    WTS Carter Two-shot release

    Trying to clean out the release drawer-- I've got a Carter Two-shot release. I tried it for about half a season and went back to my thumb release. Great release, extremely crisp, zero travel, just isn't working for me as well as the thumb button. I have modified the hook area by chamfering a...

    First rifle: Tikka T3x CTR vs Lite (6.5CM)

    I've been a bowhunter in the PNW for the last decade or so, which a focus on wilderness/backpacking style hunting. I've recently got the bug to start shooting a rifle with the intent of eventually hunting with it. I am a good shooter with my bow (both trad and compound) and I have a training...

    Archery optics (OR late season)

    I've heard that glassing recent cuts can be good in the November late season in Oregon. But I've also heard that still hunting or out of the stands is the most effective. This will be my first year targeting blacktails in the rut. I'm curious what optics you all are running and what your...

    What binos to pair with 9x32?

    I’m going in to my sixth year bowhunting in Oregon (mostly elk but also targeting late season blacktail now). I’ve been using the Pentax DCF 9x32 my dad bought me back then and haven’t really considered upgrading until this year. They are good binos, but I’m wondering what I might be missing but...

    Vented propane vs. wood stoves

    I know this topic has been discussed before but there doesn't appear to be any form of consensus (surprise!) on what the best option is to heat a wall/outfitter style tent. People with propane setups seem to love them, people with wood stoves would never give them up. For clarification I am...

    Is anyone using the Avail on an Xcurve as a primary setup?

    I need a new daypack (or 1-nighter) and would love the option to put it on the Xcurve for load hauling capability or use the internal frame for scouting/lighter trips. Curious how it loads/handles on the Xcurve vs. the internal suspension. I read a few older threads but there wasn't much...

    SG Solo with lid vs Archer 6200 in bivy mode?

    Has anyone run both of these packs? I'm finding that my needs are probably at the larger end of the Solo (5-7 day backpack hunts), or at the smaller end of the 6200 (in bivy mode). I'm not one who needs a tremendous amount of organization, but some is nice to have to cut down on the number of...

    My feet do not agree with one another

    Last year I bought a pair of Lowa Tibets for a September archery hunt. They worked relatively well, however I had a much thicker sock than I needed on that trip and dealt with some extra heat in the boot because of it. And they were heavier than what I am used to (I generally backpack in tennis...
