    Treestand Maintenance and Safety

    Well it is that time of year when the stands come down, cleaned up, checked over , and put away until next summer. I have been a lone wolf sitter for many years currently have 6 alphas. By far the nicest stands I have ever owned. They are a little prices but I am worth it :D. If I had to...

    Last night sit

    I have to comment on the afternoon sit I had last night. It was the most eery sit I have ever been a part of. I can't explain it but it was a little unsettling. I sat from 1pm until dark dark. All I can tell you is that it was DEAD silent!!!!!! No blue jays, tweety birds, squirrels. No...

    The walk in

    Would like your opinion on this. You have a 600 yard walk to the stand, park the 4 wheeler, walk thru woods, base of a hill, mostly flat and a well defined semi clean 4 wheeler trail that is used very little during the year. Few rubs and scraps. Its not a heavily populated deer location but...

    Our Pets protection

    We just got a new puppy 3 weeks ago and I have to say she has brought a new light to our family. Our last dog died too soon and it was caused by issues surrounding Lyme disease. The thread about our habitat work clothes got me thinking about protecting our new puppy. Pulled a tick Sunday...

    Solo Hand Spreader

    I did a search and from the sounds of it, the Solo is the way to go???? I have finally given up on the green spreaders. Those things are junk and a waste of money so its time to upgrade. Sounds like a pretty good fathers day gift to me ;);) I have done the searching and from what I see the...

    New Hunting Clothing

    I am looking for a new bow hunting jacket. I spend 50+ days bow and gun hunting in NY an Ohio, not extreme cold but cold enough. Needs to be quiet, comfortable, not bulky, and big enough to put layers under. I like my clothes big and longer in the sleeve and length. One thing to mention I am...

    A reasonable explanation

    I know this is going to sound weird but if anyone can help explain where they went, this group will! I shot two red squirrels off of my bird feeder Saturday late afternoon. I got busy doing other things and forgot to take care of them Saturday evening. So I was up early Sunday morning and...

    Binos repair?

    So my Nikon Monarch 5 finally bit the dust, 6 years of banging up and down ladders and treestands they finally broke. I have to admit I am the worst person when it comes to protecting them. Its no ones fault but my own. I love this set and to date are the best pair I have ever owned. I would...

    Cuddeback Ambush IR

    So went to get my cameras out of storage last night and having an issue with the battery pack on one of 3 Cuddeback Ambush IR cameras. The battery pack is corroded.

    Weighing seeds

    Any suggestion on how to weigh out your seeds to get the right amounts per acre? I don't have to be 100% accurate but at least close. I bought a bulk bag of a mixture of clover seed from my local seed dealer and he swears by this mix. I bought it in bulk cheaper than if I mixed it myself...

    Treestand rant

    Why do all tree stands come with nylon straps vs the old school chains? I know the answers, cost, lighter, less sound but it should really be about safety!!!!! I started hunting out of Loc-on Lems in the 80's. And loved them. Not the most comfortable stand I ever sat in but very sturdy...
