    DIY game bag material

    How has the durability been with this fabric? I'm thinking about trying this material for my next set of game bags.

    DIY Rokstok Modification

    I painted epoxy on, put the carbon fiber on, added a little more epoxy, and worked it into the carbon the best I could. I did this twice so I have two layers of carbon fiber. Next I sanded it a little and put on one final coat of epoxy to smooth things out before painting it. I’m sure it...

    Grundens vs Helly Hansen Raingear

    What is your normal pant and jacket size? I'm looking at a set of these and want to make sure I get the right size.

    Success rate by weapon choice as a function of advancing technology

    I think these two have a much bigger impact on archery success than advancing technologies. Not saying tech has had no impact, but I simply believe the amount of information on elk hunting easily available online and spending more days afield have the biggest impact on success rates.

    Air pressure reality

    Yup that is definitely simpler I didn’t realize you were talking about a unit with onboard weather info and ballistic calculations. I thought you were talking about manually entering environmental conditions into a ballistic calculator. I’ll end up getting a unit like that when I have the money...

    Air pressure reality

    I’ve been using density altitude (DA) instead of pressure for the last year or so in the shooter app and it’s way simpler. All you need is temperature, elevation, and an DA chart and you’re good to go.

    14 NR Colorado Points

    My buddy had 12 points going into the draw last year. He decided to burn them on a muzzleloader tag that he could've drawn with a few less points, but it was nice going into the draw knowing he should get the tag and we started planning immediately. We ended up having an awesome hunt and an...

    Leather Lined boots/ Hanwag Yukons- anyone?

    You say your leather lined boots dry quicker, my question is have you worn them dry or are you saying the dry quicker on a boot drier? I have terrible luck with membrane lined boots and they seem to always start leaking for me in wet brushy terrain. I'm tempted to try a pair of the leather lined...

    DIY Rokstok Modification

    She’s definitely not the best looking gun out there but lucky for me I don't really care as long as it shoots good!

    DIY Rokstok Modification

    I was a little bit worried about this but it's working well for me. I did have low talley lightweight rings before and those might've been a little on the low side for me, but now with the rail and low warne mountain tech rings, I'm lined up about perfectly.

    DIY Rokstok Modification

    After seeing stock modifications others like @ResearchinStuff and @PathFinder have done to make their guns more shootable and easier to spot their own impacts, I had decided that I was going to try it myself. Then with the Rokstok being built, I used that as a template to modify my original...

    Best adhesive for bonding pic rail to receiver?

    I just did one with JB Weld because that’s what I had at home. First time permanently bonding one so I’m hoping it’ll work.
