    8 years after back injury

    So I herniated my l4 l5 s1. Never had surgery trying to avoid it. I really just focused on my weight and exercise. I still have rough days, especially during wetter months. For the most part I get around extremely well considering. It's a slow and delicate process getting there. I had many days...

    8 years after back injury

    Been doing pretty good. Weight loss and staying active have helped a ton. Still have my down times, but I'm much better than I was. Just gotta stay after it. I notice when I don't go to the gym in a long time, pain really kicks up.

    8 years after back injury

    That's a huge part of my training. Use to fight pro muay thai so I have always been big on core work. Also cardio is huge for me.

    8 years after back injury

    Yeah I don't have much issues till after the pack out. I am hopeful I will get something this year. Its always fun and a challenge seeing what my limits will be that day. I'm sure others with back issues deal with the same stuff I do. I will say a great fitting pack helps a ton. I hope to do...

    8 years after back injury

    So it's been about 8 Years now since my back injury. I have learned a lot about my body since then. I suffered a lower back Injury to my L4,L5,S1 along with some nerve damage. When I 1st hurt myself I didn't think I had much of a chance to get back outdoors, like I use to. I actually came across...

    Lyman ultimate reloading kit

    I sure did. I love it would highly recommend it. It's a bit more expensive than other kits out there. However the digital powder throw and turret press are worth it. I have added a few different things here and there to my set up. I got rid of the vibratory tumbler and now I use a wet tumbler...

    Lyman ultimate reloading kit

    I loaded some rounds of 308 today. I had some bullets I got a ton of at an estate sale. Lots of 165 gr 150 and 125 grain 30 cal bullets. I shot a few but they were all moly coated. I didn't like how much I had to scrub my barrel to remove it after shooting. I decided to experiment with some of...

    New predator gun

    I think the biggest thing when going for fur. Is taking only good shots. There have been many times I passed on a bobcat because I didn't have an ideal shot. Then set up a couple days later and wind up calling it in a better setup. I really don't like taking far shots when I'm saving fur...

    New predator gun

    I have had my savage 17 hornet for 2 years now. Actually only shot 2 coyotes with it so far. I prefer hunting more fox and bobcat, I usually call in the mountains here vs the desert. However the 2 I have hit dropped like lightning hit them. I got a nice bobcat with mine last year and it really...

    New predator gun

    Ha ha yeah the 17 hornet is a great little round. I use it in tight cover areas where shots aren't very far. Same with my range 200 is max I wanna push the hornet due to wind. But it my favorite predator gun, I mostly hunt fox and bobcats. I really love my 223 ar for coyotes. I usually run...

    New predator gun

    Cool thanks. I bought 300 rounds of the 34 gr dogtown hollow points. Shoot really good, grouping is insane. Probably take it out a few times for yotes. Usually if there are fox or bobcats I take my 17 hornet. Its a great little gun, no damage on fur and puts down dogs. I mostly plan on letting...

    Pack hunters in nm

    Poles definitely are a must for me as well. I am going to get me a smaller day pack to swap out with my metcalf. Try to limit how much I carry on day hikes.

    New predator gun

    Ha ha I already own one. Probably best coyote round ever. This little 204 will be fun to try out though. My usual go to for coyote hunting is my 223 ar. I love having quick follow up shots.

    New predator gun

    I ended up getting a .204 ruger barrel for my encore. Shoots pretty darn good with the 34gr Dogtown hollow points. Just finished loading up some 40gr vmax rounds. I have had it only a month or so, still playing around. Anyone who has one already what's your go to load? Anxious to try the vmax...

    Getting into suppressors

    I think it would be a bigger issue if it was more dense here. Tends to be more open here. When I hunt fox I use a rifle with a 18" barrel so not too horrible. I'm sure it's a matter of getting use to the new length when it's on.

    Getting into suppressors

    I have one gun that has a super long barrel. I think that would be the issue gun. Only with how long it is. However thankfully it's really open country here. I think the report from a hit would be helpful. I am really looking forward to getting into suppressors. I heard both good and bad from...

    Getting into suppressors

    That's really cool. Everyone seems to have positive reviews with hunting. I think the ranchers will like me more when I go out, when I finally get one. I really am leaning towards the yhm resonator. Maybe get a rimfire further down the line. Don't own any handguns besides a 22lr.
