    Ticks vs Floorless Tents

    Not to be an alarmist, but I recently moved to N Idaho and went bear hunting this last weekend. Flicked probably 15 ticks off of me and 3 off my skin in 2 days! None had latched on thank god. Furthermore, I had used permethrin on my clothes maybe 2 weeks ago and only washed them once. Then I...

    Moving from Wyoming to N. Idaho

    Ya like I said, I feel pretty good about finding a place in Idaho right now, but I can see where derrick454@ was coming from in his decision.

    Moving from Wyoming to N. Idaho

    Currently we are staying at my folks house in Spokane. Looking to hopefully find something in Idaho, but I can see derrick454@s point about WA. It's cheaper and combined with the lack of state income tax you would make more. Still clinging to the idea of finding a good deal in Idaho for now though.

    Moving from Wyoming to N. Idaho

    I think as long as we're about an hour away from Spokane we can provide the kind of support we want to so that gives us a decent amount of options.

    Moving from Wyoming to N. Idaho

    Thanks guys! Well.. we have officially made it to Spokane and have been looking for our own place the last few weeks. Seems like we'll be able to find something we can be happy with. Time will tell.

    Digiscoping - Magview vs. Ollin

    Ollin seems like it itll be perfect for me. Im not going to run the phone case year round but always have it in the rig and don't think I'll mind running it full time during hunting season. LOVE THE INDEXING!!!!

    Ya I read your comments about the downside of V1 but I dont have a iphone with 3 cameras so the zoom dont bother me and I never use my iphone flashlight so that dont bother me either. Idk if theres anything that will really bother me that much and I dont mind running the case during hunts and...

    New Digiscoping Option—MagView **Review Added 8/3/22**

    Ya I did try the grid. The magnet is so strong though that as you are slowly trying to bring it in it reaches that critical point where it slams together and I lose it. I guess it all depends what is most important to someone in a digiscoping solution. For me I have realized I would sacrifice...

    New Digiscoping Option—MagView **Review Added 8/3/22**

    Also, why is the Ollin being hammered by members on here for being shilled by cringy youtubers, yet somehow the Magview is dodging this stereotype? It seems to me that I have seen PLENTY of influencers pushing the crap out of Magview just the same. Seems a little hypocritical to me.

    New Digiscoping Option—MagView **Review Added 8/3/22**

    Full season with the magview in the books and I was disappointed with the indexing. Kept trying to tell myself it wasn't that bad (due to the cash I spent on it) but I have come to terms that if the Ollin truly nails the indexing I am going to give it a try. Anyone else make this switch? The...

    Digiscoping - Magview vs. Ollin

    Also, to those saying use the grid - it wasn't helpful to me. Reason being, even when you would go slow to try and align it perfectly at some point the strength of the magnet forces the phone to the spotter really fast and all your careful alignment goes out the window. Ya you can move it in a...

    The real problem with the magview is the magnets are so strong that even if you are going in slow for a perfect index at some point the magnet hits a critical point where it rips the phone to the spotter and all hope is lost in nailing the index.

    Quick and indexable phone scope spotter attachment

    Well after a season of use with the magview, I can say... It didn't get any easier trying to get the perfect index. I always had to dink around with it and missed several animals just like I used to with the phoneskope (main reason I wanted to try something new). The magview sure is sexy and...
