    Ghost Gun / 80% lowers law change

    For anyone curious, r/ FossCAD on Reddit shows examples of what you could 3D print at home. No way to really trace that so cat is already out of the bag and this law doesn't mean anything unless they ban peer to peer downloads, personal use of CAD design, and tracing 3D printing material sales I...

    The resident short game. Long term consequences?

    Yeah its soon going to be like the midwest. Everyone is going to race and buy a chunk of land to get their "resident tag" and then you will only be able to hunt that little parcel so put out a food plot and a tree stand in the corner of the plot and hope you have elk come by.

    Huk brand hoodie - mid layer?

    Not sure what the material is on that one. But for cheap grid fleece I heard this Condor II Grid Fleece recommended by the Exo Mtn guys a few times so bought one. Its slightly thicker than my sitka heavyweight hoodie but no hood or mask. Great cost to warmth ratio for mid layer fleece at $23 on...

    I propose the “Fair opportunity in America’s Outdoors Act”

    I get why western hunters are trying to protect their opportunities. But I also get what you are saying and might be onto something. The way things are going its more like 5% tags for DIY non-residents. The other 5% you have to use an outfitter. So NR hunters are getting screwed. All the...

    BaseMap Announces new feature in partnership with SIG Sauer "Remote Markers"

    I have a Samsung Galaxy as well and I found that tracking is way off on Basemap since I switched from Iphone. My old tracks on iphone when I hike follow every little turn in the trails, where as now they are straight lines from dot to dot at times that I opened the actual phone and app to place...

    Any one use a Subaru as a hunting buggy

    Exhibit A of trunk and back seat liners in use. MI public land doe, tree stand and bow went in the seats and doe in the back. Usually have a tarp as well but the trunk liner works well.

    Any one use a Subaru as a hunting buggy

    Have a '16 forester and given 4 deer their last rides in it. Just be sure to carry a tarp in the trunk for this purpose. They also sell trunk liner and back of the seat covers so when you lay the back seats down flat its like a truck bed mat. The AWD on that thing is better than my F150 4WD in...

    Long read on Meateater from NY Times

    Aha. Guess I was confused since everyone else lists ratings per episode since the amount of episodes per month varies between shows.

    Long read on Meateater from NY Times

    It was actually a good article. Shows how he has grown his audience from people on the edge like the author deciding to try hunting and/or fishing. Would have liked her to try hunting instead of sit on the sidelines for the deer hunt. Crazy the numbers of listens as 2.5 million per episode...

    Does Rinella not allow a gun to be carried on his hunts?

    Ahh I thought you meant he had personally replied to you asking and stated no guns allowed on the show but that he didn't want to screw with removing his holster.

    Does Rinella not allow a gun to be carried on his hunts?

    Why no guns allowed if its legal? They let Phelps use his kifaru pack/leupold binos, so not like they are forcing him to use only sponsored items... And the Exo thing would be interesting since they missed out on the SG bid. Trying to be a one stop shop for all hunting gear with their margin on...
