    Carbon vs Aluminum

The worst experience I ever had was with a PSE and I don’t plan on owning another one. I have never owned a carbon bow so I was just wondering if they...

    Carbon vs Aluminum

    This is basically where I’m at also, I will be retiring and moving to MS in less than 2-years. The aluminum bows have came a long ways for sure. This bow will also be packed on mules for getting further back into the wilderness on certain hunts. I have looked at some used bows but honestly there...

    Carbon vs Aluminum

    Not really much weight difference between the two Hoyt’s I was looking at. It seems the most common thing I hear/read is about the carbon bow not getting cold.

    Carbon vs Aluminum

    Hello, thinking about upgrading my bow and was wondering if the carbon riser was worth all the extra money? I have never shot a carbon bow. Also, I’m referring to the Hoyt bows since that’s what I have always shot. Thanks

    Looking for suggestions on a tent for AK

    I have used Cabela’s Guide tents(4 and 8 man) in the Brook’s range and never had a problem. The weather can get crappy and stay crappy for several days up there. I have lived in Fairbanks and hunted the North Slope for almost 30 years.

    Quick Setup wall tent - Davis GO Tent, 10x15, etc

    I hadn’t thought about just cutting a center/door pole once out in the field for it. I’m leaning more towards the Elk Mountain tent.

    Quick Setup wall tent - Davis GO Tent, 10x15, etc

    Thanks for the help and information, I had it narrowed down to pretty much Elk Mountain, Stout or a Reliable Teton 12x12x4. The floor doesn’t remove out of the White Duck.

    Quick Setup wall tent - Davis GO Tent, 10x15, etc

    What size is your Elk Mountain? How many people with a stove will it fit? How hard is it to setup without the floor in it? Sorry for all the questions, this tent picking thing is killing me. 😂

    Quick Setup wall tent - Davis GO Tent, 10x15, etc

    Do you pack it in on horses/mules? How many people and a stove would fit in your tent? I have been looking at Elk Mountain, Stout and White Duck bell tents. White Duck’s is the only one with the floor sewn in, the other two zip in.

    Deal on tikka’s

    I have a T3 Lite 300 wsm and it’s a pleasure to shoot without anything on the barrel. It’s killed a lot of animals.

    Down booties

    I do believe First Lite has a pair now. I don’t remember the name of mine but they are awesome. I wear them at night whether I’m using my quilt or sleeping bag.
