    Pouch for Backpack Hip belt to carry pistol?

    My daughter is going on an extended, solo backpacking trip. I have convinced her to carry a gun with her. I'm looking for a pouch that will attach to the hip belt of her backpack. I've seen a lot of them that close with a zipper. I'd prefer one that closes with velcro or magnets. Any...

    My new favorite wool pants

    I like wool. It has great temperature regulation in both hot and cold climates, and tends to keep me comfortable across a broader range of temperatures than synthetics. There are quite a few good wool options for base layers and torso. (My favorites are Voormi's amazing wool soft shell...

    Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep behavior

    Going on a Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep hunt in Colorado this fall. Problem is that I don't know much about sheep behavior. I've seen tons of books on elk and deer. Tons of information on what they eat, their migratory patterns, where they go day and night, etc. Not so much information on...

    Strange Super Strong Tape Putty Stuff: Braeon

    I just saw this (and had to order some.) It's a tape-like material that you can mold and shape and is super strong. Looks pretty useful. Don't think I will take it backpacking, but will definitely keep a roll of it in my truck. Videos - BRAEON [Braeon-Official] World's Strongest and...

    My favorite winter hat

    I was thinking about my favorite pieces of clothing. Most of my clothing choices would be familiar to most folks on this forum, as it tends to be a mix of Firstlite, Sitka, etc. I do love Voormi wool gear, which is lesser known, but seems to be gaining traction. I'd be willing to bet...

    Where to buy a Gaiter Lace Hook?

    Anyone know where I can buy a lace hook for gaiters? I've been searching Amazon and other places. Have found lace hooks for lacing up boots. I'm looking for a large, plastic hook to hold down the fronts of gaiters. Anyone know of a good source of plastic hardware that would sell lace...

    Sig Kilo 2400 ABS: Accounting for Temp/Pressure in your profiles?

    bought a Sig Kilo 2400 ABS Setting up my gun profiles. As far as I can tell, there is no way to input what the environmental factors were when you zeroed the rifle. The app doesn't know if your 100 yard zero was at sea level or 10,000 feet. If the app doesn't have your zero environmental...

    Black Light, UV and Clothing

    I've been reading about how optical brighteners reflect UV and make you easier for a deer or elk to spot. In states where orange is mandated, I typically don't wear camo on top. I just wear bright orange clothing (most of it Patagonia brand stuff) on my torso. The whole UV thing got me...

    Anyone successfully eaten Javelina?

    Online, I've seen conflicting information on eating Javelina. Some folks say it's inedible. Others say that as long as you are careful and don't get any of the musk from the scent gland on your meat, that it's fine (tasty even.) Assuming I get one, I'm going to use several pair of gloves...

    "Lightweight" backpack hunting is an exercise in frustration. Total weight?

    "Lightweight" backpack hunting is an exercise in frustration. Total weight? I've been an ultralight backpacker and alpine climber a lot longer than I've been a hunter. I'm used to really light packs. However, the longer I hunt, the harder it is for me to keep my carry weight low. Even...

    Favorite Solid non-lead Bullet?

    I am a Berger cultist. Pretty much shoot only Bergers (after trying most everything else.) However, my wife and kids refuse to eat meat shot with lead bullets. So, I'm switching to solid copper bullets for hunting. I shoot 300 Win Mag for elk, and 6.5 Creedmoore for deer. Currently...

    Recommendations on a 8x32 Bino

    Looking to get a 8x32 bino. Right now, I'm looking at three options: Swaro EL Zeiss Victory T FL Meopta Meostar I'm guessing that I will ultimately be happy with whichever one I get. But, if anyone owns or has used any of these and has some personal insights, I would appreciate them.

    Need help analyzing Google Earth Image. Where would you hunt?

    Looking for advice from the Rokslide collective. Heading for an Idaho deer hunt. Week of September 25th. Picked out some wilderness land, most of it trail-less and not too close to roads. Mountains are not super high (ridgelines are around 7000 feet, give or take.) Only one hiking trail in...

    Zip off Base Layer Bottoms? (like Kuiu)

    I really like the concept of the Kuiu zip off merino wool bottoms. Nice to be able to put on and take off long john bottoms without having to take off your boots. Sadly, I can not fit into the Kuiu bottoms. XL (their largest size) fits in the waist, but doesn't even begin to fit in my...
