I used the spindrift jacket and guide jacket in Alaska this past spring. They were warm and withstood the cool breeze on a snowy bear hunt. When it rained, however, I found the guide jacket WAS NOT water proof. The raid beaded up and ran off at first, and then it soaked it up like a sponge...

Correction...Doyle Moss and clients (as well as public hunters) have access by horseback or foot.

I too have a Sendero 7mm but it is the ultra mag. I have a Barnes MuzzleBreak and love it. The recoil seems less than my 243. I always wear ear protection when just shooting. When pulling the trigger on a deer or elk, I don't and maybe it's the adrenaline but I don't notice the noise. By the...

Hi Wade, Last March you said you were going to test the Kifaru Slick bag. I have been wondering what the verdict is? MS

I have only used bog-pod (and I'll be buying another set since they were stolen out of the truck while I was elk hunting last fall). I really needed them while doing long hours of glassing on an Alaska hunt. It was best if I could stand while glassing and I could use the tripod-bog pod to...

I purchased the camo bog pod tripod sticks and have been very happy with them. They were great to use for long hours of glassing last spring on a bear hunt in Alaska. This fall while hunting elk here in Utah, I left them in the back of the truck while riding a mule all day. At the end of the...

I'm pretty sure the answer is yes. IF the two are successful in drawing the LE tag, the dedicated sportsman would need to surrender that year's tag and if he harvests a deer, it would count as one of the two allowed in three years. I drew a Pauns. tag a few years ago and still paid the price...

Rifle deer, elk, and once in a lifetime tags: $150. Add a couple of days entry fees, plus assorted new gear... I look forward to this every year.

There are Division of Wildlife personel stationed at the EXPO to sell licenses. Or you can buy them online anytime.

Thanks Gentlemen. It sounds like there are passionate Snipe Pod and Bog Gear owners. Those will be the two I'll likely choose between. I have read about both on their web sites and they both have some great features. Thanks for all your ideas. MS

I have a Leupold VX-3l 4.5 x 14 and a Zeiss Conquest 4.5 X 14. I really like them both. I am more comfortable with the Zeiss however and give it the edge over the Leupold. I bought the Zeiss 8 years ago and the Leupold about 3 years ago. I got pretty good deals online and I don't know if you...

Hi Fishfearme, I too have maximum elk points (17). I have been applying for Pahvant too. According to the latest odds book, you and I could draw ANY hunt in Utah except the Early Pahvant. There we would have a 30-40% chance depending on where other Maximum point holders apply. My top...

I just looked through this year's Utah Odds book. You would have drawn out or had a good chance on these units last year: Cache North with 4 pts. Cache South 6 pts. South Slope Diamond 6 pts. Book Cliffs Roadless 8 pts. LaSal 5 pt. Manti 8pts. Nebo 7...

I have never had the need for shooting sticks until a hunt last fall. I was in heavy grass/small brush hunting moose in Alaska. There was nothing to get a good rest on and I ended up making the standing 125 yard shot at the bull as he broke out from some alders. Later, my partner used some...

Whoa... Awesome. Can you share any details?
