    Help with Kuiu setup for September elk hunt

    Pretty much starting from scratch. Hunt MI white tails from a tree stand, so mobility/camping stuff wasn't necessary. What I have for my bow and rifle will be sufficient for now until I learn more. I have quality optics (Swaro 10x42) and decent Danner boots, Kuiu Yukon gaiters. I picked up a...

    Help with Kuiu setup for September elk hunt

    I'm building my first elk hunt kit. Building points in CO so probably going OTC, preferably archery. Most likely by myself, planning to carry as much with me as possible to stay mobile and get as far in as I can to avoid as much hunting pressure as I can. Picked up the attack pants and axis...

    Help with Kuiu setup for September elk hunt

    Curious about why the pass on softshell? I bought the axis jacket for my first elk hunt kit this year. I could still return it and go a different route. TIA

    Marsupial Enclosed Bino Harness Non Magnetic vs Magnetic

    That's crazy! Never would have imagined that small magnet would have affected a phone mapping system like that.

    Marsupial Enclosed Bino Harness Non Magnetic vs Magnetic

    Any input on the non magnetic Marsupial enclosed bino harness? I've been eyeing getting the magnetic enclosed harness but just saw the non magnetic version today. Is the non magnet worth the wait since its not in stock? I was also looking at the Kuiu pro, if anyone thinks that's a better option...

    Crossbow Elk Hunt Colorado

    He has the R29. Shouldn’t be any worse than carrying a rifle with how compact it is. Weight is probably similar

    I would be happy to contribute when I have anything competent to say. Total newbie when it comes to elk hunting, and certainly no expert in any other hunting field. I guess I could join the internet hoards who have diarrhea of the mouth and ****post, but that's not really what I'm looking to do...

    I get where you're coming from. But as a newbie trying to find new gear, I have very little valuable input until I've tried some of the techniques/equipment I read about over and over. Buying gear in the classifieds isn't possible until we reach the 10 post thresholds, though, so post like these...

    Crossbow Elk Hunt Colorado

    I would like to archery hunt elk in CO this year with my father. But he had shoulder surgery last year and it appears the rehab is going to take longer than expected and I don't think he'll be able to draw his bow by September. I found the ADA Accommodation Permit Application and have him...
