I have a vortex diamondback 20-60. The field of view is terrible. The glass is ok but not great. It is kind of a pain in the ass to pack around honestly, a little big, a little heavy, it’s tough to get it stuffed in a pack. I had a leupold gold ring stolen out of my pickup and My wife bought me...
I picked an archery deer tag up off the leftover list in Co. Ran in to the elk the first week I was out on the prairie at 180 yards, snuck to about 40 yards and bumped him and a smaller bull that I didn’t see. Didn’t have a rifle with me and watched him for a couple days, just couldn’t get the...
I bumped the elk about 10 minutes in to shooting light opening day of South Dakota archery elk. Never saw him again. I didn’t pick a spot on the mule a couple months after I took the picture and shot under him...from 15 yards. If I would take more pictures I could fill this thread pretty well...
Man, I wish you would’ve joined the forum like a year ago. I found your thread about this exact bow on a different forum after a deep google dive trying to find info on building a longbow. I actually have the other thread bookmarked in my phone. I used your trick with the arrows on the limbs...
As the title describes, does anyone have a contact at Fort Carson? I have a tough box full of ghillie suit material that has made to many moves without use. I’d like it to go to a section and/or a recon platoon that will get use of it. I’d like to keep it to Carson for now so I can off load...
I have impact sport’s, run on a couple aaa batteries. They cut out sound at a certain decibel, but you can have a conversation without taking them off. Used them around breaked 50 Cals in the Georgia heat and they worked great.
I’d imagine a lion would bitch slap a coyote. Having hunted lions in South Dakota where dogs aren’t legal outside of some special tags in Custer state park. Finding a fresh kill would be ideal vs calling. I’d definitely be within 200 yards of that thing when the sun comes up. Then you could see...
I am aware that the point doesn’t come out automatically, and you have to purchase it later. The point I was trying to make was if someone had, as you pointed out $707 or $1283 for an elk tag. They could take $50 out of that set aside elk adventure money to buy a point at a later date, then use...
Regular non resident elk tag cost $692, special is $1268. Subtract $50 from either of those for the point and spend the remainder on a camera. Then you could go to Wyoming figure an area Out and not have the pressure to fill a tag, but still get the same experience.
It’s crazy how different each state is on this. In South Dakota 50% of the available tags go to landowners. Whatever they don’t take, rolls over into the draw for everyone else. With the exception of sheep and goats, when they have a season. They also don’t have to wait 9 years after drawing an...
I tossed mine in the washer on the whitest whites setting. Then I ran the sanitize, then a load of my clothes, then a load of towels. It takes awhile for the smell to get out of the washer. If you’re married like I am do what these other people are saying, because my wife was PISSED!
