I have a food question…
I’ve heard a lot about Mountain House meals and how good they are but has anyone “Wise Company” meals.
If so how are they compared to Mountain House? What are the best flavors?
What do you take in with you ( food wise not gear) on an overnight or two night BIVY hunt?
3 months and 5 days before I head out to Colorado. I'm trying hike a couple miles every night lifting weights and working on cardio too. I'm down 22 pounds with about 15 more to go. Scouting secondary areas on GE and trying to get all the gear I need together. I'm taking my bow to the archery...
Please educate this flatlander on the wests winds
Here in the mid west you can pretty much count on the wind coming out of the west, it could be would southwest or northwest or even straight out of the west but usually west of some sort.
My question is. What is the prevailing wind in the...
Ok - I am currently shooting a drop away (trophy taker smackdown pro) and I am thinking of switching to a Whisper Biscut for heading out to Colorado for elk season. I love my Smackdown but there are lots of different moving parts that might fail. It just seems like it would wise to go with the...
There are only 218 days left before I leave on my first archery elk hunt to Colorado… The anticipation is killing me. How do you guys, and gals, cope with the count down to season? :o
I pulled the trigger last Saturday on a Badlands 2800 and it will be at the house when i get home from work today. The day is dragging already. I have a friend that says I'm worse than a kid at Christmas.
I just want to say thanks to all the people who have and still are helping me out on my first elk hunt. The knowledge you guy have about these amazing animals is just crazy!
Great site Corey and everyone else who participates
Thanks again from this rookie

We are looking at going to unit #33 in Colorado (if we can get drawn) archery hunt. Has anyone hunted this unit before and would you be willing to share some info with a flatlander from Michigan? Me and my dad are planning the trip and are hoping to get into elk. We aren’t really looking to...
So I was grocery shopping with the wife last night and I get a text from a buddy (bird dog) that says “I’m addicted to elk hunting”. That is fine, the problem is, both of us are planning our first elk hunt this year, we have never even been and we are already addicted.
I’m kind of nervous...
I'm looking at getting a new head lamp. What would you guys suggest? A good friend recommended that i get one that uses AA batteries so I dont have to carry different sizes in my pack. I figured I'd ask the experts....lol
I was looking at getting a small action cam that mounts on my bow to video hunts. I’m not really looking at breaking the bank either. Do you guy have much experiencewith them? If so which ones do you recommend?
I need help. I want to take my dad out west to experience an elk hunt before he isn’t able to go. The problem I have is, he has a bad knee. Don’t get me wrong he can walk good distances but just in more of a rolling terrain as opposed to a mountainous terrain. We don’t need to see 300+ bulls we...
I’m new here so don’t beat me up to bad if this has been discussed before.
I’m looking for a good medium sized pack that I could haul a day’s supply and meat out in the first trip.
