    Any Engineers on Here

    See username. I really like solving technical problems, but my job involves less and less of that with each year of experience. As a heads up, the first few years of undergrad you get bashed over the head with math and physics. I'm someone who learns from doing or seeing a practical example...

    Maven binos

    Last year I handled the B1.2s, B.2s, and B.6s and ended up with B.2s that I love. I am telling myself I don't need B1.2s, but those would be my choice if weight was a concern. Details of my thoughts here: https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/maven-b2-or-b6.227597/post-2529690

    BRCC In Hot Water

    BRCC is marketed towards patriotic Americans who own firearms for self defense. Then someone uses a firearm in self defense (not just my opinion, but the opinion of the courts involved), wears their t-shirt, and they disown him and anyone like him because it's bad for the brand/PR. I guess...

    Colorado Wolf Introduction is getting REAL political

    You know things are going in the right direction when there are people at this meeting with their pronouns proudly displayed that have no background in wildlife management.

    Have you shot your bow today?

    Shot my worst Vegas round ever today. Had a kid in November that decided to show up five weeks early so this is the second time I've shot in three and a half months.

    elk knife: iron will k1 vs argali carbon thoughts

    Not to throw a wrench into your plans, but I can't say enough good things about my Havalon. I'm OK with a sharpener, but I can't get anywhere near as sharp as Havalon blades out of the wrapper.

    Born Primitive Frontier Light Pants Review

    BP was running a 20% off sale a week or so ago. Since my favorite Prana Zions have been "re-imagined" and the new version is terrible, I'm on the search for a new go-to pair of pants for early season archery hunting. Bottom line: these are a massive disappointment overall and not worth the...

    Boot Recommendation Please

    Got in the Zamberlan 1104s and they fit pretty good overall. I will likely be keeping these to at least break them in to serve as a baseline for how other boots will be judged. Worst case scenario, they will end up as back ups. Initial impressions are that they are well made and pretty...

    The one that got away

    23 yards. When he decided to stand up, he straight up bolted out of his bed.

    Boot Recommendation Please

    As a heads up, Camofire currently has the 1104 40% off retail. I'm going to give them a shot.

    Another Which Binocular Thread... Around 1k

    I absolutely love my B.2s. Highly recommend them. Amazing low light performance and great image. They are a little chunky, but well worth that trade off.

    College Help

    Oh, I know that type. When I was a younger man, I quickly learned that drawings and specs don't tell you anything and spent my time hanging out with maintainers in the hangar. I also have many horror stories of design reviews.

    College Help

    Try getting a job fresh out with a Bachelor's from Tailgate U and/or an under 3.0 GPA at any FAANG company, Silicon Valley start up, or high frequency trading firm and get back to me. Also, the labor market has been really good for engineering job seekers in the last decade or so, but that can...

    College Help

    100% agree. Some of the advice here is absolute poison for someone in my field and would lead to no serious jobs offers out of school and limiting overall career trajectory. I mean I guess you can become that guy at Boeing who oversees offshore "engineers" and is supposed to QA their code only...

    Bowtech Deadlock and Elite S.E.T Review Focusing (with poll!)

    I've always been intrigued by the deadlock cams (and I keep hearing rave reviews about the SS34). In theory, someone who isn't mechanically inclined like myself should be able to tune their own bow. I would be concerned about the screws backing themselves out though (one more thing to go wrong)...

    I survived a top 5 engineering program. During none of my fall semesters would I have had the time to hunt.

    16 Colorado resident antelope points. Where would you hunt?

    I'd take a serious look at the RFW hunts.

    If you could only have two pants...

    Not to hijack this thread, but the KUIU Kutana are on sale at the moment. Can anyone comment to their noise level?
