I bought one to put sand in for training and it is pretty comfortable.
I put about 40 pounds in it and haven't had any problems.

I have the a 6.5 x 284 and put a Nightforce 5.5-22 x 50 and am very happy with it. Nightforce makes a great product and the dials are very easy to read and turn. Super clear optics and tough as...

I found 5 Blacktail sheds this year within 100 feet of each other. Hit the jackpot 3 three point with eye guards and two forks. Only one right side, four left sides. Weird.

My brother loves to cook them. We never seem to find the time to hunt them more than once a year. Tasty.

I'll be at the Sacramento show and keep an eye out for you Guy. Awesome you chimed in for MTMuley. I enjoy all your products. TV shows, great magazines, helpful and entertaining movies, and great...

Boy did I start a bunch of fun.
I would agree that in the vast majority of situations camo face paint is not necessary.
I see no purpose for it in rifle hunting, bow hunting in a tree stand could...

Check out the Vortex tripods. I have the high country model and its always in my pack. Pretty light and stable, not very expensive either.

Definitely use some kind of merino wool base layer. I have the Kuiu stuff and it works great. The big thing is layers. I still have my big outfitter coat from Cabelas but don't seem to use it much...

You are correct about movement and scent spooking game but if you have a mask or face paint on they don't run. They stand and look holes through you and after a few minutes go back to feeding. So if...

I've been hunting for 35 years and bow hunting for 20 something.
I have also not believed in face paint. I didn't think it helped but had never tried it. If you're sitting in a tree stand I doubt...

Getting close is good, getting too close too soon is disaster. If the big guy doesn't get up one of his buddies will and there you are with no shot and a deer looking at you from close range. Same...

I was hunting late season Blacktail in California. They are horribly spooky and if I had the paint on I could sneak up within bow range. The first few days I didn't use it and was busted twice by two...

I agree with NV Archer but have never had an angled scope.
Check all the various hunting forums, they all have classified sections. Longrangehunter.com, rokslide.com and many others. My binos came...

You have plenty of time before you will need the spotter before your hunt so start checking on the used equipment.
I bought a used Swarovski 10x42 ED pair and saved over half compared to new. ...

What do you guys use?
I tried the the Hunter Specialties cream face paint and it gets everywhere. Especially if you sweat. Ends up all over clothes and all your gear. Looking for something that...

Doesn't have much to do with the camera, it's the batteries that fail at low temps.
Normal low temps like 30 or so doesn't screw things up too bad but the colder it gets the worse they are. At 0...

Our state makes such stupid choices. No wonder so many working people are leaving the state..

Be veeewery veeewery quiet. ;)

I don't drop anything anymore.
I tried no shoes last year sneaking up on a blacktail, not my best idea. Probably works pretty well in flat country but if you keep the wind right and camo up good....

I have one of the packs and it is amazingly comfortable. Tons of room. I put a bag of sand in it that weighs 50 pounds and use it for training.
I haven't packed in anywhere with it but I walk three...

I was on a late season archery hunt and the weather was horrible so I had to take the ATV. I don't usually use it when hunting for transportation and was not happy with just strapping the bow to to...

I hunt Colorado a couple years ago and used some polypro. Holly crap did I stink. None of that oh you smell a little bad but that full blown smells like something died smell after two days of hiking....

Check out the Cabelas Euro vision. I have had a pair for many years and finally decided a year ago to upgrade to some Swarovsky 10x42 EL.
Not the best choice I have ever made. The only difference I...

That is a great picture.
Good you can get her involved early. She is really concentrating.

I have shot several whitetail with a 300 win mag in the lungs at close range, less than 100 yards, none have been excited before the shot and none have dropped. Shot a 72 lb blacktail with the same...
