    Slik 833 CF Tripod Multiuse

    The 833 is a big tripod. I just don't want to get one that will fail overtime if used for a shooting tripod. I will be developing a load over this late spring and summer and want to get my shooting aid dialed in. My sister and her husband have been in this area hunting twice now and what I...

    Slik 833 CF Tripod Multiuse

    Wanted to get some feedback on whether the Slik 833 would be acceptable to use for a shooting tripod. I hope to be doing an open country elk hunt this fall. I want to be able to glass/photograph/video/shoot from one tripod. This model lists a 15 lb load limit. Will be shooting tikka t3x...

    Most expensive piece of gear you've lost on a hunt?

    Knives, gloves, hats, calls, seat cushions, headlamps, flashlights. Notice multiples of each one. I'd lose my ass if not part of my body. I've done alot better the past few years. A friend of mine worked for the utility and they did a thing called circle of safety. Had a magnet that you put...

    Filling the freezer!

    Took my first deer with a bow in many years. Hope she will be the first of at least several more. Just got back into the compound game and being serious about it. It turned into a perfect stalk setup. Coming up the mountain really slow and methodical. Spotted a group of deer at about 45 yards...

    Substantial improvements to hunting gear in the last 10 years?

    As I started to think about it I almost can't believe how much the gear I am using has improved in the past ten years. I am probably more frugal now than I was then. Now I invest in gear instead of just buying s%@$. It kind of started with my first pair of three layer goretex Simms waders. At...

    Western Mountaineering Opinions

    I looked it over put it in the storage sack and hung it in the closet. I haven't felt bad about it other than hitting the checkout button. I've saved and scratched for a while now and researched it to death. I guess I will see how it does in 4 or so months. I sleep cold so I'd say it could see...

    Western Mountaineering Opinions

    I just took shipment of the WM kodiak today. I've been eyeing them for a year now. I've fondled some of the higher rated bags at the local outfitters. I am very impressed the product out of the box. Do you guys find these bags as impressive as their billing?

    Kifaru Dominating the Hunting Market

    It's good stuff no doubt about that. It's hard to convince your average guy that he should spend 700+ bucks on a pack. Most people in my opinion come to the market for a very specific reason. Seems that kifaru does a dang good job of being at the forefront of the market. With that being said I...

    Sleeping Pad Patch?

    My Nemo air pad came with material to match top and bottom. Use some seam grip or aqua seal. Depending on the size of the hole a small dab of sealant will probably do the job. I believe that for pin size holes instructions for repair will call for the dab of sealant method. If you are looking at...

    Kimber 84m

    I picked up a Kimber 84M hunter pro in .308 in the gun library at Cabelas. It appeared to be new and unfired in the box. That particular version is on sale at Cabelas for 899$ right now. I came in 200$ less than that tax included. What thoughts do you guys that own these rifles have about them...
