OP your thinking is right on.....you need to consider this strongly. I give a double thumbs up on the point Coveyleader just brought up. I've only harvested one goat in CO so it's not something I've done regularly but after scouting and chasing them on the mountain it became clear to me that...
This is just more feedback as to the slow web page loading or not loading at all. In the last few weeks of February my log in success is less then 50% and usually only during the earlier morning or later evening hours. Otherwise I get a message that the server was too slow to respond so a...
Another thumbs up on Kenetrek Mountain Extremes both insulated and noninsulated. They fit my normal width foot and are plenty stiff and I prefer a taller boot. I have to pretape my ankles to avoid blisters if I'm going steep for a long haul but a little precaution for a good pair of boots.
I like the option of a stove for late season hunts for comfort and drying gear. I've been in some pretty high winds in tipi style tents and did fine.... with some thought put into placing the shelter behind small wind breaks like rocks/small trees /shrubs. As I get older I kinda like not...
I like mine and so does my wife. Helps us keep in touch and she can track me while I'm in the woods hunting , fishing and mountain biking. Battery lasts a long time. The subscription is nice so you don't have to pay if you do not use it.
Megastink- For the budget folks....I run with a 8X30 Vortex Diamondback Bino and just picked up the Athlon Cronus 12-36X50 spotter from Cameraland on sale. For the optic size and weight the spotter is pretty clear. I've never looked through the 501 Kowa's. Now I'm just looking at animals and...
I hunted the early Sept. season last year in the Colorado high country and my usual water supply creek was not flowing and mostly dry. I had to hike up a few hundred yards to find a small pool of water. The forecast is only a forecast but it's showing below normal precip. for the winter. If...
Agree, be aware of your surroundings and the odds especially in your area seem to be very low for an second encounter much less a threatening encounter. While hunting, I've seen cat tracks in my tracks I put down in the snow when I hiked in for a morning hunt only to find lion tracks over my...
I'll give fouling a try and see if how it influences the groups. Good to know you did not have to adjust your seating length to achieve good accuracy.
Funny, I also bought some once fired Federal brass that I had a primer fail to seat. I'll keep an eye on this, otherwise I have some once...
