Tent, pad, sleeping bag on on a budget?
I got a used Marmot Never Summer 0* down bag for under $100 on eBay it is like new. Just have to be patient and wait for a deal. The only thing in my system I would have done differently at this point is a wide pad. I toss and turn a lot and end up sliding off my pad.- BDRam16

Finally got action, what did I do wrong?
Man I had a gobbler going for an hour this spring but he wouldn’t move. I finally decided to ditch the boots and stalk in. Belly crawl when I get close to where I thought he was and it turns out he crossed the little fire lane and had I been looking right instead of left I would have sealed the... -

For those that Strap their bow to their pack for the walk in
If your bottom cam is hanging low below the bag flip your bow upside down and now that cam will be higher up and it should be safe. If I have to do mine on the bag I get it settled and then hang my lid over it as extra protection. -
Finally got action, what did I do wrong?
As many others have mentioned, I would have moved up once you had a response. If he was a couple hundred out I would have ditched the pack and gone up at least 100 yards as fast/quiet as possible if the wind was in your favor. -

What temp rating
Technically correct, but they are designed to be used with a down bag where the down will still expand into the gaps and be warmer. If you use this with a quilt with no insulation underneath it will absolutely under perform.- BDRam16

Affordable hot tent/ tipi
That’s what I’m currently running but as it comes without the stove. Had a stove and planned on adding a stove jack but decided it wasn’t worth it for my current plan. -

Aim Low on Elk for Archery?
The fastest I’ve ever seen an animal go down from an arrow is when a large bore artery is hit. Faster than a double lung or heart shot personally. Sprint like crazy for 5ish seconds, stop, stumble and wobble, down for the count. There are far more large bore arteries lower on the body than... -
Elk hunting hypothetical
Ya I mean now that I know that I won’t do it anymore, but I’ve never had an issue. I have it strapped to the back of my seat instead of in a case because I shoot it pretty much every day and I’ve never noticed limb or string issues. I keep up with waxing my string but had I not read this thread... -
