    Pack Recommendation

    I’ve been using a Kuiu venture 1800 for the past year and a half. I’m pretty happy with the bag, and would give it a 8/10. The pack is big enough to hold saddle, ropes, knee pads etc in main compartment. Has some additional organizational capacity on front (lumbar strap, folding saw), top...

    How far would you realy shoot?

    My personal is 40yds. I’ve had a couple animals at 40 though, and haven’t been comfortable with the shot due to factors other then distance. I saw the reaction time question come up and found this article awhile ago, thought you guys might find it interesting...

    Am I the jerk?

    I would have thought the same thing!

    Am I the jerk?

    I wouldn’t say so. I’ve got public across the street from me, and usually beat the guys who drive into the woods. If I’m in a tree and someone is headed my way, I will usually flash my headlamp at them so hopefully we can all spread out. I wouldn’t expect someone to pick up on a whistle, and I...

    Alpaca Socks

    I have “alpaca of montana” socks and sizing is pretty true if not a hair snug. They’re durable like wool. I don’t wash mine that frequently (ozone instead) and they’re doing fine. My get get cold so I’ve tried everything I would say these are best, followed by the “my heater” socks.

    I don’t hunt around Ann Arbor much. Closest hunting I do around here is Jackson county and Waterloo rev area. I have property in Montcalm where I do most of mine. What about you?

    Perch Private Land Presets

    This is kind of what I do. I’ll preset a few trees with wild edge steps and a ROS/stepp ring. Then when I leave I’ll remove steps below 10-11ft. I can come in and set two sticks, and be up sitting/hanging without breaking a sweat climbing and hanging steps. I just found out about the primal...

    What gun do you hunt with?

    Historically you’d find me with a savage 110 30-06 with a Nikon monarch 2-8x. While I love this rifle, today you’d likely find me with a tikka t3x in 308. Topped with a Leica Er 2.5-10x. The savage is probably a little better shooter, but the tikka is better balanced, cleans up a lot easier...

    XOP Platform kits?

    Are these kits still available? I looked on the XOP website and didn't see the seat for sale. Did they stop selling the replacement seats?
