    What I don't bring on a backpack hunt anymore!

    There's some good stuff here. Anyone have anything new to add? Or should I say, "take away"?

    Tarp question

    There's also the benefit of leaking to the downhill side without leaving the shelter at night.

    Dream animal hunt, what's yours?

    First place ties with spot-and-stalk cape/water buffalo with my recurve. Make plans, not wishes.

    Hunting in Australia

    Most states recognize hunter safety from other states. Here in TN you can take your course online and schedule a single field day to get your certification. For an international hunter it might be worth looking into to save a few days.

    What backpacking tents are you using when not hunting?

    GL SL5 will be plenty big enough for your wants. I'm not sure how they package them these days, but they're roomy even with the floor and netting setup. They couldn't care less when it rains, you can use cots inside, versatile setup options. They're good tents.

    Anyone pitch an SL5 like this?

    I do the same thing in my SL3 and the same for Ethan and his SL5. Just lower the pole, reach out under the tent, cinch down the walls and you're good to go.

    Buying a d shaped longbow

    Rocky Mountain Specialty Gear in Colorado usually has a good selection of used bows. They keep a pretty accurate inventory on their website as well.

    International Hunting Thread

    Absolutely in favor of this idea. Like others, I'm in the beginning stages of planning an international hunt and this would provide an appropriate space for discussing logistics as well as posting experiences. Shoot, if it ends up as a lame duck it can always be pulled. Edit: This would be...

    please school me on jetboil

    I've not used a jetboil, so I could be wrong, but with my PR, I use a kettle that can also be used with a wood fire and I don't think the JB can pull double duty there.

    ExOfficio boxer briefs

    Also, they aren't too difficult to wash by hand. They do take a while to dry out if you don't wring them a good deal first, but they usually get bone dry overnight. I've had no problem bringing two pair for multi-day trips and switching back and forth between the two. They come out nice and...

    Rokslide and Kuiu

    This is what a lack of accountability will get you.

    Free meat

    I offer to take them hunting. If they want it bad enough I'll do what I can to help them get their own. It's uprising how many people say, "heck yeah!" and yet never seem to have any time to go hunting.

    Exo Mountain Gear final pictures

    Are the 5500 prototype photos going to be available soon? I'd like to take advantage if the pre-order discount, but I haven't seen any pictures or the layout of the larger bag. It's possible I've just missed them.

    CO Flat Tops Wilderness

    Awesome. I'm looking forward to that. The tender cuts of Bigfoot are few and far between.

    CO Flat Tops Wilderness

    Can you get OTC tags for Bigfoot in that area?

    CO Flat Tops Wilderness

    Thanks for the feedback, guys. Much appreciated. I'm not afraid to work my way into the areas away from the road. In fact, I'd be more concerned with walking TOO far as I have a tendency to ramble. My plan, so far, is to hit the lake a couple weeks before the season starts and set up a...
