I had the chance to share a bear camp with Joe a few years ago when he was just getting into hunting. Not that I care what people do with their own time, but didn't see any drug use during the trip. On the very last night, after everyone had got their bears, we had a few beers around the...
Tomorrow, Saturday March 4th, they have their loyalty member event in store. At checkout you get to pop a balloon that has a discount of anywhere from 10-50% I think.
Mine was taken back in November 2012 in the Mount Hood National forest. It was the opening week of our late deer Archery season, but also still fall bear. In fact I had crossed a fresh set of bear tracks in the snow that morning, and followed his trail to within 80 before getting busted and...
You just have to run really fast. Remo Williams style.
They aren't going to prevent water from getting in if you stand in water thats over your boots for more than a few seconds, but the do a good job at preventing any oversplash getting in over the top and keeps the lower part of your pants...
I like gaiters, but don't take them on any backpack hunts. I find that if I need gaiters, rain pants are the better option. You will soaked walking through wet brush faster than anything, and gaiters only protect up to your calves. I don't want to carry both, and the rain pants are more...
Have had several shelters made from cuben fiber, aslo have some stuff sacks/dry bags, pullouts, a rain cover for my pack, and the bottom of one of my bivys. It is really popular in the high end backpacking/hiking community. You can find lots of products from companies like Zpacks and Mountain...
I don't shoot or rifle hunt much anymore, but I have a few in the closet.
My favorite is this beast:
.260 on 700 action
30" fluted Krieger Barrel
HS Precision Stock
Leupold Mark 4 8.5-25x50mm
Jewell Trigger
Why:
It's a tack driver
The only rifle I've ever shot at 1000 yards
So much fun to...
First time I've failed to draw a spring bear tag. SW Oregon already sold out also. Turkey's better watch out this year.
Has anyone else got 5 emails from ODFW with the results? I guess they just like rubbing it in that I didn't dray a tag.
My guess would be no, simply because Sitka has their own line of packs and it would be direct competition. The other camo pattersn offered Kifaru are from companies that do not produce packs. FL, Kryptek, etc.
I don't really want to die on the mountain, but if that is my fate it wouldn't really matter to me what happened to my body after I was gone. However, I'm sure my family would like closure and for their sake would hope that there was at least some evidence of my demise. It would certainly be...
I try to keep my hunting rig outfitted for emergencies, and at least a couple days worth of supplies if I happen to get stuck on the mountain. Here is what I carry in my truck. My rig is a 92 Ford Ranger extended cab with a cap on it, which has been the perfect little truck for me. I have...
I don't have any problem with people using them, but I view lighted knocks as a novelty. Without any other changes to arrow build, they reduce FOC by adding weight to the wrong end. If anything, they are likely to reduce arrow performance.
Do they make it easier to recover your arrow? Sure...
