    Vortex vs Leupold Hunting Scope

    I wouldn’t choose either Leupold or Vortex, I like my rifle scopes to hold zero and work every time. But if I had to pick one between the 2, go with Leupold.

    Favorite mid layer hoodie

    I use the FL Kiln Merino Hoody for my mid-layer. With a light merino T underneath i use the setup for temp ranges of 50-0 degrees, the only difference is the type jacket I’ll use.

    Kenetrek Boots

    I have 2 pairs of Kenetrex mountain extremes, 1 non insulated and 1 400gram insulated. Love them. Used Danners before and I could destroy them in 1 hunting season. Bought a pair of Crispi Colorado’s looking for a lighter pair for hotter days, they felt good in the store but when using them they...

    Binocular Tripod Mount options

    I’ve use the Aziak Equipment bino clamp for my binos. It’s super light and doesn’t get in the way in my bino harness. Also I like having that both my spotting scope and binos are Arca-Swiss so I don’t need to carry any other attachments for connecting to my tripod.

    How much hunting does your wife let you get by with?

    My wife doesn’t limit the amount of hunting time. My limiting factor is work as I get 5 weeks off a year and I take 3 weeks for hunting. I could do more if I wanted but I like my 2 weeks of Hawaii time.

    Who wears rubber gloves to clean game ?

    I didn’t start using gloves until the last few years. Now I always use them since it’s nice not having to clean your hands with your drinking water if your not next to a creek.

    Vx5 3x15, vx6 3-18, or ??? For lightweight/long range rig. Opinions wanted.

    Another good option for the money in my opinion would be the Ziess V4 4-16x44. Have had mine for about 3 years and have beat the crap out of it. Always holds zero, dials perfectly every time and glass is good.

    Buying new elk rifle

    But I would vote for the 300 win, all major rifle manufactures chamber for it and lot of ammo options compared to other calibers.

    Buying new elk rifle

    I’ve shot elk with a 270wsm, 7mag, 7 rum, 300win, 300 rum over the years but if you are talking a dedicated smack down elk gun, the best caliber I love on elk is the 338 rum with a 250-300 grain projectile!

    where is your fitness lacking?

    Hey everyone! New to the forum. Mobility was my vote, but also believe if you have full range of motion you’re doing okay. I eat well 90% of the time (I still like to enjoy living) and am naturally pretty strong. One thing that I’ve learned over the years of hunting Hells Canyon for most of my...
