Never made it out of the field. Wind must have pushed the arrow but it hit the femoral artery. Processed it last night...

    It's time for a new sight on my Parker Bow. The one that came on it won't stay tight and I find the pins to be too big. Any recommendations out there for an affordable sight? I think a 3 or maybe 4 pin would be suitable for me. Thanks Adam

    I've rented a compound bow a few times at my local Archery range and I'm having alot of fun shooting at targets. I don't hunt but I'd like to get a compound bow just for target shooting.

    With all the different laws out there I know some weapons aren't allowed in NY i.e tasers. However are cross bow's legal. If so does it mean that we have to go through another permit application period or can we just go and buy them?

Very happy with it. $875 fully set up by Spring Valley Sportsmen in Delhi NY, Mark was a great guy to deal with and took the time to set up and tune the bow to...

    Wondering if anyone bow hunts any of the state lands in or around Broome County. I've bow hunted up at Oakley Corners in the past, but you won't catch me there during gun season. It's relatively close to my house. During bow season I think I've run into 6 people at most throughout the entire...

    In light of recently winning the "karma for hunters" i figured i'd keep it going.... Up for your consideration is a Hoyt bow sling in real-tree camo. I used it a few times but went with a NAP sling instead. I'll close the karma some time on Sunday.
