    First Archery hunt in Idaho

    So I'm curious how many of you carry a spotting scope during archery season? I am thinking of bringing mine but probably leaving it in the truck I have a good set of binos.

    First Archery hunt in Idaho

    I'm trying out pioneer zone. Well my 13+ drive will afford me the opportunity to listen to it all and I will have no one to bother with me practicing my calling. I'm hoping to hike in far enough to be away from other hunters but that is a dilemma too being solo and getting to far in

    First Archery hunt in Idaho

    This is going to be my second ever elk hunt and first ever archery hunt of anything. I struck out on all my draws so I picked up a OTC tag in Idaho. My first elk hunt was also in Idaho. Unfortunately everyone dropped out on me so this has now become another solo hunt. What I am super excited...

    Sitka stormfront vs thunderhead pants

    I bought the stormfronts last season. They worked great for me. Through the rain and snow they kept me dry to the bone. They are super easy to remove. The sound from the pants didn't bother me since I was in rifle season I was consistently far enough out from deer that it was a non issue. I...
