solid target. It's about time for a new one.. just sucks the price has increased but what hasn't these days. And for the record, we did blow through one years ago lol a bunch of guys together just hanging out, shooting and barbequing on the weekends. Rhinehart did send a new one after we destroyed it. But it definitely took a long while for us to destroy the target.
I tell you the problem with people in Colorado there from Colorado and pricks and rude and dont knos nothing hospitality. Now i knwo that im generalizing here but 90 percent of the people are just rude and angry
Because of state citizens, losing their hunting ground two out of stators, I think all state hunting areas should be limited to citizens of the state only
I haven't shot a 6.8 but I have an aggressively braked 300 win mag that my wife loves shooting. If the math from brake tests is accurate it should have roughly 14-15 pounds of recoil. If I could cut a 6.8 Western recoil that much I don't think my wife would ever hand the rifle back over.
@RJBiteanerd recoil was huge factor for me personally. Not so much for hunting but for practicing on the range. The reduced recoil of the 6.8 (even in a much lighter rifle) allows me to shoot it more comfortably, which in turns means I'll practice more. I know some guys will say to roughen up but I like being comfortable when practicing so I'm comfortable when hunting. The 6.8 sends more than enough energy down range for hunting elk/deer.
@@Recruitcreative there's nothing wrong with that. The he man culture in many disciplines is what holds people back from improving. People complain about brakes, suppressors, and everything other little thing to be more "manly" while hurting themselves. A custom 6.8 build is on my list once I start reloading and I expect it'll be my firearm of choice once everything is said and done. Since I don't reload I'm still working with the win mag for quality ammo availability where I live. If 6.8 took off like I'd hoped I would have bought it instead of the win mag as on paper it's about the absolute perfect round.
@@saltyguerrilla precision Armament M11. Looks like a howitzer brake on the end of my win mag but it works. Ready to run with an optic, sling and 5 round mag the win mag is 9 pounds 9 ounces. No brake it's a handful but with the brake it's on par with my 308.
I just switched about 2 months ago and agree with everything you are saying. Destroyed my shoulder a couple years ago in a hockey game and the thumb release seems to relieve a lot of stress on the damaged area, increasing my accuracy.
@@Recruitcreative I picked up a B3 Exit from Sportsman's Warehouse, wanted to try one without breaking the bank and was pleasantly surprised with it. Heading up to unit 37/371 the second week of Sept, hoping to put the new release to use.
The biggest sheds I’ve found have all come from public except one 200” set on private. I feel like I could kill a booner if I could ever get drawn for certain spots. But the parks workers and friends always get drawn
Literally today, on the side of a 2 lane road in middle missouri, i found one of these that flew off somones truck, road rash all over the cooler, but no holes or broken parts. Ice and miller lite inside haha. 55 mph road. Damn good value for free off the side of the road. Sturdy cooler
me and a friend went down to Freer and got screwed we paid 300a for a 3 day hunt he had stands up and feeders we got screwed but read what other hunters wrote on the wall of the blinds we added to the list you paid your money it sounded like honey you didn't see a buck you got F and left the place
a lease is only good as it's members but it only takes one to screw it up that is why you get rid of the F ups to many Idiots in the national forest they shoot at any thing that moves
I’m 39 been bow hunting since 13 , started out shooting fingers then index release for past 20 years, switched to thumb release last summer and extended my range and accuracy a lot! Only modification is you have to move your peep site that’s it!
Thanks for sharing. I actually was able to keep my peep in the same location. I was expecting to have to move it but for whatever reason it remained the same
@@Recruitcreative wow, that’s awesome then! I ended up with the spot hog Friday night delight I think it’s called, it was marked down to $5 lol! Only reason i even switched but glad I did
I live in Colorado and I hunt and it's about damn time that they do this they need to do more they need to eliminating some seasons and get rid of all the over the counter bull tags for rifle all the units should be a four-point restriction we've been saying for years that the elk numbers are just not what the state claims at least in the area I hunt which is South Central you just don't see the herds like you used to or even the Bulls Colorado claims the largest elk herd in the west they also count the elk in Estes Park that you can't hunt the elk that are in dinosaur monument that you can't hunt all those elk part of their count it's deceiving at best
I haven’t been able to test it out walking through thick brush but outside of the brush the features of the pack like the zippers, buckles and frame aren’t too noisy. In my opinion if you are dragging any pack through the brush it’s going to be excessively noisy though. I’ll see if I can do a noise test compared to my other packs and get back to you
I haven’t any issues coming from the switching of releases. A few years back I was having issues when I switched to a much lighter bow. They were similar to what you are describing and I had to learn not to close my hand and death grip the riser to prevent torquing the bow.
