When is it time to upgrade?
Had a Mathews DXT for 13 years, always had trouble getting a perfect broadhead tune. Never liked how far the quiver hung off the bow. I shot the new displays every year. I didn't upgrade til the V3X came out. Mostly the tight-fitting quiver pushed me over the edge. I do miss how the DXT was... -
Changing up Arrow build for Caribou
As much as I try to stick to a 2 blade fixed head, I think I'll likely have a few mechs in my quiver when I finally get to go for Caribou. With the open terrain, wind and size of them, I think the mechs might be a good bet. I had luck with qad exodus before, but then one season, I couldn't... -
three day trip- under 30 lbs with food and water :)
I've done the cleaned mtn house bag and it works fine, but can't compare to the hyperlite.- CMF

Clamping tripod
We currently have a BOG Deathgrip for the kids to shoot off of, but it's too heavy for backcountry hunting. My son missed a good bull this year shooting the muzzy off a trigger stick and I think it would have went better if we had a clamping tripod like the deathgrip. Has anyone put together a...- CMF

Would you use this service? Sheep wagon or enclosed trailer camping on closed roads
I don't know the rules, but seems like you could rent this, hunting or not hunting. would you still need the outfitter service if not hunting? I doubt I would ever use, but it would be situation-dependent, maybe with the wife and kids or in griz country. I definitely wouldn't pay more than... -
Lighter recoiling elk rifle
If he still likes the 300wm, Barnes makes a 130grn reduced recoil round. My 11yo just shot a cow elk with it and she was down in 50yds. It doesn't kick at all with a muzzle break on a hells canyon xbolt. -

Walk-in Cooler.. Trailer Build
First time seeing this thread, this is awesome. I plan to eventually build out a cargo trailer into a toy hauler/RV. I plan on putting a big chest freezer in, but this is interesting.- CMF

Fixed pin and adjustable sight
https://blackgoldsights.com/bowsights/ascent-mountain-lite/ I like the 3 pin, I tried adding 4th but went back to 3. -
Sleep pads
We've got two xtherms, 20" wide I guess. We added a sea to summit ether light,25" wide i think and now we fight over it. The xtherms are warm, but they are kind of loud like a dorito bag. We also like the wider pad. I'd be willing to part with the xtherms.- CMF

Elk habitat to hunt
I find them more between timber and meadows, bedding in timber, feeding in meadows. It probably has a lot to do with where you hunt them and the pressure. Alot of the aspen I see is usually on steep slopes and thicker underbrush, which I'd assume is an area they would prefer if there is heavy... -
Got my Colorado Moose!
Awesome! I look forward to being in the draw next year even though I probably have better odds at the Powerball... -
Current state of E-Forms
I did the individual and not the trust, not sure which form. it is I didn't realize at the time that I'd have to pay again to move it to a trust. I did individual to try and get it back in time for a Sep. hunt -
Current state of E-Forms
Just don't think the quick turnaround is a guarantee, I'm still waiting on approval since early Aug. -

Helene - any lessons learned, additional prep to do?
I wouldn't rule out flood insurance completely. There are areas in the x zone that flooded here during Katrina. I'm not one for insurance and agree most of its a racket. I probably won't carry wind/hail when I build a strong house here and pay it off. But there were a lot of people here on...- CMF

Yet another grizzly attack in Montana
what about the FWP not seeing cubs or finding cub tracks? Would that even matter ? -

Yet another grizzly attack in Montana
If one puts me up a tree and it ain't running off, I'd be shooting too. Seems like pretty reasonable self defense if he's already up a tree.
