    All Terrian tire that's not All Terrian

    My wife had ko3’s on her tundra for 42k, then the Falken AT for 43k, now had had toyos for about 20k, all 3 seem smooth, quiet and getting good life (very little off-road) I go through tires way faster on my baby pickups, but currently have ko3’s on my new taco and ran a set on my zr2 (both of...

    Podium HIT inserts

    As noted, stronger material and versatility. I like 175gr total up front, so I like a 50gr insert and 125gr heads Just depends on what you’re looking for. I don’t like being stuck to heavy heads and light inserts, there are a lot more options for 125gr heads I’m just gluing everything together...

    Bullet selection for BAR in 308

    I think you would like the sst, they are a pretty nasty bullet and seem to shoot well in any rifle I have seen them shot

    Exo Mountain K4?

    Yes, no lid 3600 will be the shortest. It will not be cumbersome at all for day trips

    Exo Mountain K4?

    @spearo A lidless 3600 will give you the best head/brush clearance too, when I’m not using the 2200 elk hunting, it’s a 3600 with no lid, and that will likely be all I use for elk going forward for that reason I put the lid in the bag sometimes when I just want more organization than the...

    Exo Mountain K4?

    No worries leaving the lid, unless I’m strapping a head to my pack, I don’t even use the lid. You are good to go leaving the lid

    Exo Mountain K4?

    I’m not following What are your concerns about hauling meat without a lid? I have put my lid in my main bag when hauling meat when I just wanted to get going, having a lid isn’t necessary for hauling meat Are you talking about attaching a head to the pack?

    Knife Sharpeners for the Unskilled

    I had a 3 stage chefs choice stainless sharpener, and it did a good job, and lasted for a long time before the springs wore out What i didn’t like was it made me lazy and I wasn’t staying practiced sharpening a knife manually so when it died, I went back to diamonds, stones, ceramic and a strop...

    Exo Mountain K4?

    I’m 6’ long legs, not very long torso, and I have the 25” and head clearance seems as good as the 24” kifaru, of course that changes regardless with a full bag and lid, but the frame itself has really good head clearance for 25” I’m going to get the longer stays to use after archery elk season...

    Yeti/Mystery Ranch

    It will be a metcalf with a yeti logo for 750$ I haven’t a clue, but if they self sabotage, I won’t miss them. I think the pop up is pretty genius, but it seems like the people who make it don’t really understand their own niche, and what makes it a cool and unique design, so I don’t really...

    2025 Mathew’s Bows

    I think all of the switchweight cams are stiff drawing, but also linear and smooth, just stiff drawing compared to other bows. I like the draw cycle on my lift, and that feel is getting more common lately, which isn’t bad, but takes getting used to for me At the same draw weight, a mathews is...

    Your Elk Hunting Rifle

    I have never elk hunted with a rifle, but my wife and lots of friends do. My wife uses a 6.5 creed, it’s a savage UL in an xlr with a swfa 3-9. Wish it was a tikka but it hasn’t given us any trouble yet, and it does shoot very well The other elk gun is a 20ga slug gun with Hornady sst slugs...

    Day Pack Weight- How much is too much?

    Depending on the season, archery elk in September this year, 19# all in (no weapon/binos/etc) Later season with my wife, 34# Those are the only recent actual weights I’ve taken, but it’s fair to say it fluctuates between the two most of the time. I could always shave some weight there, but I...

    2024 OFFICIAL ELK MEAT POLE

    That’s funny, I also have a forky on my bucket list. Roosie forks are rare creatures. I passed one years ago opening morning, first couple minutes of light opening day at under 10yds, but I let him go because he was in velvet (and I wanted to hunt more than 5 minutes) Years before that I had...

    How many have missed animals due to a failed scope?

    I know I have made a bad shot from losing zero, liver shot a buck a few years ago, ended up shooting him 4 times not understanding what was going on. The last shot I decided to shoot him in the neck to get him dead and that shot ended up being a good shot behind the shoulder, other 3 were back...

    Why Load Shelf?

    I have packed enough meat in the bag to know I don’t like it, it’s a messy pain in the ass. I want a quick, easy to access and secure load shelf. I still put a contractor bag over the game bag for the trip to my pickup, but it almost always springs a leak somewhere, so I assume blood will cover...

    2025 Mathew’s Bows

    I’m with ya. Hoyt is always solid, I have shot them more than any brand and never had a problem, I even liked the Hoyt’s on the years that most didn’t (I would have zero issues shooting an rx1 for the rest of my days) I also seem to prefer the only Mathews that have problems (chill era and...
