I am also planning on trying peep sights for this fall. The front fiber optic dot on my Williams fire sight is just too darn big. Fine at 50 or 75 yards, but covers up a lot of the target farther out.
Got my Colorado mulie with 110 grains BH209 and 300 grain Thor last fall. The Thor is a sleek bullet and you can get them in a range of diameters to fit your rifle exactly. Mine liked the .501 diameter. I will probably use the same load again this year, but I'll also be looking at the 350...
I should add that there is an either sex elk muzzleloader tag for the same unit and season (EM07401M). But you need ~4 pts to draw it as an NR. There is a cow tag for muzzleloader season which you can draw as a second choice, even as a non resident.
These tags are on my list to consider. The...
The tag, DM074E1R is for one week before muzzleloader season (9/7 - 9/15). There are only 20 of them and you can use a rifle, but you have to shoot the buck above timberline. There are 80 tags for muzzleloader season the next week (DM074O1M) and it is good for the whole unit.
You need one...
I have a question about Kuiu sizing. I am a small guy. I have a 30" waist and 30" inseam. I've never seen anything that was listed smaller than 32" or medium for sale on the Kuiu website. Does Kuiu make pants that will fit me? I hate wearing MC Hammer pants.
I would like to buy breathable water-resistant hunting gear (not cotton) in multicam pattern. But I don't think it exists. If I'm wrong, will somebody post brand names or a link?
Thanks!
I too have narrow feet. I have a pair of Asolo Fugitive GTX boots which I have owned for several years. You can't beat them for summer backpacking. However, I would not recommend them for hunting unless you are a waterproofing wizard. I had wet feet for five days hunting, and that sucked.
I...
I too am a cold sleeper. Best change I've made in recent years is sleeping with a balaclava on, and a wool cap on top of it. When I go to sleep, I'm typically wearing almost all of my clothes that I bring with me. Usually including long underear, heavy fleece bottoms, sometimes my pants too...
Shrek - I have a four year old boy. He is always asking me to teach him things. Recently, he asked me how I would be able to teach him everything he needs to know before I go up to the sky. He is a sweet kid. I wanted to be able to teach him to hunt if he wanted to. And I guess I wanted him to...
