interests #61330

Great thread! I have a pile of interests….so many that I’m only half-arsed at most all of em. I’m an ex-river guide who is now a field biologist working with longleaf pine ecosystems and endangered woodpeckers….so I’m in the woods daily! I love hunting of all types…most especially turkey hunting, and organic gardening, music, fishing, camping and canoeing, primitive skills, skinny dipping, IPAs and stouts, and old, lazy black labs named Sadie.:D
