    Received: Crispi Hunter GTX

    Sounds good. I have Kenetrek MTN extremes uninsulated and Crispi kanada, second year wearing them both. I'm feeling the crispis are a little more comfortable and more stable. Taking nothing away from the kenetreks as I have no issues with them at all and haven't since new.

    Slick trick viper or wicked trick & Exodus for elk

    Been using the ST Viper tricks 125 for couple years. Shot at a bull in September and swore it should have connected, 42 yds. We found no blood and no Elk anywhere. Now yesterday I shot a cow Elk with same setup and she died 60 yds away, and no blood again. 55yds this time, arrow passed through...

    Something interesting happened with my down puffy

    I agree with this completely. To many layers and working to hard. Remove one of those layers, slow down a bit, and wait before putting on the puffy. 18° last week and I wore 2 layers plus a jacket. Approximate 145 weight wool base, kuiu 200 peloton or FL Halstead, Chinook or skre hardscrabble...

    What I learned about Elk

    If a herd is running and some get tired they will just peel off and hide somewhere instead of keep running.

    SWFA 6x42 SS MQ on sale now for $199. Perhaps the best deal on scopes in the world? :-)

    20oz for a 6x scope? I'll stick with Leupold. My variables are mostly on 5x or 6x most of the time.

    Leupold vx-3i?

    3.5-10 unless like the other guy said you want to save weight. I have had the 2.5-8 years, 25 or 30 years and that one just broke a couple years ago when I dropped the rifle, it got replaced by Leupold with a 2.5-8 vx3i. I live in same area and either would work fine. I have a couple 3-9 vx2...

    Pants that don't get holes in the crotch?

    Are they worn through, tears, or rotted? Have you tried sewing them up?

    Favorite Hunting Pants?

    How are the kutanas compared to the attacks? Lighter, heavier, fit, flexibility? Attacks are a no fail always usable all around pant for me. Also like kryptek Ragnar pant (which they don't make anymore, I think), can slide knee pads in, waterproof knee coating, good flexibility, easy access...

    Successful DIY Montana Trip

    Looks like either sex for both species at least in these units. For 2019 anyway. Put a couple notes in, are those correct, I'm reading and understanding them correctly?

    Road Hunters

    I'm surprised they didn't cite you for destruction of property, if it was obvious it was a decoy and you knew it was.

    Elk bedding

    I've seen many beds that were vacated shortly before daylight. At end of roads or even along roads, wherever they feel like taking a break. Walked up on them at 3pm bedded in timber at the end of a ridge.

    Successful DIY Montana Trip

    Trying to decipher the Mt regs, looks like general deer tag is good statewide and for either sex? I have downloaded the regs and maps of the units. A coworker goes to Fort Peck most years and another guy is trying to talk me into going so trying to figure out what, when where etc.

    Down bag storage question.

    I think the bins are fine, as long as they(the sleeping bags) are not in the compression sack and cinched down. My bag came with a storage bag for when not using it.

    Mounts in wife's livingroom

    Not with those little uncomfortable chairs. Keep them in the man cave where they belong. Maybe one in the living room as your contribution to the decor, and rotate every month or 2 to a different one. You said it in the title, it's her living room. You want her decorating your man cave?

    when would you use 8x42 binos?

    They might be adequate but more power would be better for the distances you state. I use 6x32 or 8x32 almost all the time, only pull out 12x50 on rare occasion. To heavy to pack around and they are best with support and I don't look that far away for animals.
