    2019 Mystery Ranch Pack Review

    I like it so far. More than enough space for what I haul for day hunts. Kinda tricky to load up an animal the first couple of times just getting used to the load shelf. But I got my deer out in one trip and half a cow elk in a different trip and my shoulders and back felt way better the next...

    WYOMING Unit 82 Deer

    If you want to shoot a deer from your truck while watching tons of other people do the same, it’s the unit for you. There are big deer and there are places to get away from people but they are few and far between. Easy meat hunt in easy terrain. If that is what you are looking for, go for it...

    Rethinking Deer Gun

    You would not believe the difference a Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad will have on a rifle. I put a slip on one on my 300 win mag and it is a completely different gun now. They are only like 30-40 bucks I believe. Try that on the 30.06 and see how it goes. If not, 6.5 creedmoor has very...

    Spottng Scope to Phone Adapters

    Finally got out and used it. It is finicky and not easy to focus. I was only using it with the spotter attached the window of the truck so that may have added to the problems.

    Elk hunting pack question

    I have used a Horn Hunter Full Curl pack for the last 3 or 4 seasons. And while it was way better than slinging elk quarters over my shoulder like I did before I just keep thinking there has got to be better. I helped a buddy haul out a bull this year with it and was sore for a week. I know...

    National Elk Refuge

    Anyone ever hunted the National Elk Refuge? I see they have permission slips for the middle of October still available. I just moved to the Pinedale area so I have no idea how pressure or anything is around there. Would the elk even be there right now? Just looking at all my options on this side...

    GPS question

    My dad and I are looking at each getting a new GPS for elk hunting here in Wyoming. We want ones that let you see where other people in your party with a gps are just in case we get separated or something. I believe the Garmin Rino gps does this but am not sure. I think that's what they are...

    Scope question/ help troubleshooting

    Last summer my dad purchased a new buckmaster 2 scope for his 300 wm. We sighted it in just fine. Just before hunting season we took it out again and could not get decent groups. It would be perfect at 100 yds and then all over the place at 200. We got it dialed in at 200 and its all over the...

    Vortex Razor vs Viper Spotting Scope

    I have read the multiple other threads about spotting scopes and really am looking for some specific advice on spotting scopes. Basically, for lots of reasons that we do not need to get into, I have to decide between the Razor 11x33x50 and the Viper 15x45x65 or Viper 20x60x80. I know that the...

    eberlestock x2 vs. hornhunter mainbeam

    I am in the market for a new hunting pack. The bookbag I bought at Walmart just isn't cutting it anymore and after hauling out elk quarters by slinging the game bags over my shoulder for miles this season, I want to upgrade. I almost exclusively day hunt, so I am not looking for something to...

    The Tax Day Giveaway!

    The Mystery Ranch Marshal Pack sure would have been better than throwing the game bags over our shoulders for the more than a mile pack out on this bull (my first)!

    Gun slings

    I recently became aware of the differences between a "gun sling" and a "gun carry strap". I know I must have grown up under a rock. Anyways, no one in my family uses a sling to help steady the rifle while shooting. I am very intrigued in trying this to see if it will help with my accuracy...
