    Selling my spotter. Seeing if any interest if so will post pics. Glass is fine only thing is plastic sticky label on body came unglued. $400 plus shipping is what I paid looking for the same.

    Leupold and parallax

    For those who have shot them how important would the adjustment be needed on the VX3i 4.5-14 using the B&C reticle when shooting at 500 yards? The VX2 has the adjustment so it would make sense that it is probably something that is needed and most all other brand scopes in that price range of...

    The Tax Day Giveaway!

    this was not a backpack hunt, but that mystery ranch pack looks like it would have made this pack out from the bottom of the mountain much easier on my back.

    Thank you 1 Shot Gear for the Sitka giveaway. I went out to help a friend for a few days on his late season tag. on my last morning it got down to the high 30's with wind chill. The 90% would have done me well as I was very chilly for the first few hours.

    CA Blacktail

    The second weekend of the season found me still trying to help my cousin tag a deer. After some morning glassing we found a bear and no bucks. We headed to another ridge that had good amounts of bucks on the T-cams. While making our way on the south side of the ridge I spotted something shinny...

    2012 vs 2013 Icon suspension

    I have the 2012 Icon and cannot get rid of hipbone hotspots (with 50+lb in pack). I am considering selling the pack or trying the 2013 suspension. Anyone had the same issue and fixed it with the 2013 suspension?

    2013 Elk, Deer and Antelope Contest

    Lucky 365 Monday September 1st 2012 marked the beginning of what may now be a tradition. I was lucky enough to glass and put an effective spot-and –stalk on a forked horn mid-day. I circled around the deer while he fed and got above him before making a great lethal shot. My brother and I, later...
