    The dreaded sidearm question...

    I don't carry mine during the rifle hunts if I'm the one with the gun. It stays in the truck, and if I have an animal to pack out, after the first load hits the truck, I can switch out the rifle for the 10mm. Mine is the glock 29. I also carry the Glock 29 during scout trips and turkey hunts. My...

    transferring elk stink to the meat

    I agree with JPD and the others who suspect meat spoilage and bone souring. I had this happen on a white tail buck my son shot. We couldn't locate the deer after shooting him in the morning. Then temps climbed. we looked all morning and found him late in the afternoon, BUT the temps were way up...

    Finally did it! Upgraded knives for the house and meat processing..Victorinox

    I put a lot of thought and research in before buying. I found lots of butchers that would recommend the Vic knives with the Fibrox handles. The only knife I wanted and couldn't find on amazon was the 5" semi stiff. I went with a 5" flexible and 6" semi stiff to compare. Its not in the list...

    Finally did it! Upgraded knives for the house and meat processing..Victorinox

    ive been averaging 2 deer a year, sometimes 3. For those just getting started....there are many videos on youtube that will help. My two favorites are Scott Rae and the Bearded Butchers. Scott Rae is my fav simply because he is overseas and does butchering videos on smaller deer. He's a little...

    Finally did it! Upgraded knives for the house and meat processing..Victorinox

    After numerous years of dealing with less than stellar knives around the house for meat processing, I finally decided to say the hell with it. I didn't draw any tags this year, so I might as well upgrade my knife game. Timing was good too because the wife was complaining about our "crappy steak...

    .223 Vs .243 for white tail deer hunting?

    if long range isn't in the cards...I know these weren't on your list, but maybe a 7mm-08 or even 270 with the managed recoil ammo if they still make it. The Remington Managed recoil loads kicked less than normal 270 ammo....and worked well for my wife. she shoots regular 270 ammo now though...

    What's your favorite day pack?

    I also like the Badlands superday pack for times when meat carry isn't an issue. Works great for whitetail hunts because it has lots of pockets. Room for a bladder. Works good for carrying a spotter and tripod in the main compartment for scouting when on horseback too. Just a few things Ive used...

    New headlamp

    I have a couple zebralights and I also have the black diamond storm. I carry both. When I need stupid bright, I pull out the zebralight with the 18650 rechargeable battery. I use the storm for everything else. I like it because you can run it dim at camp and it has the button for instant bright...
