    Jerky Cure Screw Up

    Awesome things to try! Thanks all. This batch is on the grill now so we’ll see how it turns out. Heading to Idaho at the end of the week and hopefully bringing back more meat to try these different recipes on.

    Jerky Cure Screw Up

    Thank you sir, that is the reassurance I am looking for. The further thought behind using cure was I wanted a good smoke on the jerky (using pellet grill) and read that smoking can seal off and keep moisture in the inner part of the meat. This is again something I will probably need to dive...

    Jerky Cure Screw Up

    Thank you, I will have to jump in there and ask some questions. A lot of guys I see don’t use cure and I was originally not going to but thought that the added ability to let it sit out a bit longer would be nice. I don’t have much worry over cure-free jerky as long as I take care in...

    Jerky Cure Screw Up

    Thank you. That’s the hope, I mean how much could it soak up in that span of time?

    Jerky Cure Screw Up

    Hello all, first time posting here. I need some help from the jerky/meat cure experts (I should’ve reached out before now but here I am). This is my first time making whole muscle jerky with a marinade and cure that didn’t come in a pre-measured kit. In a rookie move, I made a grossly wrong...

    Spot burners?

    You can only control yourself. If you see those questions let the OP know that’s generally frowned upon, if other members want to entertain the OP (odds are that won’t happen) that’s their prerogative. If it affects you and/or bothers you that much... let them know. But again, you can’t always...

    Reviews on Muley Freak bino harness

    I bought one a little over a year ago. I like it, although my 10x50s are pushing the limits, makes it hard to access the few pockets that are on the harness while the binos are in it. I see they have a large size now. They don’t hold much so if you’re looking for a chest pack like some guys are...

    Idaho Nonres Tag Sales/ Coronavirus Decrease?..

    If I wasn’t buying a house, already had scheduled family obligations, and had a dependable hunting partner I would be going. Ain’t no Corona in the great outdoors! Oh well maybe 2021, it’s still on the horizon, just a little further out now.

    How to Add Weight to Your Pack?

    I did the same thing, loaded the pack with some of my bulkier items to fill a lot of space. Added the KBs mid pack and against the back like I would any other item with some weight. I felt like it was comparable to a loaded pack. Sandbags are a popular means. I run the Outdoorsmans pack so I...

    Chest freezer in my truck

    I think it depends on what you have and what you want/need. Personally I have a big chest feeezer so I don’t see the need to go buy another. Plus I don’t want to worry about having to plug a freezer in. Last fall hauled a freshly processed deer (hardly chilled) from ID to OH. Packed deer in an...

    Hybrid Bow Sight

    I really like my option sight too but I will second the complaint about everything being keyed down. I have the smaller version so I don’t have the issue losing the bottom of the housing but I do run out of space for my mover pin, especially when running a heavier arrow. That makes me want full...

    Teaching a cross dominant shooter.

    My dad found out he is cross dominate (left eye, right hand) during a CCW class years ago. The instructor highly recommended he learn and shoot left handed. Even with no practice he shot a few rounds with his left hand and the results were impressive. But teaching an old dog new tricks is hard...

    Opinion of Weatherby Rifles

    Just bought a Vanguard last year in 300 win mag, my first Weatherby. Thoroughly impressed and will be looking to Weatherby first when in the market for a new gun.

    Energy Drink for Elk Hunting

    Amino Energy is good. I like AminoX by BSN too for a non-cafeinated option. This seems like the right mix!

    Energy Drink for Elk Hunting

    Maybe focus on the mid/tail end of your day vs the front end, look for a good recovery drink/food/etc to replenish throughout the day and especially at night vs something to get your through the day.

    Zen Bivy?

    I just got a 40 deg in their zipper-less model as I was in need for a warmer weather bag. Hard time to test the warmth/drafting since it already staying into the 70s at night here, but I echo those same concerns. My thought might be to sacrifice the weight of a zipper if I jump down to their...

    Idaho 36A mule deer

    For what its worth, my buddy and I hunted 36A (for Mule Deer) as part of our first western venture last season. Same thoughts, would rather get away from people for a few deer than deal with crowds period. Hiked in, camped for 3d and saw multiple people and no deer. Now part of that is due...
