Re: NM unit 2b

I live in NM and hunted this unit two years ago.. Lots of deer, although many bucks are young. Pray for some snow, it tends to drive the bigger mulies down from Colorado... I hunted near Navajo Lake.. There are many nice deer out there and some truly outstanding trophy quality deer.. Just have to ge...

Eberlestock J34 vs. J107 Help me choose!!!

Hi all, just wanted to see what you hunters like about these two backpacks and curious what you use on your backcountry hunts... I need this for a meat hauler, and to help me setup my muley camp this November and for my elk hunt in October... Really like the options on these packs and have seen them...

Tripods from S&S Archery?

Anyone use these carbon fiber tripods?? I must say that they look really nice and I really like the Slik 634pro on their website... Weighs in at just over 2 lbs... Once you install the pan head it would add another 1lb give or take (the one I am looking at is only 11 ounces!!)... For 3 lbs, carbon f...

11/12/2011-11/16/2011 Unit 34 NM muley hunt

I have an elk and muley tag this year and both are the first time for this Texan who is used to hunting for whitetail but now live in NM.. I assume that they will be in the early stages of their rut so they will be lower.... That is my question, do you hunt lower for them or can you find some huge b...

Re: Spotting scope advice

Update, ended up getting a Vortex Nomad for packability for 250.00 brand new.. Got a great deal from an employee at an outdoor store where I work that got these for free by using a point system to buy gear they like through their employer... Not the best in optics but for packability and the warrant...

Re: Bino Harness/ Pouch?

I was looking at something to protect my binos also and really liked what I saw on the badlands bino system.. the case has almost like a magnetic open/close system and they say it will seal out rain and dust. Anyone here use the bino-pac system? looks really sweet but I must say I'd love to be totin...

Scouting from home questions

I have drawn an elk tag in Unit 51 in NM for rifle Oct 22-26th. I grew up in Texas hunting whitetail deer but this is my first try for elk. I know its a totally different ballgame and preparation and scouting are super important. I've got most if not all of the equipment I'll need except for a few i...
