    Your Workout Attitude?

    I'm 39, and workout at least 5-days a week. Generally gym / weights every morning before work for 1-hour. I try to get a cardio workout for 30 minutes to an hour at least 3-days a week on top of the gym (usually running or hitting a bag in the evenings). I love it. I'm in the best shape of...

    Still hunting

    I do love still hunting for whitetails. Intercepting traveling whitetails on foot is just exciting, and it is fun to change the game a little as season progresses. I do pick the days to still hunt strategically though. I typically pick rainy days (or the day following a rain), heavy dew, or...

    Hells canyon speed rifle

    I have a .300 win mag Hells Canyon Speed. I love the gun. I was able to site the gun in with factory bullets and ring the 600 yard steel plate on the range. I killed a bull elk at 287 yards, and a whitetail buck at 294 yards this year. I put a Vortex scope (6.5x20x50mm) on it, and the combo...

    Trump jr interview on hunting

    Jr. is an avid outdoorsman. I liked it that he said he would be in his Dad's ear when it came to these issues. Leadership that is on the hunter's side. I am excited about the future.

    Binos or Spotter First

    I am with the everybody on the binoculars. On my last trip west, I was able to borrow some really nice binoculars / range finder combo. I was amazed at the difference in quality from my "cheap" binoculars to the good pair. Furthermore, when i set them on my shooting sticks to steady them...

    How close to the "X" do you set up on a backpack hunt?

    Without a doubt. I know to hold back some, just wasn't sure how far. If the guys finding success on the spike camp hunts were still a mile or two out from where they plan on focusing their hunting efforts, I was going to have to re-work my plans. But it sounds like you guys are getting in...

    How close to the "X" do you set up on a backpack hunt?

    Hey guys, I've hunted from base camps with wall tents, but feel like I waste time with that daily hike to and from base camp. My brother and I are wanting to plan a back pack hunt and set up closer to the action. My question is, how close to the "X" do you guys set up your camps? Are you...

    UA Speedfreak Boots in the High Country?

    I bought the Speed Freaks this year, used them through the TN whitetail bow season, then to Idaho in October elk hunting. Contradicting the performance that most of you above experienced, I really like them. I do realize that they are not a cold weather boot, but for mobility moving through...

    Morning or evening in early season

    I love to hunt, so I am not going to pass up that morning opportunity to be in the woods. That being said, there is no doubt that you risk spooking more deer by walking in to a feeding area before light. I have harvested several deer at different times of day, so being in the hunt is key to...

    FNG from West Tennessee

    Hey guys, just logged in for the first time since setting up my account. I had the good fortune to meet and hunt with Mr. Robby Denning last week in Idaho. Great guy, and I am happy to have made a new western friend. I do love to hunt places I've never seen before, and love the mountains of...
