    Spotter decision

    I might be able to save a couple hundred with the Kowa, but that’s not really a consideration. Straight up, is the Swaro a better piece of glass? FOV and edge to edge are very important. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Spotter decision

    Ok, I’ve narrowed it down to Kowa 773/4 and Swaro A/STS 65mm (25-50 eyepiece). Which one and why? KS whitetail, western muleys, elk, and pronghorn. Thanks, Sliders Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It’s legit but a little bit more of a hassle IMO than just dealing direct. Some companies only offer mil discounts through EV though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Day pack with ability to pack animal out/convert to backcountry backpack

    I’ve been using the Kifaru 22 mag (gen 1) for probably 5 years now. Works great as a daypack for whitetails like you’re talking about—I’ve packed deer .5-2 miles back to the truck with it the past 4 years. The new version has a meat shelf, which can only help. However, it’s a bit small when I do...

    Archery only?

    Thanks, everyone! I’ll hang onto the rifle, put together an emergency repair kit, and probably buy a new bow in a few years and make this one the backup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Archery only?

    Yep—bow, -.06, .22 and 9mm. I figure I need a 12ga, backup bow, and a 10mm for bear country. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Archery only?

    I also have my first firearm—an old Winchester .22 my dad bought me when I was a kid. Does that count? That’s one I’ll never sell. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah, the glass is awesome but I’ve never used a better RF—just always works. Wish they made these in a 12x. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Archery only?

    Yeah, I should probably hang onto it. It’s also 30-06 so there’s not really anything I’m interested in hunting that would require a different caliber. Guess I’ll save my pennies and look for deal! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gear Check Help

    I have a pretty similar list. I keep looking at that Leatherman and wanting to take it out of the pack—haven’t used it in the field for three years. Just afraid I’ll need it and not have it. Good luck, I’m jealous! My big hunts are over for the year (unless I can convince the wife to spend...

    Archery only?

    Ok, fellas talk me through this. First, background info. I hunt whitetails, muleys, elk, and will start antelope hunting this season or next. And will probably do a black bear hunt at some point. Also, I’m pretty minimalist with gear—I buy the best I can afford (maybe a touch more [emoji51]) and...
