    Flextail Zero Pump experience

    They are totally worth it. Mine has the LED light, blows up a pad multiple times without getting breath condensation in the pad, and starts a fire like nobody’s business. I can get a full size wall tent stove roaring in less than 30 seconds with this pump. They are legit.

    Latest version of my perfect poncho/tarp shelter

    Revising this thread… @mcseal2 - wasn’t sure on your timeline of building one or if you had started yet and what you found? I tried to get onto the wilderness innovation site, but it looks like their website is hacked and the response time for emails and orders don’t seem very good. I really...

    Pad R-Value Overkill?

    I use a NeoAir XTherm year round. Whether August archery or November rifle. Quilt can be buttoned down or opened up in early season. Tent, tipi, or tarp can be vented for airflow.

    Broadhead Sharpener

    Nothing will beat a proper jig and then using various grits of sandpaper or ceramic stones, followed by metal buffing compound on cardboard or even a leather strop. They should be hair popping sharp and aside from shop placement, it makes all the difference in the world. I would recommend a KME...

    Best Single Bevel Broadhead?

    Anybody lose an IW in Oregon in 2022? Elk are tough, even with good broadheads. Shot placement is always paramount

    Keeping Meat good During September Archery Elk Hunt

    All great advice. Take advantage of windy ridges, creek bottoms, and culverts. If doing any preseason scouting, especially in new areas, I will constantly be on the lookout for meat drop spots. Creeks, cool bottoms, etc. it’s amazing how much lower the temp can be in these areas. Windy ridges...

    KIFARU ARK FRAME review

    I wouldn’t accept those marks after paying that kind money. I would have them send you a new one. Who’s to say the gouge in the middle won’t crack in the future and probably at the worst time possible.

    Sevr BH and Elk

    I had a 1.5 bounce off a hay bale in practice mode. 72lb draw weight at 30 yards. That wasn’t great for my confidence.

    QuietKat: Aftermarket Racks?

    Anybody purchase an after marker rack for their QuietKat? I'm looking for an aftermarket rear rack that may also serve as a fender - but still have load carrying capability (meat quarter, etc.). If so, any recommendations?

    Broadhead Success stories

    @yoopshoot - that picture and Euro is awesome. What a great memory. Imagine leaving that in the woods and someone finding it 200 years from now. Not sure what our society will look like, but I’d hope you’d be the Indian that people pondered being back in 2022.

    Kifaru pack suggestions

    If you are open to something different, an Exo K3 bag can be found on the classifieds for a good price and will fit that frame excellent. They have great bag design and fit the Kifaru frame fantastic.
