    New KUIU

    Thanks for explaining this Marc, saved us a bunch of calls. Good talking to you.

    New KUIU

    The material is quieter and feels much more durable than I would have thought by looking at the initial photos and description. You cannot actually see the Micro Dots from the outside like some of the cheaper hot weather fabrics out there. They can only really be seen by holding the garment up...

    New KUIU

    Juan, your Tiburon will ship well before the Bino Harness even if both are on preorder. And you won't have to wait too long for the Yukon Gaiters either. Also, jquarnberg, you should be glad you didn't drop your Tiburon preorder to wait on reviews. It is a very sound product and material...

    Which bino harness?

    KUIU has a very nice harness on the way as well. You can read about it in the most recent issue of Elk Hunter Magazine where they stack it up against the FHF and Sitka. It's expected to be available come July.

    Lowa renagade vs. Solomon quest

    I went through one pair of Lowa Renegades in the past 2 seasons each. I'm talking sole coming off in the front and big holes in the sides. The only reason I got a second pair was because they were so comfortable, I thought it might be worth the less-than-impressive longevity. After the second go...

    Ethics of the front shoulder shot on Mule Deer

    "Front" shoulder? Where is a deer's back shoulder located?

    Bedding my rifle today

    Good luck, or congrats if you're already finished. I have done 3 and like others have mentioned the first one was scary. Luckily it turned out great and my Model 70 .30-06 went from a 2" gun to a .25" gun (my best 3 shot group since bedding). The photo below was my first 3 shot group after...

    Food packing station gets an overhaul

    How do you not scrounge on all of your backpacking food supplies while hanging out and doing everyday things around the house? Or do you? I would have a hard time not grabbing a handfull of bars every time I walked out the door.

    Reno hike

    Just realized I've got a wedding in Tahoe to be at the weekend of June 1st... I spoke too soon.

    Reno hike

    I will definitely try to make it up there, the date doesn't matter to me, as long as its a weekend.

    New tripod pan head option

    Steve, have you used it with binos mounted atop? It looks like the long handle can be removed, and all elevation and windage tension is done by levers on the head and not the handle... correct? I think I might order one through you tomorrow.

    Grabit. Installation

    The backcountry forum should be re-named the 'Kifaru technical Q and A forum'! (Not a knock on anyone in particular, just saying).

    CA Guys

    The past couple years NV results have come out prior to the CA deadline.

    HighCamp came a little early!

    When was your ship date supposed to be? Mine is just over 2 weeks away, it would be sweet if it was early like yours! Looks good!

    Pure Elevation Productions Full Draw Film Tour teaser vid

    Sounds pretty cool, I will plan on making it.

    Pure Elevation Productions Full Draw Film Tour teaser vid

    Really nice work as usual Steve. I am thinking about going to the showing in Reno on May 4th. I looked over the Full Draw Film Tour website, but couldn't really get an idea on how things work. I assume all of the films are full length, but maybe you can give us an idea on how long the average...

    Girlfriend's First Bird Down- Archery!

    Haha... yeah it was kind of a quickie (hunt) before getting together with the family so I told her to wear whatever would speed up the process of getting ready after the hunt. She was trying to hide them for the field photos but I snuck that shot in there when she wasn't looking!

    Girlfriend's First Bird Down- Archery!

    It's been quite some time since I've cared to hunt turkeys, so I haven't payed much attention to decoys or anything. Looks like Dave's stuff has really taken off. Not sure I am quite willing to pay the price tag for a pair, but I can see how they would be very effective and fun to hunt over.

    Girlfriend's First Bird Down- Archery!

    Nice DW! Spring is in the air my friend. What decoys are those? They look way better than my flock.

    If you tripod mount your binos (straight), do you still go angled spotter?

    +3, never been an issue to swap between an angled spotter and binos on the tripod while seated in the same spot. It's only about 6" difference on the center post.
