    Mark's Glock was empty

    Unfortunate set of circumstances, just drives home the point to train like your life depends on it. Having a gun and being able to use it under a stressful set of circumstances are two different things.

    Help with SG pack fitment

    How tall are you ? I have the same frame KRUX EVO. I am 6'5" and 265 pounds the frame is 26" I talked to them as well about fitting the pack. Here's the short of it... it ain't gonna fit like the video says it will. I am not going to get as much benefit from the load lifters either. That being...

    Got a cow elk with the muzzy

    I have had terrible blood trails with my muzzleloader. It kills them but you have to work for it. I shoot Hornady SST's out of the 20 gauge might have to try them from the smoke pole. Congrats on the cow

    Coffee While Hunting

    If you sprinkle a little cold water on top it will help sink those grounds straight to the bottom. When making coffee in camp with a enamel coffee pot I pour a little down the spout and it settles them pretty good

    Flying vs. driving

    I drove out this year, my drive was similar to yours, I am in the same boat considering fly vs driving. For now I will continue to drive for a couple of reasons. 1. Cost -it's cheaper to drive and split the costs with a second guy even if it's only part of the way. 2. I can bring more gear so...

    Hunt frustration

    Others have addressed the public land issue, here's my take on it. Normally a buck will not leave a hot doe alone, even if she's close to ovulating he will push her and try to mount her most of the time this results in them being locked down in a thicket or somewhere else she is going to escape...

    Please Share Your Whitetail Information!

    Not sure when your rut starts but hunt the down wind side of the bedding areas to catch bucks moving through scent checking for a hot doe. It pays to stay all day that time of year. A lot of bucks are killed between 11-2 pm that time of year. Early and late it's all about FOOD, find food, cover...

    Worried about Montana’s future

    I saw that too, I was surprised but maybe I shouldn't be. People have been dumbed down. Most of those people probably can't change the oil in their car or even a flat tire. Once you get a bunch of people re-locating they bring their ideology with them. Get enough of them together in an area and...

    Cutting the spine on a deer???

    I usually bring home the whole deer, whitetail. I can normally get the head off with a knife but use a hacksaw for the body / neck juncture. If I am not bringing it all home or it's a big deer I just fillet the meat off both sides. I have used loppers before, big ones, just to break through the...

    How did you pick your pack?

    Good question ! I was agonizing over this last year. For reference at 6'5 and 270 pounds I wanted a pack that would fit me well. I also wanted a "meat shelf" or Sling to get the weight up high and tight to my back where it should be. This , at the time, eliminated Kifaru. I talked to Steve...

    meat in the cooler

    Ever eat a wild boar hog ? Salt water slush is the best way to handle that meat. It won't hurt deer either, I have a friend who fed all his kids without buying meat at the store and that's how he did it. Minus the salt for venison, the salt makes the slurry colder and helps with flavor on wild...

    What did you get rid of from your pack after elk season?

    We ended up base camping for 15 days, never found an area worth re-locating to so we left our options open and drove to different areas, In my day pack I stopped carrying my rain jacket after the first week, I only used it once and I stood under a spruce and never had a drop of rain hit it. This...
