The usual have been talked about to death already. One show I enjoy watching, and not for the hunting, but more of the flip side of life as an outfitter and comedic relief with plenty of sarcasm is Tom McMillian "The McMillian Way". I also enjoy Skull Bound TV, Jana Waller does a lot for us as...
Me personally, I do not trust my phone if I do not have a signal, no matter what! Well maybe the calculator, and flashlight.... and a couple games when bored...
If you hunt and have service I would use the app, I have used it in the past. Sometimes it takes a 3 miles hike to the top to get a...
I use mountain house, prefer the mac n cheese! Also any of the pasta ones are a-ok for me. Trail mix, wilderness athlete, mtn ops, Gatorade flavorings also help a ton. Don't forget a water filter, incase you run out.
Did a group app for GS deer and LE Elk, buddy texted me and said got hit for 160, so looks like the 4 of us drew our tags. Now to wait and see what unit! haha
Storage, storage storage!
I would put some sort of rack on top to hold larger bulky items/gas cans. On the inside I would suspect you have two or 4 bed areas? If so folding benches that double as seating for eating. Insulation is key and ventilation if running any sort of propane heat source...
Just about any of todays and heck even yesterday's SUV's are built off an existing pickup platform. Yes some of them have a slightly different frame, suspension, etc but that can be worked around.
Hunting rigs by my definition are beat up, trusty, and can be fixed with bailing wire, electrical...
I have an o9lder stick type as I love stoking the fire. On the other side I want to get a pellet one too. I love the way Green Mountain is set up for size, blue tooth, wifi etc vs the Treager and cost is usually a bit less. If you compare them side by side, just for shear volume, the GMG is...
Oh I hear ya on that. I have a GMC 3500 Duramax and tow my toy hauler a few times a year. My F150 EcoBoost did it just fine but I was hoping to upgrade to a 40 foot 5th Wheel soon so I needed the extra umph from the 3500/Diesel.
I hardly use the pickup bed for pickup bed stuff, if I could I...
With that size in mind, I would go to the Older Tundra, more room and the available v8 for towing. With a mild lift and different wheel/tire combo you can get chains on all 4. The Ram 1500 is still the same size at a Titan, F150, GM 1500, so if you want to include all mid size and full size...
Chinese Water Deer, first one I killed while stationed at Kunsan AB, South Korea. I ran the BASH (Bird/Wildlife Aircraft Strike Hazard) program for the year I was there. Used a Remmy 870 with 7 1/2 bird shot while he was running at 10 yards. Some of the best tasting deer I have ever eaten.
I've ran Nitto AT's, MT's, Toyo MT's, Goodyear AT's, BFG AT's and now I'm onto Cooper STT Pro. Over all I've had bad experience with every factory installed tires from more traction, to horrid wear. I've also owned everything from a Ranger to 1 Ton crew cabs, tire pressure will help soften the...
How about this, the V8 will do everything the V6 can do. The V6 can't do everything the V8 can. Fuel mileage will always vary from person to person, state to state, fuel to fuel etc etc. Buy the vehicle that will do the chores, tasks you demand from it, a family of 8 wont buy 2 cars for family...
I think pawn shops are great paces to find those older, classic guns. I know ones around here also carry some almost new rifles and pistols since they are ffl's and order some once in awhile. I would not buy one from there unless I get a 100% return policy. I would go straight to gun smith and...
1. Boots (Kenetrek, Lowa) Find em and wear em before buying.
2. Pack (Kuiu, Stone Glacier, EXO, Mystery Ranch, Kifaru) Most good companies will let you send it back if it dosent fit.
3. Trekking poles (Flip style locks hold better IMO than the twist type) can double as a bino mono pod if done...
I second the get both in hand and shoot. I have a Hoyt but I want a bowtech, hard to justify the upgrade when mine is newish and shoots well. Also no Bowtech dealers near me.
I have the Kuiu Yukons and love them. It has not crossed my mind about a zipper front. I don't think you can go wrong, I choose mine simply for cost over the Sitka ones, and Kenetrek ones.
uggg... Think next week my buddies and I will sit down and do the group again. Right now thinking archery elk in Manti unit, deer general archery manti unit also... hopefully we draw elk
