    Compounds and feathers?

    How many wheel bow shooters are still shooting feather fletching? Feathers are a lot lighter on the back end and are suppose to stabilize better. Seems to be good and bad for both feathers and vanes.

    Down bags and bears?

    I was messing with my gear today and I laid my down bag on the floor to put it in the stuff bag. My dog started smelling the bag with great interest. I now wonder if a goose down bag would attract a bear or other critters that a synthetic bag wouldn't. If I bivy hunt and leave camp all day, it...

    What elevation are they?

    After some elk photos were posted I was wondering at what elevation they were seen, which they were still in velvet. Most everything I read and hear is that elk are high early in the season to beat the heat and bugs. Rain fall and food sources can and will change what is normal.  For those of...

    Scouting on Google

    Carrying arrows?

    I really hate having my arrows on my bow, but it is the best way to carry them. Anyone carry a quiver of some sort that is not attched to their bow? What kind and how do you carry it?  I will be carrying a day pack or perhaps a large pack for a bivy trip.
