    Black powder corrosion timeing

    Black powder corrosion timeing

    My brother and I were shooting the Kentucky long rifle dad left us when my ham handed brother broke the ramrod. Dad always taught us to clean our black powder rifles the day we shot them but I don't have a 42 inch rod now. I do have one on the way, but am worried about waiting. How corrosive...

    Blood Tracking Lights: Best in the Business

    I have never tried one. Like others have posted, I back out and leave some flagging at dark:30. I can see how they could be valuable in warmer climates,like looking for an Arizona or New Mexico bull.

    Trekking poles

    I have Easton compact carbons. Collapse down to fit in the pack while hunting. Whatever you choose,I recommend lever locks over twist style poles. I have had nothing but trouble from the twist style

    Boots for TTH Challeng ?

    Just wondering what most guys wear for the challenge. Do some of you wear your actual elk hunting boots to safely carry the big pack ?

    Havalon Evolve multitool

    I don't see the need for a clip either. I carry a Wave also,and it will always be around spike camp or the truck.

    Really? You need pliers to change your blades. Most of my buddies can do that in bloody surgical gloves.

    Calling in Mule Deer

    After a setup cold calling into dark timber (cow calls) I stood up and turned around to a black bear 40 yards out slipping in on me. We were both very bummed the other wasn't an elk

    Havalon Evolve multitool

    Anyone get to mess around with one of these yet? Seems like a good opportunity to switch out the heavy Leatherman for a more hunt specific tool.
