    GSP vs English Pointer

    I have a 4 month old GSP and everything I've read about them being high energy and having a great nose is true. She is constantly following her nose and walking her on breezy days into the wind is something to watch. Very excited to take her out this fall.

    NY Bear Hunting 2020

    Technically my first backpack hunts were in the Adirondacks for deer and bear, even though I had zero idea what I was doing lol. I hunted near Old Forge and never saw a thing except for other hikers. Its been on my wishlist to travel back and hunt the high peaks for bear for a week in Oct. when...

    Anyone hunt Ibex in Tajikistan?

    Thanks Kiwi, Tahr shot up to the top of the list once I found out I'll have enough airline miles soon for a free flight to NZ. However, something about traveling and the adventure a hunt in Tajikistan would bring seems like a great story to tell myself when Im too old to hunt at 12,000ft.

    Anyone hunt Ibex in Tajikistan?

    Hello All, Im trying to save up for my "once-in-a-lifetime" hunt. It started out as a British Columbia Mountain Goat hunt, then Tahr in New Zealand. Now I'm curious about Ibex in Tajikistan, looking at the price $6-9K. It doesn't seem to expensive for an incredible experience and hunt. Has...

My camelback finally sprung a leak and now its time to decide if I want to purchase a Platypus bladder or just use a Smart water bottle and Nalgene. I have the Sawyer Water filter which would fill either the bladder or water bottle quickly...

    Accuracy question

    If your home state limits your shooting distance, a tactic that I use at home is placing my rifle on my lead sled or pack and balancing a quarter at the end of the barrel and practice breathing and squeezing the trigger without the quarter falling off. This translates to a significant increase...

    Wall tent Pros/Cons

    Background: I am learning that if you do the homework in the offseason, there becomes less and less reasons to backpack for 7 straight days in the backcountry. Im toying with the idea of getting a wall tent to use as a basecamp and on hunts that only require 10-15 miles of day hiking. I will...

    Do it all caliber and bullet weight

    7mm is a great choice!! If you are looking for a do-it-all setup I assume its going to be your firearm of choice for the foreseeable future. That said, I would suggest you take up reloading also. The 280AI (or regular 280 Rem) is a great cartridge shooting a 140-160 premium bullet for most of NA...
