    Firslite issues

    Not sure. Have never heard of that, but they must have some reason. Did you try going to the site and chatting with someone online? You will get a FL employee any time during regular business hours. If that falls through, what you need is a buddy in the US who will ship the items to you.

    MR quick draw bino harness

    Here is my thoughts. I ordered on up from BO and it came in yesterday. I have pair of Swaro 8x32 EL's, which are fairly compact bino. The good: I like the overall material, weight, and comfort of the shoulder/back straps on the harness. The lid also completely enclosed and looks to be just...

    Kifaru vs Stone Glacier - Specifically fit and frame comparison

    I ran an SG Krux frame for two seasons, and now going on my second year with a Kifaru platform with hunting frame. Comparing the two, I actually prefer the SG frame design with the diagonal and vertical stays creating the "X" in the frame. It really allowed you to crank down the load lifters...

    Kifaru Pack System

    I tend to go the other direction, and just get a bag big enough to handle everything I need to do. A 5000 - 6000 cu pack cinches down nicely, and can be used for everything from a day pack to week long trips. I have used the DT2 and 22 Mag bags, and just purchased a Reckoning for this season...

    Backpacking Carry Options For a .44 Revolver

    I use a blade tech with teklok for my S&W 329PD. Attaches to any belt or molle webbing. Easy on and off so you can swap from pack to belt if there is ever the need, and has adjustable cant. I wear mine cross draw on my left hip belt, which I think is actually quicker from a normal walking...

    Photography- one photo a day

    I've picked up another hobby to get me through the winter months. Refurbishing old axes and learning some basic leatherwork.

    Hats off to Ruta Locura

    That's an angle I didn't think of. Good for them. I wonder if there are any companies boycotting the Western Hunting expo.

    Backcountry Turkey?

    Pluck, gut, and hang. Leave a spur on one leg if you need proof of sex. Not much different than shooting an elk in September, except its a lot less meat. I wouldn't have any reservations hanging it in the shade, packing in the snow, or putting a creek for a day or two. Whatever the best...

    Your Workout Attitude?

    There was a time where real workouts were a part of my life, but I haven't been in a gym in several years now. I spend too much time indoors as it is, and going to the gym was just a drag so I stopped. Year round, there is always something else I would rather be doing than spending time in a...

    Best Elk Calls

    As someone who has a lot of problem with fitting diaphragm calls, would just like to add there are many of different shapes/sizes. The differences are subtle when you look at them, but make a big difference when trying to call. Getting one that fits your mouth best will give you the best...

    New public land hunter?

    I'm no expert, but when looking at a total new place or state to hunt I start with the draw statistics and harvest statistics for that particular state. Many states now have some nice sites that let you sort this data by animal, weapon, season, OTC, etc. Compare that with public access maps...

    Going Frog Gigging Next weekend, need some recipes

    I've only ever had them fried with simple egg and flour batter. Would love to try and smoke some. Marinate over night in your favorite brine then throw on the Traeger.
