    Cheap Stuff that Works

    Headlamps, Convoy is a custom Chinese light supplier. Simon the owner lives in Singapore his customer service is great! I've slowly started to swap out my AA and AAA cheap headlamps out for rechargeable 18650/21700s. The runtime is longer and the LEDs are better quality. I went down the rabbit...

    Iron Will Broadheads

    Ive used Iron Wills for 5 or so years, have yet to loose any. I like the single bevel because they're easy to sharpen on a knife sharpener. With 3 degs of vane helical I noted a C shape entry cut in a few elk. The C shape cut created a flap and created a decent blood trail. With a head focused...

    Pants for Kodiak?

    I live in the pacific north west and struggled with pants. I've settled on rain gear after spending gobs of money on expensive stuff failing. I have some Rivers West rain gear, its lined canvas and slightly quieter and more durable than standard rain gear. My buddy did have decent luck with his...

    Pole Barn build

    Add some nice aggregate to your concrete and polish it. I will never not do slab on grade with polished concrete flooring. Its the most durable and budget friendly over epoxy or buying flooring.

    EBike for hunting......any recommendations on make (Rambo, QuietKat, etc) and/or model.

    On Amazon, it seems to work well with shorter rifles. I also use it for my bow. Its a little tight fitting it into the back of my truck with a canopy, if I were to change anything i would have them on a quick detach style mounting. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0084BBJ0C?ie=UTF8&th=1

    Looking at new range finders

    I've been happy with my Sig rangefinder. It has my rifle compensating ballistics built into it. A friend of mine had an issues with his, the laser was off a little. Not bad enough to use, Sig ended up replacing it with a better model. It would be nice to have some dope on my rangefinder for...

    Tikka stock questions

    If you can find a Tikka youth stock they're awesome but hard to find. My buddys son who is now 6'-3" still prefers his youth stock. You might look into a MDT chassis, I bought one a few years ago for $300 around black Friday or another end of the year sale. I went with a locking Magpul...

    Roasts or Burger?

    I just do burger and roasts, easier to process. Create whatever you want with that in the off season. Larger roasts go in the crock pot Smaller roasts get seasoned for 24hours, then grilled/seared, once the roast is browned you baste with some garlic herb butter. Then slice your perfectly...

    Portable game hoist

    I want to see an elk hanging on that thing :LOL: I would hate to pack anything like that around. Harbor Freight rope hoist and welding some 2" square tubing at the tuck. Meat pole at camp or gutless in the field quarter out, bagged on the ground or in a tree.

    Ac unit suggestions

    Don't upsize, you'll have evaporator freezing issues. Bigger isn't better is a balanced system Replace like for like or replace the whole system. You might be able to do a 2.5 ton but thats it.
