    Struggling to find Fall Turkey South East Idaho

    I haven't done any turkey hunting this year but I have run into quite a few of them up near Rexburg and the Palisades. I have not heard much nor had many of them respond to my attempt at calling them with my mouth. I have always seen them at lower elevations too. I can only imagine that they go...

    Best beginner mallard call?

    My favorite call was gifted to me by my grandfather years ago and is so worn down that I can't even read what it is! I hope I never lose it! More recently I got the double shot by field proven calls and have been liking it a lot. I would say it's an "easier" call to learn on.

    Sleeping bag recommendations

    it's been said, but I'll say it again--the thermarest Xtherm or any good pad with a high r value is the key to getting that bag to work properly. I run that pad with a bivy from sub zero temps to 40+ all day long and can get away with a 0 or 20 degree quilt just fine. Without the pad and bivy I...

    Tent recommendations

    I am a big fan of the KUIU 1 person summit star. I bring it even when I plan on sleeping in the car. Gives me the versatility of packing up and hiking away from the car if need be. Even though it's a lightweight 1 person tent it feels like a 3-man because of the vestibule. It's very comfortable...
