    WTB Bow with 31 in Draw

    Thanks to everyone that has replied and PM'd me. I have been out of town a few days and have a ton of info to sift through here and as you know I'm fairly uneducated in the archery world.

    WTB Bow with 31 in Draw

    Not so sure I want the carbon matrix. It seems to have a reputation for issues for such an expensive bow. But maybe they all have issues. Like I said, I'm new to the archery world so all of this is new to me.

    WTB Bow with 31 in Draw

    Yea, I'm not that concerned about size and weight yet. I can tell you though, there is not a lot of used bows for sale that fit me.

    WTB Bow with 31 in Draw

    No, unfortunately. But thanks for thinking about it and replying. I have been told a few times that if you want to get into archery, start with used equipment because there is a lot of it out there that is not that old. My problem is my draw length.

    Staying "Right" Mentally

    This is a great thread. Being a first time mountain hunter this year I can relate to much of what I am reading. I think that's what makes this type of hunting so unique and not for everyone. 7 days on a mountain chasing elk compares to no other trip, hunting or otherwise, that I have...

    Muzzle loader Accuracy issues all of the sudden?

    I changed primers 3 weeks prior to my hunt and it shot 10 inches high. Had to adjust the sights. Went from regular 209 ml primers to BH's recommended 209m CCI primers. Couldn't believe it made that much difference but it did.

    Muzzleloading: Best of Both Worlds?

    Had my first elk hunt ever in GMU 12 with a ML. I'm definitely hooked. Drew a cow tag right off the bat and was able to harvest one. Epic adventure...

    Trekking Poles

    Bought some Leki's for this past ML season. My first set ever. I don't think I could hunt the mountains without them honestly. They worked great. I bit the dust and faceplanted a creek bed on the second to the last day being clumsy. I used the poles to break my fall, and they did. However...

    Kuiu Yukon Gaiters

    The Swazi's look great, but are they waterproof? I don't see any mention of them being so on their website so I would guess the answer is no.

    Stolen Gear!! I got cleaned out :(

    I had someone break into my garage/shop back in 1989 and stole the largest whitetail mount I ever shot. Tore it right off the wall. Took nothing else. I was super bummed. Hell, still am. Sorry to hear about your loss. I feel for ya man....

    Handheld GPS!! Need some advice!!

    I'm very partial to Garmin. I've had a few and they seem to be the most user friendly. I recommend the Rhino. It's a great pc of equipment for us.

    Kudos to Kifaru!

    I wish I would have discovered Kifaru last year prior to my purchase of the V90. For the money I could have bought the frame from Kifaru and strapped a damn drybag to it until I was able to get the pack portion. Not that the V90 isn't an "OK" pack, just apples and oranges man.

    Flying With a Large Pack

    I am looking for advice regarding large backpacks as checked luggage. I have always flown using a large duffel, my gun case along with a small daypack as a carry-on. What should I expect for and prepare for if I would like to use my V-90 pack as a checked bag? Do the straps and belts get...
