    Anybody try Maker T-Rex bullets on game?

    In a couple weeks I will be using them for a black bear hunt out of my 308 pistol. If I am able to fill my tag I will let you know how they perform. Rob

    Solo use - larger floorless shelters

    If I could afford both I would have both, but in my case I use the Cimarron for solo and when a buddy is with. I have been more then happy with it. Either way I think you will be happy.

    Solo use - larger floorless shelters

    I agree with Kevin. It is easier to lose weight else where IMO. I would prefer to get stronger in the off season and carry a few extra pounds then be uncomfortable.

    Last California hunt.

    the first trip I made was 30 Sep-3 Oct(shot the two bucks on 2 Oct). Temps were in the 50's and 60's during the day and 30's at night. Every day was clear and sunny. The second trip I made in hopes of getting my buddy on a Buck and myself on a bear was 14-19 Oct. It was warm, in the 70's for...

    Last California hunt.

    Thank you everyone! I find it funny how you can spend so much time preparing for a hunt and it can be over so fast. I jumped the larger one while he was bed down. After I shot him the second one stood up about 50 yards away and gave me a shot. 10 seconds it was all over. Packing those two deer 7...

    Last California hunt.

    This past deer season will be my last in California. I was stationed in California three years ago, and it afforded me the first time to hunt in almost seven years. It has been challenging to learn how to hunt the backcountry, but I loved every minute of it. Through hours of driving, miles of...

    Any Feedback On Cabelas Instinct Insulated Sleeping Pad?

    I own a Cabelas Instinct pad. I use it in my floorless shelter and love it. I have yet to use it at any temps below 30 F, but it has not been an issue. My hunting partner has gone through a few from REI but the first 2 started leaking. The Instinct is a little heavy at 26 OZ but its 2.5-3" thick...

    Best regular length wide sleeping pad

    I have been extremely happy with my Caelas instinct pad. It is heavier than most at 26 oz, but it has been extremely comfortable and durable in my floorless shelter. It is has a R-value of 4.6 and has large baffles on the sides to keep you from rolling off, and at 3" thick sleeping on your side...

    Blacktail Antler Development and Elevation

    Interesting theory, I could see how elevation could affect antler growth. I was up north this weekend trying to do a little scouting myself. The road to the trail head was washed out. Couldn’t find an alternate route. Little bummed since It is a long drive from the bay. I’ll have to do a little...
