RE: Stupid Question of the Day: Why Are Hunting Arrows Shorter Than Target Arrows?

Oh okay. I got the hunting arrows from the archery shop. So that makes sense. I guess it really doesn't matter too much though as I was able to shoot both kinds pretty well.

So I guess I will...

Stupid Question of the Day: Why Are Hunting Arrows Shorter Than Target Arrows?

How much do you pay for arrows?

I shot a couple of them into a foam target and the tips got stuck and the arrows ended up being...

RE: I found a dead turkey today...

Okay, guys. I have an update on this. The fish and game guy came and looked at the turkey.

RE: I found a dead turkey today...

I think it was a gobbler. I could not get close enough to it to find out more as the stench was abominable. There are pictures and video of it on my blog.

It looks like some ******* killed it and left it to rot. There was an explosion of feathers a few feet from where the body was. I was scouting that area today.

RE: I don't think I'll get a bird this season...

I won't. This was my first season so I learned a lot from it. But I am also tired now and don't plan to go out tomorrow morning as there is no place to go with birds that I know of. So I am going to...

RE: I don't think I'll get a bird this season...

I just cannot find any birds. I scouted again tonight but nothing. I am not sure where to go next to try to find them. No answer to my crow calls at all.

Three days left until the season ends....

It ends for us on May 31 and I am not seeing birds at my usual spot. I am going to go out tonight and scout again but it is getting very late to get a bird.

I am not optimistic. <sigh>
