Just got a new camera and Vortex Razor spotter, found this bull at 1253 yards. He was just sitting there watching us, I had a tag but there was no way to get closer to him with only a few minutes of daylight left. The picture looks like it is bright and in the middle of the day but it was...

I will be heading out this week for my elk hunt, had this tag a few times before and we always have fun and see some elk. I also have a wolf tag just in case I stumble across one. Has anyone been out in this are lately? How is the elk herd? I understand that it might not be as good as the...

I am in need of a good day pack, one that will carry a Vortex Razor 85mm spotter, a medium size tripod (24" folded, 3#), knife, flashlight, lunch, water, camera, etc. This will not be used for overnight trips and only used to pack meat out on the initial trip until I get my frame pack. I have...

I have the money saved up for a new spotting scope ($1500) and I am looking close at the Razor. My only concern is the size and weight of it, I will use it from my backpack about 1/2 the time. What kind of tripod do you guys use when backpacking? Do any of you guys use it for a backpacking...

I have an older Knight muzzleloader (50 cal) with the 209 conversion primer kit installed. I have been using 2-50g Pyrodex pellets with the 250g Knight Red Hot Sabots since I bought it years ago. I am out of the Red Hots and have never tried any other bullets. It shoots ok groups and have been...

I have been looking at purchasing a spotting scope and the Nikon Fieldscope III really grabs my attention. Does anyone out there have any experience with this model. I am looking at the 60mm unit. Is the ED version worth the extra $$. I do not plan on taking pictures with it right now but...

I was lucky enough to draw a NR Idaho Unit 51 Elk Tag for the late season hunt. Wondering if anyone out there has any knowledge or suggestions about this area. I am not really sure what to expect hunting this late in the year (other than cold temperatures and snow). Any info would be great...
