I’m in nearly the same boat but just me and my son. I put in for another species tag in an area to “pre scout” a deer unit. High plains with sage. It’s not an 11 point deer unit but it will actually potential give me two deer hunts. One by myself and then I can apply under my son’s points...
My Sirui ST-124 with VA5 came yesterday! Ho Le Chit is this nice and smooth. I’m a machinist by trade and this seems to be well built with decent components. I paid 149 on Amazon and was well worth it. I bought 12x leupold binos a couple years ago because they gave me a bit better eye...
My first western hunt was a small antelope area near Buffalo about 3 years ago-one of the roads necked down at a cattle gate and turned into somewhat of a fairly maintained gravel road and I was a little Leary of crossing it. Road name itself was odd, seemed like a ranch name or something. A...
Question: do these tripods with the VA5 heads also need the arca receiver purchased separately or are these already built for the arca rail system? I have leupold binos where I installed the thumb screw adapter but totally unsure how they attach to tripods. Thanks in advance and blessings...
I didn’t see if the ground coal oven sheep roast turned out unless it was when I had to step away to put a few logs into my wood stove. Such a great adventure
So, my first lite catalyst coat came today and wore it for another solo wind bump event in a large prairie grass area that I’ve known for deer bedding. What a difference to what I’ve been wearing, no back sweat. I wore a synthetic baselayer with a Sitka fanatic hoodie then the catalyst...
Picked up my First Lite piece(have some Sitka and kuiu). 40% off. Waiting for better winter clearance items in January for a puffy coat. Was hoping for Darn Tough to drop some prices but only seen free shipping. I could be blind, do t know. Did get a sweet set of silver and turquoise...
Doe or buck in HIGHLY pressured public out my back door is my trophy, couple thousand acre track that is poorly managed by our state(Michigan)low deer numbers with little habitat, little food. If I had access to all the private land that I hunted in the past I’d still wait for that calender buck.
Thanks…I was a heated box blind hunter on private land, now I’m public land and the game has changed. I’ll have to play around and experiment as we have high teens low 20’s coming. I did order the first lite soft shell that wicks, can be used as mid or outer. Catalyst I believe it’s called.
