Super proud of this one!!!! Took this beautiful bull in Northern Colorado on a backcountry backpacking hunt. I was 11 miles in & solo for 5 days. The bulls were call shy for some reason, but I was able to sneak in to 20 yrds and put an arrow through the boiler room. It was an absolute brutal...

What an awesome hunt and I love to see the big smiles on your daughters faces. I have a 10 & 7 yr old girls and can’t wait to get them out in the field

My snacks include: Jerky, honey stingers wafers, pro bars, cliff bars, honey stinger gel packs, Justin’s peanut butter packs. High energy & high protein is what I always go for.

I’m guessing it won’t be long before the hunting license and tag fees go up tremendously so they can manage the introduced parasite.

I see in later post that you already went a different route than the savage, but here is what I did for future references. I too hated the feel of the “accustock” so I got a little creative. I took a grinder and went to work, removing a bunch of material. Removed the cheesy adjustable riser...

You can’t go wrong with the attack pant. I have several different styles of kuiu pants and the attack pants are my go to pant. I don’t know if I’d use them as a mid-layer though, if that’s what your thinking, unless you’re talking about wearing a bib-style setup over them. I don’t know what temp...

I just did a last minute fletched/bare shafttune at 20yrds and finally got em both flying perfectly at 20 yards. Leaving September 5th for a 15 day Idaho backpack elk hunt, so pumped!!!!

I have been using OnX for a couple of years now and I just recently got the pro version of basemap. I’m really liking basemap and find it easy to use. The satellite imagery on OnX for the area I hunt in Idaho & Colorado is horrible, 75% of the map tiles are covered in snow, absolutely...

I had 2 rifles with limbsavers on them, one of the being a grind to fit and both became a sticky mess. I contacted Limbsaver and They explained to me that their rubber compound formulation was incorrect and the compound deteriorates over time. They sent me 2 new pads and they did not compensate...

I haven’t noticed a difference in feel, but I do make sure to wash my wool in light detergents made especially for wool and I usually air dry or low dryer setting

I have the 1s gen viper pst ffp 6-24x50 and haven’t had a single tracking issue. Like others said, if yours has an issue, contact Vortex and they will send you a brand new one “possibly upgraded model” if they can’t fix the problem. Completely transferable vip warranty, no receipt required

I always use some sort of merino wool no matter what the temp is. Wool is excellent for pulling moisture away from the skin and also helps with scent control. Take a look at smart wools that have a mixture of materials. I’ve become a fan of the Darn Tough Sock Co with a lifetime guarantee , they...

I have a 22-250 that needs a new barrel and have been wanting to convert it to the creed or 7mm-08 for several years now. No matter how many articles I read, I just can decide which one to choose. From what I hear, you can’t really go wrong with either one.

For a clear coat, check out southern hydrographics on amazon. They have gloss and flat versions. It’s basically an automotive grade clear coat in a can that has uv protection.

So out of curiosity, I just ran a little test. Took 25 pieces of old Winchester brass and put them in the toaster oven for the same exact 5 minute time & with a digital thermometer. The oven reached its max temp of 485 degrees at 4 min 30sec with only 30 seconds remaining. The tarnish color was...
