What's on your short list of new, upgrade, or replacement items for your 2015 elk hunting gearlist? I'm looking at a few things:
Tags for WA and ID
Dual bow carrier for my RZR.
MT bike handlebar bow mount
New (Xtra) release
Small/lightweight target for hunting camp(s)
Light (warm weather) bow hunting pants
New bow sight
Better holster for my Taurus .44 (for ID big bear country hunt)
Another spare headlamp (can't have too many headlamps, lol).
What's on your short list for elk gear for this fall?
-
The Elk! I think I have everything I need.
-
Not specifically elk gear but I am watching for a good deal or sale on a solid outfitter/wall/multi person base camp tent. Been talking about it for years but this year will scoop one up for sure

Will do. My buddies are wondering what I am gonna pull across the yard first to test it out. lol

All I want is a punched tag.
-
Gotta get the bow restrung and a new sight.
-
New string on my bow, picked up a back-up release. Also need a hunt OnX california chip for my GPS as I'm moving there next month.

Sitka Jetstream Jacket would suit me well, it's just a matter of time! (grin)

Yep that was worth the drive effort to get! Good work! :tup:

I can't wait to get my hands on it. :tup: Anybody making a trip from Bremerton to Walla Walla? :chuckle:
-
If you can get it down to long beach this weekend I can bring it home Monday. Sunday is the opener of the clam dig out there so maybe someone from the area is heading down to dig. I will be there from Friday night to Monday, not digging, just drinking and relaxing.
-
Shoot, I am gonna start a thread in the transportation swap board, this might work out. Thanks xj.
-
Just got aemo pentalite 4 but working on momma to give the ok for a kifaru sawtooth. Other than that pretty well set besides my wa and id elk tags.
-
I'm going to need a double Bjorn... :chuckle:
-
My gear purchases for the season are always based on how much money I get back from tags I don't draw. If I don't draw anything (besides my otc tags) then I have extra cash for new toys.
I will be adding a few things though.
-New top lip for the Kifaru
-BA Bellyache mummy bag
-New rims and tires for my mountain bike
-upgrade the GPS (probably a rhino)
-
Looking to streamline my gear into two totes after I get done buying more goodies :chuckle:

Only a fool would put the blue towels on the bottom. :chuckle:
I'll be adding a rhino 650 to my elk gear.

All i want is one of these maybe a little bigger one.

Yeah and get one that has more symmetry. The left fronts are about 1/2" longer
-
Right. Other than that i could use a new release. New stings on one bow. New bugle so i look cooler in the woods. Maybe some overpriced sitka gear you cant kill elk with out gotta look good in those trophy photos.

I disagree. You can kill elk without Sitka but you can't take pictures without it :tup:
I typically carry all my Sitka gear and change into it after I've tagged the animal and preparing for some stills.
Good call on the bugle though, make sure you get one of those pontoon sized ones. Just don't practice when there is snow in the mountains or you'll start an avalanche.
