    Educational Reading Material

    I'm new to mule deer hunting. Since I don't have the opportunity to spend as much time as I would like in the mountains observing mule deer, like others I have been trying to learn as much as I can through online sources, books and e-scouting. I'm happy for an suggestions on sources but my main...

    Puffy Pant vs Ski (Insulated) Pant

    Is there a real difference between ski pants and puffy pants. Ski pants look less insulated and more "streamlined" but would a ski pant work for glassing on a late season hunt? Thanks,

    Rental - Chevy Suburban vs Ram 1500

    I'm looking to rent one of these trucks for a solo hunt this October in NE UTAH. Since it's a rental both trucks will be stock. I'll probably spend most of my time hunting from a base camp so the Suburban is appealing since I can haul a lot in the back and potentially just camp out in the back...

    Mystery Ranch Guide Light MT Frame belt swap

    I bought a Guide Light MT frame with an XL belt a few months ago and have been using it to get in shape by carrying loads on hikes and on the treadmill. Well I guess its been working because I think I need to drop down to a large belt. I really like the 5-pcs belt on the MT frame, but the only...

    MR Metcalf vs Beartooth

    I'm looking to get my first high end pack for my first backcountry hunt. I've been doing a lot of research but I'm stuck on these two packs. I know the Beartooth has some improvements to MRs last generation of packs, but if I can get a Metcalf for $370 and a Beartooth for $550, is the Beartooth...
