    Teal and Woodies

    Heading to SE Missouri for my first teal hunt Monday evening. Doing three mornings in Missouri rice fields and two evenings across the state line on Reelfoot. Weather has been great here in Indiana but I see mid 90s for the whole trip down in Missouri/Tennessee. Besides light clothing, ammo...

    Sitka Pants - Apex, Timberline, Traverse

    Three pairs of lightly used Sitka pants. I’d guess that each pair has about 5-7 days of field use. I’ll ship to lower 48. I’ll split shipping to Alaska and Hawaii. I lost a lot of weight and had to repurchase all my gear. I also have some Under Armour and Cabela’s outerwear in similar sizes...

    Help Me Pick Elk Season - CO First vs. Second Rifle

    Hey All, I need some help picking a season for this fall. My hunting partner and I have narrowed it down to Colorado first or second rifle for elk (and maybe mule deer). However, we need some help choosing! We will be hunting DIY on private land. First rifle - we can draw elk and we would...

    WTS Cabela’s Euro HD (Meopta Meostar B1)

    With a bit of reservation, I am selling my Cabela’s Euro HD (Meopta Meostar B1) binoculars. I have pics below but can provide any extra upon request. I absolutely love these and I’m only selling to finance a new bino purchase. They were recently serviced and cleaned by Meopta and are in...

    Cabelas Euro HD (Meopta Meostar) vs Sig Zulu6 HDX IS

    HT Community, I apologize for another optics thread, but it’s my offseason and I need to dream for the fall. I currently have 10x42 Cabelas Euro Binos which have a Meopta label and from my research, I believe they are simply rebranded Meostars. They are the 2016 or 2017 models. I have been...

    Banff in a Week

    HT, I am heading Banff on 9/30 for a quick trip. Arrive around 5pm local time on Monday 9/30 and leave around noon on Thursday. Have a couple small work obligations Tuesday and Wednesday but otherwise have a lot of flexibility. Any must do things? Restaurants? Shorter hikes (under 4 hours)...

    Ballistic Help

    Hoping some of you better than me at this sort of thing can help! After years of hunting the exact same setup, I finally decided to get a custom turret cut for my scope. It’s a Burris Veracity 3-15x50 on a Weatherby Vanguard 300WM. Load is Barnes factory 165 TTSX. I have chronographed this load...

    Elk Salami

    I have grown tired of paying ridiculous amounts of money for sausage. So about a year ago I bought a real deal stuffer and consulted all the YouTube experts and took the dive. I’ve made some awesome stuff including summer sausages of various types, elk brats, and snack sticks. However, for...

    Trade/Swap/Buy - Primers, 44mag, 44 Special, 9mm, 40 S&W

    Hey all, I really need some CCI 209M primers. Only need 200 and so far only found them in packs of 5,000. AND Also, I have 3 boxes of 44 Mag that I would happily swap for some 44 Special or some lower/light recoil 44 Mags. I have a 27oz 44 Mag that is my pack/bear gun. I got 240s at 1450fps...

    Elk Mushroom and Swiss Sheboygan Brats

    Ever since I gave into the positive thoughts and bought a vertical stuffer, I’ve been looking forward to trying my hand at a natural cased fresh sausage. I have a lot of ground elk and I had some nice fatty pork in the freezer. After finally ordering some natural casings, I decided it was...

    Appreciation for schmalts at Predator Optics

    Hey all, just wanted to share my really positive experience working with schmalts (aka Pat aka Predator Optics). I’ve read the positive reviews and since I was in the market for a scope, I reached out. His response was near immediate and provided me pricing on four models. I landed on the...

    Field to Table - A Turkey Tale

    Fall 2023 was a dream season, but spring of 2023 was rough. I went 0-3 on turkeys in three states. I set out with a dream to make 2024 start out great as I bought Indiana and Tennessee tags (again). Unfortunately (sort of), I was out of the country on a family vacation during the Indiana...

    Indiana Buck for the Hat Trick

    2023 for whatever reason played out to be potentially my most exciting and memorable hunting season. However, despite closing strong, it started out with a struggle. Around February, I got bit with the turkey bug worse than ever. I drove my household nuts working calls and getting ready. My...

    2023 Colorado Elk and Deer

    HT Community, I have been meaning to get this posted, but life has been getting in the way. I also originally wanted to do this as semi-live, but limited reception and exhaustion made me rethink that plan. I also didn't know exactly where to post this as it involves road tripping, elk hunting...

    Powder and Bullets

    Hey all - just returned from CO muzzy and have a few thoughts. BH209 takes a little tinkering to get dialed, but it really is awesome. I was drenched by unrelenting rain for 5 of my 7 days. Despite this my ML went boom every time I pulled the trigger and with no cleaning whatsoever. Get a...

    Soft Topper?

    Anyone have any experience with the soft cab-height toppers/caps? There are a few options out there between Bestop, Softopper, Outlander, Fas-top? I only need one for about 1-3 weeks a year. I don’t like/want a hard top on my truck and don’t have a good storage space for one either. A soft...

    Alternative Turk

    I’ve cooked and eaten a lot of turkey over the years. My go to has always been brined and smoked breast meat and good intentions on the legs. This year I found myself with 6 birds in the freezer (long story) and I finally had a chunk of time to defrost and do something with them. I ended up on...

    WTB Lightweight 44mag or Trade 6.5 Grendel For 44mag

    Hey All, looking for a lightweight 44mag. Crazy hard to find right now. Would consider trading custom 6.5 Grendel AR-15. It’s a higher end build setup for hunting. Would be probably $1250-1500 to replicate. Also would consider trading HK VP9 pistol. Probably a long shot, but never hurts...

    Indiana Buck

    I bacd been meaning to post this for awhile. With Wyoming point creep screwing up my western plans this year, I decided to focus on the Indiana season more than usual. Between work and family obligations, I slated 9 days to hunt. I decided it was a mature (3+ yo) buck year or bust and was...

    3-15 vs 4-20

    Hello All, I’d love to get some feedback from the group here. I currently have a 3-15x50 FFP scope on my 300WM. Notice I left the brand name off the thread to avoid as many “get a Leupold” or “Vortex has been good to me” posts as possible. I like to shoot and practice at long ranges. And yes...
