    Backpacking is an amazing way to hunt. Just use common sense. Many seasoned hunters have found themselves turned around at one point or another. Water=Life Even some animals die of dehydration as you well know...don't push your limits until you are completely familiar with the terrain.

    If you want to hike miles and miles away from civilization then have enough water to do so. Don't depend on rain and stay sheltered out of bad weather.

     

    You can do a lot with a good pack, solid boots, a compass and your basic camping gear. Always have a small survival pack. I'd even suggested hiking and camping out where you intend to hunt so you familiarize yourself with the terrain and know what to expect. Have fun and enjoy your hunt.

    I am selling a mombasa Roof top tent. This is an amazing tent that can either go on any vehicle with luggage racks or an off road trailer! It is great for a quick over night camp out or a full elk camp. This text is 5' 10" x 7' - very spacious. This tent is also extremely clean- even the white canvas is still 'bright white!' No pets, smokers have ever been inside. I even had a custom cover built for it which is made of marine material- lifetime guarantee! These things are awesome- if your vehicle goes off road you have a tent ready to sleep in no matter where you are! Sorry the pics are sideways... My iPhone wont work for me haha

     

    These tents can go for 1k or more. I am asking $600 or best offer. Pm text or call 4806281720

    Wild view trail cams can be bought on eBay for $35... This way I can get a bunch out there, and not worry about getting them stolen. Coverts are nice nice too, but it will make you cry when you find it stolen.

     

    But with the price of gas now, I am leaning towards the Buckeye system. Very reliable, works on Verizon, and sends me pics within minutes of the activation. The batteries last form 7-8 months... So all I do now is sit back and watch the show. Cheaper in the long run, when you figure in batteries, gas, and my time...

     

    Not to hijack the thread but how much did those buckeyes run you? I like the sound of that and have Verizon

    Everyone has their preference just like a rifle. I hunt on a budget every year and really like the primos line of cameras. Some people rolls their eyes when they see "primos" but i have been impressed with their cams. Durable, great pic resolution, not too expensive and I like the sensor radius. I bought my first one in 09' and still have the same one out today. I have since bought 3 others. I am sure there are better models but have yet to have an issue with any of them. Even had a bear pop a hole on the lens protector and it was still taking good pics. With these you are looking at $80-$200 depending on how fancy you want to get. Pm me if you want to see some examples of the pics. Good luck to you.

    Cole, great video, that is what sold me. Then when I shot my 250 pound bear last year with my shwacker, it penetrated thru both sides of the rib cage, and the broad head is still in good condition. The bear left a huge blood trail, and any of you bear hunters know, that is unusual. The bear went 200 yds and died in a mine shaft.

     

    I don't think there is anything "usual" about that story. haha. Sounds like a heck of a hunt....wish I could claim I had killed a bear with a bow! I got a pack of virgin Swhackers. I am hopeing to have blood on them this fall. Having seen the damage they do I will only shoot swhackers.
