    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    While I was writing my reply, he was the exact guy I thought of when burn out crossed my mind. I think if most guys spent as much time as he did doing what he does, they burn right out and probably give up the lifestyle for something with easier reward.

    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    From my perspective, it seems the guys that kill big deer (170+ with 200+ mixed in fairly often compared to a other hunters), they spend all there time on the same species, or at least 90% of their time. I’m sure hunting other species helps a little bit, and maybe you could get to be a really...

    Anyone add a shapeable bar to marsupial gear harness?

    I soaked my harness then put in two pieces of pipe that were bigger than the binos. Left them in the harness until it dried, and then the binos slid in and out great.

    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    Great response! I just had my second last week. With my first, I’ve involved him in almost everything hunting related I can. Mom has no interest, and that’s okay. She enjoys the outdoors in other ways, so I can still do some scouting while spending time with them. On the business end, you...

    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    Thanks for responding!! Do you try to meet people while you’re out hunting in those areas, or just if you happen to run into someone? Are you offering anything in return (gifts, info, taking them out to dinner, etc) that opens them more?

    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    Some really good nuggets in these responses so far. I really appreciate you guys all giving your 2 cents. I’m picking up on a common thread from most of you, and that’s time. Time in the field during the hunt, and number of times you can go back to the unit year after year. Another question...

    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    This is a question for the guys that get it done on 170+, mature type bucks year in and year out. @robby denning, I’m talking to you and the guys you talk about on the podcast and your books (Not Really Born a Hunter, Scotty, Dioni, Jordan, etc, etc), as well as any other guys doing what you...

    I have a few strategy questions about a central Idaho Deer unit.

    I’m from Idaho and fairly familiar with most of the southern part of the state, although I grew up hunting the eastern edge of south central Idaho, pm me and I’m happy to chat.

    Bino harness discomfort

    I have really bad shoulders (3 surgeries on my right and 1 on my left). My marsupial used to really hurt my shoulders after a long day of hunting (had same issues with previous harnesses too, not just marsupial). I started wearing my binos for everything from hunting trips, sxs rides, family...
