    Kodiak canvas lodge tent

    I was in the market for a wall tent and was able to get a good deal through a private dealer for this tent. I know it’s not a Montana canvas or a Davis tent but these Kodiak tents have really good reviews from what I’ve researched. I’ve got 2 deer hunts and 2 elk hunts this year and I’ll be...

Within the first few miles I was getting some serious hotspots on the back of my heels when I was going up hill, but figured I’d tape up my heels before wearing them until...

    Swaro 85mm or 95mm ? ATX or STS

    The time has finally come to start looking for a Swarovski spotter. I’m mainly leaning towards the ATX model paired with a 85mm or the 95mm.

    Ollin digiscope review

    I picked up a Ollin digiscope last weekend at the western hunting expo. After a year of battling with my phone skope I decided I wanted to try a system that uses magnets in hopes it makes it a lot easier to set up my phone on my spotting scope. It retails for $175 online but I was able to pick...

    Christensen arms sub MOA ?

    Back in December I picked up a Christensen arms mesa chambered in 6.5 prc, but due to the ammo shortage this is the first week I've had enough ammo to break in the barrel and sight it in. After the barrel break in I started to sight it in at 100 yards and see how it would group. I was very...
