    Just got a Christensen Arms Ridgeline in .308, for anyone that has this rifle.......

    I have archery hunted exclusively since 2000. After hunting out west several times and learning about the OTC and easy to draw tags in rifle seasons I bought a rifle. I do not collect guns, every one I have serves a purpose. So I wanted a very good rifle and a do all caliber. After reading a...

    Is the hunt you are panning the same as the hunt you expect?........

    One thing I will add as well. The thing I have told the guys ut here going for the first time is to not too crazy about shooting a trophy. Especially if they are bow hunting. I tell them and I adopt the rule that for the first animal, shoot the first legal animal that presents a shot. Every one...

    Is the hunt you are panning the same as the hunt you expect?........

    I think a lot of people that are planning their first hunt could use this information. I thought I would post this because after taking several trips out west (I am from Georgia) I get a lot of questions from guys planning to come out for the first time. After talking with them I find there is a...

    Any one use mountain climbing boots like Scarpa or Mammut?

    Well, my search for the next pair of boots ended when my wife give me my anniversary present. A pair of Lowa Ticam II GTX! I put a pair of Sole' footbeds in them and so far (very too soon) they feel great. I will be wearing them all spring and summer trying to break them in. Anyone with narrow...

    Sleep / shelter system, been trying to lose weight............

    I appreciate all the feedback guys. I can cut more weight for sure, but I have cut 4lbs from my past sleep system but I have gone way way up in comfort level. I feel like any weight shaved from here will sacrifice comfort. So I am going to run this for a while. I think I have proven that I am...

    Sleep / shelter system, been trying to lose weight............

    I bought what I thought was state of the art in 2012 for back pack hunting. I bought the OR Advanced bivy 2.5 pounds and a REI 20 degree radiant sleeping bag which runs right at 3.5 pounds. Then I have an Alpine Hikers Dome tent that hit the scale at 4.5 pounds. Add to that my sleeping pad and I...

    New guy needs help with buying a pack

    Yeah but those guys have pack sponsors and can be a little biased. I think they have a lot of good information but take their advise with a grain of salt. In fact these are the only guys that I have ever heard say anything negative about the Kuiu pack and SURPRISE SURPRISE they love the Mystery...

    which crossbow

    The one thing that all compound cross bows have in common is that they all break. Talk to any shop in the US that deals with cross bows and they will tell you if they sell 30 new bows they will fix and put back together 60. I have been in the cross bow industry with several different companies...

    RX1 turbo opinions wanted

    The turbo version of these bows live on the edge so to speak. They have a limited valley and if you creep a bit it will take off on you. As with any Hoyt they are built well and tough. They are a challenge to tune sometimes and the turbo cams a re a bit tough. There are other bows that will get...

    Texas elk: Any on public land?

    Thank foe all the info!! ImBillT!!! It seems that trying to kill some of the animals on my list on true public land might be a waste of time. I am not only looking at Texas butI am looking all over for public land opportunities. My personal feelings on the matter is that I'd rather go into...

    It looks like there are "exotics" on public land in Texas.......

    It looks like there are "exotics" on public land in Texas. Everything from blackbuck to Barbary rams. Has anyone here done any public land hunting in Texas for any of the exotic animals there. I'd like to go out and hunt for barbary sheep.

    Texas elk: Any on public land?

    Google hasn't provided an answer. All I can find is outfitters selling elk hunts in Texas. I know that elk are considered "exotic" in Texas which means they would be pretty cheap to hunt of there are any on public lands. I also was trying to look to see if there are any public areas you can hunt...

    Colorado 68 / 681, would like to chat with anyone familiar.........

    I don't. I saw that, but that's not too bad I can plan a few years out. Might be a good thing to buy a OTC 2nd season elk tag and just use it to get familiar with more of that unit, se where they deer are and maybe get a chance at an elk. I wonder if there are areas in 68 that might be far...

    Any one use mountain climbing boots like Scarpa or Mammut?

    I have a pair of Scarpa Charmoz that I love. The problem is that they are too narrow in the toe box. They have a lot of features and the wear has been awesome. I have used them for two years hoping that they just needed more break in. But, I am just not going to be able to use them because of...

    Colorado 68 / 681, would like to chat with anyone familiar.........

    I think I meant the 2nd season. It's around October 20th and is about 5 days I guess. The southern part of 68 around sheep mountain and twin peaks looks like a lot of hunters might over look it. I have done several trips with a hunting partner and it just never worked out quite like I wanted. I...

    DSLR with Video Capabilities?

    I have been researching this same thing. Since I hunt out west and would like to video out there where I'd need more auto focus and tripod use, I also hunt eastern whitetails. Normally in a tree stand and on a camera arm. However I need a camera that has the ability to take a remote for one...

    New guy needs help with buying a pack

    I agree with this 100%. You can use your web straps on most packs to tighten the pack up if it's not full but once it's full you can't make more pack! Bigger is definitely better
