    Orvis Upland Sling Pack thoughts

    Those final rise are nice. I am not ever gonna wear the cheap vest I have out, and only upland hunt 4-6 days a year, so will probably never get a nicer one. Hasn't orvis made a sling pack for every outdoor activity now?

    Alpaca wool is better than merino.....

    Alpaca wool makes my feet sweat bad. Merino, same weight, I'm good. Don't use alpaca any more.

    Guys that drive a long ways to hunt, what are your less common(but important) pieces of gear/tools you're sure to keep in the truck?

    1/2 inch impact and socket set are SOP. Also, a smallish, 1x1 piece of 3/4 inch plywood in case I have to jack up vehicle on soft ground. Gives you a platform. Also, a small tool bag gets used all the time. Had to beat out a fender on a trailer recently and the estwing hammer was invaluable.

    Are Talley rings a reliable choice?

    My 300wsm is on its second set and they are cracked. I'm moving to something more stout.

    Terminal Ascent Performance?

    As mentioned above, the edge TLR was the 3rd gen before the terminal ascent. Reports were that it was unstable in a lot of calibers. It shoots fantastic in my 300wsm. I think the difference between it and the TA is more grooves? Still have two boxes of the edge TLR.

    Altitude sickness question

    I've taken Diamox 3 times and never had a problem. I live at 500 ft, so last time (2020) I spent a night at about 7K and then went into a wall camp at 11.3K. I was winded, but didn't have any sickness. Killed a nice 6x5 bull on the 3rd day. For the kind if transition OP is talking about and...

    How do you pay for your gear?

    I'm not buying too much gear for big game hunting now. Pretty well outfitted. I spend more on ammo than anything else now. I love duck hunting and duck hunters are insanely dumb and spend a ton on trying to kill a few ducks. Guilty. I've got everything I need, but am always upgrading...

    You like your truck camper shell for Hunting?

    Won't own a truck without one. Hot this time of year for dog, but a fan on the kennel and windows on the side do wonders. Come November thru January when we are chasing ducks from ND to AR, he'll appreciate the lack of wind. I appreciate it for keeping gear dry and from dirt accumulation on...

    Which game bags? (Brand/size)

    Black ovis. Have a deer set and a elk set. After use, soak in a 5 gallon bucket with dish soap and warm water. Rinse inside and out. Use hydrogen peroxide on blood stains that are persistent. Mine are 6 or 7 seasons old.

    Jimmy John kills potential new state record sheep in NM

    Good for him. The gov tag is one animal. That animal, however glorious and majestic it may be, gives life to many more animals through the money. It's not European, it is distinctly American.

    Do you only grind your own wild game?

    When I process my meat, I debone, cut roasts/steaks and freeze then I trim all my grind meat so it essentially ready to grind and I freeze it in 5 lb bags. This above process took me almost 7 hours for last elk. For a deer, its just a couple of hours. Then on another day, I grind. The meat...
