    Need help with a saddle hunting pack

    As the title states I need help finding a saddle hunting pack. I have been through a few packs and there always seems to be something I don't like about the packs I get. I currently have a Trophyline Sumpter pack and like it but the two main things I dislike about the packs is what makes me want...

    Rifle is finally heading to the gunsmith.

    So I decided to go a different route in regards to a whitetail/elk rifle. I wanted a rifle that shot a heavier bullet slower (2400-2700f fps), still had decent BCs to shoot out to 400 yards if need be, and very mild recoil. So I opted for the 338 federal. Granted the 358 Winchester was...

    Need help fixing target panic.

    First I want to say whoever is getting in the woods this year good luck I sure as heck wish I was out there with yall vs being in this dang desert. With that said I’m currently thinking about revamping my archery set up to what it used to be due to possible self-induced target panic. To give a...

    G5 came out with some new heads.

    Looks like G5 decided to step up this year. The montec Mx3 honestly intrigues me the most. Montec M3 and it looks like it is only offered in 100 grains. I'm curious to the blade thickness and how sharp you can actually get the blades compared to VPA...

    Thoughts on 80lb bows.

    So over the last year I have had the pleasure of shooting a couple 80lb bows around the 330-340ibs and some high rated IBO 70lb bows in the 350+ibo speeds. From what I have experienced I am starting to love the 80lb bows over the fast 70lb bows. Over the course of a year I have had or shot the...

    Which broadhead is this?

    Stumbled on this picture and from listening to his podcasts we all know he likes Ironwill alot... Could this possibly be a bigger cutting ironwill? It almost looks like an Ironwill from the shape. Or am I wishful thinking?

    Bow string color

    Just bought a 2018 Elite Impulse 34. Soon she is getting 80lb limbs, cable guard is being swapped for a Saunder Hyperglide, and probably ritual cams put on her since my tech doesn't have any energy cams. With the extra weighted limbs I'm swapping out the winner choice strings for a set of...

Reason I'm...

    Already planning for next year... Which days in September

    So this year wasn't as eventful in the realm of elk rutting for me and next year I would like to try and optimize when I go so I can experience it. Not just trying to kill an elk but I want to experience the bulls chasing and screaming. With that I'm planning to go next year to hunt 15 days...

    Hows Colorado Archery season been?

    Just thought I would get a thread started on how everyone's Colorado Archery elk season has been? I will be leaving Wednesday for about 10 days of hunting around 9,500-12,000 feet in elevation. How has it been: Wet/Dry? Bulls starting to Bugle? Chasing? Any success?

    Need some help with my pack list for elk hunt

    Sorry if I posted this in the wrong forum but I wasn't sure if this went in the gear, clothing, or elk page. For a Colorado 10 day high altitude (10,000+ feet) how many pairs of pants and shirts do you take? The reason I ask if because when I am in the field for the Army I may go through two...

    SR6 72lbs vs RX1 at 83lbs pretty interesting speed results.

    I thought this was pretty interesting. Yesterday I went to have my Bowtech SR6 tuned. While talking to the shop owning he really wanted to shoot my 635 grain arrow through the chronograph and I wanted to shoot his 500 grain arrow just to see how my bow does with a lighter arrow. Specs for each...

    New bow... Bowtech SR6

    So I ended up selling my last bow and bought a new on.... Well what actually happened was I had a wild hair up my butt one day, walked into my local shop and shot one of their Realm SR6 and everything is history. As much as I love my E35 (back up now) I wanted a bow that I could yoke tune. So...

    Calorie/Macro intake review please

    I know I will loose weight, we all do during elk season. But do y'all think this caloric intake with supplements of BCAAs will be able to maintain energy levels? Current build as of right now is 253lbs and 6'2" and probably will be around 240lbs before I leave September 11th for my 10 day elk...

    Ozcut Hurricane Initial Thoughts.

    Last week I finally received my six 150 grain Ozcut Hurricanes in the mail. The cutting diameter is a 1 1/16th single bevel three blade and from Ozcut claims this will open up the wound channel more. All the podcasts I have listened to they never mentioned about the added bone busting ability of...
