    Get into shape without the gym

    Since i have limited availability to a gym, I have started doing home workouts. You would be surprised how many lifts you can do with a tire, concrete blocks and sand bags. Add in some hills if you have some and let your imagination come up with hard ways to move weight. The blocks increase...

    Lathrop and Sons Review ***Updated 5/7/20***

    Let me know what you are running into as well, I put my order in Jan 9th and also followed up a couple weeks ago and now i can't get a response to a phone call. Just a "I will call you back with an update" and don't receive a call back. My hunt is coming up quickly and this is making me nervous

    Best Value in Used Compound Bows

    This is coming from a guy that bought a flag ship bow at full price from a dealership, wasn't happy with how they set it up and learned myself (mistakes included) on a brand new bow and 2 sets of strings, and a cam later... Get a bow with a dual yoke cable system (the cables split in a Y at...

    Top two mountain cartridges

    Thought there would be more variety: I am falling in line with what most others are saying. I have and like a 243, 25-06 and 260. Then jump up to a 30-06 and 300 WM. I have an addiction to building and getting really really tight groups in rifles so i keep building more to take on a new task...

    New to Archery: So many questions

    How easy should it be for me to draw the bow. At 70#, there is a bit of strain to pull straight back. I'd like to shoot at 70, and figured that it would build some strength as well, but I don't know if it will cause form issues? Response: how easy should it be: you should be able, on a cold...

    TSS for turkeys?

    I will first off say that I am using hevi-shot in my 12 ga gun and TSS in my 10 ga gun. Yes these shells are expensive and I question the same. My girl friend uses a 20 ga with long beard shells, cheaper version of these high end turkey shells. 99% of the time, they are way over kill. I kill...

    Stiff or flexible boots: what do you prefer?

    I have always have ankle rolling issues, so i go for a stiff upper and foot support. I like a "softer" shank, as i like to roll over branches and rocks with my feet. I am going into the mountains this fall for the second time and trying a stiffer shank and form fit insole this round as my arches...

    Thunder chickens!!!

    By far one of my most looked forward to hunts. Can never get enough of sitting at the very first crack of light and hearing one sound off in a tree 100 yds from me. Gives me chills just thinking about it, 21 days, 20 hrs...but who's counting

    Decisions of a 23 year old/2019 Hunts

    With a minimal amount of information and not knowing you at all, you can find ways to make money. You cant make those memories and opportunities again. This is coming from a 27 yr old...and so far so good on my decisions HA There are jobs related to what you do out in that area (cousin did the...

    Getting From Anchorage to Tok

    I use the term "friend" loosely, more or less hoping extended friends of friends can provide some help HA, but was hoping you were on the same time frame to throw in some more coaxing to assist I will be with a guide, going for sheep. He has his own pilot license to get us to the mountains.

    Boot Purchase_Lathrop & Sons Mountain Hunter

    Glad i wasn't the only one who thought they were crazy spending these prices on boots. I have been a guy that buys the cabelas bargain cave boots for roughly $150 for years and the boots only last a year maybe. Knowing i have a few critical hunts coming up (Dall sheep being one) I searched and...

    Draw Length Discussion/Form

    Lets see if i can relay this correctly: What you need to look at from a high level stand point is that your bow arm and release arm are in line. Short story is that you will not induce torque on the release and bow which would cause your arrow to fly off line at further distances and also the...
