I have seen the BA Fly Creek UL 2 for a reasonable price and think that would be a great fit for me. It’s much cheaper than the copper spur or mountain star or other tents. Hard to beat the price and weight. I understand the durability is not great but for the price and weight It might be my...
I’m leaning towards the tent option as that would seem to give me the best bang for my buck. To be honest it was at the bottom of my list of the three I listed. I like the kuiu mountain star or the copper spur that were mentioned.
I like the idea of being able to use the whole tent or just...
Thanks for the input, I use the same game bags and they have been awesome! I have a decent black diamond headlamp and some black ovis trecking poles that do a good job.
I will look into a knife as that might be an option as well.
I have a budget black ovis tripod and will be using a aziak bino clamp. I got this tripod (used condition) last year and it was crazy how much it made a difference.

I believe Steve Rinellia had some biologist of some sort on a couple weeks ago that said genetics don’t play as big of a factor as we think in antler growth referencing mule deer. It’s more of how healthy the doe was during the pregnancy. I would think it would be similar for rams.
Longtime...
That's still a little tender.... It was mid October and day two in on a 3 day solo hunt, it was prime time around 5:30 and I was still hunting in some sage that was right on the outside of the timber. I stopped and pulled my binos up and saw the first deer of the trip. I thought "that looks like...
i have the attack pants from Kuiu and really like them. They do a great job of letting out heat when hiking and can easily put some long johns underneath them to add warmth. They are versatile and you can usually get them on sale or get a discount. I have a pair of eddie bauer pants that i...
