    4 Wheel campers

    I had a FWC Grandby for almost a year and really liked it for the most part. I took it on a couple big game hunts and it was pretty nice with me and a buddy or me and my brother. They’re built well and pop up/down quickly and easily. I found it a little small for my family of 4 at the time but...

    Tikka Price Increase?

    I was at Scheels recently and the sales guy alluded to Tikka coming out with a new rifle. That’s all he would say and said he wasn’t even supposed to tell me that. They had a few stainless models for sale under $700 but 223.

    Any raptor F150 owners?

    Oil changes are probably the biggest thing I would want to see. On the gen 1’s they would get dimples on the cab where the front of the bed hit the cab from people jumping them too big/far. Not sure if it applies to gen 3 or not. Good luck!

    Forloh BTM Pant review forthcoming

    I’ve worn Fjallraven Keb pants for all of this season so far starting in early October (3 big game hunts, helping a buddy pack out his bull, and birds). So far I’ve been impressed. I waxed them once so far and it was very easy. They’re pretty good resisting thorns but not 100%. The side and calf...

    Camping with kids

    You shouldn’t need many toys or games. We took our kids camping as young as 3 months old which is difficult but doable. My kids just find rocks to climb, sticks and stones to throw, etc. If you get air mattresses make sure they’re insulated ones or you and the kids will freeze even in warm...

    Any tikka deals out there?

    I also saw some deals at Scheels. The sales guy said he’s not supposed to say anything but Tikka has a “new” rifle coming out according to him.

    Vivo forest tracker esc durability

    I’ve been wearing some Altera alpaca socks this season and don’t find them restrictive. I use the Injinji liner toe socks underneath them and it’s been a great combo. They’re definitely not as restrictive as my Darn Tough socks.

    Vivo forest tracker esc durability

    The aqua seal rand is the solution I think. Mine is holding up well so far this season and I applied it to boots that already had two seasons of use. I did buy a new(ish) pair on revivo and I applied the aqua seal before wearing them for the first time.

    Rokstok review thread

    This hunting season with the Rokstok was a huge success. My wife and I each filled both tags we had and were able to shoot the same rifle without any changes. In the past I had to add a cheek riser to the factory Tikka stock for her. Rifle is a Tikka 6.5cm barrel chopped to 19 and ultra 7, swfa...

    Safety harness for 50# child 48.5 inches.

    I’m not a climber but I have used it as an activity for my kids since they were little and I just belay them. The rope doesn’t have constant tension when climbing. The belay line should have the slack out of it but the climbers weight isn’t on the rope unless they fall or decide to take a break...

    Safety harness for 50# child 48.5 inches.

    There are rock climbing harnesses made for kids that’s size. I know nothing about tree stand hunting so I don’t know if that is helpful at all.

    Rokstok review thread

    My wife needed a cheek riser on the factory stock with Sportsmatch low rings and a swfa 3-9x42. She didn’t need to add anything to the rokstok.

    Talk me out of kowa 502

    I had a 501 for a season or two. I think it will do what you’re asking of it. They’re pretty good for the weight and price.

    Wilderness Hunting Reciprocity. Good idea?

    NR wouldn’t be barred from wilderness in other states if their state of residence allows NR hunters to hunt wilderness. This isn’t a complete rejection of NR hunting wilderness across the west. It’s reciprocity from one state to another based on similar rules about who can and can’t hunt...

    Wilderness Hunting Reciprocity. Good idea?

    And the max tags for residents is 87 for that unit. NV is 90/10 resident non resident per the commission rules. We don’t have nearly the number of elk WY does so using the low number of tags without the proper context is unfair. Is 90/10 fair in WY? Are you hoping for that change?
