    First timer

    New resident to Oregon, and have also never hunted a turkey. Thinking about getting the Sports pak which includes a tag for the spring bird, and seeking some advice First question is about hunting them on my own property. We live on a private road and everyone has several acres of land, over 12...

    What year was your Ram? and what's the Silverado not doing for ya?

    Truck Shopping

    Pretty well said. I was trying to understand how the "reliability" alone measured up to other areas where the Tundra seems to be lacking. I'm barely leaning towards Chevy right now. Haven't ever considered Dodge myself, and I'm not sure why. Never had anyone close to me with any ownership...

    Truck Shopping

    Now that you mention all the electronic stuff, it's bringing back some memories. I had an '03 Trailblazer that started having all kinds of fuel and fan issues (can't remember specifics) but some sensor wasn't mixing air and fuel at the correct ratio? Idk. All started going bad just over 100k...

    Truck Shopping

    What is it you have against the Chevy? Comparing payload and towing and price to the Tundra is coming up all Chevy for the '21 models. But obviously that isn't going to cover longevity.

    Truck Shopping

    Nothing at the moment for hauling, but we've discussed the possibility of a smaller camper in the future. Right now it'l be primarily used for work around my property and handling the mountains in this area while out hunting - not huge but some steeper climbs. I'm personally not a big gear-head...

    Truck Shopping

    I've been building a Tundra and a Silverado on their websites today (getting everything I'd possibly want) to check out pricing and performance, with the Chevy coming out a fair bit less expensive with quite a bit more flexibility in packages. Of course, this won't tell you which is going to be...

    Truck Shopping

    I'm not running out the door tomorrow to buy, fortunately. It'll probably be May-June before I'm walking on the lot to be serious, but wanted to start paying attention to makes and models and corresponding price tags to know what might be overpriced. I'm definitely considering older model years...

    My buddy has said the same thing about the cab size, but overall he's been pretty happy with the use he's gotten out of it. Going to have to take a good look at the Tundra. What do you know about the slightly older models compared to the newer ones? He's also mentioned the newer Tacomas aren't...

    Truck Shopping

    I'm open to something a little bit older, but just not expecting to find any with low use or low mileage. I'm all for saving money.

    How do you consider this against the Tacoma? I have a buddy who loves his Tacoma. I'm surprised to hear so many seeing such a gap between Toyota and anyone else, especially Chevy or Ford

    Truck Shopping

    I moved out to Oregon from Kentucky this past year, bringing my 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee out knowing I'd be looking to upgrade in a matter of time. Starting to shop now and would like to keep to 2019 or newer models. I've always been partial to Chevy, but also considering Ford and Toyota...

    Southern Oregon

    Just moved to the area a month ago, and already been sneaking out for a few quick scouting hikes. Not entirely sure if I'll be going after a deer this fall or not, since I'll still be paying NR fees, but hoping to find someone hunting blacktail and elk around Medford that is open to having an...

    Help with OnX MVUM

    This one is accessed by the purple highlighted road, and the two roads it forks into both had gates blocking access. I've been in other areas where this same road marking was an accessible road, so it left me confused.

    Help with OnX MVUM

    This very well might have been a questionable road to come in on, but there were no signs indicating it was a private drive or private property until the very point on the map where the BLM line is drawn.

    Help with OnX MVUM

    Recently started having the opportunity to scout out some of the areas I've been checking out on OnX over the past few months. I'm having a fair bit of trouble being able to identify which roads or trails are entirely accessible vs those that are gated or posted as private property. I've only...

    Backpack Shootout - 9 Backpacks Go HEAD to HEAD ***Updated 8/5/2020***

    Really looking forward to the review, too. I've been perusing the SO - Kifaru - EXO - SG sites today trying to run my own objective analysis just from the numbers, but also trying to consider bag features makes that silly to an extent. I see a lot of similarities between the SO and SG but like...

    E-scouting blacktail S. Oregon

    I'm pretty open to both archery and rifle hunts. The archery seems so much more challenging and exciting, whereas the rifle hunts seem more likely to bring home meat. I actually just moved to Oregon this past week, so it's pretty damn satisfying to have the opportunity to walk around these areas...

    Convince me- smartwatch

    Do any of these watches pair with OnX by chance? I'm like OP - don't wear a watch but think I would like to start if I can find the right features so I don't have to keep my phone in my pocket or in my hand so much. If I don't have to have my phone at all, that's a huge plus. Primarily hoping to...

    Whereabouts are you? And what units are you planning on hunting?
