This. I just upgraded to the Swaros from the Kaibabs and there is a big difference. Well worth the extra cost if you can find some in the $1300-$1500 range.

I'm looking at getting a new rifle and finally upgrading to something of quality. I've narrowed it down to either of these three: Tikka T3 Weatherby Vanguard Series 2 Savage 11/111 Both the Tikka and the Weatherby have the sub moa guarantee. Do any of you guys have some input?

I came across a similar trail up North in 7. This area has no cattle & no illegals. My best guess was a deer/elk trail.

Congrats! Very exciting.

I just got some sitka gear and love it. Next is core4element which is good. But I also have some cabelas realtree that does the job.

Prayers going out to little Luke. I found the link for you: https://www.giveforward.com/fundraiser/4vr3/lovinglittleluke

That is AWESOME! I'll add that thing to my list of "must haves".

1 Mule deer, 1 javelina, countless quail and dove in 4 years of hunting. Looking to add a Turkey and Elk this year with any luck.

Those calls are beautiful! Good luck on the competition. I can't wait to get my call!

Mine is the 10x14'. No I didn't have it setup in 24b. I set it up in my backyard. ha.

I'd say 3 and still have plenty of room for gear and other stuff. It's really pretty big inside. You could fit 4 but it might get cramped. I got the slumberjack big cots so I can store my gear under the cot, they're great!

I set it up for the first time over the weekend and it is pretty simple. Basically you stake it down, put the 3 poles together and voila. I think the hardest part is setting up the front "porch". Ha.

I asked game and fish and they said you get the bonus point on your fifth year, not the sixth year. So yes, it will apply this draw.

Sold. Thanks everyone.

I have a pair of Swarovski 10x42 SLC WB Habicht (non-HD) with the upgraded winged eyecups I am looking to sell. They are in perfect condition (glass and armor). They have been meticulously cared for and come with original box, strap, and a swarovski bino harness. These are the version with SWARODUR, SWAROTOP and SWAROBRIGHT coatings. $1000 OBO

How much ventilation do you guys allow when you run your heaters in there? I've been thinking about the same setup with the big buddy and 5 gallon tank.

$1000 OBO. Somebody needs these.

Well I got off work early and decided to finally check out outdoorsmans and pickup a fancy tripod adapter and tripod head. I checked google and their website to find out they close at six. Great. Leave work at 3:30 and call to double check they're open. Yes open, great. I drive 30 minutes and get there at 4. I can't find an open door or anything, then some guy walks up and says were closed, sorry. Closed early today and we don't update the website with holiday hours. Thanks for wasting an hour of my time outdoorsmans. Looks like I'll get a uni dapter and bogen head. They're not getting my business.

Thanks Jay and Cody. I was just venting as I had a long drive over there and was frustrated by the situation. Looking back I guess I should have asked specifically for hours, I just assumed they were the same since they were open and no mention of them being different. I didn't by any means intend to sway anyone away from supporting outdoorsmans, I was just venting. Cody seems like a class act and I'll give him a call to clarify and clear the air.

I actually told the guy that I just need a tripod adapter, and asked if he could just let me grab one real quick and he said it would be too much work. Not a big deal, I was just frustrated and needed to vent. Again, I've heard nothing but good things about their service and products in the past. I guess I just got unlucky today.

Exactly. My timing was perfectly terrible.

Ya I've heard nothing but great things about them. I guess I just expected them to mention they were closing early when I called at 3:30 to see if they were open today. As a small business owner myself, I would at least mention it if someone calls 30 minutes before I plan on closing. Just disappointed I guess.

I ended up ordering it online. I paid $525 with free shipping. I figured I saved about $130 all together.

Ya that 9 degrees really snuck up on us. Woke up freezing to death and all water in camp was frozen. It was rough.

I was debating between the 12x9 cabin one and the 10x14. In the end, the size and ease of setup won over the awning. Do they stay pretty warm? Last year during the general javelina hunt it got down to about 9 degrees.
