    Trijicon Accupoint with the center dot and astigmatism?

    So I have a little bit of an astigmatism, but worse are a couple eye injuries to my right eye. For my bow sites red fiber optic is pretty bad, see a starburst / instead of a dot, green is a blurry starburst. Red dot style rifle sights are just massive starbursts no matter the color, however...

    3-9x40 enough for medium range antelope?

    My eyes are aging a bit, wondering who's using a 9 power for antelope. I don't have a problem with larger bodies animals but them lopes blend in quite well sometimes. I'll belly crawl to 500 where I'm very confident but in the perfect situation may consider stretching a little bit more but I'll...

    New fletching popping off

    New at this aside from just gluing on replacement vanes here and there. I fletched a dozen shafts with 2" blazer vanes, 3 with Gorilla Impact blue top super glue and 9 with Bohning Fletch-Tite Platinum. The Gorilla dried to a crusty mess so scraped it and will redo those. The 9 with Fletch-Tite...

    Reuse ring screws, and rings for that matter?

    I typically just mount a scope and that's it for the life of the rifle. I'm upgrading the scope on my wife's rifle for the second time and I'm curious how the screws handle being re-torqued and all that. Wondering if yall replace the screws if reusing rings or just roll with the originals? The...

    Help with Electrician Apprentice tools

    My Little man is 19 and he's working as an apprentice now, needs to buy himself some tools. I kinda wanted to surprise him and get him a set of something better than bottom of the barrel, but then I'm sure he'll develop preferences along the way so maybe best to hold off. I see a lot of nice...

    WTS Luxe Octopeak Tipi and accessories

    I received this in June '21 and set it up to seam seal it, didn't end up using it that year. Last year I used it on a duck trip just to say I used it and it worked as expected. It's not looking like I'll be using it this year and don't want to sit on it for another year, guess I'm getting old...

    Stupid poll: Which rifle?

    Stupid poll because it's 2am and I can't sleep, thinking of taking the deer rifle on a cow Elk hunt in October. 6.5 PRC: Rifle is 8lbs 9oz with 4-14x50 and shoots golf ball groups at 200. I've never really stretched it out but would work out dope if I were to take it. 300 WSM: Rifle is 7lbs...

    Sold Luxe 1.5 inner tents, summer and winter.

    I bought two 1.5's for the Octopeak, wanting to sell them before listing the Octopeak kit for sale because I may want to use it this fall, but if you happen to need everything we'll work out a price. I believe they'll fit the Hexpeak as well but don't quote me on that. The "summer" 1.5 inner...

    Three Ridges Gear, new Luxe distributor?

    I was gonna list my Octopeak for sale and googled it to see what the current price is, whole bunch of links to this Three Ridges place popped up. I'd heard rumors that the manufacturer pulled Luxe due to all the issues, seems like it may be true. All their stuff has the same markings "F8e"...

    OnX track, what am I doing wrong?

    Maybe @onX Hunt will answer but happy with any other replies as well. So when I start a track with OnX it tracks me all over the place, track works and looks great the whole time it's running. At the end of the day if I decide to save the track, it transforms from a nice detailed track of...

    Can anybody directly compare the Kuiu Strongfleece 280 to the Kutana Hybrid 3defx?

    I've done some searching here and general web search. I'm trying to talk myself out of spending money on the sale and want that 280, but I already have the Kutana Hybrid 3defx and I suspect they're fairly similar. Kuiu doesn't have the latter on their site anymore, guess it's gone, so can't...

    Sold Anybody want some First Lite Corrugate Guide pants?

    Size is Large Tall, never warn or washed but I did try them on. When I bought these I ended up switching preferences over to Kuiu stuff, too bad I didn't get a solid color then I'd be fine. I'd like to get $105 TYD but will be taking best offer on them if need be.

    Garmin Instinct Solar - battery issues

    Reaching out to see if anyone else has battery issue while waiting on a call back from support. I don't know if the watch is somehow enabling itself some features that are draining the battery but this is driving me nuts. Usually I get 3+ weeks on a charge, seems like more than that sometimes...

    El Coyote quilt on a Zenbivy light sheet?

    Curious if something like this is a possibility. Looks like the Zenbivy Light system has hooks or loops rather than zipper like their regular bed. The EC quilt for my size is a full 9oz lighter than the Zenbivy Light offering but I really like the idea of the sheet with the wings ZB offers...

    Help me decide scope options

    I'm hopelessly undecided, figured I'd let somebody else make up my mind. I have two rifles and two scopes. I don't shoot paper except to zero so just animals for this consideration. Rifle 1: Weatherby Vanguard 6.5 CM Rifle 2: Browning Hell's Canyon 300 WSM Scope 1: Leupold VX-L 3.5-10x50...

    WTS/WTT Spring Cleaning: First Lite Corrugate Guide pants

    Like new, never left the house size 34T. Really nice pants, just don't have anything in the same pattern so end up reaching for other pants, should've gotten a solid color... I'd be willing to trade for the same size in Dry Earth or maybe Conifer. $105 TYD Kryptek, I believe these are the...

    qSpine calculator check

    Wife needs a new set of arrows so I went ahead and paid for the app and plugged in all the info, this thing's coming back with a 600 and is showing even that to be almost too stiff, which strikes me awfully weak for her setup but maybe I'm just off. I figured maybe I could get some input here...

    Arrow measurement question with outserts - Easton 4mm Long Range

    Sorry for the rudimentary question. I'm planning to order a set of these arrows and need to measure nock valley to end of carbon, problem is I don't know how much of the arrow shaft the outsert covers up. For example if it covers 1" of the end of the shaft or 1/4" of the end that'll change my...
