    Cold Weather Hunting Hat

    I have worn an orange Filson big game hat for many years. It's a great cap yet it will expand and give you excellent protection if you need it for bad or windy weather. The short brim will keep Sun out of your eyes but it's not so large that it will contact your string if you're a bow hunter. I...

    New Marlins

    I have owned a dozen Marlins over the last 45 years and the new Ruger made models are far and away the best in my opinion. Fit and finish is outstanding. A few slight ergonomic changes only add to it being one great package Straight Out of the Box. I currently have a 45-70 trapper Model and...

    Custom hats and sweatshirts

    I don't have a shop but I have run a large rifle shoot for 14yrs. I have bought about 750 custom shirts and maybe 150 hats from Custom Ink with ZERO issues. Extremely easy to use their free image/design center. Prices are very good, quality is exceptional as is their live American human being...

    What and how do you carry your sidearm in the highcountry?

    I wear my Wilson CQB 10mm with Underwood Hardcast 220's in a Diamond D rig literally everyday around my property and on my nightly 90 minute walkabouts with my canids. If I am hunting I wear my backpack right over the top of it with zero issues. I pack my 329 with either 305gr Underwood...

    What did you take to Africa?

    On my last trip to Zim I took a .450Nitro double rifle and a .416 Ruger Alaskan. Fourteen days with only dangerous game on the menu.

    Alaska/all around rifle

    Since you are primarily a bowhunter, and the rifle is mostly a tool for occasional utility use, make your life easy. Get a decent all weather 30-06 or 300win and never look back. Factory ammo is available everywhere with loads to take anything (large or small) in North America.

    What did you take to Africa?

    Kind of hard to make a recommendation without knowing the target species.

    Airgunning Grouse

    If hunting in Montana read the regs carefully. They are VERY specific about pellet type and velocity !

    (kind of serious) wolf hunting question

    I'm 100% convinced that recorded (and properly edited) INFANT human sounds would work for predator/ wolf calling. It's actually quite remarkable how many varieties of mammals make a very similar distress sound.

    Adventure Travel Advice, Please

    This is 100% correct. Both of you will appreciate the Simplicity of the Zoleo system. The convenience of not only a dedicated phone number but also a dedicated email address cannot be overstated. I have had a Zoleo for 4 years with zero issues and much more efficiency and connection speed than...

    Zoleo - discharging its battery in storage?

    I'm 3yrs into mine and seems to hold the charge well. Longest I've had it charged, then turned off was about 30 days. Still showed 4 lights (75-100%) when I hit the test button.

    Thought Experiment: bear defense

    My .450 Nitro double rifle in hand, Springfield Ronin 10mm in my chest rig. I've killed a lot of game with this rifle and both guns are my spring black bear rig.
