    Smokers

    I like my Traeger. It’s all about the pellets.

    Saddle life expectancy

    I’m sure these saddle companies would love it if everyone replace their saddles every 5 years like recommended. Good steady cash flow keeps them in business. They only recommend that because the lawyers tell them to say it. As with anything use common sense. Inspect your gear and if anything...

    Rompola Buck Update

    Freak bucks do exist. Just saying. Hopefully the truth comes out sometime in the future. I really want the Rompola buck to be real. It would be a shame to never honor that buck if it is

    What's going on at AeroHunter?

    Thinking about a Merlin. How does it compare to the Kestrel as far as comfort? I was looking for a Size 2 Kestrel but thinking maybe a Size 2 Merlin will be a good option instead.

    Jokes and Memes - NO POLITICS

    Yup. Looks like a moose. Attention to detail was very poor on that one.:laughing:

    What's going on at AeroHunter?

    I snoozed on the bidding and was beat by $15.:angry: Never hunted in so basically brand new. Always wanted a Size 2 Kestrel. If anybody has one for sale please message me.

    Bummer. I love my Kestrel. By far my favorite saddle.

    Ebikes. Are they worth it?

    Same here. I added a Leeds kit to one of my Trek mountain bikes 4 years ago and been great for what I need. Think I paid around $700 for the kit. I’m amazed what some are paying for some of those high dollar dedicated to hunting e-bikes. Wasn’t too long ago you could buy a nice 4-wheeler for...

    Cold Weather Saddle Hunting

    I like my Pnuma heated vest. Using with a good base layer and wind barrier on the outside I’m amazed how well I stay warm in my saddle well below freezing. Once it gets to the teens I opt out of the saddle and use a stand instead to utilize the real cold weather gear. I own an IWOM and HBS but...

    Iowa Scouting Trip July/August 2022/Sept

    Any chance you can go back later? Mid-late November can be excellent for mature bucks searching far and wide for those last remaining does to breed. Seen some whoppers killed during that timeframe in Iowa. My last trip ended mid-November just as things were heating up. In hindsight I would focus...

    Iowa Scouting Trip July/August 2022/Sept

    I was hunting Iowa too in 2020 and that first week of November was brutal with temps. Really shut down daylight movement. Luckily I was there for 3 weeks so had better weather to work with outside that week. If that was my only week it would have been a major disappointment. I went 3 days...

    Dead Ash Trees

    Doesn’t take long. 2016 an area I was hunting in Iowa was primarily ash trees. Everything was lush and perfectly healthy. Went back in 2020 and it was immediately obvious the emerald ash borer hit the area extremely hard. Almost every single ash tree in a huge area was dead and the bark was...

    How are you getting deer in your truck when solo?

    This saved the day when I was on a solo hunt in Iowa and had to load a 220 lb dressed buck in my truck. That last 3 feet can be the hardest of the drag. Folds nice and flat and takes up very little space. Easy peasy. Disclaimer…If I shot little deer like in the video obviously I wouldn’t...
