    Help with Blood

    Public land elk hunting was tough this year. Most OTC units were packed with people and snow. We struggled to find elk in areas where we always do. In the end, we did find a few good bulls, and i got a shot at 45 yards after stalking in. Shot looked good. I was steady. But i didnt see the...

    Kuiu ultra star 1P tent review

    I hope it doesn't get you too bad either. As I stated, I tried to reduce the issue every way I could think of. But even with the vestibule open and the air vents open, it seemed not to matter. Also, I was hunting at about 11-12k ft in September with nighttime temps around 35

    I haven't posted much on here, but it's a large community and I feel compelled to post my review of the new kuiu 1 person tent here. First i'd like to say that this tent is the only peice of kuiu equipment that I own. My experience with backpacking has had me in a double wall tent up until now...

    Loving my new Elite Impulse 34

    Just picked up my impulse 34 as well after shooting a Hoyt protek for years. The new technology is crazy. What stands out to me most is how solid the back wall is. I love it. Can't wait for season to get here!

    Durability Issues with First Lite Llano QZ?

    Before I bought my first item from first lite, I called to talk to one of the salesman. We spoke for 10 minutes or so about the type of hunting I would be doing and the various types of terrain people hunt. When it was all said and done, he said "if your gunna bush whack all the time, buy...

    More TV poachers

    This is really upsetting to see. Does anyone have any evidence that similar crimes by "common foke" have been punished more seriously? If these dummies were punished accordingly, then so be it. But if they were treated lightly because they have some sort of infamy, there is a serious other...

    Col.unit 77/78 deer 2nd. season

    If your referring to the Weminuche, its all in 751/76. Its fairly easy info to get a hold of, you just have to look for it. The weminuche is the largest wilderness area in colorado and includes right around 500K acres, none of which are in unit 77. All of the piedra primitive area in 77 is...

    Solid Broadheads

    I Bought Solid broadheads last Season. Out of the box, which is a nice little re-usable plastic container, they are as sharp as a straight razor. For my Bow, there was no need to adjust the pins. They shot exactly the way my field points did out to 50 yards. The only deer I shot with them last...

    Elevation preference

    If more people answer with an elevation of around 8000' than any other elev. than it seems to me that it is the most popular answer to my question of "most successful". Ive averaged out the answers given so far and 7593 ft is what I'm coming up with. Probably not an indicator of much, but I'm...

    Range finder help

    1x for Vortex ranger 1000 I can attest to the quality of my ranger 1000. It does everything I ask of it. I Have yet to experience any fogging with it which is nice. The original battery is still in use after a full year. So clearly, battery life is not an issue. The angle compensation is a...

    Elevation preference

    So far, the answer that seems to be appearing most is around 8000'. My goal for this question was to very Basically see if one elevation was more popular than another. Obviously this has no real science behind it, but interesting still.
