A good hunting partner. I get real bored solo. Have other friends I flat cannot hunt with. -
Spotting scopes…
I'm a buy once cry once guy. Unless your hunt is purely a big area spot and stalk gig, keep the $600 in your pocket and save to let it double or triple. Then maybe let that amount do it again, depending how high end you want to go... if you really need the spotter, $600 will be tough to find the... -
New Mexico Elk Draw 2024
17th is my bet. Is 2 tags in 3 years too much to hope for? -
Elevation change to stop other hunters
I killed a ~350 bull a half mile from a road, 600' up. Watched cars driving by in the dark as I broke him down.. Never have seen another hunter up there and had several other close encounters both before and since. I've done 4 miles and 2500' before daylight only to be covered up with dudes.. Do... -

Alice Pack
I packed out several deer and bears with an old Alice frame. When I was a kid my step-dad only ran Alice packs and got me one. I got a cabelas external when I turned 18 and considered that a Cadillac compared to the Alice. -

Archery Elk shoulder blade shot
I shot a cow at 53 yards about 8 years ago and got a pass through on the offside shoulder blade. 70#, 30 in draw, 480ish grains, fixed blade. She went about 30 yards and stood there for a few minutes before she tipped over -
Western WA
Lots of people, some elk depending on where you go. Stick to cow calls and raking as using your bugle tube announces your location broadly and you may find 2 or 3 other dudes chasing you around. I've had a number of hot bulls going only to have dudes appear from up wind and blowing up my whole... -

Tee pee tent
If you plan to backpack it in you'll have to spend a bit of coin. Minimum for 2 people and a stove would be a 4-5 man. There are a pile of companies making quality products. I have an old golite SL5 I still use that will sleep 3 comfortably without a stove and not too much gear. Requires... -

Do you intend to sleep 4 people in it? Do you want stove compatible? Where do you plan to use it? -

Kifaru Bino Harness Review
The mountains of SW WA aren't the tallest but they do rise sharply. Keeping the harness in my rain gear results in steamy glass and a damp harness anyhow just from body heat. Would keep the bucket dry, but the glass is un-useable without a cleaning either way. -
Kifaru Bino Harness Review
Put the harness through its paces and feel comfortable writing my thoughts. I have run a vortex generic, kuiu(original), and ADAK. I would rate the kif above all of the harnesses listed above, knowing I haven't run all the other options on the market. Its a Med with just the RF pouch and my... -
