    Tips on Getting People to Hunt With

    A couple things that happened this week lead me to believe this might be a good idea. That’s not to say I will do a good job. In fact I’m not confident it will go over well. But, if it starts s conversation and thoughtful contributions improve on it, I’ll feel I did a good thing. So first a...

    FNG Michigan

    Welcome @Jclink ! From the LP here. Only hunted up your way one year, but I want to get back there. My friends with a camp in Cedarville sent me pics of wolves running by their stand. I’m just amazed by that.

    Mil surplus clothing as an alternative?

    https://wildfowleroutfitter.com/. These guys carry value priced, waterproof, breathable quiet camo. As an option to the Cabelas Space Rain mentioned above. To the OP question, the ECWS series II puffy layers are inexpensive, and very warm. The bottoms zip off too. I forget which synthetic...

    Leaking Alakanak Tent- Need Advice

    For what it’s worth, among my hunting group we have 5 Alaknaks of different vintage. The oldest is a 10’x10’ bought from the bargain cave dirt cheap. It suffered some leaking from the roof ridge and edge seams. This summer I bought two cans of Gorilla Glue clear spray adhesive. (Gorilla glue...

    Link to: Fly, Drive, Run & Gun Elk - last minute questions

    I started the discussion in Gear, but I guess it’s really more of Elk Hunting generally. Anyway, here’s the link. Some situational items and methods, pros and cons, I haven’t seen too much chat on, for second season in CO steep country...

    Fly, Drive, Run & Gun Elk - last minute questions

    Thank you. I wasn’t thinking about the firebox size. You’re 100% right. What was concerning me was in the event of cold and snow when I’ll need the heat, dead down wood will be covered up. I will need the saw no matter what. Maybe the compact hatchet too if it doesn’t put me over airline...

    Shipping and insurance, learn from my mistake.

    Exactly. Safe to assume he’s not a manufacturer or distributor whose supply might be practically unlimited. He has X boxes to sell and make $Y. Now it takes two to fill one order. He can only profit $Y-$1.

    Hey Buddy... Are You Lost?

    This should be a relative not absolute question. I was relatively good in the paper/magnet era. We’re all the same now on digital. And I’ll call BS on all the Daniel Boones on here who know every tree. Try that walking in cold, new area, in the dark, get caught in a white out blizzard miles...
