    Anyone Shooting Prime?

    I shot a Prime RVX 34 last year. First time shooting a Prime and I was blown away by it. Would recommend it to anyone and everyone and I may actually try a Prime Form this year after spending most of my season with a Hoyt RX8 last year. I do know a place that has a Prime RVX 34 for sale but not...

    Experience in a OTC unit versus a new, "Better" unit

    I always tend to try and hunt at least 1 new unit or location each year. If nothing else, maybe apply for the same unit but hunt a different location in that unit and then have your go to location as a fall back if you can’t get into elk. I will say, there’s something to be said about the...

    How many states do you apply in?

    I’m applying to 3. MT, WY, CO Will do Mule Deer in 2. ND and SD. I’ve built out a full 10 year strategic plan for tags to get a better grip on how to hunt elk every year. Getting harder with OTC tags being virtually gone outside a few opportunities. Most years I’ll be applying to 2 or 3...

    Gen MT vs Archery CO (Solo Backpack)

    I’ve hunted both multiple years. I’d say Colorado. I think the theory on Colorado is that it’s jam packed with people and you can’t get to the spots you want to get to. What I can tell you is that in some units that is absolutely true and I’ve hunted in and around a lot of pressure in CO. But on...

    Am I crazy for expecting a leader ship role vs a lower stress position for close to the same money?

    What role gives you the opportunity to chase the quality of life you want? Do you have a desire to be a manager? Do you want to lead people or would it be more of the title that you’d want or the salary that comes with it? Speaking from experience as someone who has chased the dollars, titles...

    First time fully guided archery elk trip?

    I’m not sure what the going rate is for a cow hunt these days but I’ve had buddies do them in the $2500 to $3500 range. I’ve personally never done a fully guided elk hunt but looking back on my lack of archery success on elk, I’d recommend a guided hunt to help you shorten the learning curve...

    Multi Pursuit Clothing System

    My set up is probably a little different for what you’d need based on you wanting to hunt just turkey and whitetail. If it’s just turkey and whitetail that you are going after, I’d recommend the following: 1. Equinox guard pant. Lightweight, helps keep bugs, mosquitos, and ticks away and...

    Multi Pursuit Clothing System

    Ascent pants are lightweight, somewhat durable but not super durable and meant for early season hunts. Mountains pants are extremely durable, still fairly lightweight and fairly warm. Compatible with knee pads as well. Intercept pants are a mix of the two. Lightweight, yet durable. Wool/poly...

Elk in September in Montana, Colorado, Wyoming, etc. and Turkey in the spring here in MN with similar temp ranges. Here’s what I use and I think it would work for you as well. Pants: Intercept pants...

    Arrow speed

    I always shoot for between 450 - 500 grains. I’ve been around 440 as well and have had good luck with all of those weight combos. For speed I usually end up around 280 to 290 fps. I tend to think those are good weight and speed measurements to be at. I use the same set up from whitetail in...

    How do you organize your application strategy

    I’ve built out a spreadsheet for Mule Deer and Elk. I have developed different key statistics that I look at over a span of few years. Focus on total elk and mule deer numbers combined with harvest numbers a few other key factors. I will say, GoHunt has some good options for building out hunt...
