How much did that Yeti/goat package weigh?

Great job!! Nice bucks! Wyoming is on my bucket list in the near future. I have bought 3 points now.

Nice bull!! Those fronts are tremendous!

I shot my bull this year at 35 yards, broadside, passthrough, just above/behind the knee, exited behind the shoulder. No blood after 150 yards. Found him dead 1/2 mile away, after 15 hours of searching. Entrance shot Exit

Happy birthday!!

I just went through this. I lost a Midland radio on my elk hunt. After research, I decided I wanted the Midland 1050...the only model with whisper mode. Seemed like it might be handy for hunting. I think that's the only difference between the 1050/1000 and the T75. It seems no retail store carries them so I ordered through Amazon for $70. Got them in a few days. https://www.amazon.com/Midland-GXT1050VP4-Channel-Two-Way-Waterproof/dp/B001WM73P0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1539663628&sr=8-2&keywords=midland+gxt1050

Got the Green Mountain from Sportsmans. Love it! Got the Daniel Boone model on sale for $500. Haven't used propane in a long time. Great smoked meat, great for steakes, great for pizzas.

Great job! Nice bull! Well done video! It's quite an accomplishment getting an elk with a bow, let alone getting it on a quality video.

Check camofire. They have baselayers quite often. Black Ovis has their brand also. I bought Core 4 Element off camofire a few years ago but haven't seen it anymore.

How many miles? Where is it located?

^^ I hope so. I was there last weekend. One week can make a difference.

It's been quiet and HOT in 4B...with an occasional bugle. The forecast is for clouds, chance of rain, and cooler middle of next week, which should get it going. The fall equinox/estrus is the 22nd, but also a full moon. Hopefully there will be enough cloud cover to squelch the full moon affect. At any rate, we will have a blast in the elk woods.

They'll be back. Usually on Tuesdays (Trailcam Tuesday)

Sounds like you have a handle on what is required. I prefer 12x50's and carry them on my chest. I have a Zeiss 15 - 45 x 65 spotter that is packable and a Vortex 27 - 60 x 85 that does well, but stays near the truck. Buy the best glass you can afford. Ross Outdoors in Phoenix rents glass. Might be an option.

I have a 4b bull tag. I won't be hunting until my brother gets here from Indiana on Sunday. First time missing opening day....it's killing me. Last weekend I was practicing my calling from the campfire and had two bulls bugling. It's gonna be a warm one.

That's a great idea! I actually have something similar, with a small Zodi system. The D-battery pump that comes with it is barely adequate, so I bought a RV pump and connect it to a Marine battery. It works pretty good but kind of a pain to setup. I'll take it along on the hunt. Options are good. It might be nice to get a real shower, then "go to town" 😁

I have a solar shower but it would be nice to get a real shower after 5 days or so of hunting, especially with the forcasted warmer temps. Is there an establishment with public showers near Forrest Lakes or Heber?

Good deals! I bought one last go around.

Wow! That's a shocker! Life is fragile. Prayers to the family, friends, and his company staff.

I have this same jacket, size, camo...love it...great jacket!

I am going through this now. Sounds like a verifier will work for you, which is a "reading glass" in the peep. A clarifier is similar but is used with a magnified site. If you see distance ok then you just need a little correction to see the pins better. I just had one installed at Timber Mesa. I think I chose too much magnification and need to go back and try another. Here is a video describing it.

So, my eyes don't focus so well up close anymore, which causes my pins to be a bit fuzzy. I really don't like wearing glasses while hunting. I have a verifier peep sight on order through the local archery shop to help focus my pins. Anyone use this? Opinions? Alternatives?

Yeah, I do shoot with both eyes open and that helps...I can get by. Just trying to make improvements. I also have astigmatism in that eye, so I don't know if the verifier will help. It's a $60 experiment 😣

No. I have some scar tissue in my right eye from RK procedure 20 years ago. It feels like I have a spec of dirt under the contact.
