    Hunting mid morning and into the afternoon

    IMO on wind… I understand thermals. I like to start out low and work my way up in the morning. But I don’t pay much attention until I locate elk, usually by bugling. Then I play the wind like my life depended on it. Until then, I’m just working to locate and I think many people don’t venture...

    turning a bull around

    Good stuff! Thanks for sharing. After dogging him for that long, and being in and around the cows, I think I would have considered a couple things... 1. Bull calling cows bugle; knowing I was close to his cows and creating a threat. 2. Let them settle a bit and move over to a cow call that...

    Sevr Broadheads

    My Sevr dilemma… I was broadhead tuning several weeks ago and shot a sever 1.5 from 60 yards into a Haybale. It bounced completely off the bale and came 5 feet back. I did not hit a string on the bale. I presume it did this because it was in practice mode and the wings stay engaged reducing...

    Bows "losing zero" ?

    Sharpie/pencil whatever is very helpful. I also make sure everything is nice and tight before final arrow tuning process. A good quality sight can take a beating. My Spot Hogg is one such sight. It’s built like a tank, heavier than others, and can be used as a baton when the world ends. But I...

    Hunting Recent Burns

    Elk were in the burn while stumps were still smoking. They were everything coming up when new stuff started growing even though they had other feed nearby. They love it. I’ve watched bucks eating charcoal. I like burns. Plus I get free face camo from the trees. Great cover washes off easy.

    Iron will broadhead through my leg

    Yikes! You and David Brinker could to do a podcast on your broadhead observations. 🤣 He put one in his leg while hunting with the Elk101 Crew. He ended up being OK, and I am glad you are OK, too! I hunt solo and always carry a tourniquet, quick clot, and an Israeli bandage, and other goodies for...

    Who else couldn't get Kenetreks to work

    I wore out my first pair of Kenetreks after probably 500 miles. My 2nd pair has probably 250 miles and I just bought a 3rd pair for the future. Hardscabble non insulated. They work well for me and are one of the few manufacturers that will make boots in smaller sizes. They will also rebuild, for...

    Durston X-Mid Pro 1p DCF Tent

    @dandurston Can the X-mid shells be used a a quick emergency shelter (like configured into a flat or plow-style shelter with a couple stakes) to ride out a short-lived rain storm on a mid-day hunt? I realize I would have to remove the inner nest). I'm not really wanting to carry a separate tarp...
