    Which pack? I don't get it

    I have yet to use mine in the field, but I think you would be very happy with that choice. Believe it or not, the Argali can get real small!!! and with two side pockets it can be Huge! With this setup you can cover many situation with one pack. I will be using very similar to you, family...

    Which pack? I don't get it

    Here are some pic's of the Kifaru Argali with 3 & 4 belt pouchs on bag, with and without guide lid. You can see the folded down snow collar works great. Best of luck on your search

    Which pack? I don't get it

    I was lucky enough to go to a sports show and try them all on in the same day. For me, they were all very similar but the Mystery Ranch was the least comfortable. I thought the Kifaru was a little more plush, the Stone Glacier was a little lighter. You can't go wrong with either pack and...

    Anyone running the kifaru tahr

    I just picked up the argaili and had attachment points added to be similar to Tahr. I really like the attachments point on the snow collar lid. Also had a side zipper added. I haven't spend any time in the field, but I can tell I'm going to love this setup. It's amazing how small these...

    The Kifaru Argali, Markhor and Tahr

    Could someone please post some pictures of the Tahr with a belt pocket and or a side pocket with the bag compressed. I have only seen pictures of these bags fully loaded. Most of the time that I will be using, it will be in day hunt mode and I'm concerned with the bag compressed the pockets...

    Elk Behavior Question

    I have limited experience but I bumped some elk and a bull on Friday and seemed like a good spot. The next day I could hunt was Tuesday morning, so I hiked in the dark and let out a bugle at first light, arrowed the bull I saw on Friday not 50 yds maybe closer to where he was on Friday...

    Firearm for backup?

    Bear spray is a great option, but I feel more comfortable having a sidearm with me as well. Someone once told me, you can drop a revolver in mud and it will most likely shoot, pistols are more finicky and need more maintenance. For those reason I stick with the revolvers. Good luck on...

    Day Pack VS Cinched Down 75L Pack for Elk Hunting?

    If it was me, leave the day pack at home. I was fortunate enough to go on my first archery elk hunt this year. I first tried a Barneys frame (in case I got something) and had a Badlands 2800 attached. Note, I wanted to get a Kifaru Duplex and bag but couldn't get in time as we moved from Pa...

    The Kifaru Argali, Markhor and Tahr

    I am looking for my first Kifaru pack, I have always had a zipper at the bottom and like the highcamp because of it. The 3 compression straps of the Markhor seems like it could be real handy. Will I miss not having a zipper at the bottom? Could one be added? Also how well does the...

    Better Holster Solution for Glock 22 & S&W 329PD?

    Yup there are some draw backs. This is the most comfortable solution I found while still having protection quickly after dropping a pack but I am a greenhorn. This setup wouldn't work as well without the ultra lite bino harness. I can adjust the binos to ride higher on my chest so there is...

    Better Holster Solution for Glock 22 & S&W 329PD?

    CC The nice thing about the guides choice is there is adjustment to where the gun is placed. I drew the bow a few times at home to make sure everything was ok... till you asked I forgot it was on me when i shot my elk. I did have a Uncle Mikes, but it felt like you had a maze of straps to...

    Better Holster Solution for Glock 22 & S&W 329PD?

    I used the diamond D holster this year as well. It was my first year to ever hunt elk with gun or bow so take my advise with a grain of salt. I wrestled with the same question for a while and went with the chest holster. I was quite happy even carrying a 629 which is much heavier. The...

    The 2014 Kifaru EMR II

    Looks like a nice pack but may be bigger than what I need. The High camp might be a better fit but that front zip is nice! Any chance you will be adding the front zip to the high camp line in the future?

    Steve Chappell’s Matriarch Cow Call

    I have the temptress and after seeing Steve's website makes this look like a must have. Just curious if anyone has used it and what they think. This will be my first archery elk hunting trip so I have no experience hunting elk but have hunted turkey's for a long time and know how they can...
