Has anybody tried Stormkloth's jackets? They are a good price and seem pretty nice. I'll be glad for any feedback.

Has anybody used this? It sounds really good in his videos! It has a sweet sound that seems like it would call in tons of bulls! I'd like your input. Thanks!

Has anybody had success in 16D?I've hunted other parts of the Gila but not 16D. I'm thinking about trying to draw a tag down there for rifle and I was wondering if anybody had any reccomedations on where to go scouting in this unit. Thanks!!!

I've been trying to find a great sounding cow elk call and I was wondering if you guys had any really good recommendations. I've heard that the Imaka da Bully crazy call is really good and can make a wide variety of cow sounds. Is there a huge difference between the long range Imaka da bull...

I found this monsterous Coues Deer head in September while scouting for elk. He was six miles in the backcountry of the Gila Wilderness. Me and my buddy measured him up and he scores 108" SCI even with the missing brow tine. He makes it over the SCI gold minimum and we were very excited. If he...

Hey David, I agree, some of those rifle hunts can be insane! I usually hunt cows with my -30.06 and i use 180 grain bullets. I use core-lokts which are cheap and have plenty of knockdown power! I've been blessed to kill cow elk from 2008-2010 in NM in unit 21B which is typically known as a low...

Which sub unit within the Valles Caldera is the best for trophy bulls? My dad has hunted the Valles Caldera for cows a few years before but we've never tried for bulls. I know its kinda tricky to get drawn because of the lottery ticket system especially if you don't want to buy a huge amout of...

Here's my 2011 DIY Public Land bull. I shot him in New Mexico in 16B in the Gila Wilderness. He's a 5x6 and exceeded my expectaions for my first bull and especially since it was the fourth day of a five day hunt. He was the biggest bull we saw during the hunt. I sure love the Gila units in New...

Well to answer your question, I own the Savage Edge which is just the original name of the Savage Axis. The Savage Edge was just renamed the Savage Axis so it is the same gun were talking about. I love the price because you can get it with a scope for under $300. I have this gun in 30.06 and it...

Has anyone tried any of Point Blank's calls? I'm thinking about getting a new elk bugle and I'm interested in their new Persuader II elk bugle and their new cow call. Are they quality calls? Any feed back is great, Thanks!

I'm going rifle elk hunting with my .30-06 and I'm planning to use 220 grain Remington Core-Lokt bullets. Is this to heavy of a bullet for bull elk? I know the 180 grain bullets will do the trick and are better for longer shots but I think that 220 grains have better takedown power. Any advice...

I love the Badlands Superday: It has a ton of pockets, super durable, it is compatible with a camelbak, has plenty of space for gear 1950 cu. inches, its well thought out, and its very comfortable. Love this pack and its pretty affordable ($180). If your are a minimalist backpacker you can even...

I drew a 16B NM rifle bull elk tag, any suggestions on where to hunt? I live in NM and have hunted deer in 16 before. I've seen quite a few elk in the Gila and have heard that there are some monsters! This is a wilderness unit and I'm planning to pack in on horses. Any advice is good, thanks!
