    Need recommendations for low budget binos

    Celestron Nature DX They do not get advertised in the hunting community but bird watchers know a little about glass. They are light weight and great glass and can be found at budget pricing.

    Have 30-06 brass / Need .270

    I was wondering same. I mostly shot 30-06 brass in my .270 for years because of all the range pick up brass I found in 06.

    Doesn’t California have a bunch of wildfires?

    Axle to Axle Advantages?

    Another consideration is the string angle at full draw. I shoot a longer draw length 30.5 and when at full draw I like to be able to have the tip of my nose on the string in my anchor point. With short axle to axle bows this sometimes isn’t possible based on the string angle. This is now...

    Bogus Movie Hunting Scenes

    Watched the movie “Big Jake” this week. His son Michael makes an impressive 500 yards running shot on a deer offhand. Since he swung the gun in an arc covering about 30 degrees in three seconds by my math the deer was running close to 200 mph. Truly impressive shooting.

    Other hunters at your top spot, what do you do?

    Hunt your plan - last year elk hunting we had a couple guys stop and talk to us about where we were heading vs where they were heading. It was a very mutually respectful communication and kept us from calling each other. So if you get a chance communicate.

    Ultralight Climbers

    I would definitely recommend finding a store that has the saddle setups with the fake tree in the store that allows you to sit in several models. Fit is more important than brand.

    Daughter’s 2023 Muzzleloader hunt

    What is the front sight setup you have? I have a peep rear - but I noticed you have a brake installed and also still have front sight.

    Muzzy with 50 grains powder

    When my son was little he used a 20 gauge with sabots - the following year he was concerned about recoil so I told him I had special shells. He shot another deer - then said “dad I thought you had special shells 😂😂😂”. I agree crossbows are a great way to introduce kids to hunting though as the...

    Thinking of switching from fixed blade to mechanical broadheads

    I have shot a lot of mechanicals over the years. Last year I switched to a heavy arrow setup in preparation for an elk hunt and was shooting 1-3/8 grim reaper. Ended up shooting a whitetail back in Michigan that was quartering towards me and it was the most impressive archery kill I have had...

    Wicked cool mule deer hunt video

    Watched this video today based on the HT discussion. I could be wrong but I think Cody was a camera guy for Shockey years ago. Been years since I have watched his videos. He was either dating or recently married at the time. He certainly puts a lot of effort and time and certainly is without...

    Help narrow sleeping bag choices

    I read nothing but great things about feathered friends or western mountaineering. I got lucky and found a used North Face 850 fill locally 😃
