    Camp Coffee

    Via if I’m backpacking or in a hurry, Costco has good size box them which makes them a little cheaper. A friend turned me onto the cheap plastic pour over, so that’s what I do camping and at home now. Quick, easier cleanup than a French press etc and good enough coffee for me.

    What is your every day carry knife and why? Does nostalgia supersede function?

    At work, an original old leatherman. On the weekends or whatever an old Camillus what-a-knife I picked up used in a $5.00 box at a gun show years ago, small and handy. When hunting I always carry a cheap nra little folding knife a good friend loaned me on a hunting trip. I couldn’t find my...

    VX-Freedom or other?

    Likes been said, if you already like the freedom maybe getting one in a 50 would be the ticket without breaking the bank. I put a vx3i 4.5x14 50 on my latest rifle and really like it, nice in low light. I prefer to get inside 250yds as well so it’s a little more magnification than I really need...

    How’s your fuel prices

    Yup, I just read the other day that our county had the dubious honor of the most expensive gas in the us… stuck here for another year maybe two.

    First stove for backpacking

    I’ve been using the same jetboil for a few years now and have had no problems with it. It is not the lightest stove but is a very efficient and reliable water boiler, which is all I use it for. I like the stability of the attached cup and it seems to work pretty good in the wind, I usually just...

    Question for leftys

    When you say left handed shooter I’m assuming that you means that in addition to a bow you’ve also previously shot a rifle left handed? If so and it worked out good, get a righty so it’s easier to sell later, most lefty’s just adapt easily though sometimes it’s funny to watch (my daughter is a...

    California B Zone Wilderness Blacktail

    Haven’t hunted the trinity alps, but did a backpack trip there once years ago and it was really cool Beautiful country, No idea on the deer numbers though. Anything that’s easy to draw in ca. will have plenty of pressure, but with a little more effort than the other guys which a lot of times...

    Best Caliber for Deer for 200+ Yard Shots?

    I’ll probably never get to hunt anything I’d need one for, but I do want one… just different enough, just common enough and plenty big enough.

    Curbing snacking

    I quit a long time ago. It is hard to eat with a chew In though, not impossible but not easy. 😬

    First Swarovski questions…

    Picked up a nice older pair of used el 10x42s for a $1k awhile back on consignment at a gun shop. You should be able to find a good deal on some used glasses, there’s always someone who has to have the latest greatest and getting rid of the old ones. I’ve looked through both several times and...

    Ya think? Well I guess the joke wasn’t as obvious as I thought, not sure how, but I guess it wasn’t.

    Best upland bird vest?

    This reminds me I need to check the wing works website to be disappointed again, it’s been awhile. I’ve been waiting to try one for awhil hopefully they start making them again. For now I’ve been using the same old Filson for 25 years. Still works though I’ve had to sew it up a few times. Longer...

    New Nemo Tensor Ultralight Durability

    I have the Nemo longbow and like it a lot so far. I’ve only used it a couple times but it is very warm but a little heavier than the tensor. I typically flip around side to side and found it to be plenty comfortable and seemed durable, I don’t have any issues with it. I typically would use a...

    Who's recently gotten into the outdoors and dropped $$

    Exactly.

    Who's recently gotten into the outdoors and dropped $$

    This is the right answer, then move up to a decent used or cheap new rifle like a ruger American with a decent scope that with a good pair of binos the rest can be filled in with regular backpacking gear. Camo “systems” don’t matter, regular darker colored outdoor clothes are fine and mil...

    Freezer monitor / alarm Wi-Fi

    I looked into those after the door on our freezer was cracked open all day after something inside kept it from closing completely. They all seemed to have reviews that were all over the place. I ended up just getting a child safety lock like this one...
