    Favorite bipod shooting sticks?

    I’ve made sticks and bought all sorts of them and my go-to for predator hunting is a cheap BogPod bipod with some camo form tape over the foam sections and a quick spray paint camo on the rest. This IS the predator hunting section, right? Since it is, I’m assuming you’re asking for predator...

    Thermal for the working man

    I thought about the AGM stiff but I’m pretty sure I’m going to go with the Hogster 25 for scanning because it’s plenty compact AND it provides me with a backup or a extra thermal for my wife or kids to use when they want to join me. I feel like it provides a better value for me, in my particular...

    How often are you predator versus “meat hunting”

    I actively seek out predators from the day after whitetail season ends until near the end of spring Turkey. Then I do a little bit again when the fawns start dropping. I’m too busy guiding and running the ranch I manage during whitetail season to predator hunt. However, I’ll always shoot any...

    Arctic Predator hunt in Alaska

    I’m not taking any rifles. He shoots mine when he’s down here and I’m going to return the favor. I’ll probably be shooting his .204 and he’s shooting his .22 mag. We’re also taking a 6mm and a .243 for wolves and caribou. I’m taking my FoxPro Shockwave with my favorite sounds and he just...

    Thermal for the working man

    Nobody has mentioned them but I’m probably going to jump in with the Bering Optics Hogster 25 or the Hogster 35; roughly $2225 and $2800 respectively. They are very comparable to Pulsar but have a better warranty and a little lower price. Stay away from ATN. Bering, Pulsar and AGM are your best...

    Arctic Predator hunt in Alaska

    Three days after whitetail season ends (1/17/2020) at the South Texas ranch I manage, I’m leaving for Fairbanks - to do some predator hunting with a buddy of mine. He’s a Fairbanks native and an avid Lynx hunter. We cooked up the idea, a while back, to go on a 5-6 day hunt together and target...

    What Suppressor are y’all running

    I run the TABC Ultra 7, Omega .30 and a .22 can from SiCo but I forget the name. The TABC Ultra goes on most of my precision rifles and the Omega rides most of my AR platform rifles. If I had it to do over, I would own TWO of the TABC Ultras. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Trophy of a lifetime......

    FWIW- The size is irrelevant. What matters is their diet and, in the case of boars, whether they’re rutting with a sow. On a few rare occasions I’ve had a big sow that stunk and I’m pretty sure it was a hormonal thing - either freshly bred or just into estrus. All I know is that I’ve butchered 1...

    Need clothing advice for Arctic hunting trip!

    No doubt! I’m taking all that. I don’t even know what the wind chill will be if we hit -40° plus a wind. Lol. I’d rather not think about it right now. Haha! So far, the forecast is looking pretty good but things can change in the Arctic very quickly. I’m hoping weather doesn’t get in the way. If...

    Hot weather desert pant for archery?

    OP - you’re chasing a unicorn, brother! Lol. What about wearing a pair of gaiters over something really lightweight like the Kuiu Tiburons? Then, when you have to put on a stalk, you could remove them if they’re too noisy for you. Just a thought. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hot weather desert pant for archery?

    Have you tried the Kutana’s? I live and guide in S Texas and I’ve been tempted to try them. I heard they’re pretty durable. Man, I HATE catclaw!! I was in it today.. like most days. [emoji26][emoji2959] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    First Lite sizing for longjohns??

    I’m ordering some long underwear from FL and just curious about sizing? I wear a 33” pair of jeans normally and if I put on some old 34” Kuiu Attack pants they absolutely require a belt. My FL Corrugate pants are a medium/long and I need to wear a belt with them, but they have that elasticized...

    Need clothing advice for Arctic hunting trip!

    The Kifaru Lost Park Pants are good for wind and incredibly warm - they’re Climashield Apex insulated with a outer shell of water repellant Rhino shield material that is similar to a tent material. Plus, I’ll have my over-whites that go over everything. I talked with FL today as well as my...

    Need clothing advice for Arctic hunting trip!

    You don’t think that a heavy pair of wool long Johns under a pair of Attack pants under a pair of Kifaru Lost Parka Pants would be warm enough? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need clothing advice for Arctic hunting trip!

    I think I’ll probably have to borrow that type thing from my friend. He has extra gear I can borrow and I don’t think a beaver hat is something I’m going to invest in as a Texan. Lol. But I am taking my beanies to wear under my down hood and the hood on my Lost Park Parka. That ought to give me...

    Need clothing advice for Arctic hunting trip!

    I do have a white bacalava and a white neck warmer/gaiter. I think my buddy has some goggles I can borrow but I was going to take some clear shooting glasses. Great reminder on the chap stick and moisturizer. [emoji120] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need clothing advice for Arctic hunting trip!

    I was invited on a last minute trip to do some predator hunting in the Alaskan Arctic and I’m leaving in 2 weeks. I’ve hunted all over but not in the Arctic. My buddy that lives in Fairbanks has some extra gear to help me out but I’m trying to figure out what I already have and what I can get to...

    Ninja Foodi

    We bought the Emeril LaGassy (spelling?) version that was about 50% the price and it’s great. Has all the same features and capabilities without the name and resulting price. We’ve had it a year - works great and looks brand new. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
