My post was probably misleading by specifying a 90 minute ride. I'm preparing for a circumstance where I kill something on Friday, have it in the cooler by Friday night, hunt again on Saturday, then drive home on Sunday.
This seems simple enough. I was concerned about degradation from having the meat directly on ice. Maybe it's a non-factor. With the drain plug open, it shouldn't get soupy in the bottom.
I could use some advice on how to package and transport bone-in quartered venison in a cooler.
In previous years, I've simply dropped my deer off at the processor on my way home from my buddy's house where I hunt. This year I would like to process them myself. I'm planning on hanging and...
I ended up getting a Vanguard Sportsman's Warehouse edition. I was interested in this specific variant for the rust protection provided by the cerakote finish. The action is very smooth and I like the two-stage trigger.

I ended up buying a pair of the Walker Silencer 2.0 BTs. I bought them at Sportsman's Warehouse, but they were willing to price match Midway USA at $149.
I've worn them on several lengthy duck hunts and a trip to an outdoor range. So far, I've been pretty happy with them. They're comfortable...

I'm looking for a pair of active hearing protection earbuds that I can wear while hunting. Normally, I wear Howard Leight Impact Sports, but I don't like that they interfere with hooded jackets, impact cheek weld, and have godawful wind noise.
I think I may end up getting a pair of Walker...
I'm thinking about buy a 350L Vanguard for myself. I'm not a fan of some of the design features on the Ruger, mostly the magazine. Is it much more accurate than the Vanguard?
I recently acquired a 14 foot Meyer's Sportspal canoe that I'm planning on using for duck hunting this season. At 58 lbs, it's light enough that I can pick it up and put it on my roof rack by myself. With 650lbs of capacity, it should be more than capable of hauling two hunters and their gear...
