Your top takeaways/tips & tricks from Rokslide

[wnelson14]

Only buy hunting gear used or new, that has good resale on Rokslide. I didn’t really learn that on here but have just observed that recently, by seeing the stuff that doesn’t sell and or sells in minutes.

Walmart solid color Wrangler sport pants are the only thing I wear in the field now.

Same here!

For sure.
Another tactic is to buy stuff off Kuiu outlet and re-sell it at regular price.
Or if you get pro pricing on optics, you list them for sale used for $300-$400 more than you paid new… but don’t EVER comment on the price being high . EVER!

If you didn't kill your sheep at 13,000+ just hang it up and go buy some golf clubs.

Nobody but @cnelk knows how the Colorado draw works.

Meme makers are underappreciated.

Hotdogs are sammiches.

That there is only one person in this entire world that could truly win Alone. Everyone else are just a bunch of posers.

That people do steal other peoples deer under the cover of night.

That there are some quality meme makers in our ranks.

That hunting out of state is doable.

Set your drop chart as the lock screen on your phone. All you have to do is hit the side button and bingo, data right in front of you.
Not sure who I learned that from but it was definitely from this site.

Dooooooode, how have I missed that all these years on Here? That’s awesome thanks for mentioning it

I was trying to determine if I should get a 6.5 prc and get away from my 30-06, during internet travels multiple times discussions popped up on Rokslide. Now, I have a new 6.5 prc, trijicon scope, and navigated my bipod setup, and am a F…ing New Guy on rokslide. Thanks for all the great info.

Switching to MILs full time instead of bouncing back and forth and "favoring" MOA.

Its nearly impossible to hunt and kill big game if you dont have a SWFA, NF, Trijicon, or Maven Scope.....

I learned that after somehow lucking into killing numerous animals successfully with Zeiss

Lots of good examples here.
I’ll go with dedicated practice rifle in .223
A joy to shoot and cheap to boot.
Took it out today and shot out to 500 in the wind…you learn things.
