    Trekking Pole vs Freestanding Tents?

    I have an older tarptent trekking pole tent. Love it but only bring it when I know everything is soft ground. Nothing worse than kicking around for rocks and sticks to make tension or looking for a spot with more than an inch of dirt in the dark.

    Fancy smart watch worth it?

    Is there something you want it to do? I've had smart watches in the past and liked it for outdoor activities but not so much for day to day.

    Warmest Kuiu Mid Layer

    Only used it for a weekend hunt but really like my strongfleece 235 so far. weather was colder than forecasted and I spent a lot of time in it. As with all Kuiu clothing items, I went a size up and found the fit to be comfortable shooting a bow. Though I tuck the collar under my bino harness...

    Tell your Senators not to vote John Cornyn

    yes, he was CEO and they defrauded medicare etc. Entirely opinion - Thune, being from SD, is likely most sympathetic to the western hunter of the three. He's been Chief Deputy Whip and lead policy committees, so some relative experience. An empty suit wouldn't have weathered opposing Trump...

    KUIU pant sizing change?

    I find all their pants run small, especially if you plan to layer. I like the lack of stretch but I do size up for most Kuiu gear.

    Does CZ still make the 457 American Combo (.22LR and 17hmr)

    They pop up on CalGuns from time to time. There is a 455 combo for sale in Sac/Yuba area on there right now. No one is going to ship on that site. Gave up on rimfire for squirrels, steel shot or a halfway decent air rifle.

    Summer Olympics?

    US womens rugby put on a good show. Archery is cool to watch. The shooting sports are a bit boring for me, given stuff like USPSA and 3 Gun. Kinda nice to have shooting sports in media/social media that aren't a joke about rednecks. Opening ceremony, culture war BS discourse, is uninteresting...

    Suggestions for a recoil shy rifle

    CA compliant ARs suck but it's a hunting rifle. He could make it a straight pull even. Currently in the same situation and did the tikka thing. Interested in the DRT ammo, hopefully I can find a pig once I get some to add to the 223 megathread.

    Maven Riflescope Recommendation?

    Sort of going rate for the SWFA 6x. It’s a popular and often recommended scope here. You can find them for closer to the listed price but you’ll have to wait and scour the forums.

    Favorite weightlifting programs

    No way to cheat the sandbag! My dad is mid 60s and can still smoke me up the hill, fit old guys are machines. It's a good goal and they all seem to have similar builds - lean and a bit sinewy. Strong as hell. I'm only a few years into my 30s and the heavy lifting wrecks me. It's fun so I'll...

    Favorite weightlifting programs

    This was the one I forgot and is what brought me to the other programs I enjoy. I still run base building from time to time and like the challenge workouts. Tactical Barbell and others like Modern Athlete Strength/FBB let me stack another fitness task like running or specified task like...
