Could be. I’m not going to waste my time trying to find out though.

I started using unique email addresses for any website/service I sign up for. I have been surprised how few online shops actually sell my info to others. Except for Phone Skope. They sold my info to a company called Outdoor Edge. I am now getting emails sent to an email address that only Phone Skope had from Outdoor Edge. I don’t know how many of you care about this sort of behavior, but it bothers me and I will not be using their products anymore. How do you all feel about companies selling your info like this?

Too late for this. They’ve already shared my info and it’s impossible to undo it once the boat leaves. This is, however, exactly why I have unique emails for every service. I’m just deactivating the email. Can’t deactivate my physical address though

I am generally pretty cautious about that and fairly confident that did not happen here. It is possible that they have a check box that you have to uncheck buried somewhere on the order page. If it’s that hard to find though, it’s intentionally deceptive. That stuff shouldn’t be defaulted as opt-in if it’s for a 3rd party.

Good lookin birds! Thanks for posting.

Who did you end up going with?

Could use some tripod guidance here. Currently have a Slik CF-634 that I use for glassing. It has worked well enough for me for that purpose. What I’m struggling with is using the side of it while seated for longer distance (500yd) shooting when I cannot get prone. I’m eyeballing an Outdoorsman’s tall tripod (aluminum gen 2). Ideally I’d like to be able to use it for glassing and have a sturdier tripod to brace my rifle on to shoot seated. I’m not sure that I want to attach the rifle to the top of the tripod—having to take off the binos and put on a gun seems like a hassle. Or is it? I don’t want to carry two tripods either and enjoy glassing while standing. Thinking something a little more sturdy to shoot off the side of would be good enough. What are your all’s experience? Any good product recommendations?

Looking at buying a Savage Rascal this season. Would love some guidance on where to find the best deal on this. Currently just leaning BP/Cabelas

I had my first coues hunt this past week in Unit 22. I was ultimately unsuccessful in harvesting an animal, but I still consider the trip an overall success. I had a blast! Thinking about key takeaways, the following come to mind: I need to have better game plans for each morning. On one occasion, I missed the most active part of the morning because I couldn't get to where I wanted to be before 9:30a. I spent some valuable hours just in my car trying to drive to a location. I underestimated the other-hunter competition aspect. I'm not sure if all units are like this, but I was constantly bumping into other hunters. What ultimately sent me home was another hunter taking a 700-yd shot (and missing three times) on a buck that I'd located and been chasing over a couple days. At least in my experience, Unit 22 is a tough hunt. I didn't have a SXS so spent a lot of time walking. The deer seemed to be concentrated in one area and all the 'regulars' knew where that area was and took out a few bucks on the first morning. I took a few scouting trips, but I realized that I spent most of those trips in the same area. Next hunt, I need to scout more broadly so that when my Plan A falls apart, I have a decent Plan B. I think it'll also be important to find some bucks during those scouting trips. During the scouting trips I took, I was only able to find does. What do you all remember from your first hunt?

PM me. I tried sending you a message but I get an error saying that you cannot receive messages.

This sounds interesting. How do you envision an activity like this going?

I’d recommend using the Chirp software. I checked and your radio is compatible. There are a lot of YT videos out there on how to use it. https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home

Cody, you come help a new guy (me) find a buck in 22 right now and I’ll program your radios for you! Kidding (sort of). Like the above person said, make sure you get your license first. Google “how to get GMRS license” Once you have the license, use MyGMRS.com to find nearby repeaters. What kind of radio did you get?

Awesome video. What unit?

Oof that hurts lol.

Lightly used Bono X case with hydration pouch on the backside. Fits my 15x56 SLCs. $50 FTF in Phoenix

Thanks everyone for the advice!

Talk to me about game bags. Is there a big difference between brands? How many liters do I need for a coues buck? Was looking at getting the Kuiu Large Deer set. Overkill?

What’s the consensus on rifle bipods? I’m currently planning on shooting off my pack, which is how I’ve been practicing, but was wondering if the majority of you use something else.
