    FNG outta Texas

    Always up for a beer and fishing! I'm out of Houston (Missouri City), if you're in the area give me a shout.

    Two Weeks till blastoff

    Thanks everyone, this is helping. Rallysquirrel just blew my mind the fact that I've forgotten pepto up to this point. I also took other's advice and went ahead and ordered the tag online with the overnight shipping. I ordered it at 10 am Monday morning and it was on my doorstep by 3 Tuesday...

    Two Weeks till blastoff

    Awesome, thanks everyone. I'll get some babywipes and add them to the list. My last long hike I did have a pretty serious case of swamp ass, I expect nothing different this time around.

    Two Weeks till blastoff

    I've decided that typing this out will help with me to stop over analyzing my gear and game plan. It's my first time heading up elk hunting and while I've been on more than enough deer hunting trips, this is an order of magnitude greater than what I'm used to... that's also why I'm doing it in...

    Colorado Unit Seventy Eight Archery questions?

    See you out there, planning our first trip for early archery season. I've never been to the area but if you want to swap ideas / intel shoot me a message.

    2016 Hoyt

    Looks awesome in those pics with all the flowers. All this rain down here has some benefits. If you ever need a hunting buddy to poke some piggies let me know, I'm in Houston.

    Carry Holster for Backpacking

    I'm sure this has been covered somewhere, but I can't find it. Basically I'm looking for those with experience with carrying your pistol in the backcountry while hiking / hunting. I've done this before with just a chest rig and my backpack, but this fall I plan to have my AGC bino pack on my...

    Fargo to the Keys

    Been there a bunch. No Name Bar is cool to see and fishing is good just down the street at the no name bridge. Bring your minnow bucket and pick up some shrimp. Put them right next to the bridge pilings (you can fish off most bridges) and you'll catch snapper, grouper if you're lucky. Like the...

    Am I being a little over ambitious? (solo elk hunt)

    I'm planning a first time solo trip as well (coming from TX) for the same reasons as many others. Can't get any of my friends excited to hike around the mountains for a week. I'm just not a huge fan of camping alone, and neither is my wife, but both of us will get over it. If anyone is thinking...

    Fixed or Mechanical

    Last deer I hit with an NAP spitfire had a complete pass through, absolutely destroyed both shoulder blades and he wasn't long for this world. Another one hit a bit far back, but still did the job with a pass through. These are smaller eastern deer though. My dad has had really good luck with...

    No Cam HTR

    So I'm looking for my first bow and the no cam is on my short list. I will probably buy used to save some money this time around, but while searching I've noticed there are a LOT of No Cams for sale. This generally gets my mind thinking there is something just not right, despite the lack of...

    DFW roksliders

    What I would like to know being new to TX, is what the hell do I do when it's 100+ degrees outside? I guess I'll need to get a gym membership.

    DFW roksliders

    I'm down in Houston. Planning on heading to CO for OTC archery in 2016 for my first time. Tough to find people that want to go (also that I can trust to get shiz done) and the wife isn't thrilled at the idea of me going alone. If you're thinking of CO let me know and maybe we can get together...

    Houston, TX - Western Hunters??

    I'm from Houston. I'm actually looking for a partner that wants to do 2016 OTC Archery in CO. I've never been before, but as you mentioned something is calling. I'm just not a big fan of camping alone. I'm in Sugar Land, if you're serious let me know and we can meet up for a beer.

    Archery Newb

    Thanks all, I don't have a lot of options in the Houston market for proshops, but there's one close by that can hopefully put me on the right path. I measured my arm length to be 70", so 28" draw length is what I come up with, I'm 5'11" so I guess that makes sense. Hopefully I'm able to make...

    Archery Newb

    As with many on here, I'm getting into elk hunting without much experience and my location isn't ideal (Texas). I had everything lined up to go during 2015, planned on 2nd season OTC, but I took a new job and apparently October is travel month for my team. I was peeved, but got to work to pay...

    Forbes 20 B Sheep Rifle review

    I almost got one of these a few months back. After reading the few droplets of reviews out there and talking to the guy at Forbes I decided against it, after reading this I'm glad I did. $1800 is no small fee for a gun like this, too much for a poor shooting one.

    New from SC

    I'm in the same boat, just recently found this site. I'm in Charlotte and I'm dead set on heading to CO next year for 2nd rifle. I'm selling some crap I don't need, buying some more my wife says I don't need but I will. Glad to see there's others in the area. This will be my first excursion out...
