    Do you hunt from home?

    It's not easy but I have So Cal national forest out of my back yard and hunt from my house most of the time. Feel pretty blessed to have access to nature so close.

    Am fortunate enough to make this work and I feel like it's been the single most important thing I have given my son so far.

    Dewalt 20v Chainsaw

    Got one today. Already have the bigger Stihl, but have always been impressed with my Buddies Dewalt. Already have batteries and happy to have a lighter total package saw for trail work.

    Best tenkara rod?

    Have a buddy that has sold me on use cases where a tenkara make sense. He has caught a bunch on his in small streams, there is a pretty good learning curve on line management so you don't get hung up or break anything but he seems to have it down.

    Sleeping bags.

    I am not a big dude, but think you'd be a good use case for a zen bivy. Check it out and see what you think. I sleep like a baby in mine, love how roomy it feels.

    Trail Access Restrictions - No UTVs = No Horses

    Lol, if she wasn't a 2nd mom to me, helped raise me and have known me my whole life I may agree with you. I've met some crazies in the past. The 1st was a girl that taught us how to have cow pie fights for fun... 1st time I ever saw someone ok with sticking their hands in fresh cow shit.

    Trail Access Restrictions - No UTVs = No Horses

    Friends mom has horses and has always said "If you ever need help packing into a camp or packing an animal out, please let me know. My horses love to get out and they could use all the practice and conditioning they can get." I have yet to take her up on the offer but after sharing a night in...

    This is what I use. I am 6' and hunt in really steep country and haven't found a situation it hasn't worked. Glad I have the extra height.

    Out with a bang!

    Man did you ever have hair like your son? If so did you have to mourn the loss of hair as it happened? Speaking from a dad that is losing his hair and shaving it short now. Congrats as well, sharing memories with your boy is special. Took my 7 year old out for his 1st night out to hunt this...

    When do you need to take winter conditions seriously on mountain roads?

    Sounds like you learned a lot. I am on year 5 of big game hunting in California and feel like I learn a little each year. Keep at it, its not easy here, keep learning and try to get out after season I see quite a few more bucks during the rut than I do during our season and have found a few...

    In What Order Should I Buy Gear?

    Considering where you are hunting, I'd make sure your clothing and boots are up to the task so you can spend more time in the field. If you are wet and miserable you won't be focused on hunting or be able to stay out long enough to be effective.

    Suggestions for quality, simple bino straps (not pouch/harness)

    I tried the vortex ones and they just kept stretching. I would look for something leather or non stretchy. I went with a marsupial and I have liked it so far. Interested to see what people suggest as well.

    Boots for barefoot/minimalists

    I didn't have much of an issue switching to barefoot shoes for every day shoes but haven't made the switch yet to boots. Whatever you get, make sure it's a wide. I got Schnees timberline in wide as I started. My feet were able to splay out and made a world of difference in comfort. As I am...
