    Pack frame for saddle hunting

    I know this is mostly a western hunting forum but I figure a lot of yall hunt whitetail in the east, and are more familiar with pack frames, so I'm coming to yall for advice. I'm ditching the heavy/bulky/loud climber this year and plan to give saddle hunting a try. So I'm in the market for a...

    Guide Etiquette

    Lately I've been looking into guides to try and plan a CO OTC hunt for my dad (2024 so it's seems I'm early) - looking into private land DIY/trespass fee hunt specifically (though open to other situations). But I've had some unexpected experience with guides. Only a few have replied to my...

    Hunting partner Louisiana

    I'm looking for some new hunting partners from my home state of Louisiana. I have a few friends who hunt in Louisiana but honestly not many, and most of them have their own private land. Not to mention they haven't turned out to take western hunting seriously. They'll say the want to go but...

    Long draw odds calculator

    I'm relatively new to hunting and even newer to hunting out west. Been on 2 trips, one successful (but I've started pilling up hogs, white tail and even a few alligators on public land in LA). It's becoming more apparent from reading rokslide and podcasts etc how bad draw odds are going to be...

    WTS Kuiu 5500 LT bag only - NWT

    Selling my kuiu 5500 LT pro bag in Vias (new with tags). Bought last year but we ended up not backpacking in so I bought a smaller bag. For those wondering about the Kuiu frame I love it and regularly use the meat shelf to haul a 40 pound salt bag up and down stadiums. The 5500 is pretty big...

    WTS 30-06 and 308 ammo

    Sorry I know most of these boxes have a few rounds shot, I'm just shooting a different caliber this year and not going to use these any time soon. Definitely can negotiate on price if buying more than one. Brass is a throw in unless someone wants to offer me money for it. All prices are TYD and...

    Women's back pack

    Planning to bring my wife on her first elk hunt in CO this fall (I drew, she didn't unfortunately but at least one of us have a tag as planned). She's never been so needs all the typical gear. We're planning on camping from truck so day hikes are all we're doing but I will need help packing out...

    Gun/caliber for wife's cow elk hunt

    So I'm hopefully taking my wife on a cow elk hunt this year and I'm having trouble deciding on a gun and what cartridge to go with. Only rifle I have is the 3006 Remington 700 which honestly just doesn't shoot well so I'm looking for an excuse to get a good rifle that she can use on this cow elk...

    Colorado rifle dates

    I'm sure there's a thread somewhere discussing it but I haven't seen one so I thought I'd start one. With the CO applications coming up and the date changes last year how much did people see the date change effect the hunt? Going back it seems 2nd rifle is always the worst time to hunt basically...

    Colorado mule, 1 point, trespass fee?

    Hey I'm hoping to get some recommendations on people who offer trespass fees in units that are pretty easy to draw with 0-1 points. I'm bringing my wife on her first western hunt (hoping for 3rd season) so I'm hoping to avoid the kind of terrain that would make it miserable for her. Been looking...

    New Mexico Mule Deer for NR

    So I'm a NR from Louisiana trying to plan my second mule deer hunt. Last year I went to Wyoming on DIY on one of their general tags and had a great time but we didn't see any deer in a week of hard hunting (we were a little too early for the migration). I'm dedicated and not shy about putting in...

    Truck camping sleeping pad

    I'm new to hunting out west and planning a mid October mule deer hunt and trying to save money where possible considering it's a lot of gear I'm investing in. Anyone have any recommendations for sleeping pad when tent camping out of the truck? I don't need the most lightweight option because I'm...

    Wyoming irrigation tag

    Hey so I'm planning on putting in for Wyoming mule deer and was also going to put in for a WT doe/fawn only tag that allows hunting only on or within 1/2 mile of irrigation land. Never hunted a tag like this before so I was wondering if anyone's had experience with it. I can get more specific in...

    Kuiu Pro Lt 5500 hydration

    So I recently bought the 5500 bag, figured it was good weight and just the right amount of space and it is. But it doesn't have a hydration sleeve which I thought it did, couldn't find any exact info on it and a video on the LT 4000 showed a sleeve so I figured the 5500 would too. Only solution...
