    Time for a member re-introduction! Where are you from+a fun fact about yourself.

    From: West Richland, WA Fun fact: I’ve been lucky enough to harvest 3 goats, bull moose, bighorn ram, and ewe from my home state since 1972....yeah, I’m that old! Still in the running for my last “OIL” goat too....hopefully while I can still climb up to them!

    Water bladder vs bottles

    1L empty Pepsi bottles. Probably the cheapest and lightest option. They fit pretty easily in an outside pocket. I've had the same three for nearly 10 years now. Mine are what they used to call a "Big Slam" with a larger mouth....I wish they still sold them.

    Small item organization

    Don't laugh, but zip locks do work very well and along those lines, you can get more durable ones by using the heavier plastic zip-type bags that kids use for school supplies like pencils, erasers, rubber bands, etc.

    Kuiu vs Stone Glacier vs Kifaru down products

    Hey Trout, I'm curious about your Goosefeet Gear pants. What are the spec's, material weight, fill weight? Thanks.

    Pulling vs. Carrying

    Another thing to consider is you can't use anything with wheels in a wilderness area, if that's where you're thinking of using one.

    Kodiak Goat trip

    Super story....congrats to both of you! In 1972 at 14, I drew a goat tag the first time I put in here in Washington. My Dad put me onto a nice Billy that fall and I managed to take my fist head of big game after 4 years of hunting. My Dad is 83 now and there have been many great hunts between...

    Kuiu Venture 2300

    You should move this to the classifieds as a "want to but" (WTB) add. You may get more response as there have been a few in there over the last few weeks.

    WTB Kuiu ultra frame and bags

    Just in case you think you might want a smaller bag, I have a brand new Icon Pro 2200 Phantom/Steel color.

    New Kuiu bag on older frame

    Tell them when you're buying it and they will send you an adapter kit for free. I've gotten a couple of them in the last two years, no problem.

    Murphy’s mix in pitted barrel.

    I usually run a brush in the barrel and a smaller one in the powder chamber to break up any crud in there first. Then I pull the nipple, plug the threads with a tightly rolled patch (or just plug the flashhole on a flintlock), and fill the barrel partway. Then I upend the barrel back and forth a...

    KUIU Pro 6000 vs 7000 LT

    Another thought....From what you're going to be doing, I'd give some serious thought to the LT5500 by itself. The size should work for the number of days and they compress down very well for day use. The lid can also be removed from the 5500 after you reach camp to skinny it down further.

    No more traditional rifles

    A little bit of everything, depending on the hunt....whatever it takes! The longest shot I've had was about 45 - 50 yards and the closest was the little mulie from about 30 feet. Antelope would definitely be tough without much break in terrain or cover and 100 yards is a long way for my old...
