I am 37 yrs old and 6'3". I know nothing about what type of bow to get. There is a Cabella's, Bass Pro Shop and Dick's sports close to me. I will use this bow for lots of practice and eventual hunting deer, turkey and possibly much larger game. I have become addicted to the Outdoor Channel watching big game bow hunting and mess around with my neighbors bow in the backyard. I want to begin seriously learning and hunting soon. I assume there are bows that will work for all sizes of game. I dont know what brand, style or anything else to get. I know I could spend a ton on a state of the art bow. I want to get a nice bow that can do it all but at the most reasonable price so, I dont want to get the best, most expensive bow. Something reasonable. Thanks in advance for the advice.

when the mini series rifles fire the same caliber and accept simililar hi cap mags... Many liberals think the cali assault weapons ban is effective yet they do not know that it is purely a cosmetic ban with little bearing on the availability of these caliber rifles? why are they so ignorant politically?

I've been shooting a winchester model 70 7mm 08 for whitetail hunting in Michigan. So far I have only had one good look at a buck with it, but he went down on the spot. Basically I just would like to know more info about it. If I mounted a scope to it, would it be good for longer ranges? Plus I think my sights are off to the left a bit, how can I fix that? I'm a pretty good shot so I dont think its me (If I aim left of the target, I hit it).

im from mich. but i hunt in eastern ky.i usually go for a long weekend for rifle season.our property is 290 acres of wooded mountains and open field with alot of creeks.only going there once for the 4th of july for vacation, and then in nov for deer season doesnt give me any time to scout. so when im hunting its hit and miss. i use alot of scent killer but im still concerned about the wind..it seems like the wind kicks in different directions constantly..is this because of the mountains? or is there a specific way that wind blows over this kind of terrain? hunting michigan isnt nearly as complicated when it comes to wind conditions as it is there....

I have an antique revolver but i am having trouble finding its value. It is a Smith & Wesson .32 revolver with a serial #38034. If there is anyone out there who might know the value, please answer. It is very important.

I would like my husband (not my son's father) to take my son hunting. But we have different opinions on when would be a good age to teach my son the basics of hunting - even just to take him along for some quality Step-dad and step-son time.

My opinion is: Take him now. Teach him the safety stuff. Just spend some good quality one-on-one time (since he rarely ever does).

His opinion: He's too young. Maybe next year.

Your opinion: ????

Thanks

Hey everyone!
Im 16 and have been riding for a while, and i think i am ready to buy my own horse. Ive done the research and everythin, i know where i would board it, and all that stuff.
I am just wondering two things:

1. What breeds are good for a first-horse buyer? (a friend reccomended Hanoverians 'cause they have a great personality and are versatile)

and

2. How long should you have been riding before you get your own horse? Some people at the equestrian center i ride at only waited three years, some waited more. How long should you have been riding before you get your own horse, 'cause i dont want to get this horse and not be ready for it.

Thanx sooo much everyone!!

For safety purposes, my house does not have any guns in case an intruder comes. But I do have an aluminum baseball bat. Will a baseball bat serve as a good weapon that can potentially stop an intruder? thankss

Im looking to get away from shotguns and go rifle. I hunt whitetail, but now bear has recently opened up in my hunting area in NY (9w). Im not a fan of hunting open fields or anything and I'm not too worried about distance as I will not take very long shots. I'm also a college student, so I would like a rifle that is inexpensive. Also, the less recoil the better lol. So what would you suggest?

I want to have ideas for new kinds of knives and guns. Being a designer kinda. I like guns and knives. I know a lot about them. For someone who is only 16 i can still tell you prolly 2x the amount of info on a knife or a gun than the common person can. I dont mean to really brag but i am just tellin the truth. so i wanna use what knowledge i have and put it to use and make a career out of it.

How can i do that?

These are handmade wooden plaques for mounting your trophy horns. Can be sent as just the plaques for you to mount the horns yourself or horns can be sent and mounted then shipped back.
