    Got a two fer on whitetail bucks Sat. morning

    I was lucky enough to be in the right place in the right time at daylight Sat. morning when these two bucks were facing off on a power line right of way. I saw the 1st buck come out of the woods on the right side at about 150 yds. with his ears laid back looking like he was about to kick butt...

    Frozen Feet - Suggestions Needed

    Another vote for Arctic Shield Boot covers. I wear either 200 gram or 400 gram insulated boots, but don't put them on until I'm ready to leave for my stand then I try not to walk too fast and get over heated. I put on the arctic shield boot covers as soon and I get settled at the stand. This...

    Hunting clothes advice

    I often hunt here in NC in a similar situation. As has been said above I have found that if I'm going that far to my stand I carry in my outer layer (bibs and coat) and don't put them on until I get to the stand. I don't get sweaty and am a lot more comfortable for a cold morning sit. Also, I...

    Unit 47 Lope and After Activities

    I hunted there in 2017 on a trip with my wife. After killing a buck we made a 3 day loop across the state through Pinedale, Jackson, Yellowstone, and Cody before heading home. With a little effort you shouldn’t have trouble be successful unless you’re going to hold out for a record book class...

    Anybody have any experience with sporterized 1917 Enfields?

    I inherited my Dad's first hunting rifle, a sporterized 1917 Enfield he bought used around 1950. In the early 1960s when the 300 Win. Magnum was introduced he had it rechambered for this round and afterwards killed several elk with it. I was planning on taking it as a backup rife on a Wyo elk...

    Hunting Gear and Boots Recommendations for North Carolina Hunting

    I live about 30 miles south of Tarboro and hunt about 30 miles north of there. In late October it can still be pretty warm (up to 80) but the nights can be somewhat cool (50s-30s). Depending on the property you're hunting, rubber knee boots could be very useful. I always have some with me...

    New to Elk Hunting

    I hunted in this area every year from 1992 through 2001 when I was living in Colo. so any intel I might have is dated but I can tell you that if you want high and steep you can find it there. If you plan to pack in on foot you better be in shape and able to handle altitude. Also you better have...

    Anybody know anything about Cabelas rangefinder binoculars?

    No sale, just a shooting gear catalog that they send out periodically. The model name given is CX Pro 10x50 ramgefindiing binocular. Can't find it anywhere on their website.

    If you had to choose just one caliber???

    I come by it honestly. I grew up seeing what my Dad was able to do with his over 50 years across North America and in Africa.

    If you had to choose just one caliber???

    I would go with my 300 H&H and start stocking up on Nosler Trophy Grade ammo with both 165 and 180 Accubonds.

    Turkeys in the Rain

    Around here it really depends on the temperature. If its rainy but still relatively warm turkeys don’t seem to mind it much. As has been said previously they tend to frequent fields and open areas more. If its a cold rain with wind blowing out of the NE it tends to shut things down.

    Any thoughts on daypacks with hydration systems

    I'm going to upgrade from my 25 yr. old basic daypack in the very near future and I have seen where some current models can use a hydration bladder. I can see where this would handy and a potential improvement from my nalgene liter bottles stuffed inside the pack. Has anyone experiences any...
