    Planning my first elk hunt (Colorado)

    I've been following along and doing a DIY backpack rifle hunt in October for the first time. I've enjoyed you experiences and learned a few things through it. I ran across a quote by Mark Huelsing (the Sole Adventure guy)...... "Fact is, you're doing something incredibly difficult...

    CO legality question

    In regards to the question about crossing a unit you don't have a tag for.... I asked this exact question to the draw units warden I was going to cross to get to a OTC unit just the other day. He told me it was fine to cross over the unit. He also said it was a good faith statement to have the...

    Phone Skope

    I have a Leupold GR 20-60x80. I tried it out in the mountains this past week and it worked well. You do have to get the angle adjusted right that it attaches to the spotter and the zoom on the phone to get it right but it did work well. I have the bluetooth shudder closer but you can do the...

    6.5x284 at elk?

    I picked up a Rem700 7mm mag today and started gathering loading equipment for it. The 6.5 build was going to be to damn heavy anyway to pack all over the mountains. I'm not a fan of the Mags, but I'll dedicate this to a mountain elk rifle and modify it accordingly. I have no doubt I could...

    6.5x284 at elk?

    So is it legit to bring a 6.5x284 to the CO mountains to hunt elk at 600-800 yards or not?? This is what I'd been planning on but now starting to second guess. Is there anyone using this combo?

    Phone Skope

    They now have the iPhone 6 with life proof case holder out. I picked one up and it works well. I just never could get into the other cases because my phone has a lifespan of a few minutes outside of a life proof.

    Struggling with spotter decision

    That is also now my plan. I picked up a phoneskope and am very pleased. They now have a iPhone 6 with life proof adaptor and it works good. Also, I mentioned it in another thread but want everyone to know, With the new iPhone update (8.4), the gps now stays on while in airplane mode. So if...

    Iphone Geotagging with no cell service?

    I tried it last night leaving work with it in airplane mode. Took pics at intersections where I knew the location. It didn't label the pictures with a location, I assume because it needs the map to call it a name instead of a coordinate, but as soon as I turned the service back on it labeled...

    Iphone Geotagging with no cell service?

    After doing more research into the iphones gps I've learned some pretty exciting news. With the latest update, 8.3 I believe, the iphone's gps is now enabled in airplane mode. So, you can turn airplane mode on to turn off all cellular to conserve battery and still use the gps for map apps or...

    Iphone Geotagging with no cell service?

    Ok... thanks guys. Is there anyway to tell if the phone is locked on to a gps short of taking the picture and seeing if it has the geo info on it? For instance, you have the phone off to conserve battery and turn it on. When would you know it is ready to tag the picture?

    Iphone Geotagging with no cell service?

    How does the iPhone do with no cell service and geotagging photos? I've read that since it uses multiple ways of triangulation (cell, gps, and wifi) that using only one will not give very accurate results. Curious as to what others experiences have been. Thanks.

    Struggling with spotter decision

    I also thank you for bringing this up. Since I have done my own research and what you are talking about really opened my eyes on the lack of standardized features. I ended up with the Leupold GR Boone and Crocket. Its a discontinued model for a very heavy discount, but after speaking to...

    Elk Hunting with Suppressors?

    In the long range hunting and competition world Thunderbeast Arms pretty well dominates. Everyone will have their own opinion though.

    Struggling with spotter decision

    I also found a discontinued Leupold GR Boone and Crockett 20-60x80 for $1300 but not many reviews on it. Anyone have experience?
