    Kifaru packs

    Kicking around getting a Kifaru pack and I'm looking at the Duplex Timberline. For those that have one how do you haul the meat out? Obviously you could place it directly in the bag. But, is there a way to carry it between the bag and frame (similar to Stone Glacier) so you can keep things...

    Swarovski spotting scope for digiscoping

    I have a Swarovski ATS 65 spotting scope that I was hoping to pair up with my Nikon D5100 camera. I can't seem to make heads or tails of Swarovski's digiscoping adapter. It appears to be a lens with an adapter that you have to buy and costs $600-650. Seems a bit steep. I'm hoping to find an...

    Wyoming Draw Odds

    In the spirit of the upwards $1.5 Billion Powerball that is making people I work with go crazy and day dream non-stop. I decided to do my version of day dreaming and was looking at the random draw odds for some of the Wyoming elk hunts that I will probably never get to go on since I am too far...

    2015 Missouri Archery Whitetail

    I finally got a deer down in Missouri. As some of you may remember I moved to Missouri this past June courtesy of a work promotion. Back to square 1 for hunting spots. After knocking on some doors and being turned away by most, I found a farmer that would let me hunt a 40 acre patch of...

    I'm hoping to upgrade my binoculars this off season and am considering getting a pair of rangefinding binoculars. For those that have used a pair what is your opinion? I'm considering all options right now. Ideally I want something that has angle compensation, will range close (10 yds or so)...

    Taxidermist reference

    I've been considering completing a European mount of an antelope myself, but with where I live I can just imagine how that is going to go when my neighbors look over. Anyone have a taxidermist or skull cleaning service they would recommend in the St Louis area?

    Pack for women or small frame

    I am trying to find a pack for my wife and not succeeding very well. I would like to keep the price under $300, not looking for a game hauler but maybe weights upto 60 lbs, 2000-4000 cubic inches of storage, and one that can hold a gun too would be nice. It seems most packs are made for mens...

    Fixed broadhead tuning

    I've always shot mechanical broadheads and over the past 8 years or so I have half-heartedly tried to get a fixed broadhead to work for me. This year I made it my goal to actually select a fixed broadhead. I haven't had any problems with the Rage mechanicals I shoot and part of me says why fix...
