    Let’s see your bird vests.

    I’ve got a final rise. Versatile for dog training to chukar hunting. Holds enough water for me and the dog plus snacks and gear. I used previous vests that had the weight on the shoulders and was happy to use a pack that focused the weight on my hips. I like aimlessly wondering so a one or two...

    Electrolyte Options

    I would recommend checking out a company called fluid sports nutrition, https://store.livefluid.com/. They are based towards more endurance sports (distance running, triathlons, etc). I have enjoyed the flavors, not too sweet and just right. I recommend the passion fruit tea (with caffeine)...

    Stove

    Whisperlite International any day of the year. It runs on multiple types of fuel, multiple sized refillable containers, easy to disassemble and fix in the field, works beautifully in wind and freezing temperatures. You can bring empty canisters on international flights, and fill them at a gas...

    Stomach Pain

    I didn't see him move for 5 minutes, thought the round had broke his back. I took my eyes off him for perhaps 2 minutes when he got up, never saw him again though. I am shooting 270, Barnes Vor-tx 130 grain ( California). Should have done the trick, next time I will be giving him 15+ and...

    Stomach Pain

    I had a buck walk out into shooting distance 313 yards from where I was glassing. I adjusted 3.5 MOA, placed the cross hairs mid shoulder and squeezed off a round. He dropped like a sack of potatoes, I chambered another round and watched for a few more minutes before packing up my things to...

    First load hauling pack. Complete MR pack or SG minimalist?

    I would say go with the SG, it gets you a frame and you can ad bags in the future. There is a good deal on a full set up by SG in the classifieds. The xcurve compares, in my opinion, to backpacking bags. Only downside I find is the lack of pockets on the hip belts, that being said you can add...

    Tooth Paste Tube Replacement

    Honestly I had left over chapstick tubes from making chapstick with bees wax from my bees and I had no small containers of tooth paste before I went backpacking this weekend. So I saw the empty box on my counter and thought that will work. It worked, so I thought I would share my weirdly found...

    Tooth Paste Tube Replacement

    Recently discovered that an empty chapstick Vial works pretty well for 4/5 days worth of toothpaste for the back county. I used a clear tube so I can monitor how much toothpaste is left and it worked quite well. A little unconventional and a small travel sized container of toothpaste works...

    Backpacking packs VS Hunting specific pack

    So I pulled the trigger on a lightly used Stone Glacier pack from a member on this forum. I got an Xcurve Frame and a Solo bag. It came the day I was leaving for a short backpacking trip so I repacked my gear into the pack to see how it felt. It was actually quite comfortable with a light load...
