    Western Mountaineering Badger GWS- Worthless- a review

    All the urban outdoorsman I talk with in downtown Denver swear by their Western Mountaineering bags. Lots of them say they won’t even zip them up even when it’s below zero because they get too hot. I‘m not sure what the R value of a flattened cardboard box is, but that’s what they using for a...

    Drift Boat Newbie

    The comment about guiding your buddies is accurate. Rowing constantly gets to be a drag after a while… Even if you try to teach someone how to row, it takes them a looooong time to learn to keep the boat a consistent distance off the bank. Also, you’ll end up rowing a lot out frustration...

    Drift Boat Newbie

    I’ve owned numerous drift boats, and guided out of them for more than 20 years. If you’re consistently floating a river with a lot of bigger wave trains, I’d buy a raft before I’d buy an older high side. The width of a newer low profile drift boat is going to be wider than most older high side...

    Mathews phase4 29&33

    Gracias. ~$700 bucks for the front, back bar, and disconnect is certainly up there but comparable to what tournament guys are paying for bars. The bridgelock system is like batteries for cordless tools. The tool itself isn’t too expensive, but when you invest in a few batteries for that brand...

    Mathews phase4 29&33

    I keep seeing the price of the stabilizers mentioned, but haven’t seen a price. Anyone have what a front, back bar, and disconnect is going to cost?

    Mathews, if you think you perfected the bow then don't make it worse.

    You forgot to mention that grip and the strings… I think it’s nearly universally accepted that those Zebra strings are junk, and that Mathews grips could use some improvement.

    Matt Rinella for president

    I bet a few of them heard about that gal who killed a husky after mistaking it for a wolf pup, or that dentist who killed Cecil the lion, though.

    Did Bowmar buy PSE?

    Could you imagine being employed by PSE and finding out Bowmar, or Bowmar and Greg Poole, were going to be your bosses?

    Did Bowmar buy PSE?

    Interesting. I don’t stay too current on some of this stuff, so consider me now a little better informed. Dudley going to Mathews would be noteworthy if that actually happens and is the big name your rep was referring to.

    Did Bowmar buy PSE?

    I’m sure there a lots of people who won’t buy a PSE now, and maybe even a few shops will dump the line. However, I doubt the general dislike among some of us for Bowmar, and many of us choosing not to buy a PSE because of him would amount to too much of a decline in sales for PSE. Plus, Levi...

    Reminder on Forum Rules

    I understand the mods position, but why not just can the posters who can’t follow the board’s existing rules? Even in this discussion about censorship, there’s been some back and forth between members that are juvenile and unnecessary. Ryan says he preferred the size of membership when it was...

    Unimaginable 120 yard shot on bull

    Hate to break it to you, but probably 85% of the non-western guys coming on this site have been inspired by what they’ve seen on tv and from Instagram and been told that even though they’re novices - they can do it, too.

    This is why we cant have nice things

    Janis knew that Instagram post and the explanation behind it were bound to create some opposing opinions. I can only imagine the echo chamber that the Meateater corporate offices must be if any of their staff have gotten to the point where they believe they can justify taking a potentially less...

    This is why we cant have nice things

    I’m sure she’s been informed she killed a dog by now, but could you imagine what some taxidermist would say if she walked through the door with that thing?

    Jax Outdoors wont accept AR-15 FFL transfers!

    This is what I recall too, but Jax didn’t pull their ARs off the shelf or even destroy them. The decision to stop selling ARs was made with the caveat that Jax wouldn’t sell anymore ARs once their current inventory of them was sold. Jax essentially felt that in the interest of public safety -...

    Patagonia donated to fight climate change

    Yvon can’t win. You guys would be just as pissed if Patagonia would have been sold to Vista Outdoor brands.

    CPW releases map of potential wolf reintroduction area

    It does in areas like Summit County where there is little ranching occurring anymore. The wolves have to eat, and if you purposely relocate wolves to an area with no ranching to mitigate predation on livestock, you‘ve got to have a food source to ensure the reintroduction is successful.
