    Knives

    I have been using an Outdoor Edge replaceable for separating the legs and neck and a Havalon for skinning and deboning and they have worked great for me. Cheap, lightweight and very sharp blades.

    Mid-size SUV or wagon options

    I have a Subaru Outback with the 3.6r and it has plenty of power. I use it for hunting, fishing and camping and it gets me way more places than it should. It ends up getting way more use than my F250 does.

    What are people using in the ways of head lamps for backpack hunting?

    I have had great luck with my Fenix HM65r. It is nice having the 1400 lumens if I need it and its nice to be able to just plug it in to recharge.

    Best binoculars around 1k?

    I did a bunch of research when I was looking and settled on Kowa Genesis 10.5x44’s. They were a huge upgrade from my Nikon Monarch 5’s and I have been super happy with them. Talk to Doug at Cameraland.

    Brand specific gift card or Visa gift card

    He has an old Badlands 2200 and he has never looked into new packs so he does not have anything picked out. I was going to buy him an EXO gift card but maybe I will go with a Visa card and tell him to spend it on a new quality pack. Thanks everyone.

    2024 Wyoming Bighorns hunt

    I drew 39-9 a couple years ago and can give you some really good starting points if needed. Odds are, I will not draw the tag again in the next 15 years.

    Montana Spring bear

    My brother and I spent the weekend in the Great Bear Wilderness area. We saw more grizzlies than black bears. I had my crosshairs on a dandy but couldn’t get the shot off on time. It was fairly smoky and tons of ticks. We got into the bears around 5000’. Good times.

    Optics During Archery Elk

    If you are planning on doing a bunch of glassing then I would bring bino’s and a tripod. I would take a look at the Kowa Genesis 10.5x44 binoculars. Really nice glass and you can buy them for under $1k.

    Mans best friend - shooting vs euthanasia

    I just went thru this with my best buddy and I had him put down at the vet. It was very peaceful and I was able to hold him until his last breath. It is amazing how attached I was to him and miss I him daily.

    Good Gas Mileage Hunting Vehicle

    I have taken my 04 Outback 3.0 places that it should not be able to go. It has plenty of room for me to lay down the back seats and sleep in it when I want to. I have about 310000 miles on it now and it still averages approx 25mpg. Great car if you can get over the fact it's a granola eater car.

    I have an 04 Outback with the 3.0 that has 310000 and still going strong. Starting to leak a little oil but I usually just top it off once it starts sounding like a diesel. Last time I added oil it took approx 4.5 quarts but I had not popped the hood in over 17000 miles. I always use Mobil 1...
