    Rash and itchy after taking Yeti

    THIS! Not a big deal as for me it goes away within a few hours. However, I don't take supplements with niacin anymore, including Yeti, which suck becuz it gave me a nice kick.

    Kifaru Stays for the New Hunting Frame

    Having been running Kifaru for awhile and getting the new duplex hunting frame with composite and arrow stays in time for all my hunts this season, I kinda wish I went with the tacticle version looking back. To much flex in the new duplex frame with arrow stays for my taste, especially with...

    One man's thoughts. Exo related.

    Have you packed an animal out with it? That's the real test, even a school back pack feels fine with only 40lbs.

    Don't Post just to post

    I don't even respond to most threads now, enough people doing that, especially when your opinion is disregard off hand, I don't provide advice to justify why I do what I do. unfortunately I am not the only one who has been here for a while not posting as much.

    glad I'm not a newbie elk hunter

    I am a lot like Ross, I have been hunting elk for decades and I am always learning something new. I am lucky enough to hunt all kinds of animals here in Alberta but nothing gets me going like elk. And for any animal, its all about confidence, confidence that you can stay out as long as it take...

    Bikini frame no more???

    That looks awesome. Do you think it would better if the a paper went all the way to the top of the bag, making the top of the bag opening way bigger and making loading the T3 easy. My only complaint about the T3 is the small opening at the top of the bag.

    What rain cover for Kifaru packs

    I grabbed one of Jimmy,'s rain pack covers. At 2 Oz, and the quality stuff he makes, it was too hard to pass up. I usually don't use a pack cover since all my gear is organized in pullout and waterproof stuff sacks but it socks when your pack soaks through. Adds a tone of unique needed water...

    Any hunting platform duplex regrets

    No, I just used a single arrow in each sleeve. Maybe 2 arrows would be better but the composite stays fit sooooooo good I don't see myself going back.

    Bikini frame no more???

    I am with dotman on this one, but that didn't stop me from regretting selling my Bikini frame to a buddy. I regret it so much I scooped up a used Bikini frame off here at a great price. The bikini pared with my T3 bag or my 4800 has me at a more than capable scouting/back up set up at just a...

    Ultralight Duplex for normal-shaped backs?

    I have a normal back, i.e. I have a Butt. I hauled out big loads (120+)with the arrow stays and standard composite stays in the new Duplex frame this past season. No question, the composite stays were way more comfortable and stable for me. The arrow stays worked but I didn't like the flex you...

    Kifaru: Tactical or Hunter or UL frame?

    I run the Hunter frame, tried the arrow stay kit but the arrows are not for me, I like a more solid frame and the arrows do flex. Plus I got a butt so straight stays just don't work for me.

    Broadhead tuning & shooting form question

    yup dl to long, you can see that you are leaning back from the hips up. Nutz & Bolts over at AT has some great pics describing form and how to spot draw length issues.

    Allen Company Backcountry Meat Bag

    I get that you would do that for their other bags, but these bags are being marketed for backcountry use where hunter debone all their meat. You couldn't use your method boning out the meat. For the guys that used them, did you use them the same way as you did with your TAG BOMB bags?

    Critique My Gear List

    I like to count ounces but there is a limit, certain areas you don't want to sarcrifice comfort for a few ounces, sleeping pad and Pack come to mind. Remember you need good night sleep which requires warmth and comfort (bigger airpad with higher r value for me) and you pick your pack based on...
