The ol nomad loaded with 7 days of gear!

[littlebuf]

6'5" 235# 34 years old. i run daily and lift in the off season. 50 pounds is cake for me, but thats me. like jason, the weight i posted is for every thing including my bow. so take out the weapon and im around 43 for 7 days with food and water. ive cut my gear down to pretty well min and theres really no need to try and get any lighter. if a new piece of gear happens to be a few ounces less than what its replacing then great, but its not my focus any more. im right where i want to be gear wise, from here on out its just new toy syndrome if im replacing stuff

 

[littlebuf]

not a nomad but im board and antsy waiting to leave tomorrow so i wanted to play too. here the T 1 ready to go. 7 days in the pack, 7 more in the cooler. not coming home till im tagged out or the season ends. either way its going to be a great time

Good luck Trevor. Are you going solo?

 

[ohhiitznik]

I'm 29 6'4 265 lbs. I train regularly with over 100 lbs in the Boise foothills.

Nice littlebuf I like your color scheme. What kind of bow is that?

 

[littlebuf]

that's elites E35. to date the best bow ive ever shot. Brocks coming in Thursday night for the weekend. Justin is hiking in some time the last week and at some point Brandon's going to come straggling in from north Dakota reeking of crude oil im sure. heading is solo though

I am 5'9" and 195. I carry 65 to 70 lbs for 9 days. I have done up to 85 on the way in before but that included a treestand.

 

[ohhiitznik]

I almost bought an e35 but I opted for the Hoyt faktor because I got a deal on it from a guy on this site. What kind of speeds are you getting with yours?

 

[littlebuf]

82# 31" draw @ 292fps with a 526 gr arrow. to say it has some energy behind it is a bit of an understatement.

 

[ohhiitznik]

That'll do. That's for sure.

Nik, aren't you in the mountains with Goatnuts chasing elk? What are you doing cruising RS when you should be out stalking a bull?

Just loaded my Nomad up with five days of kit today.

38 lbs and a little change with bow and 3L of water. Pretty happy about that. Even threw in a few extras for good measure that may not leave the pickup in the end.

That's damn light.

Right on Bob! Is that Western Oregon, or Western Washington? Could be Alaska too, I guess. How about some hero shots?
