    Stealthcam or Browning

    Browning Strike Force Pro is one of the best cameras out there. Stealth Cam comes nowhere close to video and photo quality compared to the Browning’s. Stealth Cam comes with 3 preset settings for people who don’t know how to set up a camera. The Browning’s take maybe 2 min to set up and they...

    First European Mount

    I always boil mine then pressure wash them. Soak them in bleach for just a few hrs to help kill the bacteria that’s up inside the skull then take hair bleach and mix with peroxide to make a paste. Brush each coat on and let sit for an hour and hose off and repeat!! After 2 sometimes 3 coats...

    Staying warm while glassing ridgelines during Oct-Nov

    After all these years I’ve learned that it’s all about having WINDPROOF jacket and pants. If you layer properly, you shouldn’t get cold unless it’s below 10 degrees. Another key thing that helps are the adhesives body warmers that you can stick to your very first layer!!

    How are you attaching your vortex spotting scope caps?

    I bought a neoprene cover for my vortex and it has built in covers, so I don’t have to worry about the lense covers that came with the scope. It’s awesome!!

    How to stope rotting velvet ?

    I agree with Pods!! You can try putting it in the freezer but I think even if the remaining velvet dries, it will still smell rotten. You would prolly be better off stripping the velvet. If it’s a monster have fake velvet sprayed on, or you can always stain the horns and keep it hard horned...

    Sitka TIMBERLINE Pants? Are they worth the money?

    I’m looking to get a pair of Sitka Timberline pants cause I like how they have the knee pads and keep your butt dry if you sit on wet ground. For those of you who have them, are they worth the money? $229 is not cheap. Thanks
