    Thinking about hunting solo....

    When I go out I am usually alone... Though often I hanker for pleasant company. Alone I am able to focus better, be more mindful, and ponder my place in this massive world while I stare up at the trees and sky. With company, I have the benefit of someone to reflect off of, and my experience...

    New Burqueña Hunter

    Hi all! Just an Albuquerque native who got into duck hunting last year, and upland hunting this year. Next year I hope to get a big game tag! But I think birds and shotgunning will always be my favorite, hehe. It is so much fun to shoot multiple moving targets! I like that waterfowl are...

    Getting Into Hunting, Want A Proper Pack (and other gear)

    Well I bought the Serac, as a part of Argali's 'Backcountry Field Kit'. I don't have game bags either, and I love the look of these (and that I am assured they can handle up to an entire bull elk!) This company is fast growing on me. ^_^

    Getting Into Hunting, Want A Proper Pack (and other gear)

    Thanks Marbles, I appreciate the thoughtful reply! Your personal checklist is very useful. I have a stove, but actually don't know if I have a thermarest. I have read the Argali Serac knife is pretty good as an all-rounder, and the $200 price point is reasonable. Having never field dressed big...

    Getting Into Hunting, Want A Proper Pack (and other gear)

    Getting Into Hunting, Want A Proper Pack (and other gear)

    Hi All, I've only hunted waterfowl, upland birds, and small game so far. But am gonna get a muzzleloader (or learn how to use a crossbow) next season, and I want to go out big game and turkey hunting. I was supposed to go on an elk hunt last week with my roommate, but she canceled because she...

    New to squirrels

    I hunted them the first time this Fall while going for grouse, used my 20ga. Though I messed up and put them in the freezer before cleaning them... they are still there! xD I should probably throw them out and go hunt some more.

    Upland shotguns

    I have a 20ga Ithaca 200e SxS, but the comb is a bit low for me. It doesn't point as naturally as I'd like. Although, that didn't stop me from getting a grouse double the first time I went out haha~ I'm thinking of getting a new double gun in 20ga or 28ga- one that fits a bit better, and I that...

    12 Gauge vs 20 Gauge for bird hunting

    Yeah, if you are hunting waterfowl and often take long shots (jump hunting, early season, w/e the reason) strongly consider getting some BOSS bismuth 3" shells. Once you start using those puppies, your gun options open up! For example, you can get 1 1/4oz of bismuth in a 3" 20 gauge shell- more...
