    Wyoming Commissioner Tag

    Curious- If you won a commissioner tag in WY what unit would you settle on? Would you wait for a late season migration hunt? An early season archery? Or focus on a unit with good resident population and stretch the hunt over archery and rifle? PM would be best so as not to “spot burn” a max...

    Recommendations for Tripod in $300-$500 range?

    Looking for a new tripod but can’t break the bank on it. Light(ish) weight but durable enough for a 65mm spotter. Would love to go with outdoorsman but kids and diapers aren’t cheap. Thanks!

    Suggestion for caribou euro mount hanger

    Want to finally put my skull on the wall but the first hanger I bought was too small. Any suggestions on a specific brand/model? It’s not a giant caribou but I need to get it hung up in the living room before the old lady changes her mind.

    Thinnest Merino Socks (Crispi Shrinkage)

    Two of 3 pairs of crispi’s I’ve owned have shrunk a full half size. Fool me once, yadda yadda. But I think I can get away with one of my pairs still fitting decently with extremely thin socks. I’m very partial to darn tough but don’t know if they make a super thin line? Both my Colorado’s and...

    Baca NWR

    Has anybody put in for the Baca NWR rifle draws? I was selected for 11/7-11/11. I spent a lot of time in the area (unsuccessfully) sheep hunting this year. I had never heard of the draw before this fall, figured I'd apply since I didn't get out for archery season. Wife would’ve killed me being...

    Stone Glacier Frames

    Anybody have experience with both SG packs and Kifaru that can tell me how durable/comfortable a heavy load is in the SG compared to Kifaru? I know that Kifaru is built like a tank and going to hold 100lb+ very well.

    Sitka Apex Pants

    Anybody have experience with these- good or bad? Saw some sizing issues on sitkas website but I figure I’ll try to find some locally to try before ordering. Haven’t had that issue personally with Sitka in the past.

    Glass Question

    I’m more than likely going to be hunting solo for my sheep tag in august. It’s my first sheep hunt so I’m trying to dial in all my gear. More than likely looking at anywhere between 4-7 mile pack in with around 4k in elevation gain along the way. I’ve got the option to take a Meopta Meopro...

    One Piece of Gear You Wish You Had (or glad you brought) On Your Hunt

    Trying to dial in my pack for august. I’ve got all the essentials but what’s one thing you either wish you had or were glad you had? Might be something generally overlooked or you might’ve thought was too heavy but grateful you brought. Strongly considering adding the helinox chair. Even if...

    Lightweight Tripod

    Looking for any advice/suggestions on picking up a lightweight tripod for my spotter/binos for sheep hunt this fall. The Outdoorsman tripod I use is a bit too bulky for this hunt. Would like to keep it under $500. Thanks for looking.

    Crispi Colorado vs Summit

    Looking for a new pair of boots for a sheep hunt this fall. I’ve had nothing but good luck with the Crispi’s I’ve owned in the past. Wondering if anybody has experience with either (or both) boot. I’ve only used their leather boots (Nevada and Wildrock) so either of these would be new to me in...

    My Puppy Ate My Caribou Skull

    This is purely a venting post. While waiting for my hook to come in to hang my euro mount, I had stored the skull on the bed in our guest room. My wife went in to do some computer work and didn’t shut the door when she was done. I walked down from putting the kids to bed and my hunting pup...

    Renfro Outfitter Reviews

    I’ve seen a few older threads on forums but wondering if anybody has used Renfro for drop camps in recent years. How was the hunt and experience overall? Cousin and I are looking to do a moose hunt and saw the have an option where they provide camp setup. Obviously Renfro’s associates speak very...

    Do you unstring your recurve or not?

    Growing up I was always told to unstring by bow after use. I’ve got a Satori that I’ve been shooting for a few years now. If I know I’m not going to shoot it for an extended time I’ll take it down but is there any real reason to unstring it if I plan to shoot just about every day? I know with...
