    WTB Kowa 554

    I've dug through every thread I can find for the past year but cannot find one for sale. Anyone got a great condition 554 (straight) spotter they want to get rid of?

    Extended Fasting while hunting?

    I'm curious if anyone has ever attempted this? My fatass has been dabbling with some keto, OMAD, and throwing in some short intermittent fasts recently and it seems to be OK so far. I know some guys that have done some legitimate extended fasts (like, 30+ days) and they swear by it. I've...

    Damn you, Kifaru

    For making me spend more money. Just bought a Wolf Gray 14'r with 2 spotting scope pockets (and a hoodie [gotta rep...]). Plan is for a pack I can take on 1-3 night hiking trips with Doggo in-tow. I wanted something that wouldn't startle the Granola Munchers like my full RG Nomad would...

    Grouse in Idaho

    I don't know why I'm just thinking of this, but what is needed, license-wise, to kill grouse in Idaho? I'm heading out here in a week or so for elk but will surely spear a bird if given the opportunity.

    What's your tuning process?

    I'm not new to archery, but I am fairly new to this whole tuning game. I'm finding that I'm on overload with the amount of information that's out there regarding different tuning processes. Here's my situation. I've run a 2010 Bowtech Admiral FLX for the past 8 years while hunting here in...

    Buy a press?

    Just starting to really start researching how to tune my own bow. I've been throwing around the idea of buying an LCA press so that I can start doing everything that I can to tweak my bow to be the best that it can be. Does every good bow tuner need a press at some point? I would assume I...

    Insert glue?

    Getting ready to build my first set of arrows from scratch. I have AAE Max Bond glue for my vanes but neglected to pick up glue for my inserts. Can I use that same glue or do I need something special?

    KDC tripod discount?

    I missed out on the 20% discount they were offering back in May. I'd like to pick up a V2 SnipePod w/ tripod conversion (for glassing) as well as all the accessories. My plan is to have a lightweight tripod with me during archery season for if I need to do some quick glassing, but that I...

    Backcountry rifle weight?

    What's a reasonable weight for a backcountry rifle? Obviously this is subjective and definitely personal, but I'm curious to hear what everyones opinion is. I just got the new Bellm'd Bergara 300WM barrel in for my T/C Encore. Without optics, it's 6Lb 3.5oz. I figure 27oz for the scope I'm...

    What scope do you run?

    Just bought a new 300WM barrel for my T/C ProHunter. Now I need some glass for it. I would prefer lightweight. I can't see myself taking a popshot at more than 700yd or so, but it's possible. I've run Nightforce in the past and really like them. I've been eyeballing their 4-16 x 42 ATACR, but...

    Walk me through the process of caping a skull

    I've watched YouTube vids but none seem that great. I'd like to know how to properly cape out a skull so that I can freeze it for a return trip back East. I assume this is the best option for preserving the hide for future taxidermy. I've got the general idea on how to get up to and around...

    Truck tires

    Alright, I'm ramping up to buy a new truck and am, of course, researching all the goodies I plan to put on it. The truck will be a 2018/19 F-150 SuperCrew with the 5.5' bed; 3.5L EcoBoost. It's main purpose will be trekking cross country, and then getting me where I need to go to access...

    Right bevel broadhead for right offset/helical vanes?

    Thinking about ordering some Cut Throat 125gr broadheads. Never bought a single bevel before. Do I need right bevel heads for an arrow that's fletched with right offset vanes?

    What's the consensus on T/C Pro Hunters for big game hunting?

    My ultimate desire for a backcountry rifle that I have to pack in is a Kimber Adirondack in 6.5c, however, I'm not quite ready to drop the coin on one + an optics setup for it. What I'm thinking instead to get me by for a few years is to buy a barrel for my T/C Pro Hunter muzzle loader that I...

    What should I be doing different?

    In Colorado GMU 71 (near Dolores) on my first elk hunt (2nd rifle). I've been glassing mornings and evenings, and still hunting during mid day. 4 days in and I haven't seen one single animal. Not one. Is this a common thing? Obviously hunting is not a guarantee, but I would think I would...

    Is my sleep system adequate?

    Heading to SW Colorado in a couple days for 2nd rifle. First time ever hunting there. Just curious if RS thinks my sleep system is adequate for the temps, keeping in mind that I (think I) tend to sleep warm. Have been tracking temps for surrounding towns and seems to be anywhere from 20-mid...

    Antler size thread

    Being new to elk hunting, I'm still learning how to judge antler size on the hoof. Can we get this thread going with pics of your bulls with what they scored? Anything from spikes to 400"+ would be helpful. Let's get her going. I'll contribute my pic when I get back from CO early November...
