Hey everyone, I'm trying to find a hunt for dad to go on this year or for 2017 somewhere. I've been trying to get him to leave his comfort zone for a while, but haven't had much luck. He is a muzzy and rifle hunter only which limits his hunting a little, but he works in agriculture, like me...

Are these a gimmick or would they really help? It seems like it may help increase heart rate and cardio if anything, but not sold on the idea.

I'm selling my HornHunter Mainbeam pack that I have been using for the last 4 years or so. It is a great pack, but I just purchased a new external frame pack that I will be using and don't need this one anymore. The pack is in great shape, but does have a few blood stains on it (pictured)...

I know there are a lot of members out there that have a lot of experience in the backcountry and I'm hoping to feed and learn off of that. I have never done a backpack hunt, but am gearing up to do one as soon as I can. I've been scouring the forum and internet and believe I have a pretty good...

I'm going to be in the market for a new spotter soon and am wondering if anyone has any feedback on leupold vs vortex spotters. I'm looking at either the vortex razor hd in the 16-48x65 or the smaller 11-33x50 vs the leupold gold ring spotters of basically the same size. The leupold spotters...

Just got a flyer in the mail that KUIU is having a 30% off sale on everything in stock with free shipping over $300. There are some catches to it, but pretty straight forward sale by the looks of it. Sale is Nov. 19-22 if you are interested.

Well, I was able to punch my tag this year on another good WT in Kansas on public land, but this time it was done spot and stalk in western Kansas. I had never hunted the area I was in before and was mainly doing scouting for rifle season for next year. I found a decent spot with minimal roads...

I'm looking into getting a portable press for my bow. I'm tired of driving to the range to have them press it everytime and want something I can use in a pinch while hunting if needed. My biggest pet peeve is taking it an hour away for tuning when I could do it myself. Biggest things are price...

What are some decently priced pants I could use for hunting? I'm looking for a tan or brown color that are medium weight that I can wear from early September into October and November with good layering. Don't really want cotton (water), but also don't want the super thin pants made for hot...

Any idea when some new items will be getting in stock? Looks like the sizes I need are all back ordered in every color. I have a coupon that only applies to instock items and don't want to waste it on one item that is actually in stock in my size... I don't especially want to pay shipping...

Ok, so I'm fairly new to the whole points race and out of state hunting game. I have been doing tons of research on draw odds, points needed to draw, success rates, etc. etc. etc. All of you know what I'm talking about. One thing that always sneaks into my mind as I'm pouring over excel files...

Does anyone have any info on Unit 6A and 6C... maybe 5b, 51, or 52? I'm looking to put in again for NM this year and just wondering how the populations are doing and how the early season is in these areas for rut action. I hunted unit 2 last year and would be willing to trade some info on that...

Here is one I know we will have a lot of differing opinions on... What camo pattern do you prefer when bow hunting out west. It doesn't matter if it is in the thick timber, grass plains, or sage flats I want to hear what everyone uses. Currently I have a mix of mossy oak brush that I use most...

Anyone have any info on hunting NE for muleys this year? I shot my one buck here in Kansas and am looking for a place fairly close to go and hunt as soon as I finish up with harvest. Right now, I'm looking at the Scotts Bluff area since it has the most public hunting that looks like it might...

Well, I'm officially done hunting bucks in Kansas. We are a one buck state and I was fortunate enough to arrow this guy at 18 yards on the second evening I sat in the stand. This is my 4th archery deer and my first from a treestand. He ran about 70 yards before piling up. Grizz trick did an...

Well, the 2014 elk season for me is in the books. We hunted the first season (Sept. 1-15) for our first ever elk hunt... and we were dumb enough to try it with a bow! My buddy and I hunted up in the NW part of NM for elk with my uncle and some of his buddies. We figured we would need all the...

How big of a cooler should I expect to fill (if I first fill my tag) with a bull elk? I'm heading out this year for the first time and I'm not sure how much cooler room I'll need. Definitely don't want to run out! Any idea how much I would need for quartered vs boned vs processes meat?

Anyone have any info on how grizz tricks work on elk? I have heard from some people that they are too big and don't get the penetration needed for the bigger game and are really made for deer and antelope? Anyone shoot elk or moose or something big with the grizz tricks? I'm trying to figure out...

Ok, so we all know wind will push an arrow, but how does an arrow perform in humid conditions vs. dry? How about low altitudes vs. high altitudes? Any other weather changes that change arrow flight? Hot to cold? I'm thinking low altitudes or high humidity will have "thicker" air and push the...

Alright, I need some suggestions on workout routines that will last around 30 minutes. I don't have much more time than that with my job being in agriculture, a 10 month old baby, and working on my M.S. in Agronomy. I live in flatland Kansas, so don't have hills to climb or anything like that...
