Just as the title says...what’s the highest elevation you’ve killed elk at? My plan A this year assuming the elk are in the same generally area/elevation I’ll be hunting them at is right around that 11700-12000ft. Wonder sometimes how much I pass heading up that high, but I like the idea of...
My mini peak pyramid was the same way. The seams were covered from the fabric folding over. I pitched the it then when applying the sealer I pulled the fabric tight so the seam was exposed fully and applied and held it like that for a few minutes and the same for the rest. I didn’t have any...
hopefully that’s the case. I believe on the metcalf the bag and lid equal 4300 cubic inches and the 44 mag between the bag and side pockets it’s 4400 roughly. So possibly the between just the bags themselves it is bigger.
Yes they are just expensive up front, but long term like you said if you don’t lose them I think individuals will save money in the long run. I spent $80 on two packs of montecs last year and had to throw 4 of them away due to the damage. Partly the reason of switching to them. I’ll have to...
I decided not to snag a tag last year otc for bear in the unit I elk hunt due to not thinking I would see any. Sure enough, I found a absolutely beautiful reddish blonde bear up near around 11700 early in the trip and thought cool. Walking Down as my hunt was up I had a black bear side hill me...
while I’ve ordered 44mag and waiting to receive it the only experience I have is with my metcalf. From what I can tell both are similar in overall size/volume and going to the 44 mag for the ability to customize it and additional organization. last year I was able to do 10 days worth of gear...
Sounds like I just need to get a head that I desire outside of the IWs/Sevr and see what happens. I wasn’t sure if Head/blade design Would have any effect On point of impact compared to the IWs day if I went to a 3/4 blade fixed head Compared to the IW design.
the IWs are hitting great with FPS out to 50-55 so far and will be the main head( elk/deer) The reason of trying another head is essentially finances. I bit the bullet and bought the IWs and for me that’s a lot on broadheads. Would like another fixed head in the Arsenal that’s a bit more...
I’ve always shot a mix of fixed heads (Montecs) and mechanicals in the quiver. This year it’ll be IW s100 and most likely sevr 1.5”. I’ve got the IWs tuned out to 50-55 at the moment, but looking to add another style fixed head (slick trick, g5 striker, exodus full blade). The IWs will be the...
The pouches were for more space essentially for smaller items. I’m coming from a metcalf and love the simplicity of that bag, but decided to switch to kifaru after some issues with the metcalf and the frustration of not having a little more smaller external storage. the 44 mag seems similar in...
Looking to pick one of these up with some external pouches along the bag for organization and was curious how everyone runs there’s with the external pouches and still able to fit a bow strapped on when not in use? If you have pics would love to see them.
I’m a new to elk hunting as well with this being my 2nd year going for what it’s worth and solo once again and hunted just a couple units away from you and will be again this year. I will say, I spent almost a year of e-scouting and reading anything I could via, internet, forums, books, as I...
For what it’s worth I don’t own the fanatic, but I have the entire stratus system. I live and hunt in west central Illinois where temps during season can be 90 all the way down to -30 some years. I typically run hot in my opinion, but late October until mid November temps would be 60-35s during...
just checked and was awarded my pp as first choice and tag as second.Just took some time in the system I guess. Got nervous seeing it hit the card and everything else going through.
did you receive your elk point with your tag tag as second choice? I just checked again this morning and wasn’t awarded the point, but my deer and goat points went through.
