    Dang…was hoping this was going to be in Colorado!

    True story. People get murdered every day and there are not rewards like that for them.

    Best or Favorite Bow EVER

    For me an 09 Bowtech Nitrous that is really a Diamond. I still have it and took a 5 point bull with it last fall. Have tried to replace it 3 times now but keep going back to it. Currently have a Bowtech Revolt X that is new to me and will likely hunt with it next year.

    Winter house heat setting?

    We leave ours at 63 but burn lodgepole and fir all winter. The furnace usually kicks on in the early morning and runs until the next fire is started. I combine the wood cutting in the early summer with camping and scouting trips. It is all cut and stacked by the time hunting season starts.

    Am I the only one who doesn’t use any gloves when I am gutting an animal out lol.

    Same here when I remember them. I need to just throw a pair in my game bags.

    MagnaCut Blades?

    I appreciate the feedback. @ Marbles- I will definitely check out the Lynx. I am not replacing my Havalon but would like to have a nicer knife than my EDC Kershaw or Gerber folders to help break down an animal. I generally use the Havalon for 90% of the work and my folder for the other. As I get...

    MagnaCut Blades?

    What are the pros and cons to a MagnaCut knife? I have used a Havalon for years and cannot count the animals that it has taken apart. I also cannot remember the last time that I broke a blade. I do use a folding Kershaw or Gerber for joints and backstraps. I have been thinking real hard on a MKC...

    Your Elk Hunting Rifle

    My elk rifle is my all around big game rifle in a 270 Winchester. It has worked great on elk, bear, wolf, antelope, whitetail, and mule deer. Use a good bullet and take good shots.

    Any good Molle revolver holsters?

    Interested to see what folks have to say. Have a Ivory Holster for a semi auto but there seems to be no options for six shooters.

    Getting Into Hunting, Want A Proper Pack (and other gear)

    I wouldn't recommend wearing 400 gram boots around the store. I started off with Walmart boots and a Jansport pack. You will figure things out as you go. You can save money on 2nd hand packs. Another pack to consider is sold at Sportsman's and that is Mystery Ranch. I have had good luck with two...

    blood stained game bags

    Rinse and spin and then a normal wash. Make sure to get it done when the wife isn't around!

    2 blades vs 4 blades for shooting at a distance

    Big fan of the Magnus Stingers from 5 to 74 yards on a combo of 10 mule deer and elk. Besides flying true they are a great company with awesome service.
