    Plans for the upcoming season!

    Some are dependent on draw, but my odds are pretty high so we'll see what happens. KS mule deer or whitetail. Depends on what I scout up. CO private land mule deer. Either NM landowner elk or CO leftover elk hunt. (Maybe try to sneak in both) Put in for the KS pronghorn draw and see what...

    Kansas DIY

    Zap is sharing some words of wisdom. The other thing I might add is looking to hunting pre rut. Late Oct bucks will be moving and generally less pressure. Beat the crowds that hunt the November time. Might get you a little more peace and quiet.

    Kansas DIY

    I’m from western KS, so not the classic whitetail country. Those units are great areas. You can get permission, but it’s pretty limited and the best ground is usually leased or tied up somehow. It can’t hurt to be polite and reach out. You never know what you might come across when you ask! Just...

    Crossbow - Barnett Predator 430fps

    Anyone have this crossbow and have any comments? From what I've read its a pretty good shooter. Also, any comments on bolts for hunting. Looking for a nice blend of weight and speeds, but accurate.

    Open Country Elk

    I’m interested in hunting elk out in the lower elevation wide open. Sage brush/grasslands. Doesn’t seem like there’s much on this topic, but want to learn more! Curious what experience you all have had or seen and any success you’ve had!

    Rain Gear for Early Aug in CO for Archery season

    I went to New Mexico Oct 1 last year for elk, and sat under a tree in a downpour for 3-4 hours. I was happy I was wearing rain gear. Another thing I was happy about, after the rain it was cloudy and humid. Nothing dried out after the storm. Walking through trees that are still dripping wet and...

    New pack - Kifaru or Mystery Ranch

    I run a Mystery Ranch Metcalf and I have been very pleased. It handles weigh great and feels EXTREMELY comfortable. The pack material itself is extremely durable, too. If you count oz's there could be better options. It's a touch on the heavier side, but I don't mind that.

    Bugs and Critters Inside

    I'm looking at running a floorless shelter with a stove jack to hopefully have a lightweight tent for early season and a tent that won't break the back come late season staying warm by the fire. My question for you is, are bugs and rodents, etc actually bad about coming inside and worth worrying...

    New Mexico Draw

    I put in for elk. A combo of muzzleloader and rifle in early to mid October! This is my second year putting in, didn't draw last year. But, got a landowner tag and had a rutting herd bull going crazy in a herd of cows calling back and forth with my friend one morning. Awesome experience! New...

    Hello from Western Kansas!

    Hello all! I've spent around 15 years chasing upland birds with my german shorthairs, hunting whitetail and mule deer and pronghorn. Just starting venturing out west for elk and mule deer. I've caught the bug and not mad about it! I love spending hours researching hunts, gear and looking at...