I had to switch because of a major surgery on my abdomen the wrist strap made my guts feel like they were going to pull apart but after getting a much smoother drawing bow and going to a thumb release I was able to shoot again.
Literally just got home from shooting 6.8 and 300 WSM back to back….100, 300, 500 and 600. About the fifth time for this. Browning X-bolts with silencers. Hornady 200 gr ELD-X vs 165 accubonds . Hunt elk every year and got the 6.8 with the intention of swapping over. Not easy in my mind because 300 WSM has 3 bulls down over 450 yds. One at 670 although I don’t think I want to repeat that. That being said, in short, swap complete. complete. Everything you said, yup.
It worked out for the better this time around for Jordan but if it was up to me I would’ve taken the shot! Especially after three empty seasons before.
I don’t see this being that big of a deal. In the time you made your approach, the elk could have shaken you either way. I don’t see the ethical violation implication.
You bring up an interesting point. It's one more technological advantage put onto a growing pile of them. It's similar to bow sights that range and tell you where to aim. It's basically a crutch for a poor hunter. Ideally, everyone should have to learn the hard way.....by becoming a good hunter and not relying on their technological do-dads. It's called fair chase.
I think we as hunters should stick together. Average hunter is getting older and older every year and if we allow things like this to break us apart we can easily be the last generation that has the opportunity to hunt in the first place.
I agree. My intent wasn’t to start an argument, just to raise awareness on things we should consider. So far the comments have been well meaning and coming from a good mindset.
@@Recruitcreative I think you came from a good place I liked your video as well. I just know these types of conversations can bring out the rich 60 year olds who pay 50k for a tag and another 50k for a guide that gets them within 10 feet of an elk saying "Psh muzzle loaders what are you fighting in a war?!"
You are free to feel however you like about location marking technology and I understand the concern you've expressed about the unfair advantage it might provide in stalking and chase. But unless you're into purely primitive hunting, the sport is overwhelmed by technological advantages. compound bows, carbon fiber arrows, optical sites, advanced camouflage, VHF radios, Gore-Tex fabric, tree stands, range finding (in general), firearms, gps, night vision optics, drones, etc... All of these are used in hunting and provide significant tactical advantages over natural prey. Seems pretty weird to worry about this one thing but none of the others. Pin dropping technology provides significant positive aspects to hunting. It increases hunter safety by helping users navigate unfamiliar terrain and find their way back to base or to safety points. It also provides significant ethical improvements in wounded animal location, an ethical concern we should all share.
All valid points! I felt a bit hypocritical in only bringing up the rangefinder and cell cams. At the end up the day it’s up to the hunter to decide what they are comfortable with or not so banning these probably isn’t the right move. I think as hunters it’s our responsibility though to ask these questions when products like these are released. I want the next generation of hunters to at least consider fair chase and ethics before making a decision. That’s where I’m coming from. Thanks again for the well educated comment though. We appreciate the feedback!
Learn how to hunt instead of relying on tech to hold your hand in the woods. Many of the things you mentioned are illegal for hunting in Colorado. Radios, drones, etc all illegal for use in hunting. It's not fair chase and to many real conservationists, it's borderline unethical. If you need tech to keep you "safe", maybe hunting isn't for you.
You’re right. 90% of the time they aren’t going to be in the same place anyways. I was thinking more along the lines of the deer being bedded down and staying out which is also a likely scenario
No. You can do this with an app on your iPhone etc. what’s your point? So you’re saying it’s not ETHICAL to simply mark where you’re objective’s at which you can do without the rangefinder. Do you not use technology in the clothes you wear, the food you eat, the pack you use etc. It’s just marketing and at the end of the day, you still have to hunt and make it happen! CHEERS!
I agree that those other technology’s are a benefit, but I think that this one is taking it a step too far. We have become immune to these advances and I think it’s worth asking the question. Thanks for commenting and good luck this season!
You have an app that you can take a picture of something and it drops a pin? Or you are saying you’ve been manually reading the map and adding a waypoint on your own?
No, you're dropping a pin looking at a map and then walking to it. He tried that in this video and missed by 800 yards. Terrain navigation in big mountain country is a whole different level.
I agree with you. This takes away the "hunt" i don't like it. I just gave away my compound bow and have started using a recurve. But i don't think it should be banned.
@@Recruitcreative love it . Haven't harvested any big game yet but got a couple rabbits lol ... but fun to shoot and it's not all about the kill to me.
