    Struggling to see the point of 6.5's

    One word for 6.5s popularity - marketing. I am with you. Love the 270 Win (or short for those that want a short action). 3000+ fps with 130 gr. Have been shooting gun since 16 YOA for all big game in lower 48 without a problem.

    does anyone only carry 1 knife for hunting

    I used to carry 3 knives, then went to 2 and now 1. It took some time to get comfortable with taking only one knife. I tried everything from fixed, folders and changeable bladed knives. I always went back to a folder since the blades on Havalon weren't durable enough for me. I like fixed...

    NM Unit 22 Coues Deer - drew a tag for Nov 2022

    Same here. I want to do it again. My first Coues hunt and loved the challenge. We saw and heard Elk but didn't find any mulies. We took a similar tactic and glassing with 15x Swaro for an hour and then moving to a new spot to glass angles or different ridge. We also had fog in the...

    NM Unit 22 Coues Deer - drew a tag for Nov 2022

    No luck with Coues. Saw 12 but no mature bucks. Found some really good sheds so they are there or were there - I was 3rd season so thet might have been pushed out. 5 days was not enough time to find one without preseason scouting. There were a lot of road hunters but very few out walking into...

    Sirui VA-5 Vs Outdoorsmans Pan Head

    I have the VA-5 and love it! I think for the money, it is the best bargain out there. Fully adjustable pan head and spring loaded tilt helps keep the scope balanced and in place. The handle is also adjustable. Check out some of the U-tube videos that give a good overview of the VA-5.

    Hoffman Mountaineer Pac Boot Review **Updated 1/30/22**

    Hoffman pac boots are the bomb! I use mine for ice fishing, snowmobiles and cold hunts with 12+ inches of snow and subfreezing temps. My feet stay warm and comfortable. Air bob soles work well.

    Overrated Gear

    Definitely overrated. There are a bunch of existing calibers that are just as good or better in either long or short cases.

    Rethinking "Leave no trace"

    A very good discussion. As outdoors folks, hunters, fishermen and women, I agree that we talk about conservation and habitat preservation but often do not give a thought to how we might be impacting the environment with our own day-to-day actions and choices. I recently moved to Aurora...

    NM Unit 22 Coues Deer - drew a tag for Nov 2022

    Roksliders: Looking to connect with someone that has hunted anything in NM Unit 22. I drew a early Nov deer tag and will be looking for Coues. Looking for general information from someone that has had boots on the ground. I already have my own ideas for access, logistics, areas I will be...
