    Marlin 336 .32wpsl (favorite gun) Ruger American 30-06 (do it all) Remington 870 12 ga field and rifled barrel (does the job) Old CVA in-line muzzleloader, no clue what model. (Reliable track driver) I wouldn’t go hungry if all my other guns disappeared. No animal I can’t kill and no place I...

    Truck Camping Toyota Pickup/Tacoma

    Tundra, 6.5’ bed with a soft topper and a wide cot. With the right sleep system it is as comfy as home. It is my preferred sleeping arrangement for run and gun in new states/areas.

    Cheap trail cameras

    With Li-ion batteries cheap tasco and muddy ($30) cams will last over 12 months as long as you aren’t getting a million false triggers every day. This year I used the cheapest batteries possible (Rayovac or Amazon) and cams have lasted 6 months still going…

    What would you do for free gear?

    I posted on the thread that it looks nice or something to that affect (that’s my honest 2 minute opinion on what I saw). I normally would not have posted anything. Since I have no plan on buying a pack right now. I could not imagine posting criticism for a product I have never seen or...

    New From San Diego

    Welcome. I eat nothing but Mexican food whenever I go to SD. It’s not pretty by the end of the trip but 100% worth it. 🤣

    Turkey population

    I can tell you we went thru this down here in FL starting about 12-15 years ago. We are finally coming out the other side and populations are rebounding about as fast as they disappeared. I can’t put my finger on what changed. But I know we were losing nests because I quit seeing hens with...

    What to eat while truck camping

    I stop in a nearby town on day 1 and buy 2 large pizzas. Stuff my face and throw all leftovers into big ziplocks. I can take some in the back pack. I can eat some at the truck. I hate having any extra cooking or cleaning to do while hunt camping. I usually have sandwich stuffs, apples/oranges...

    Camofire Heads Up-shipping insurance fee scammy

    They also hit you on each item you add to a combined order if you don’t de-select it. Idk if they cover the whole combined order if you use it initially or only each item you select it for. Kind of confusing. I made my first camofire order a few weeks ago and the shipping took a couple weeks...

    Retire to FL, SC, AZ (or other warm state) and still hunt?

    Don’t come to Florida, that is going in the wrong direction for hunting opportunity. Well, quality hunting opportunity. If you move to FL you will likely quit hunting or travel out of state to do it. So I would recommend staying up in the panhandle, so you are close to out of state...

    First real pack

    Shoot I just re-read your post and my first reply was pretty poor. When I said large bag, my large bag is 7800ci I have another bag in the 3200 range and it is absolutely fine as a day pack. Or something bigger if it can be broken down as a system like others said… I don’t think you can go...

    First real pack

    I am not mr super backpacker… but IME a large bag used as a day bag is pretty freaking annoying. If there will be very minimal times this would be necessary I wouldn’t worry much about it. But if it’s going to be a regular thing, I would want a dedicated day bag even if I waited a year or two to...
