Sorry just saw your comment about packing out the next day. If that works for you, good on you. I know for me, I’d rather get a deer out on one trip. Many places, leaving a deer overnight means feeding the coyotes or bears

What do you do when you get an animal??Hike back to the truck and then grab a pack? When I’m hunting I pretty much always have my pack with me. I have an EXO k2 3500, and when cinched down is pretty much a large day pack. No matter how deep in I go, I am always prepared then to pack out the...
I’ve got about the cheapest gun out there, but it’s put a bunch of birds down and had never failed me once. It’s a H&R Pardner pump, I think it’s a Carlson choke, an old Tasco tactical 3-9, and homemade rattle can Kryptek. It’s been a good little gun for turkeys. I’ve always shot Hevi Shot out...
I've lived in Colorado 17 years, and maybe its just where I hunt, but I've never really elk hunted very often in areas that are accessible via bike. I've done quite a bit of bear hunting in Montana and those gated logging roads are the perfect environment for a bike in my opinion. I also use...
You could get a new loaded Nissan Frontier Pro4X for that price range I believe. They have quite a bit more power than the Tacomas. The redesign of the Frontier looks really nice. I was always a Nissan fan, put a ton of miles on a Titan and an Xterra. When I was shopping a couple years ago, I...
Can you show a comparison of the Nutrition Facts between the 2? Just playing devils advocate here, but the packaging and size change doesn't necessarily mean its truly "less" (ie. if its still calorically about the same, just in a smaller form, thats actually a good thing for backpacking)
I built mine from an M101a2 Army trailer. I picked it up a couple of years before the overland craze, and only paid $475 for it at auction. I’ve spent maybe a couple grand or so on it total.
I love it for what it is. I can haul a comfortable camp pretty much any where I can take my 4Runner. I’ve...
I use Avian X decoys, and they work awesome when they work, but suck when they spook birds LOL. I archery hunt public land in Nebraska. Ive shot gobblers that were trying to hump my decoy, and I have had gobblers go out of their way to avoid them. Really depends on the situation, time of year...
I think AI, automation, and machine learning are going to radically change the way humans function. I don’t think it’s going to be as cut and dry as AI replacing jobs per se, although I do think a lot of jobs will be redundant.
I work in the civil engineering and construction world, in a...
First year I antelope hunted I remember seeing guys that would pull out those sun shade canopies, set up heavy shooting tables, lay out their rifles on a lead sled, etc. setup all their optics and sit all day anticipating a long range shot.
It’s a different skill set to be accurate at super...
I love to cook, I experiment a lot but really, my favorite preparations with wild game are usually very simple. We do tacos with heart and tongue, my kids love that. I do a lot of simple wood fire grilling. Just salt, pepper and olive oil, and as soon as it comes off the grill let it rest with...
Got a mountain bird here in Colorado. Hiked up a thousand feet from the truck only to get completely cliffed out. I had to back down and reassess with OnX. I found a saddle that looked doable so went up that. About 500-600 feet elevation straight up from the truck, it opened up into really nice...
I’ve got a 2021 Venture model. It sits between the TRD Pro and TRD Off Road I believe. It’s got crawl control, rear locker, has the manual 4wd lever instead of the dial. Basically all the stuff the TRD Pro has, minus the skid plate and Fox shocks.
I’ve been happy with mine, and got it...
To be clear, this would only allow texting and sharing of position between 2 phones connected to these devices? It doesn't allow you to relay a data connection from one location to another does it? (ie. I get cell service at the truck, but not down in a valley, so I set up the blue one at my...
You guys do realize that the companies Elon Musk (by the way, a cofounder of OpenAI) started (ie. Tesla, NeuroLink, SpaceX) are spearheading research and development of autonomy, AI and machine learning. Regardless what he is “calling for” in the press, he’s pretty much laid the groundwork for...
I manage a team of engineers that provide highly complex technical support for GPS guidance systems. I can tell you, we’ve been talking about chat gpt a lot. The underlying technology is going to certainly change what I do for a living, and probably a lot faster than most people realize. I think...
I just typed in "write a hunting story about shooting a record bull elk" and it spit out this:
It was early fall, and the leaves were starting to change colors. I had been planning for months for this hunting trip in the mountains of Colorado. My goal was to shoot a record bull elk, something...
Man, that's exactly what deterred me from buying another Nissan. I put half a million miles on 2 Nissans (a Titan and then an Xterra), and was ready to buy a new Titan a couple years ago. The dealer here was terrible to work with. Very rude and aggressive, but wouldn't even begin to entertain...
