Firstly, I can confirm my rifle, spotter, and Sky5900 all fit under there no problem. I used the heck out of the vestibule since it was raining off and on with my first trip. I never left the two layers together because I was drying them out a lot when I wasn't using them.
Also, the setup is...
This link can help you get a bigger picture view of herds, how heavily hunted they are with buck ratios, and the like.

Probably lower cost than you're looking to afford, but it's probably worth sharing this article on the Tikka I put together again. Upgrade the stock and call it macaroni for quite a bit under your budget.

Thought this was cool. For those who don't know, the Mullen Fire was 221K acres that burned in 2020 in southern WY. They treated it for cheatgrass with Rejuvera that popped up the following year and here we are in 2023 with some beautiful green native grass and forb hillsides.

But yes, like most places in the west, we have water and feed for days right now. Pretty...
Yep! Rockin the liner. So far, it’s been easy peasy for moisture management though I admit, I totally messed up and pitched it too low to the ground the first night. Gotta have some air flow or else the condensation is bad. But that seems to come with the territory of these type of tents.
Welcome guys! Looking forward to next year’s flight info to see exactly how close these samples might have been.

Figured these data screenshots would be helpful since headlines make a person think every deer in Wyoming is dead.
Keep in mind these are all samples of about 200 deer in each herd. Herds sizes when they collared these deer vary from 3,000 in the Sweetwater herd to 30,000 in Wyo Range.
