    What is everyone using for a smartwatch?

    have a garmin. bought a galaxy since the garmin isn't in my mind really a smart watch, the galaxy sits in the dresser drawer. The garmin is just better and I really don't need all the other stuff.

    wait, so now I need to pack two spare windows along with extra tires. I am going to need a bigger truck for next season. Looks like you had fun, frustrations are part of the deal at times.

    How do you guys successfully hunt wallows

    I like to be active when hunting but I usually try and end up near a wallow when I lunch or take a mid day break. Never really had any luck doing it that way but it seems like a good idea if I am going to be taking a break for awhile or things aren't really productive, sitting by a wallow is...

    Sitka drama??

    I don't see the point in handles on the bottom of a jacket, but I guess you just got to patent it first and sales will roll in.

    Best bang for the buck waterproof tarp for the pnw?

    adding my vote for the borah tarp. Wish I would have gotten the next size up and likely will for next season, but this one has saved the day many of times during this rainy summer and just lives in my bag now.

    Oregon West Side Roosevelt Elk

    I don't call that often when hunting the coast range. Sometimes it can be effective, but it seems like, at least the areas I hunt, the elk are pretty pressured. I try and stay quiet and hunt in pockets that they get pushed into that most guys pass up. I've pulled a few groups out of thick stuff...

    Budget hot tent & stove?

    if you sew your own in, focus more on the location instead of the stress of putting in a stove jack. After doing my own, though happy with the results, I wish I'd have paid more attention to the location and how I was going to use the tent.

    Hunting in the 1980s and 90s

    late 80s early 90s were great and not too crowded where I hunted. almost everything was otc tags. mid 90s there was a big swing, noticed it first in duck hunting and then it just seemed to spread across all forms. I remember being 14 or 15 shooting a compound bow, with fingers since I didn't...

    Longbow or recurve?

    Always preferred my recurve but recently bought a takedown longbow and it is much more comfortable to shoot. I've been getting a really sharp pain in my shoulder when pulling back the recurve but not the longbow. Haven't shot the longbow enough to use it instead of the recurve this year, but I...

    Talk me out of a NeoAir XTherm NXT

    Love mine. Have used other ones in summer when I thought the xtherm was overkill and regretted it almost every time. It is a little noisy, but I just snore louder to make up for it.

    First Lite Ad

    Odd view of mt goat hunting from someone who has done about 35 of them. I'd look for other species if I was as disinterested as your post suggests.

    Evacuation Insurance

    Certainly something to consider as an Alaska resident...who just bought a zoleo..adulting sucks. Thanks for the article. Kind of eye opening how little I've consider these things. Now that I've started becoming slightly aware that I am not young anymore, as with all things, the responsibility...

    Juiced to the gills ?

    This came out when I was still in high school. We used to have Atlas testing, but as soon as we saw this movie, there was a lot of talking from the coaches and admin about steroids and other drugs. Hey coach, you took us as a team to see that movie, why are you on us all of the sudden.
