    Suppressor wrap

    Click on one and look at the details, you'll see it's price per foot. Looks like a good DIY.

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    Ok I got another one to share. Public land deer hunting, Davy Crockett National Forest, near Kilgore, Texas 20+ years ago. I always go in very early and take my climber stand way up high, usually in the crown of a pine tree near white oaks, and don't come down until after dark. I generally don't...

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    You may have seen this here in Texas. I saw it live. I emailed the station and suggested they buy a bag of rubber lizards and everyone throw them at Michael all day :D

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    Idaho Elk in 1997. The scariest part of this trip was on the way in. The closest to death that I believe I ever got. A friend in Oregon bought a jet boat mostly for fishing. We heard of some good Elk hunting up the Middle Fork of the Salmon, accessible by jet boat. How hard could it be? 30 mile...

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    Part 2: When they got Bud to the ER they took X-RAYS, etc. The ER doc says, "looks like both sides of the chest, pellets thru and thru, prep him for emergency surgery". That typically means crack the chest and do what they can for perforated heart/lungs/etc. They'd given Bud meds for the...

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    The terror for me in this story was the realization that I could have been standing next to my hunting buddy (whom I'll refer to here as Bud) when this incident occurred. I do wish I would have been there for him anyway. I flew to Mississippi to Turkey hunt with Bud the weekend before. Bud was...

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    It appeared to have been a short stub of dead branch, from what was broken off where he was. I was honestly too shook up to pay much attention to it.

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    These are great stories. Here's a couple climbing tree stand adventures. Bowhunting public land in Texas, Davy Crockett National Park. I hike far in early in the dark and come out well after dark to hopefully avoid other hunters. I'm in the dark in heavy rain, and spot a large, leaning but...

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    Many years ago I was hunting Blacktail Deer in the Trinity Alps area in Northern California. Some very steep country. I was on the side of a pretty steep mountain, with rocky ridges running down the sides. I peered over a ridge and about 100 yards away was a good sized Black Bear eating berries...

    Looking for first pack.

    Kifaru with the gun bearer works for me. I piggyback a Badlands daypack. Not actually using the gun bearer in this pic. Idaho Elk, middle fork of the Salmon.
