    Input on new backpack multi day

    I have a Mystery Ranch Pintler. (It's the non-hunting version so not technically the Pintler) and I LOVE it. It is extremely comfortable, has a comfortable and light frame. However it is a little on the small size. It is PERFECT for hunting, however turns a little small when an animal is on the ground.

    Non-designer Merino Wool base layer

    What does everyone use that doesn't have the fancy name tag attached to it? For years, I had a First Lite shirt and it was absolutely wonderful. By far the best base layer I have had. Dried out and didn't stink after the hike in was the best attribute. Being as I am the non-athletic build, and the price, the designer brands are not what I go for anymore. I just ordered a couple of these to try out. https://www.mountainwarehouse.com/us/merino-mens-long-sleeved-round-neck-top-p13069.aspx/Black/?utm_source=google_shopping&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=SMART+SHOPPING+-+SHOPPING+US&utm_term=&utm_content=|pcrid|390932670121|pkw||pmt||pdv|c|slid||product|023200005004|&gclid=CjwKCAjwt7SWBhAnEiwAx8ZLavaJ7kgkOdLqUXgBwxcWhhj9_4L4JPeeivu5hsur0Y2wjMUrbx4mWxoClUMQAvD_BwE

    2022 buck

    As pointed out, the reports have been a little slow, so I decided to take a break from school work and type up a short report. Tried a new unit with my hunting partner, it was awesome. His old stomping grounds that he has killed some great deer from. We were not over run with giant bucks, but had a great time and I managed to fill my tag on a cool buck on Tuesday the 25th. We hiked into an area and were sitting there glassing. I got a little chilly so I stood up and put on my light jacket. When I did that, I had two does staring at me at about 150 yards. Went back to glassing. About 30 minutes later, I pull my eyes away from my binos and see two bucks at about the same spot. "Shooter buck!" I say to Jim, as I stuff an ear plug in my ear and grab the 28. The buck is only 138 yards away and sees me moving, but there is a bush in front of me where I cant use my bipod, so I hold the rifle freehand and let it rip. I see him turn after the shot and take a few steps so I let another rip. I only had two down in the gun so pull a 3rd from the saddle bag and drill him. It happened fast so I wasn't 100% sure of the shots, but saw a bush shaking for a few seconds after the last shot so I was confident he was down. While reviewing what happened, I saw a cactus that appeared to be red and glistening. Sure enough, covered in blood. When we got to the blood, it looked like someone poured a 5 gallon bucket. Somehow, this buck took the 180 Hybrid from my 28 through both shoulders with a massive hole in his chest and made it 30-40 yards before going down.
