As to breath odor control, an old timer told me that chewing on some parsley periodically does work.

This post is awesome! I was laughing so hard reading it! This, to me, is the funniest one from this post:

"I shot the biggest buck of my life today.....hit him right in the boiler room with my new bow thats better than yours. Got down and found my arrow, arrow is covered in green stuff, white slimy stuff, somefat, some pieces of antler, and a little blood."

I couldn't stop laughing after this one! Well done to everyone on here!

No luck so far.

I was supposed to go on a week long mulie hunt back in September, but a car accident in July and a two month layoff from work ruined that plan.

Next year, for sure. :]

ROFLOL!

But, you missed a few:

What's the best treestand?

Should I pee or keep it in a bottle (insert "Time in a Bottle" music here and change the word "time")?

Should I paper tune or bare shaft or what?

Are hunting shows the end of hunting as we know it?

Bow -vs- Gun...(infinitum ad nausium).

Traditional -vs- compound -vs- crossbow...(infinitum ad nausium).

My personal favorite: HIGH FENCE!!!
Jeremiah, just for you, I'll answer those ones I missed as best I can;

What's the best treestand?

The one that gets you off of the ground and in a tree, obviously.

I prefer Gorilla brang treestands, but there are numerous other companies currently manufacturing excellent treestands.

The Pee question has been answered;

Only in a gatorade bottle.

Should I paper tune, bare shaft, or what?

I've never been a fan of paper tuning or bare shaft tuning, though both will definitely help you acheive excellent results.

I prefer walk back tuning.

Take your bow to your local pro shop and seek assistance from the employees there, as the hands on experience will greatly aid in all your future archery endeavors.

Are hunting shows the end of hunting as we know it?

Far from it.

I think the majority of them are the next best thing.

The next best thing in comdey, that is.

I always laugh when I hear the pros talk about their hunting experiences.

Bow vs. Gun

Bow.

Hands down.

No questions asked.

Game over.

Traditional vs. Compound vs. Crossbow

I won't even touch this one with any of my lame jokes.

It'll open the proverbial can o' worms.

Jumbo sized.

(And for the record, compound or traditional for me.)

High Fence hunting; ethical?

This is akin to baiting, in my book.

Is it legal?

Yes.

Then its ethical.

Is it necessarily for everyone?

No.

Is it for me?

No.

Will I congradulate you for a "trophy" animal taken on a high fence hunt?

Most definitely, but I'll be gritting my teeth through it all.

This is more for the Bowhunting Gear Review but it pops up here on occasion...

What boots?

Also...

What size arrow?

I think we need to post Easton's link where you input you specs and it recommends the best shaft for your set up.

All others were great, keeps me coming back to see if there was any others missed. You did a great job covering 99% of them!

What boots?

The ones that cover your feet.

Honestly, it depends on what you're hunting.

Something with good ankle support is a must though, no matter what game you're after.

I prefer a lightweight waterproofleather boot as opposed to a rubber boot.

Atleast a couple of these I don't nessesarly agree with Heres one "String Loop or No?

There is no good reason not to shoot with a loop.

I suggest having your local pro shop tie one on for you the next time you're in and trying it out. If you like it, keep it. If you don't, remove it and shoot off the string."And another"Which camo should I buy?

Any open pattern camoflauge available on the market today will work, but its mainly personal preference.

I suggest looking at Predator, Enigma, or ASAT" Shooting without a loop has worked for me for about 25 years,I've tried em and don't feel they do me any good.The camo thing,I could write at length on this.Even though I wear it,most importantly just sit still,the deers eye's are more keen at picking up movement than they are at determining the best camo.I have killed many deer wearing carhardts.

Just caught this post, and figured I would clear a couple things up;

What I said was that there is no good reason not to shoot a loop.

They have advantages over shooting directly off the string. While this meathod may not be for everyone, there is no good reason not to shoot with one.

As for the camoflauge/movement, I completely agree.

However, I feel that by wearing an open pattern camoflauge such as Predator, Enigma, or ASAT, I am able to get away with more slight movement than I would be able toif I were wearing any of the big name camoflauges.

Camoflauge gives us confidence if nothing else, and I'm sure we'll all agree that in order to be a successful hunter the majority of the time we need to be confident.
