"WHAT SHOULD I CARRY IN MY FIRST AID KIT?" - ANSWERED PART #2
Nice list! Eye drops are a nice touch. It drives me nuts every time I see one of those videos with just a couple bandaids and ibuprofen as a “firstaid kit.” I keep my kit in a half gallon ziplock to save a bit of weight. I still have a tourniquet from a deployment and carry quikclot, plus a...- Karl

Weekend Libations
Great afternoon for a delicious stout! Was trying to listen to the Michigan game while cooking short rib and onion soup, but don’t feel like paying money for it, so playing George Strait instead.- Karl

Snow Day
I could use a snow day here in Northern Virginia so I can get some reloading done. Other than that snow days usually call for making deer chili or a gumbo and watching the dog play in the snow.- Karl

Better fly fisherman than elk hunter
Because I feel like bragging on the successful part of my Co elk hunting trip, which was the fly fishing afterwards lol! Stopped by the Poudre and managed to hit a short hatch of mayflies and then a longer midge hatch. Had a blast catching a couple nice browns and a beautiful cutthroat! Was a...- Karl

How often to reload Muzzleloader in the backcountry?
I’ll be out there doing the same. Im using T7 and my plan is to reload every 3 days as long as the weather is dry. If it’s raining a good bit then I’ll change to more often. Definitely will have electrical tape over the muzzle also. -

Sitka Stratus jacket with Fanatic bibs
With a heavy base layer and you not being cold natured, I think you would be good to about 20°, but that would be highly variable depending on the person. For me about 30° is when I swap from Stratus to Fanatic. A puffy vest might get you a few more degrees down also.- Karl

I'm terrible at field judging. Just curious if you guys think any of these bucks pass the 70" mark.
Seriously making me wish I had a pronghorn tag this year! I like 5, but I'd shoot anyone of these in a heartbeat! Going to go count my pronghorn points now and see if I have enough to chase anything good next year... -

Zeroing in Muzzy question
Tag is good for X. Planning to hunt X with backup locations in X. Never hunted it before, so going in with low expectations other than to learn the unit. Looks like beautiful country and worth the hike even if most of the gouge says it's not great numbers of elk and deer.- Karl

Zeroing in Muzzy question
I’m for throwing a scope on to figure out what your gun likes, but only if you have plenty of time to get out and shoot it. If you are only going to get out 1-2 times I’d skip it and just shoot with open sights. I have a TC Triumph and am using 130gr by volume of Triple 7 with the Boredrivers...- Karl
