    Best replacement blades for Gerber Vital?

    I love my gerber vital for skinning but the blades dull very very fast. Are there any better options out there that will work on that knife?

    Argentina '24

    My Dad went to Argentina in 2022 with a group of guys he had never met. During the course of the week they became friends and agreed to come back two years later, so my Brother and I signed up and paid our deposits waaaay back then. Fast forward a couple years and it's time!! I decided to...

    Mountain Lion with hounds…a bucket list hunt

    Back in November an outfitter I had used previously posted that they had a couple lion hunt cancellations for a pretty decent deal. Talked to the wife and she said “hell yeah we need a lion full body mount” so I booked it. Didn’t really know what to expect but I was hoping I’d be able to get...

    Can we just put HuntTalk forums behind a login?

    Everyone is worried (some rightly so) about unit info being available through a simple google search and folks aren't really getting better about not posting identifying info so can @Big Fin or one of his admins just make it so you have to have a login to see the content of threads. Seems like...

    Skip Silencer Central if you have the option

    My Dad went to SCI in Jan of this year and stopped by the Silencer Central booth. Ordered a Banish backcountry and a bunch of muzzle breaks, adapters, etc. Went to ATF jail for 10+ months then got the alert he got his tax stamp. Silencer Central sat on that for almost a month and when they...

    Any WV bear hunters on here?

    I live in Northeastern KY and am looking to potentially do some bear hunting this December in WV. I don't have dogs so will be still hunting and/or calling. Would love to talk to someone who has done it. I have spot and stalk hunted the last several years in Montana, got one this spring in...

    Let's talk about the Montana "Hunt Roster"...

    So I applied for pretty much everything and only pulled an archery Antelope tag in MT (which I am really excited about). I registered for the alternate lists and got crazy high numbers but also put in for the "Hunt Roster" in an area I am familiar with. I just looked and am number 3 for a deer...

    Thinking of switching from fixed blade to mechanical broadheads

    Looking for input on the best 125 gr mechanical broadhead. I hunted Kudu fixed blade last year with good results (got two antelope and a whitetail) but wanting to go to something that leaves a much bigger hole and blood trail. Anyone have anything that they absolutely love?

    Is it just me or are Schnees boots getting worse?

    I'll start with stating that I have loved my last 5 pairs of Schnees boots (Timberlines and Beartooths) and their customer service is top shelf...but every pair I get is a little less quality than the pair before. My last two pairs of Timberlines were anything but waterproof, they leaked...

    How to get the smoke smell out of bear hide

    Went to an estate sale today and couldn’t pass up an old bear hide but he stinks…bad. What would be a safe to treat him with to get the smell out? I already cut off the felt and tossed it as it was ruined. Febreeze? Some kind of baking soda mixture in a spray bottle?

    Have people gotten back their Idaho refunds yet? That’s a big one and it hasn’t hit my card.

    Just seeing if people have seen their card hit for refund for unsuccessful MSG in Idaho?

    Anyone near Seeley Lake that could watch my back as I track a black bear tomorrow?

    Hit hard, ton of blood for 250ish yards and finally backed out because I was pushing him I believe. It’s relatively close to the road and I will do the dragging just being advised not to go in alone due to Grizz being thick in the area. I have a Glock 10mm and bear spray but will be alone which...

    2023 Semi-live Spring bear trip thread

    13 hour day gets me to Ft Dodge Iowa for the night. Another terrible long day tomorrow and it’s a chip shot into Missoula on Sunday. Plan is to try to get on a Turkey Sunday evening and Monday morning. I have a couple places where I saw a bunch of turkeys in the fall but if you are in the...

    Woobie hoody FTW

    My Son In Law is in the Army, he and my daughter got me a Woobie Hoody for Christmas. If you don’t know what they are a Woobie is a cheap’ish hoodie pullover jacket thing and from a “bang for your buck” perspective I think it’s darn good. It is cheap, light, synthetic so won’t freeze you to...

    Scope recommendations for Christiansen Ridgeline 300 PRC

    Cabela’s was clearing out their stock of Ridgelines so I picked one up for $1599 today. Will be running suppressed and looking to get a 3-18ish size scope. Looks like Swarovski, Leica, Zeiss, Leopold all have options in approx same price range. Really liking the look of the Leica Amplus 6 but...

    When would you want a pair of Pac boots?

    I have some Schnees Beartooth (insulated) and Timberlines and love them both. Under what conditions would you want a pac boot? I live in KY so it's not something that I've ever encountered? Are they much warmer so would be good in deep snow? My feet got darn cold in Montana this November...

    Corner crossing device...gauging interest

    Thinking of hitting my local swap meets and garage sales (found this sweet example on facebook marketplace) and loading up on these before I head to Wyoming for Antelope season this year. Thinking could easily double my money near some checkerboard public land :cool: Anyone interested?
