    Montana Missouri River Breaks Elk

    That's good info, I may ditch the boat idea then. No sense trailering it 6 hours if it isn't really advantageous to do so.

    Montana Missouri River Breaks Elk

    I was lucky enough to draw a Rifle tag in the breaks this year. I've only hunted Elk on the west side of Montana and over the years I have learned the dates that I certainly prefer to hunt during Archery season. With that being said, what is everyone's favorite times to Elk hunt in Breaks...

    You like your truck camper shell for Hunting?

    This is an old thread, but I’ve got probably close to 100 nights in my truck so I figured id add my .02. I have a 6.5ft f150 leer standard height topper. I bought two cabela’s 72” cots and they fit great. I put a 4” memory foam pad on them and sleep like a baby. Pros: Hard sided, super...

    DIY Southeast Alaska Black Bear Hunt

    Idk, I'd disagree with you based on my research. Boat rentals are around 1k a day from what I can tell. A week of hunting and thats 6-7k of sunk cost. Gas in the pickup from Montana to trailer a boat up there and back would be around $600 which leaves about 6k in savings....unless I'm missing...

    DIY Southeast Alaska Black Bear Hunt

    Thats great to hear! How rough is the water from Prince Rupert if were to head north along the coastline towards the Southern point of the Peabody Mountains of Alaska? It seems like it would be fairly mellow since most of the water is shielded by the islands off of the coast of BC.

    DIY Southeast Alaska Black Bear Hunt

    I'm looking to do a Black Bear Hunt in SE Alaska Spring 2025. I live in Montana and I bought a boat (17 ft V bottom 90hp) this year so ideally I'd like to drive up with my boat and do a Coastal bear hunt around Juneau, Ketchikan, or even put in at Prince Rupert and drive North to AK. This seems...

    Spotter comparison: Leupold, Vortex, Swarovski 20-60x85mm

    I can’t say for sure, but I would assume it was the newest model razor being at the new scheels store in town

    Leupold glass clarity

    I think the VX3 would be great for your application. However, if you can save up a bit more and get the VX5 I would highly recommend doing so. I love my VX5 3-15x44 firedot!

    Spotter comparison: Leupold, Vortex, Swarovski 20-60x85mm

    I recently purchased a Leupold SX4 Spotting scope 20-60x85mm and wanted to add my .02 since there hasn't been a lot of discussion on Leupold Spotters that I can find. I tried the Swaro ATS, Leupold's SX4 and SX5, and the Vortex Razor all in 80-85mm bell at my local Scheels I was able to watch a...

    Thoughts on Leupold SX-5?

    I wanted to add my .02 since I just tried the SX4 and the SX5 spotters. At my local Scheels I was able to watch a herd of Elk at 2.5 miles with both spotters. Myself and the employee agreed that we liked the clarity and brightness of the SX4 better. It was an overcast day late in the afternoon...
