    How many arrows do you bring?

    I carry 10-12 arrows, 5 in the field and the rest in the truck. I match weight as closely as practical.

    Recommendation on chest rig

    Here is picture of one way to carry a 43x in the FHF chest rig. The holster is Kydex with a ULTI Clip attached so it stays in place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    My gear/pack layout from base layers to binos

    I typically use LMNT, Skratch Labs or Tailwind for electrolyte replacement as I am a heavy sweater but always looking for something better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Favorite weightlifting programs

    Delayed onset muscle soreness 2 days after the workout indicates you probably did too much volume and or intensity. I believe doing submax effort where you stop 1-2 reps from failure is the best for long term benefits including reduced injuries. Also doing some type of Zone 2 work the following...

    Recommendation on chest rig

    I have used AGC, Kuiu, Kifaru and FHF rigs and the new generation of FHF chest pack with tactical kit is outstanding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Solo pack outs?

    The only time I have dragged game is during winter with the use of an ice fishing sled and that made it very easy. During late muzz season it’s always in the truck. The use of trekking poles makes a huge difference. I did not care for them at first but now they are one piece of gear that is...

    Blue Loctite Alternative??

    After degreasing contact surfaces I apply a small amount of paint on the bottom 2-3 threads of the screw. Once every things has been torqued and re-torqued I apply a dot of paint to the screw head and contact surface as a quick way to visually check tightness. I have used Blue Loctite in the...

    Solo pack outs?

    If I need to move the meat to a better location for cooling then that’s what I do before I take the first load out. Typically I take the heaviest load first then each subsequent load is lighter. My last bull took me 16 hours to process and pack out solo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    1 month training

    With only one month I would just stay your current course, you are not going to get much benefit from upping the weight at this point as far as fitness. The exception would be if you have a new pack or have never used your current pack loaded with a heavy awkward load then I would load it up and...

    Garmin Handheld w/ Outdoor + maps v ONX and iPhone

    I use both a Montana and my phone with OnX. The Garmin maps use the same data base for landownership as do other GPS mapping platforms so both will give you the basic information. The Montana last significantly longer in the field and is less affected by cold weather than my phone. Operating the...

    Emergency communications

    InReach, but I have experienced delays of several hours to send a message from the backcountry so don’t think it’s as quick as a regular text message. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rifle advice for learning long range

    Rifle and caliber are fine but you could drop to a smaller caliber and shoot with even less recoil for training purposes to build your foundation. Really do your homework on training classes and focus on ones that fit your specific needs or goals. Contact them and ask for references. Don’t take...

    Bivy vs tent.

    I always carry a shaped tarp and feel comfortable with it and a bivy through October and into November here in N ID. If the plan is to stay out for multiple nights at a base camp then a tent often gets loaded in my pack. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Zone 2 Training

    I have found that’s it’s much easier to do Z2 stuff in the gym. If I do a trail ruck I often find that I am above my Z2 HR range unless I’m going really slow or the trail is basically flat. I would recommend wearing a chest HR monitor on your trail rucks to see what zone you are actually in...

    One pack

    I have used Kifaru, MR, Kuiu, SG, EXO and other lower quality pack not worth mentioning. The new K4 from EXO is my do all pack and would strongly recommend checking into them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Zone 2 Training

    Keep it simple, for Z2 just find a pace that allows you to talk in full sentences and breathe through your nose. I know this sounds too easy but it works. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
