    Kuiu discount code

    Just a bump here, if anyone has a 40% off code they are willing to share I would appreciate it. Need to buy one of their large rolling duffels.

    WTB Slik Sling V2.0

    Funny you posted this as I had been looking and saw they changed the model totally and I am not liking the newer version. I contacted the owner with my concerns about bar on the new one rubbing on the butt of the stock and the other end being open and possibly allowing the rifle to kick out. I...

    Middle of the road wader options?

    I have owned several over the past 40 years and my number one are SIMMS and their customer service has always been outstanding for me. If I could get a discount, I would be buying the Sitka’s. I have seen them and those things look ultra durable.

    Has anyone made their own Aux fuel tank for a Generator

    Remove the hose supply that feeds the carburetor from the tank, add a tee barb fitting and small valve available off of AMA&&&N for cheap and feed it with a second tank that is high enough to gravity feed. An inline filter on the new line might be a good add as well. You may want to add two...

    Thanks Poser, just checked the ingredients and ordered a box to check them out. If they are good, I’ll be taking them on my Elk trip in November.

    Snack bars, healthy eats on a hunt?

    I will be following this as I am interested as well in low sugar options. There is just so much out there and you almost have to be a dietitian to decipher all of the crap. Really try to eat as healthy as I can but with all of the fructose, sugar alcohols etc.

    Are the higher end knifes that much better?

    I own several Benchmade and Lionsteel knives and tend to like the Lionsteel knives better and they really hold an edge. BUT, the Mora’s are not bad for the money and very functional. Not to hijack the thread but what do you guys use to touch up your knives in the field?

    Powering a chest freezer at a motel

    Typically, a factory installed inverter on your truck is not going to have anywhere near the load capacity needed for your freezer. Please do not attempt it. My buddy that goes west every year for elk uses a hitch haul with a generator chained to it. This gives some extra storage space and he...

    Powering a chest freezer at a motel

    If you are going to take an extension cord, you should consider how far the potential run could be. At the very least use a #12 extension cord just to make sure you are covered. Also make sure the freezer is full with salted water combination jugs to give you some insurance.

    Colorado Fishing Question

    Look up the town that is near where you are staying for fly shops. If you are going at the front or end of your trip, that can give you some obvious flexibility on where to go. I primarily fish MT and WY but if you are anywhere near one of the many CO trout streams it will be worth a diversion...

    Guys that drive a long ways to hunt, what are your less common(but important) pieces of gear/tools you're sure to keep in the truck?

    A come-a-long would be useful and pretty versatile and not dependent on a battery to use.

    Red Sand Safaris African Hunt

    Great on the Warthog there! Didn’t have too many in our area where we were in Danielskul but we did have to hike quite a bit to find one. They were not easy. It was also interesting that the workers in the camp prefer them for meat.
