    Who Has Gassed Rats / Voles or Other Underground Pests?

    I use the gopher hawk and have killed alot of gophers. Don't use poison if you have dogs.

    Durston X-Mid Pro 1p DCF Tent

    After around 20 nights in the 1 person my brief thoughts are: The durston poles are great. The 1p is big enough for me and gear but I would take a hard look at the 2p for the extra space, to escape condensation, and more space to find a level spot for sleeping pad. Great in warm and mild...

    Opinions on Tikka T3X vertical grip accessory

    I have smaller hands and I didnt like the vertical grip at all. Didn't improve my shooting and made the rifle harder to hand hold while hiking.

    Sitka Grindstone Jacket

    The fabric is super loud, like wearing sand paper. I returned mine.

    Outdoorsman pricing

    Made in the USA, great warranty, great customer service, percision manufacturing, inflation, designed for hunting and not camera gear. If you don't want to pay the price then buy a Chinese knockoff. Or wait for a used one in the classifieds.

    Tikka recoil

    My tikka t3x superlite in 6.5cm with a limbsaver pad has light recoil and is a pleasure to shoot 30+ rounds in one range visit. The t3x lite in 30-06 with limbsaver pad is the exact opposite, after 6 rounds I'm ready to put it back in the case and keep shooting the 6.5.

    Wilderness Ridge Llamas Tent

    For that price I would be afraid to leave the tent unattended, especially at a trail head or car camp.

    Durston X-Mid Pro 1p DCF Tent

    Dan, instead of using trekking poles, is it possible to use a cut to length wood stick, maybe with some sort of protective cap/cover on the stick end to protect the tent pocket corner?

    Durston X-Mid Pro 1p DCF Tent

    I choose the 1P because the footprint is smaller and it will be easier to find a level spot, and the vestibules are large enough for a backpack and rifle. Also if I have another person sharing a tent then I would bring my 3P nemo dagger that weighs 4.5 pounds and split the weight.

    Swarovski NL Pure Binocular

    I'm considering the 8x32's but don't want to use the forehead rest. For the 8x32's is anyone using the headrest? How much of an improvement is it?

    Fierce Firearms Disaster

    Fierce is welcome to reply to the thread and tell their side. Since they have not responded I suspect they won't admit their failures and don't care about losing a couple of orders. Fierce lost my business, new and used.

    In Texas you can't break down the deer beyond 4 quarters with bones intact plus two backstraps until you are at your "final destination" which is hunters permanent residence or processing facility. For out of state hunters who dont use a processor and go from hunting location to airport, good...

    RIT Dyeing Sitka Fanatic White to Brown

    Lessons Learned The dye is only $5 a bottle at walmart if its in stock. I used the entire bottle of brown and ¼ of green. Hit the large white areas at least three times. I only coated them once or twice. Dont worry at all if you dye the other colored areas, the dye barely colors the browns and...

    RIT Dyeing Sitka Fanatic White to Brown

    Results: Results were good and close to the dark tan of subalpine on the non fleece parts and results were ok on the fleece parts. I tagged out in November so I wont be able to hunt in the dyed suit until next year. Note that in the pics, the stratus pants, subalpine neck warmer, and realtree...

    RIT Dyeing Sitka Fanatic White to Brown

    My process: Wait for a weekend the wife is out of town. Start drinking twelve pack. Take before pics (I forgot) Prep the countertop. The dyed fabric makes a big mess when moving the jacket or bibs around. In a small pot boil ½ cup water, turn down to a very low simmer, then add 5 tablespoons...
