    NAP Spitfires

    After tuning issues with muzzy fixed blades I switched over to spitfires a few years back. I’ve found them extremely accurate and so long you stay off the shoulder they produce nasty blood trails with deer crashing where I could hear them. My only complaint is I’ve found trying to reuse them...

    Eureka Timberline old school tent

    I grew up camping year round in these tents in scouts also. Easy tents to setup and i e been through some nasty weather in them. We give ours a spray with camp dry every few years and always dry it out before storage. Not enough room for the wife and our 3 boys anymore. But anytime it’s me and...

    trout creek MT

    No experience with the specific outfit in question but I’ve been in the area a few times. I hunted the area 2 years ago with an outfitter for archery elk. Lots of hype beforehand but like many others have said it was a letdown. Wish I did my homework better before that trip! I’d have saved a...

    Knees

    I thought my knees were wrecked last summer after ramping up workouts. Early 40’s former wrestler and still think I’m 20.. After getting aggressive with workouts my knees felt hot and hurt all the time. I was a little concerned so I asked the Dr about it. He didn’t feel there was any major issue...

    I have a new Christensen 300 win mag I recently purchased and also a trip in May for Bear. I followed the mfr recommended barrel break in procedure with some Barnes 150g TTSX just because that’s what I could find..

    Plano sportsman's trunk

    Years ago I used the Plano bins for storing & moving hunting clothes to / from the truck. Mine had broke wheels and the hinges popped loose when closing them up. I’ve since switched over to a brand of bin called Iris USA. They have a handful of sizes but the 82qt bins I have are much stronger...
