The hammock and pad showed up a while ago and I quickly spent a night setting up, adjusting and then sleeping in it. Let me highlight the fact that it was a single day thus an initial impression and not a full review. This also isn't my first hammock, I've spent a lot of leisure... Continue Reading →
A step towards mobility…
I partake in antlerless rifle elk hunts to help fill the freezer and thanks to Utah's extended archery season I also fill a tag in the lower country occasionally. For the most part however I can say that I'm exclusively a backcountry archery hunter. I began this journey a while back and I feel there... Continue Reading →
Backpack swap out
I've been running a kifaru for some time now and for what I was doing I had the perfect system I felt like. I'll do a break down on what I had and explain why I'm changing to prep for the USH. I chose to run the bikini frame for its mobility and the comfort... Continue Reading →

Settle for a slow down…….
Archery hunting off the beaten path is something I love, I came from absolute ground zero. I had hunted deer with a muzzleloader with my dad and his friends a total of about 4 years, they hunted from the cab of the truck in the morning and afternoon. The middle of the day was spent...

My adventures into trophy hunting and why it won’t happen again….
Trophy hunting….. Bring it up and you may quickly have a debate, the questions of what makes a trophy and if it even matters come out right away. Those are usually followed by people complaining about how others rate it differently, not considering the hunt conditions, and the accusations of you weren’t there you wouldn’t... Continue Reading →
Tag soup highway, where your plans and acts don’t intersect.
2013 was supposed to be my year, my lucky number 13, I figured the deal was already sealed, sadly I broke my own deal. I focused too much on luck and not enough on hard work, I slacked in ‘13 more than I had in the last few years. I still put in time and... Continue Reading →
86,400 & Living Life at Full Draw
Recently I listened to a member of my family talk about an interesting number, 86,400. They began with the idea of having a bank account set up by someone else in your name, in this account every morning there is $86,400. The same amount is there at the start of each new day, but what... Continue Reading →
