Used tent in great shape. Stuff sacks have a few tears, but tent, poles, rainfly, and footprint have loads of miles and nights left in them.
I've spent maybe a dozen nights in this tent, including a backcountry elk hunt in Idaho. I'm 6'4, 250lbs and was very comfortable. I'd be keeping this...

As my eyes get older things are getting a little softer around the edges visually. Because of this and past issues with it not turning correctly, getting out of position, etc., I'm thinking of getting rid of the peep sight all together. Anyone else who has made this transition, do you regret it...

I've been researching tents for hours on end in prep for future backpack hunts, but then realized I might be looking in the wrong place for optimal comfort at base camp (not up for bivying just yet), and I should really be worried about a high quality sleeping bag and pad.
Basically it seems to...
After a successful elk hunt last fall I was packing the elk out and snapped two buckles on the shoulders of my second-hand Kuiu Icon 3200. I guarantee this was user error because it's an older model that I had to fish the straps through the top of the frame to set up the load shelf and I never...
After a successful first elk hunt in MT and a follow up whitetail archery kill back home here in PA, I have a freezer full of meat and I want to treat it right. That means upgrading my grill set up and making it as easy and convenient for me to use. I've been doing some research and, as with...
Just got my new game bags for a fall Elk hunt. Everything is so neatly packed and I know I'd never get it back in the little bag as efficiently as the manufacturer, but I also know new clothes and most fabric products come loaded with other chemicals and stuff. Should I wash these before I use them?
Two buddies and I got MT big game combo tags (apologies if the terminology isn't correct, but it's the elk/mule deer/white tail tag) for our first Western hunt this October because we figured it would increase our odds of success. But is this a poison apple? Should we just pick one -- elk being...
Due to work restrictions and scheduling, my buddies and I are flying from PA to MT for our hunt this fall. Any recommendations for processors who can cut and ship our meat and antlers home if we're lucky enough to get something? Any ballpark cost for this sort of thing? The closest towns are...
My friends and I drew our combo tags in MT, so I guess it's time to really get serious about some important purchases. The first of which is boots. I know weight is a huge consideration, and we're planning on putting on the miles. You folks with more experience out West (of which I have zero)...
I'm a PA whitetail hunter who lives in a tree from Sept-Jan, but I'll be heading out West for the first time this fall. I was figuring on just wearing light wool socks, but I've seen a lot of specialized socks when I'm browsing higher end hunting clothing companies.
Are specialized socks more...
Two friends and I will be hunting MT this fall and I need a pack for the trip. Since there's no guarantee I'll be trekking out West again (who am I kidding... I already know I'm going to love it!) I've made a rule for myself that I'm not going to buy any equipment for this hunt that I can't use...
