    NM Archery Elk Advice Needed

    Yeah just goes to show you have to be ready for anything. I always have everything needed. At the very least it's in the truck. It's never too far to go get it if needed. I usually have 2 of everything for the most part. I don't pack 2 of everything in obviously but I have a backup plan.

    Pack that has performed well for you in the Backcountry?

    Oh man......Badlands is the reason I bought a Kifaru. Now that the new Ark Frame is out, I give it my recommendation

    NM Archery Elk Advice Needed

    I typically take a rain jacket and I have a tarp in my pack that only takes a minute to deploy with my trekking poles if it gets too rainy. Heck I've even left the rain jacket at the truck and only used my tarp as well on occasion. If you have an InReach, you can have someone at home watching...

    NM Archery Elk Advice Needed

    Without knowing where you're hunting, id prepare for it being dry, which means have lots of water at the truck, and if your packing in, take lots of water. I'd show up a few days early to scout if time is limited. Especially if you have to hump water into the backcountry. Id make a couple...

    How did you pick your pack?

    It was a no brainer for me. When i chose my first Kifaru in 2013, it was because while packing my first bull quarter out of the Gila Wilderness, one of the shoulder straps on my made in China Badlands tore loose making for some miserable trips out. I vowed to never let anything like that happen...

    Ark vs Duplex, a comparison review

    Ok so with both my old packs, the Tactical and the Duplex UL. The first thing i noticed was the fit of the Ark. Perfect fit comparatively speaking. The old packs, I had to have a small belt because the medium belt would bottom out and not be tight enough. The small belt was a pain in the azz...

    What do y'all do with meat when bouncing around out west?

    If you don’t want to have to worry about it, take it to a butcher or meat locker where you’ll be hunting elk and pick it up after they butcher a bear and elk for you. You’re welcome 😉🏹🏹🏹

    Ark vs Duplex, a comparison review

    Alright, alright already. When I have a bit of time I will give y'all my thoughts and what I like about it. So far there is nothing I don't like about it. I'll leave you with this for those who can relate. An old Harley sportster, a newer Harley Heritage, and a brand new Street Glide CVO ST. Its...

    Ark vs Duplex, a comparison review

    You got it all wrong man. I’m a solo hunter for the most part who has figured it out on my own thru my own trial and error without having to ride ”coat strings” lol. But i will say this, the Ark is the shiz and for those who don’t have one and don’t believe that, i say, buy the pack and you...

    Arrows

    when i first started bowhunting in 2008, i simply followed the Easton Arrow Chart to choose what it said was the correct spine arrow for my draw length and all that other stuff and low and behold, out of a well tuned bow, which can’t be stated enough, my arrows fly as they should with a fixed...
