    Arrow wraps and finding arrows

    I've used wraps for a few years and switched to use the silver reflective wraps last season. They've been very helpful at dusk/after dark. I hang my quiver at eye level and the wraps reflect enough to help get me back to my tree to pickup my gear. I've found an arrow that was reflecting my...

    Montana (and other state) hunter orange laws out dated?

    You have a lot more faith in your fellow man than I do.. I think of orange kinda like wearing a motorcycle/bike helmet. I don't think it should be required but I'll wear it. Now I don't think full body suit is necessary but a all blaze orange hat should be good enough. Hate to say it but...

    Carrying child in hunting pack

    I strapped up our Kelty with my grab it last night a used a cinch strap to hold the carrier against my bag. Seemed to be comfortable enough I'm tempted to see if using the meat shelf might work better. However that might compress the carrier too much making for an uncomfortable carry for the...

    MKC Jackstone

    My only reason for picking one up is to see if I actually like magnacut. It very might be a knife I gift someone because I don't like the way it sharpens and the giftee will only have to send it in to MKC for sharpening. It seems like "everyone" is loving it but Its been 15 years since i've...

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    So I finished this podcast last week when I was on an airplane. I feel a little better about it, but I'm a bit skeptical about it still. Sounds like they are trying to target areas that have been previously used for oil/natural gas extractions, but my hangup is still "how is it viable to...

    Carrying child in hunting pack

    Any pictures of that setup?? Were you using just a grab it or was there a bag attached to the frame and the grab it attached to the bag?

    Blazer certainly have always worked, but dang they buzz like baseball card in bicycle spokes.

    Joseph von Benedikt vs Formidilosus

    Why would you say no?? I'm not a 30 cal fan. Generally its more than needed for the task at hand.. BUT if you want to pay for me to go on a hunt with a 30 Cal... My article will go something like this.

    Carrying child in hunting pack

    Garbage might be an overstatement but they tend to have a lot less comfort built into them than our Exo, Kifaru, IA, or SG bags. I think one bag manufacturer rep told me that they don't want to have to go through all the certifications to slap "child carrier" on their bags. That said, my 3...

    Curious why so many Xmas reticle’s if everyone dials

    It is as accurate, its generally someones inability to conceptualize and actually put the dots where they belong. . I've shot enough matches where I had 2 -3 different targets on 1 stage and all i did was dial my closest range for and used the mil hash marks for the other 2 targets. I've cleaned...

    Curious why so many Xmas reticle’s if everyone dials

    It is faster and just as accurate. Not sure why you think it's bass akward. especially if you have someone calling your distance. All you need to do is glance at your forward mounted dope card take your holdover and pull the trigger. You never come out of shooting position
