    Well??? What do all the old guys have planned??

    Going on a family trip to Alaska in June. Pumped about seeing the Last Frontier and catching some salmon. May try my hand at CO OTC elk if I can find the time in September, and planning an OTC hunt in AZ for Mule deer in January. Always chasing whitetails from September to January over here in...

    Knife Help

    I’m a Benchmade fan. I don’t think you can really go wrong with them. Had several of their knives for years and never had an issue with a single one. But then again, I’ve never had an Argali and I’m sure they’re great knives too.

    Chest Rig for bowhunting?

    Wish I got an FHF harness, but I went with the Nomad harness instead. Fine harness just not as good accessories and fits me a little more loosely. My brother got the FHF and its great. Shoot with my harness all the time, and have shot with his and never have issues with it interfering with the...

    Tree Stands for Mountain Whitetail?

    I have found its best (for me, bowhunting) for whitetails with a climber. Some like saddle better for less weight. Allows for mobility, but also security from being smelled or seen. Love the scenery too, and I can get up as high as I want to see as far as I want and feel is beneficial.

    A good waxed jacket ? Help me out

    I have a Barbour jacket and I love it. Little pricey, but all quality waxed jackets seem to be.

    What generation do western hunters fall into?

    Gen Z...but at least I'm not a millenial!

    Sitka Jetstream as Everyday Jacket?

    I can't say that the Jetstream isnt a good everyday jacket because I do not have one myself, but I personally think that it can't get much better than the Ambient for everyday wear. Warm, comfy, light, breathable, kinda water resistant, durable. Love mine

    Seasoned Elk Hunter chasing 1st Archery Mule Deer

    To be fair, I've always been an eastern whitetail hunter and am foreign to much of western hunting. So I found it super helpful just because it gave me a good guideline to follow, as well as a good idea of what to expect. But I agree that its not super detailed and if you already know sorta what...

    Seasoned Elk Hunter chasing 1st Archery Mule Deer

    Awesome book! Focuses pretty much entirely on archery tactics. Easy read with a wealth of knowledge.

    Do you hit your dog ?

    Totally think that is reasonable. People just don't seem to understand disciplining your dog because they let their dog do whatever it wants at home.

    "Sell" me on your outdoors smart watch

    Couldn't agree more! Love my Garmin Instinct, and it pretty much fully functions as a GPS if you get the Garmin Explore app on your phone. Pretty awesome watch with lots of functions, but no extra bulk or nonsense.

    Massage Guns

    Yeah, I love mine. Wouldn't get a total knockoff but I don't think you have to spend a fortune on it. Just go middle-of-the-road in my opinion.

    Running Again

    Dude, go for it! I want to work my way up to 100 miles within the next year but I'm gonna see how my 50 miler goes first. Pretty awesome to see the community of badass people that Hanes and Goggins have built. Hope your upcoming runs go well, and I say you go after that 100 miler!

    Sitka - Traverse vs Ambient?

    I could not agree more. I just cannot get it to fit right, and like you said I wear a medium in everything and never have problems with fit.

    Is the Sitka Ambient a must have?

    I think it is absolutely a must have. Not just my favorite hunting layer, but my favorite piece of clothing that I have ever bought. No joke, its so comfortable, fits like a glove, as you wear it it just gets even more comfy, its so warm for its weight, super breathable, durable and even water...

    Upland shotguns

    I absolutely love my beretta a400. Shot everything from doves to ducks to quail to turkeys with it and never had any issues. Heck, I have even run over it and it still hasnt caused a single problem. Its not cheap, but I don't think I will have to get another one for a long, long time if ever.
