Seems like there are two hunting America's.
One has too many deer, not enough access and not enough hunters.
One has not enough ungulates for demand, lots of hunters, and pretty good access.
One of those places seems great for anyone to shoot a crossbow, one seems like there is already...
Check out tradlab who did lots of broadhead testing. He does product and industrial testing for a living.
Most important factors were shooter skill>bow and arrow tune>Broadhead sharpness> Broadhead design was lowest on importance...
I started shooting 3 blade vpa this year so I could sharpen...

Hey folks,
I'm looking to trade my Opticron MM3 6OMM spotter with the SDLv2 eyepiece for some 14-16x binos. It's in amazing shape, but I just don't use it but a day or two each season. Nice lightweight awesome glass. With the SDLv2 eyepiece it runs 15-45x.
The worst thing in the world is politicians telling F&G how to operate. There have been several terrible bills introduced this year, including giving outfitters who kill a wolf a sheep, goat or mouse tag! WTF.

Max distance was just under 20 miles in a day hunting from the truck back to the truck.
Average 3-10 miles when I'm in the backcountry with my llamas.
That being said I got a cow with my stickbow this year 3/4 mile from the truck🤷
Maven B1 10x42 binos. Great shape, small dent in the left front metal frame (in photo) they do have the ring with my name and phone number. You can have Maven make you a new one.

Bought one in person for a friend this morning, just needed his last name, birthday, and the last 4 of his social. There were 10 folks in line at my small idaho town vendor.
FHF Pro M Size Medium. Only worn a couple days, prefer the lid that opens down. Includes FHF range finder pouch. 100 TYD.
Kryptek Dalibor Jacket size M. Great shape, need a size Large. 80 TYD
Merino undies and base layer. Merino can't take a beating but doesn't smell. Non back packing you can just wear synthetic layers.
Waffle fleece, military surplus are a great deal.
Puffy any brand.
You can get non hunting gear at a great price. Elk don't care as much about sound, I'd check...
I wanted a half ton diesel so bad and researched all of them, made spreadsheets etc. Basically all the great things about it will be erased if you own it long enough due to expensive and often long DEF repairs and issues. You might try deleting, but then your relying on non factory software...
Got my first traditional bow elk this year and with a bow my buddy made me, pretty awesome. Got my friend a 12 yard shot on a nice bull. Bought a second tag and held out for a bull, got close but couldn't make it happen.
