B_Reynolds thank you! I've never sheep hunted before so do you feel that combo works the best because you're looking at a big open area in the cliffs? Translating it to mule deer country, which could span from open high country to open/dense timber do you think you'd still prefer your choice?
Hi Everyone, recently I watched GoHunt's video about the NL Binos (link at the bottom) and what stuck out to me was their excitement for a 32 objective bino. So, I'm hoping to collect all your opinions about two sets of Swaro NL binos, the 12x42s and the 10x32s. The obvious pros for the 12s are...
$150 XS Kryptek Lykos 2 jacket in highlander camo. Selling because I didn't try in on with mid-layers layers and it was too tight around my chest. The jacket is new since it hasn't been worn outside. Buyer pays for shipping.
Selling my Tru Ball Blade Pro Flex for $220 plus $10 for shipping ($230 total). This is great release with an infinite amount of adjustability to fit your shooting style. Can attach a wrist strap for hunting if you chose to!
Extras Include:
1. Four finger attachment
2. Ultraview Helix Knob

Hi Everyone, I'm looking for some information on the actual speed of the PSE Mach 1. I've seen that the bow is pretty efficient and shots faster than expected, however, I haven't seen any test for shot draw lengths. Do any of you know what the actual FPS would be for a 25-26 inch draw with a...
Hi everyone, I’m looking at purchasing my first spotter and was hoping you all could help me out a little. I’m looking for a spotter that’s compact and light and will help me properly judge and animal’s size/points. I don’t need to see high detail, but it would be nice to know if the animal is...
Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has tried fitting the kifaru guide lid on a Seekoutside Peregrine or just another SO pack? It seems like it would work but am not sure and want to see if anyone out there has already tried.
Thank you in advance!
Hi Everyone, I'd like to start this post off by first saying I know "waterproof" is often miss leading especially when discussing backpacks. What I'd like to know more about are your perspectives on whether "waterproof" backpacks, or packs made in Xpac material, are worth it compared to other...
If you decide on the VXR then I'd recommend upgrading the strings to a brand that makes theirs in BCY 452x. The Matthews zebra strings really are not great. I have a TX5 and when I put after market strings on the bow it made it significantly easier to control letting down and I no longer had...
I shoot a TX5 too. My DL is only 25in and I shoot Easton Axis 400 Spine with 50gr of brass up top, 100gr tip, and 4 aae 2.3 max sealth vanes. The total arrow weight is 410gr and I'm pulling 67lbs and am getting speeds of 270. I've had no issues but it defiantly places a bigger importance on shot...
My Sitka jackets just hold up a whole lot better. A cheaper jacket will wear a whole lot faster especially if you're wearing a backpack. I don't think you need to go super expensive, but that really just depends on what you expect to find yourself in. For my wife I just got her an REI gortex and...
I like using a 3 pin slider more just because I spend a lot of time just shooting my bow. It's a lot of fun being able to dial to the yardage on different courses and try to be as accurate as possible. In the field, I know I'm confident within 50yrds and I feel like the more open sight picture...
Yeah I've tried doing that and It helped me too. It's possible that I may be searching for something that doesn't exist. Would you mind sharing your opinion between the SO and Kifaru?
I agree that Seek Outside sets the bar. If you really just need a 1p tent then the Silex is cool cause you can get with a stove jack that'll allow you to stay warm even in late season hunts. You can also get it in DCF if you're really weight conscious.
I'd also consider the Eolus and Cimmaron...
I have the eolus with the nest and I don't find it bad at all to carry. It packs down really well so thats something to consider. I do also like how I could run without the nest if I'm trying to shave oz. It's just gives me the flexibility ice always looked for in a hunting/backpacking set up.
I love my eolus tent. But I think if you're good in a bivy or are just in an area where you don't have to work about bugs then I think its really hard to beat the cimmaron.
Hi everyone, this year I bought a Seek Outside Peregrine partly due to the X-PAC material. During archery season this year I found myself in some rain storms and I was impressed with how well the pack did through the inclement weather. However, the pack itself just didn't fit my body type the...
