    Is the western hunting bubble bursting? (Or at least shrinking?)

    Absolutely not! Just got back from CO 4th rifle hunt and saw more people than I ever have. Same with a 0 Pt unit in Oregon, people everywhere and new outfitter camps. I was shocked.

    Mathews Cam Spacing/Lean

    I am in Central Oregon. I actually have a good shop near me, they just seem to have one good tech and the other guys are hesitant to do anything. I did shoot paper and getting a very consistent left tear. I have checked for and ruled out fletching contact, and I believe I shoot with minimal...

    Mathews Cam Spacing/Lean

    Thank you for the response! No, I have not shot broadheads. After about 150 shots I took it back into the shop and they adjusted the timing. I shot some paper and was getting consistently bad tears. The said paper tuning isn't that important and it was probably a grip issue. Unfortunately I...

    Mathews Cam Spacing/Lean

    Purchased a used Mathews V3X 33 this spring, and had a new string and rest installed at a local shop. Was told the bow was good to go. I quickly noticed the upper cam was so far to the right that the switchweight mod stop was barely making contact with cable, in fact, the screw (somewhat sharp...

    Gold Tip Pierce LRT Components

    It took a long time for the new Gold Tip LRT arrows to finally arrive. I was most excited to see the “upgraded” component system. On Lancaster it says “stainless steel” but they appear to be a flimsy aluminum half out with a small stainless steel collar (disappointing as I was hoping it was an...

    Chevy Equinox

    I would stay clear. Unless they've changed. Had a 2017 and at 90,000 miles it blew a main gasket of some sort and the engine was toast. Also had a friend with a 2015 and it had horrible oil leakage and blew up. Not good. Also had a 2011 chevy equinox that went through 2 transmissions in 2 years...

    Don't count out Zoleo! Mine has been amazing.

    Platypus Gravity Works filter question

    I run the Platypus gravity works filter system and I just purchased my third new filter. I never used this one, it's still in the package but it ended up in freezing temps in my storage unit. My question may be silly, but can an un-used filter be damaged by freezing? It's never been wet so I'm...

    Is 308 good enough

    The reason I went .308 is that it's readily available and shooting more/being accurate is always the most important thing for me. My buddy and I both took cow elk in colorado this year at 150 and 250 yards. Both lung shots, both down in seconds. we always try to get as close as possible, but I...

    Crispi Boots Fit?

    I own the Lapponia and Altitude. I much prefer the Altitude and it's my all-time favorite boot. I found both boots are true to size. I always toss the crappy stock insoles and find something better and fine-tune volume. I have a narrow foot and they work well.

    Thinnest Merino Socks (Crispi Shrinkage)

    I found some very thin smartwool socks that lasted me years. Scheels, Cabelas etc have a huge amount of socks...
