    Hunting Supressed

    I'm about to buy a hunting rifle with the intention of adding a 7" can. Ive been debating if I should go the folding stock route, but this thread seems to answer that question. For a non-folding option, I was thinking something along the lines of a Weatherby Accumark Elite. For a folding...

    Swarovski NL Pure Binoculars?

    12x42 is a bit of a funny animal. For that power, I'd like to see a larger objective. Then again, I think 12's in general are a bit of an odd in-between-er. I would love to see these in a 15x56.

    Swarovski NL Pure Binoculars?

    I really love my 8.5x42 EL's... Incredible clarity and great field of view. but from the looks of the specs the 10x42 NL's will have the same field of view as my 8.5's. Wow.

    How much momentum needed for elk?

    I killed my elk last year with my Hoyt Carbon Defiant Turbo, 63#, 30" draw, 520 gr arrow, and a grim reaper 2", 3 blade mechanical. I think my speed is around 275-278fps. It absolutely devastated my elk. The arrow nicked the leg bone, went through the heart and zipped out the other side...

    Western tag/lottery systems for dummies...Im the dummy

    If you're putting in for more than a state or two, I think getting a gohunt.com membership will pay for itself. and you will no longer need to research on the state websites. Just getting the email reminders of draw deadlines is worth it, and they're just the icing on the cake. After using...

    Smoker

    I have one of those masterbuilt kegerator-sized smokers. I bought it years ago, but I hardly ever use it. I've been thinking of getting rid of it. I usually end up using my Traeger instead. The pellet grill is a lot more versatile. I use it all the time for day-to-day smoking/baking/etc...

    Kuiu Attack Pro Pants

    I'm definitely NOT a Kuiu fan boy, but I think their pants are the best available right now. I own the FL Corrugate and really dislike everything about them. They are less breathable than even the Kuiu Chinook (which is saying something, since the Chinooks are for much colder weather). The...

    Need bag advice for tall guy!

    To a degree, if you order a longer quilt. And mainly if you're a stomach sleeper. If you sleep on your back, you might want to look at their hood which tucks into the quilt: https://enlightenedequipment.com/hoodlum/ I just wear my knit hat.

    Need bag advice for tall guy!

    Not exactly answering your question, but this is one option to solve your problem: switch to a quilt... I was skeptical at first, but I'm really glad I made the switch. Overall I think they are just a better, more versatile design that bags. They are lighter, more comfortable and you can use...

    Say what you will about Putin...

    ...but he does have good taste in jackets. I wonder if he agrees with Sitka's stance on public lands. Vacationing like a 'real' man: Photos from Putin's macho holiday seen as part of re-election bid - World - CBC News

    What's broken?

    I've had and broken 2 Buck 110's. In fairness they didn't die from light use. I grew up on a ranch, I had a knife on my hip at all times. When you don't have the right tool with you, the tool you do have gets used. After going through a few folders I switched to a Buck Vanguard with rubber...

    What's broken?

    Every folding knife I've ever owned. except maybe havalon, but that doesn't really count since their blades break before the handle/hinge.

    onX hunt update

    Correct. (I just scoured the new web & android apps to confirm, and I don't see anything. I know in the old versions it was not possible). Its a pretty sketchy move by them. I'm paying for 'elite', so this pisses me off quite a bit. Until they change their policy, I'll mainly my tracks &...
