    Bow tuning higher elevation?

    I think I heard the same podcast or read the same article from Randy Ulmer. I can shoot decent, but definitely not good enough to see much, if any difference (like Randy Ulmer). I still bring a target and check my zero at some distance with broadheads when I get to my base camp just like you...

    Bow tuning higher elevation?

    That's a good question. If you arnt shooting at very far distances, you shouldn't see much of a difference. I would bring a portable target with you tho and double check. I come from 600ft to 11000ft sometimes, and I havnt seen much difference at 50 yards.

    .380 Trail Protection / Bear Load?

    I am not the expert, but a 380 is fine then for any of that, except for bears. I think bear spray would be better for bears. I have shot hornady bullets for a lot of my self defense pistols.

    .380 Trail Protection / Bear Load?

    A 380 for bear protection? If you just have the two pistols I would stick with a 9mm and get a heavy hard cast bullet (not hollow point), but from what I understand a 10mm is about the minimum you will want.

    Wyoming General Elk Archery

    Thanks! Im excited to get out there and check it out. Do you know if there area lot of cattle grazing in that area in the summer/early fall? Im not that worried about it because it doesn't seem to affect elk but I was just wondering. Where we went in Colorado, there were always cattle and sheep.

    Go Hunt Initial Review

    I just decided to do the 30 day trial of Go Hunt to see what its all about. I could give a pretty elaborate review, but in short I don't think it is for me. I think if someone wanted to go on several hunts each year, and could afford it, it would be beneficial. That person would need to...
