    What to look for E-Scouting

    Saved me a bunch of typing. I repeat… until your eyes go blurry! A one week trip to camp and hike in your area would teach you way WAY more. It might tell you to go e scout somewhere else.

    Moose hunting.

    Kenetrek mountain extremes have never leaked for me. But if I’m traveling north to the land of rain I’m wearing LaCrossy Burly boots. Burly Pro side zip to be exact.

    Feedback on backcountry elk loadout

    I’ll just say it. You are making a mistake. Unless you’re just really really into hiking and camping. If you are all about a realistic plan to hunt and kill elk, you need to rethink your strategy. I can’t think of good reason to go 7 miles into the backcountry. If you were hunting Colorado, you...

    Feedback on backcountry elk loadout

    Before you pack anything anywhere other than base camp go day hunt it from the truck and make sure you have a reason. If you pack in, set camp, take 2-3 days to find out the elk aren’t there, and another day to pack out your hunt is all but over. In other words confirm your hunt area before...

If it were me, I would absolutely drive out and...

    Mule deer Wyoming Options?

There are so many newbies in western hunting that don’t know a single thing. Look at them as student drivers. I could reply by saying, is it so hard to give...

    Elk Hide Help

    Exactly. If I had to guess, looking at the quality of that work, or the lack of it, I bet he completely destroyed the original cape and found a replacement and gave it a second crack. You wouldn’t be the first taxidermy customer to get an amount back with the original cape. It happens more...

    Elevation change to stop other hunters

    I’ve seen guys 20 miles in to the wilderness. I don’t care if you’re in a bar or on the mountain. Don’t ever assume no one is tougher than you. You should always put some kind of geographic barrier between you and the masses. It can be miles, it can be elevation, usually a combination of both...
