    Lighter recoiling elk rifle

    Another vote here for a 7mm-08. I’d consider myself recoil sensitive and have no issues with that cartridge. One thing to keep in mind is that stock design can make a big impact on felt recoil. Even some of the bigger rounds mentioned can be a pleasure to shoot with a good stock, but with the...

    1P tent recommendations

    I’ve been keeping my eyes out for when this one finally got released. I’m not a fan of trekking pole tents but this looks like it checks all my boxes.

    Ruffed Grouse as a Newbie

    I recently moved to mid-Michigan and have heard people talk about hunting ruffed grouse up in the UP. How difficult is it to have a little success as someone who’s never done it before? I won’t be living here for more than a couple years so it’s not something I am going to devote my life to...

    Middle of the road wader options?

    I can’t say what’s the best, but I can 100% tell you to stay away from banded and drake. I used to work at a hunting store that sold a pile of waders and we eventually quit selling those brands because over 50% got returned as defective within a year. I’ve heard good things about Rogers in the...

    Nemo Hornet Elite Osmo 1P Tent Review: Updated with Review

    Following to see how it holds up in the rain. I’ve been looking at one of these myself but the 1200mm rating doesn’t give me a lot of confidence in rainstorms.

    2024 show your dogs success

    Got the pup a few teal on opening day. He sure was pissed when I let the big ducks fly through though.

    newbie duck hunter, give me advice on a super basic set of decoys

    I think this is the best tip. If your hide sucks, it doesn’t matter how good your decoy spread is. This is even more true with smaller spreads. You can get away with a little with a big spread, but with a small spread you better be invisible.

    Josh Peterson phone Snowy Mountains

    I was up in the Snowy Mountains of Wyoming this weekend doing some hiking and I found an iPhone. It looked like it had been there for quite awhile and I figured it was trash. I threw it in my bag and figured I’d pack it out to dispose of. When I got home, I plugged it in and miraculously it...

    Optics for 7 PRC

    Sounds like you found a good option. I’ll tell you a story that made me a believer in FFP. I always thought FFP was for comp guns and I didn’t need/want one on a hunting rifle. A month ago I was out in the mountains. I had a trophy rock chuck in my sights at 850 yards. I I dialed my elevation...

    WTS 5.7x28 brass

    I’ve got 200 or so pieces of Federal 5.7x28 brass. Fired once, picked up and put in a bag immediately so it should be pretty clean. $20+ shipping and it’s yours.
