    When I'm Not Hunting, or Riding, I'd Rather be Fishing

    So what do y'all fish for? This is my favorite. They weren't touching the bottom bouncers this weekend, but a few really love the Bomber Model A's. From field to table.

    Phone Skope? Bah Humbug

    When I first bought a spotting scope 8 or 10 years ago, I bought a phone scope. Within 6 months I got a different phone and couldn’t use my fairly new purchase I had made in that Phoneskope. Unless I purchased another case. So that was the last of looking at game with a cell phone. Until now...

    Building Arrows; It’s not Complicated

    Ok so I’ve listened to several “long winded” podcasts recently regarding building arrows and which arrows are best and which components “you need” to build that perfect arrow. By the time I was done listening to all this crap, I am even more convinced that keeping it simple is all a guy needs to...

    For those who hunt and have hunted in the snow, what is the general pattern of movement as the snow depths increase at high elevation 11k+ and gradually starts accumulating down to say 8500’? Talk to me about your strategies leading up too and into the rut.

    Backpack Improvements

    Have backpacks reached their peak performance? Admittedly there are a few i havent tried because they are made in or have parts made in china. Thanks Kifaru for not bending the knee to the communist party. That being said there havent been any new innovations to make the frames any better by any...

    And so the Debate Rages on (Alpha or Beta?)

    Are your calls loud, obnoxious, intimidating and challenging? Or are they squeaky, soft and feminine? There are podcasters, bloggers and pay sites who swear by cow calling, most recently Snyder jumping on that train, and then you have the flip side where bugling is best. What has worked more...

    Last Minute Gear Items; Check Your List Twice

    What are you adding or replacing at the 11th hour? I just replaced my 3L Camelbak with a 3L UL Platypus when I discovered the Camelbak leaking on my antelope hunt a couple weekends ago. That’s the 2nd Camelbak that has leaked in 15 years. Not a dig on Camelbak. I’m hard on gear and I probably...

    Lunch on the Mountain

    What are y'all eating on the mountain mid day? 16 years of September elk and i still havent found anything i really love for lunch on the mountain. I guess crunchy peanut butter and honey is probably what ive liked most but it is so heavy if you are doing a backcountry hunt.

    Backpack Hunting in the Gila Wilderness

    Welp? I've been blessed to draw the Gila again! Nowhere else id rather be even if im not hunting. Every day is an adventure in the Gila. I have no doubt i have stepped on ground where virtually no human has stepped. I've seen the wild at its wildest. And it's not always good. Ive seen where...
