Archery opener in Idaho

No I didn't get anything on my first ever (long) weekend of archery hunting, but I learned a ton. Saturday was very hot. I didn't see anything but one measly doe. I didn't hunt sunday. Monday was much much cooler and my buddy and I spotted 5 bulls and at least 8 cows spread out on a large hillside w...

Re: Complete Bullcrap...

I am pissed that this happened. We need to get the number back down to about half of where it is. This is sad thing for sportsman in our area. I guess their is one bright spot in all this! We managed to get 106 of the dirty thieves in the 118 days they were off the list! That was without a hunting s...

Re: Buying a new bow (diamond black ice or bowtech allegianc

I got the black ice last night. I took my internet printout into the pro shop to show them what was included in the package on the internet and see what they could do to match or beat it. The package was $799 on the internet with no sales tax. Idaho has 6% sales tax. I figured if he could get me to ...

Unless someone posts up some trash talk about the Black Ice, I think I will be purchasing one tonight or tomorrow night on the way home from work.

Re: Buying a new bow (diamond black ice or bowtech allegianc

Thanks for the input.

I have shot Matthews, Hoyt, Diamon/Bowtech, Bear, and a few others I don't remember. The Allegiance is pretty smooth on the draw, but the Black Diamond seems to be more comfortable in my hand.

Again, thanks for the input.

Re: Buying a new bow (diamond black ice or bowtech allegianc

I think you are probably right. There is about $50 difference. The black ice is less. That means $50 I can buy gas to go hunting one time.

Buying a new bow (diamond black ice or bowtech allegiance)

I have been shooting a bunch of bows and trying to find the ONE that I will buy. I have zero experience with bows. Rifle hunter all my life and switching to the strings this season. After a week of solid bow shopping I have come to the conclusion that I could look forever and not be any closer to a ...

Re: Life long rifle hunter--going archery!

So, I have shot quite a few bows in the past week. I am currently leaning toward the Diamond "Black Ice" because of its size, weight and feel. It feels good, balanced, and light. It shoots pretty quiet and I think it would do the job. The other one that I am considering is the Bowtech Allegiance. It...
