The plan right now is to hike with camp on the back. Go back to the truck halfway through and get the rest of the food. So if we are lucky enough to actually get something, camp in the meat shelf would get in the way
WTB exo pack system for my first archery elk hunt this year. I believe I will need a medium belt and regular frame size.
Ideally multi cam or fusion pattern but open to see what's out there.
Trying to buy everything at once is expensive so testing the used waters first. Thanks.
I have 100 only bullets of Barnes TTSX copper in .308 that I never reloaded. I would like to trade for some good 6.5 creedmoor rounds.

Awesome info guys! Greatly appreciated. I didn't realize deer fed all night. Not really something I have noticed or would notice hunting white tails in Texas.

Awesome, thanks man! That actually explains a lot because when we finally did locate the buck on the 5th morning (which we would have been happy to take) we were hiking in the dark up to our glassing spot. All we saw were glowing eyes and couldn't tell if we were seeing doe or buck. We were...
So will you move away from fresh deer sign if you are unable to actually locate a buck?
We discussed that but kept telling ourselves, don't leave deer to find deer. We just have to locate them because we know they are here. We may have been doing something wrong and there is a lot more to it...
