    How Die Hard Of A Hunter are you??

    I’m a solid 8. I hunt every season every species. Every weapon. Long weekends to 10 day trips from wall tent to camped off the back of a ranger at the end of a two track to 5 day backpack hunts. Typically about 50 days a year hunt. Not including range days scouting bird hunting or even fishing.

    Kachina Peaks Cow Elk Hunt

    Sure is. I did not see that before. The structure of these hunts have changed a little this year but your hunt is typical of the hunts we’ve down in here in the past. I could show you on a map where we see cows year after year during theses hunts. Where are you located?

    Min draw weight for elk

    Why don’t you just let us know what you saw in the field that offended you enough to take to your interweb soap box.

    And a new pump and regulator never hurt a first gen ranger. You can replace the pump separately from whole tank assembly.

    Polaris Mechanics

    If you google around those 700s had issues with the wire breaking inside the shielding near the tps. Also there are diag codes but you have to google how to retrieve them
  8. I heard talk a few years ago that the law might be changed to allow the retention of bonus points when a tag is donated. Any one know if this is the case?

    Freeze drying velvet

    Kachina Peaks Cow Elk Hunt

    I’ve been on the peaks hunts several times. I don’t know what hunt you have but I don’t think you can be too high or too steep. The last cow we killed was at 10150. We had to tie her legs to a tree so she would not slide down while we quartered her. The peaks are not like any other area in the state. Some of the elk rules don’t apply. As the season come and go the elk will continue to get pushed higher and higher.

    Swaro 12x50 or 15x56HD?

    With no slants or bias. If it’s better it’s better regardless of the logo. They are some hair splitting sob’s though.

    Swaro 12x50 or 15x56HD?

    I don’t have a closed mind. I used the best Leica has to offer for a year. Bergers are crap. But to be fair this is a thread talking about 12x50 el vs 15x56hd becaue they both are in a class of their own.

    Swaro 12x50 or 15x56HD?

    I had the 15x56 slc then geovid 15x56 then. The 12x50 el. The liecas are good but they are not In The same league. The only optics reviews I value are from Birding forums. Those guys are nutty about optics and have zero bias. I just remembered your the the guy who argues with every one about every thing. If I would have remembered I would not have even addressed your comment.

    Swaro 12x50 or 15x56HD?

    Most unbiased optic reviews disagree.

    Favorite boots

    I like a tall stiff boot. I have weak ankles but I hike far with heavy loads, So for me it’s kenetreks mt extremes and mt guild insulated. But every ones foot is there really are no back boat makers Any more, just a mismatch of boot type vs foot type.

    Swarovski EL 12x50

    I hand hold mine just fine. And your right on a backpack hunting, one optic is the way to go.

    Freeze drying velvet

    I’ve had a few freeze dried. I think it’s a diferant process. I don’t think just being in the freezer will do it. My taxidermist ships the antlers out to be done.
