    Muzzle Brake Cost

    Before you pay for all of that, have you tried improving just the recoil pad? I have a Tikka T3 lite in 30-06 that was a very hard recoiling rifle. Just sighting it in with a few shots would leave a pretty good sized bruise on my shoulder and I definitely started to flinch after a few shots...

    Smart Phone

    I've got the Pixel 2 XL and it takes amazing photos especially through a spotting scope and according to texts (not mine personally) they say it has slightly better battery life than the Samsungs.

    Drone use for sheds?

    I use a drone to take aerial photos of some of my hunting areas and food plots mainly. They do come in handy as you can see travel corridors and game trails from the sky. As for shed, I would have to agree with the post above. Unless you are flying really low, it would be very hard to spot a...

    Alaska Black Bear with Spitz and Fin

    We were just in SE Alaska on a cruise touring the coast and most of the guides there said the bear weren't active yet. Obviously your hunt tells a different story so just curious how active the bear were for you guys or if you felt you really had to search hard for them? All of the locals we...

    Cargo trailer feedback needed

    I dont have a trailer so I cant offer too much insight other than to say while hunting in Colorado last year we went up some roads and trails that we weren't certain the truck was going to make it only to find a guy with a massive camper or toy hauler trailer at the top. I was really shocked to...

    Lethal hit with no blood trail?

    My son, me, and a good hunting buddy each killed whitetail does at a small tract I have here in NC last year. All three ran about 100yrds in some pretty dense cover before dying without a drop of blood or at least any we could find. I shot mine with a muzzle loader which ended up being a...

    Need help deciding - WY draw or CO OTC

    Thats another great option I hadnt quite thought about. I'm pretty much open to wherever in CO. Opportunity is more important to me than size. I like to watch a lot of animals with the possibility of taking a decent animal which I know is not normally the case with OTC hunts. I'll have to...

    Need help deciding - WY draw or CO OTC

    I try to only do one planned away from home hunt a year so as not to stress out the wife too much with my two young boys while I'm gone. I hunted CO last year successfully and was planning to hunt it again next year after I built up a point again. I have a NC bear hunt scheduled this year so...

    CDs or LR reticle

    I havent used Leupolds LR reticle but have used others and was never a fan of using them. The numbers never came out to usable distances at the designated hash marks and I always felt like there was just too much guessing between the hash marks and hold over. I've switched to a dial system and...

Has 40-70# adjustable draw weight and 25"-30" adjustable draw length. Comes with the following: -Trophy...

    Common Sense Check: Investing While Having a Loan

    I've struggled with this before but I always opt to pay cash and invest with extra money as available. My theory is if the stock market crashes, I still own everything i have paid cash for. Yes you COULD make more money but thats part of the gamble and just one that I dont feel comfortable making.

    Swarovski repair service

    I dont agree with this. Honestly from a business stance, why should they fix and eat the cost of a mistake that they believe they didnt cause. If I back my truck into an object, is it Ford's responsibility to fix it since its their brand or is it mine since I caused the damage? Yes I do...

    Iguana Hunting in FL with Blowgun?

    I go down to the Keys regularly and they are truly everywhere. I've had to defend my food several times since they are not shy. Not sure if there is much "hunting" involved since they'll come right up to you. As for eating, I have had an iguana sandwich while in Mexico. Cant say I'm a fan of...

    Dedicated Turkey shotgun

    I use the Remington® 870 SPS Super Mag Turkey/Predator. It comes with a TruGlo Red/Green-Dot Scope and turkey choke. I got mine for about $450 from Gander last year. I saw them recently advertised at either Bass Pro or Cabalas in the sub $500 range also. It has an amazing grip and recoil...
