Looking to sell my Garmin Instinct 2x Solar. This is the non tactical version. It’s the “moss green” color. Purchased it new in April 2024. It has always worn a screen cover and charger cover, so no scratches on the face. I’ve worn it daily since April and workout daily, have only had to charge...
I’ve enjoyed seeing the Instagram posts the past couple of days on MTNTOUGH of Randy starting his fitness program. I know I probably felt and looked similar when I started out too! Keep it up though!
Are you able to share what the hunt is that you’re training for?
My wife’s grandfather recently passed away and she inherited a rifle that he had. Her uncle was the original owner and then sold it to her dad who then gave it to her brother when he was younger and he grew up deer hunting with it. He unfortunately passes away years ago when he was 23 due to...
I have a 300wsm that I’m considering a barrel change on. My question is would it be possible to put a Proof carbon fiber barrel on the existing stock / action? Or would I need additional parts? I’m completely green when it comes to gunsmithing, hence the question, and would have a smith do it...
Having grown up in Montana and hunting deer and elk, I’ve never hunted bear. Never really had the urge to as I’ve never had the meat before. I’m curious, what drives hunters to bear hunt, specifically spring bear? I’m obviously not opposed to it, but just curious as to what motivates people to...
Curious if anybody has experience with these? Picked up a box of 180gr Norma Bondstrike ammo for my 300wsm today to try. I know Norma brass is pretty good quality, but have not seen full factory ammo from them until now. From what I quickly researched it’s a bonded bullet.
Thanks.
I ran into a unique and unfortunate situation last week trying to elk hunt. I went to a spot that I haven’t been to in a couple years and was surprised to all of sudden see both sides of the Forest Service road I was on Posted with No Trespassing signs for a 4 mile stretch. I pulled over and...
Wondering if anyone has one and their opinions on it. Looking at picking one up in a Weathermark LT as it seems to be a do-it-all from antelope to elk in a lightweight package. Wish I had the means to splurge for the backcountry TI but I actually like the looks of the classic weatherby’s and I...
I’m looking at investing in a backcountry sleeping set up and wanted to get some opinions. Specifically, I’ve been looking at the Stone Glacier Skyscraper 2 P tent, but am now intrigued with their SkyAir ULT setup. By my calculation the SkyAir with all of the accessories (footprint, vestibule...
Looking for a recommendations for a pistol holster to use while hiking with my family. We have a two year old that I typically have in a pack on my back. Don’t really want to wear my binocular case just to go hiking. Is there any chest type holsters anyone would recommend that you could wear...
Anyone have any experiences with one? I saw one today at a sporting good store in a 28 Nosler that definitely caught my attention. Seems pretty light, I think 6.8lbs according to their website. Over $1k less than a Nosler Mountain Carbon albeit slightly heavier. I’ve got an itch to invest in a...
I’m not a expert on crap but am curious if anyone knows what could have left this? It’s from a neighbors back yard by his garden. He said his garden was pretty much torn up down to the roots of what they had planted. Lives in a residential neighborhood but there’s a bunch open space behind his...
I’m hoping someone may have more elk experience than I do and can help explain what may have happened...
I was hunting a group of elk who I watched feed for 2 hours and then go into a Creek bottom and ended up working up a timbered draw. I worked over and thought I had them pinned, but they had...
Has anyone on here had any luck recovering a bow that was stolen? Had mine taken out of my truck the other night. I have filed a police report with the description of everything that was taken. With no serial number though, I’m afraid it’s probably long gone. I’ve contacted pawn shops and the...
After an up and down fall my 2019 elk tag has been punched. I had set a goal this year to get one with my bow but between family obligations, work, and other circumstances that’ll have to wait another year. I spent the first weekend of rifle season trying to hunt mule deer but due to the wind...
Does anyone shoot or have shot a Mathews Z7, from around 2010? I found a used one that has my interest and felt pretty nice shooting. I currently have a Mathews LX from either 03 or 04. Could I expect much difference in the 2? I’m currently looking at needing to put $2-300 into my LX for new...
So my current bow is a Mathews, not sure the model though, and it’s probably 12-15 years old. I got it used 10 years ago to start archery hunting. At that time I got it fitted for my draw length and weight, and since then I got a new 5-pin sight. It came with an adjustable 1 pin that I didn’t...
I picked up my 2018 bull from the taxidermist last weekend and got him set up in the house. Very happy with how he turned out! Every time I look at him it brings me back to that hunt.
My wife and I had our first kid in January and are currently looking at getting a pack to take our little one on some hikes this summer. Does anyone have any recommendations into packs to look at? I’ve only looked at an Osprey, which definitely looks nice but just curious if there’s better...
