    Help! I can't get my lab to stop digging!

    Just as the title says I can't get my 1.5 yr old lab to stop digging. She'll go a few days (sometimes even a week or two) without digging, but then if I leave her in the yard for an hour unsupervised she starts at it again. Sometimes even after a walk or training session when I know it's not...

    Is it irresponsible to NOT buy it?

    Hey HT, I've been wanting a Marlin 1894 in 357 mag for a long time now, and I found a gun shop that has one of the brand new Ruger Marlins for a hair under $1k. I don't need the gun, but I want it and will eventually get one either way. I have the money, but this isn't the best time of year to...

    Silly but Serious Question

    Hey guys, I'm gearing up for my first archery elk hunt, and I have a silly but real question. Do you ever paint your face or anything like that in anticipation of close stalks? I grew up duck hunting and I'm very aware of the shine my face can give off, so I often will burn a wine cork and rub...

    Am I Making a Mistake? - Tarp Tent w/ Down Bag

    Howdy everyone, I'm just looking for some feedback on a possible Sept elk hunt set up. I have experience backpack hunting in late Oct with a standard three season backpack tent, but for my upcoming Sept WY elk hunt I am looking at going with a 10'x10' tarp in a tarp tent configuration with a 0F...

    Local Archery Shop - AITA?

    I'm a believer in supporting local businesses within reason, and always try to buy through my local archery shop (LAS) when possible. I don't need stuff often enough to the point where they know my name or anything though. Earlier this week I call my LAS to see if they had a specific arrow in...

    New Bear Razorhead Broadheads

    Hey everyone, I'm in the very beginning stages of researching new broadheads, and I came across the new Bear Archery Razorhead Broadheads. Does anyone have any experience with these or feedback? I'm looking at a number of other broadheads as well, but I haven't found much feedback on these...

    Vest Advice

    I'm gearing up for my first archery hunt out west (I've done several rifle hunts previously), and normally when I archery hunt locally my layering system tends to revolve around wearing an old Cabela's soft shell vest in Max4. I don't like to have a jacket on in fear of it interfering with my...

    WWYD? Point Creep Strategy?

    I'm looking to cash in some elk points next season, but I'm already planning now for scouting and logistics purposes. There is a limited quota unit I'm really interested in that currently has a 100% draw odds with 6 points, and around 50% at less than 6. I'll have 6 points next year. If I put...

    What I Wish I Knew - Concealed Carry

    Howdy everyone! I'm sure I could go to some tacticool message board for more specific information on concealed carry, but I always get good answers here and this crowd is usually more my speed. I'm looking to get into carrying a concealed handgun. I'm pretty well versed in guns, ammo and...

    Upland Boot Recommendations

    Howdy! I have a great pair of backpack hunting/mountaineering boots, but my boots that I wear for hunting here at home in TX (nothing too crazy in central Texas) and on upland hunts in the Midwest have bit the dust. I was hoping to hold off until next year to buy a new pair when the new Meindl...

    Memory Bends??? - Aluminum Tent Poles

    Howdy, I just bought a new Big Agnes tent (Tensleep Station 6), and it has aluminum poles. I used it for the first time on a two night car camping trip, and when I started breaking down the tent at the end of the trip I noticed it had a couple significant bends in the poles in the shape on the...

    How Shiny is Too Shiny ?- New Down Jacket

    Howdy everyone, I recently got a good deal on an Eddie Bauer Downlight Hooded Jacket. I love that they have tall sizes and I've had great luck with my previous EB down jacket but it didn't layer well. The size and specs are great, but I'm concerned that it's a little too shiny. I bought this...

    Do It All Day Pack?? Hiking/Skiing/Hunting/Whatever

    Howdy everyone, I'm looking for a new day pack that can pull double duty for easy day hunts (tree stand hunts), hiking, skiing, and whatever else I might throw at it. I'm looking for something around 1500CI, hydration bladder compatible, and ideally comes in solid colors. I prefer that it...

    Original Gun Boxes

    I just bought a new rifle and plan on tossing the cardboard box it came in after I shoot it a few times. However, my dad kept every box for every rifle he bought new in our attic. Should I keep the box, or throw it out? I can't think of any good reason to keep it.

    300WM Twist Rate?

    Howdy, I'm looking to add a long coveted 300 win mag to the gun cabinet, but the rifles I'm looking at have different twist rates. One is 1:10 and the other in 1:8. I'm not set on using a particular bullet weight yet, but I'm leaning towards the 1:8. Any reason to stay away from the 1:8? Are...

    Flashlight Nerds - Can it be fixed?

    I have an old Cabela's flashlight that runs on CR123 batteries that I bought over 10 years ago. It was great, but I got tired of buying batteries for it so I tried some RCR123A rechargable batteries that I thought were compatible. When I tried to use the flashlight with the RCR123A batteries it...

    Video Idea - Gear Care and Storage

    I don't think Randy has covered this one in a video yet, but I know it's been discussed to a certain extent here. However, I enjoy the YouTube videos so I'd love to see what he does for gear care and if he does anything different when he stores it for the year. Do you do any special treatments...

    Stove Fuel Shortage?

    Hey guys, I've got a hunt coming up in a couple of weeks, and I'm trying to find some Isopro fuel or isobutane and propane mixed fuel for my MSR pocket rocket and everywhere is sold out. Is anyone else having issues with this? I think I might have a lead on some at a neighboring Walmart, but I...

    Tarps 101?

    Howdy everyone! Tarps have been starting to peak my interest, and while I've got a great giant silver tarp from walmart just sitting in my shed I'm thinking that's probably not the kind of tarp most of you use in the backcountry haha! However, there seems to be more to a light weight tarp than I...

    Non Typical Bag Question

    Is there any other bag manufacturer that has a pad sleeve like Big Agnes besides them? My buddy is really wanting a pad sleeve, but wants more options than just Big Agnes. I couldn't think of anyone else. Thanks!
