For anyone who has used or owns the EL range, I have read that the yardage button is on the left hand side of the binoculars. For the right handed bowhunters (left hand holding the bow) are you able to engage the button with your right hand while holding the binoculars in only your right hand...

I received my Sitka Gear shipment today and when trying on...the Jetstream Jacket in large is snugger fitting in the body and arms than the 90%...I thought this was rather strange. I am wondering if anybody has noticed this with theirs and if they would recommend ordering a size bigger in the...

I am looking at some binoculars for hunting. They will be used for glassing far ridges out west for deer/elk/sheep and also in the midwest whitetail hunting in the woods/fields. specifically, I really like the Nikon EDG 10x32 and have been comparing to the Vortex Razor 10x42, Atlas Intrepid Ed...

I am planning a hunting trip to the high country of colorado this fall. My trip will consist of cooking at 10,000 feet with a optimus nova plus stove using white gas. What size fuel bottle should I buy? 1 L, .6L or .4L? 5 nights & 5 morning cookouts (boiling water) What are your...

Trying to plan out clothing for a hunt this fall and would appreciate some experience/knowledge. Late August/Early September; 11,000' in the highcountry of central Colorado? A. What can I expect in regards to average temperature Day and Night? B. What extreme's (highs and lows) could I...

LAST EDITED ON Jun-16-10 AT 09:56PM (MST)[p]What is a good distance to use 10x binoculars for preliminary glassing and then be able to really scope them out once found? Is it preferable to hunt/glass from across a canyon or get up on the mountain ridge above them and glass down potentially...

I am scouting an area in CO using Google Earth. I have found a ridge that overlooks a huge valley and can see numerous high basins that are 3 to 4 miles away. Will I be able to see Deer from this vantage point with: A. 10x42 binoculars B. 15x50 binoculars C. 20 power spotting scope D. 60...

Excellent. Thanks for the thoughts. I like the flexibility of the Wolf Alpha sytem. It is the Wolf Alpha pack and the Wolf Pup removable Sleeping System Department that can go on the bottom of the pack if you need the storage. THis way it can be a 3 day pack to a 10 day hunt pack. I still...

Anybody have any input on size of a pack needed for a 5 day highcountry early season Muley hunt? Will 4200 be enough or do I need more. Specifically looking at the Mystery Ranch Wolf Alpha (4200 ci) and the Mystery Ranch Nice 6500 (6500 ci). I can't seem to find any material stating a general...

Can someone please post a picture of the ram? The link does not work for me and I can't seem to find pictures anywhere. Thank you!

time of year will be archery season. Most likely last week in August or Early September. That mountain side faces East and maybe a bit south east facing. There are no roads whatsoever withing 6 miles of this basin.

I have some questions on sights. Specifically, I am contemplating a fixed multi pin sight vs. an adjustable one pin. Further, I am looking at the Surloc Sportsmans Special, Spot Hogg Tommy Hogg and the spot hogg fixed multi pins. I will be using it for Hunting whitetails here in the midwest...

Thanks for all the thoughts. I really appreciate it. Does anybody have any pictures of classic timberline mule deer country?

For those who have hunted Muleys in the high country...I am wondering if this far mountainside looks promising that it will hold Muleys. Plenty of water in the area, it is a south east facing slope. The valley is at 9500' and the mid part of the mountain where the Pines start (middle of the...

Been scouting some highcountry using google earth tryign to narrow down some areas int he vast wilderness that I will be scouting this spring/summer for a fall archery mule deer hunt. My question is what side of the mountain/ridge/basin do bachelor groups of mule deer prefer to spend their days...

Can anyone tell me why the videos dont work for me? It just says, cannot view private videos when I click them. It let me watch 1 ans 2 a while back...? thanks

Not fake. you can "watch him grow" by pictures at www.farmingforwildlife.com and click on "watch him grow" in the upper left of the page. Pretty neat, I have been keeping tabs to see if he gets much bigger. You can also see how he progressed last year. Absolutely insane...

2001 I would guess.

I am interested in selling my bow in a garage sale this spring. Any idea of how to come to an asking price? Would I be better off selling it on ebay or in the newspaper? Darton Titan XT 28.5" 60-70 lb bow, Schafer Aarchery rest, Archers Choice Fiber Optic Sight, 8" Stabilizer, 6-12 easton...

I would imagine that all game animals are adaptive. meaning that once you shoot an animal witha dart gun, they will know not to make that mistake again. Geneticaly, the animals would get smarter and smarter and adapt to huntersover time... Just a thought.

In reading Cameron Hanes & David Longs books they do not provide too much information regarding how big of area to target for a solo bivy style hunter that is 5-10 miles back in the wilderness. Also, where are some general things to look for to find high country mule deer? A guy can get a great...

Dont shoot either bow manufacturer now or in the past... Sounds like this is just a Mathews owners vs. PSE owners debate! Or who copied who if any. They look alike. All bow look alike for that matter. Two cams, two limbs sometimes split sometimes solid, a riser, grip with strings! Overal...

2008 West River. Hunting just north of the hills. A LOT of walking as the fourwheelers were useless in the snow. Should have brought the snowmobiles instead!

I would keep an eye on that middle screw however if you decide to only finger tighten it. I have had action screws back out on me and cause quite a bit of accuracy headaches before I found that the screw had lossened. These were torqued on, not finger tightened... Otherwise Chad, there are so...

180 grain Accubond out of my 300 weatherby mag. 82.5 grains of H4831 coming out around 3250 fps. I have killed 8 deer in the past 3 years. (3 bucks and 5 does) with excellent results. Only one deer went more than 20 yards (perfect heart shot). Otherwise, this year I took three does shot...

"what Im gettin at is actual feel of the caliber and what you have experienced on the performance side." What "you feel" when you shoot the rifle isn't what the animal feels...or doesnt feel for that matter. "Performance" is in the numbers. Ballistics, powder capacity, bullet diameter and...

A more scientific answer... There are a lot of accuracy buffs that discuss barrel harmonics. Basically, when you shoot your barrel creates a harmonic wave as the bullet is heading down the rifling, leaving the barrel and immediately after. The best accuracy comes at a perfect combination of...

bigger spark to light all of the powder. I would recommend backing down a bit rather than starting right at max. I would not recommend it but some do not see a difference. I guess it all depends on who you ask!

If you're hunting elk (or anything bigger, especially at distance) I would put the 300 WSM on top. For deer size game and also elk, I love the 270 WSM. The 300 just has more flexibility in regards to bullets you can load depending on the game you are after on your particular hunt. I would...

Yes, November 8-12th. Killed this buck this year.

Awesome pics! There is just something I love about hunting in the snow!!

My initial post must have been kicked as I had a link to another forum with pictures and details regarding the new 2009 bowtechs. (Forum Moderators, please let me know if this is the case so that I know for next time) Thanks Admiral 7" Brace Height 40,50,60,70 lb 24-30 Draw 31 1/16" ATA 320...

For you westerners, this buck Hails from Buffalo county, WI. This county is THE #1 top producing county for B&C record book whitetails. What an incredible animal.

Incredible... http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid1772823651?bclid=1768641456&bctid=1770023263

I toured the factory in Rapid City, SD. I was absolutely impressed with their quality control, facility and their rifles in general. If anyone gets out that way, take a tour. They'll take you through the steps of building a rifle fromr raw metal and other materials. Very cool! I wish I woul...
