    I realize these videos are a couple of years old but y’all should know they continue to inspire. I have been subscribed to LunkersTV for quite some time and while watching his Solo elk hunt that you guys bailed him out on, was turned onto your channel. I watched a video or too and was hooked. Over the last 2 weeks or so I have gotten my hunting license renewed (which hasn’t been active in decades), improved my bow skills, set up a beginners pack of gear, scouted out some public land here in Maryland and practiced getting up in a tree with a new climbing stand. This afternoon was my first sit and I couldn’t have felt more alive. Thank you so much gentleman and keep doing what you do.

    Going back to my old hunting grounds is like going home. Calm, peaceful, and great memories. Going to a new place on the map is sometimes like going to a concert having no idea who the opening act is and if they are any good. But you are still going to have a good time looking around.

What are the rules for spikes in WY? Also, at 7:42 it sounds like a muzzleloader touches off not far in the distance. Too bad the 5X didn't come out.

    I packed up my gear, brought some fly fishing stuff (but had it stolen a few weeks ago!) and flew from Australia. Went around Montana and Wyoming. I *will* be going back for sure. If you're in the US and you're not getting out there you're insane.
    The basic gear I use:
    Decent boots (or even just Merrell hiking shoes) and multiple good quality socks, 1 man tent or hootchie, a small-ish Leatherman brand multi-tool (most other brands are shit), 0 or -5 degree rated sleeping bag (Snugpak is good), sleeping mat (for insulation from the ground, comfort is secondary), a rain-resistant jacket, hat/beanie, lightweight gas burner setup or jetboil, basic first-aid stuff, LED head lamp, compass (just a cheap one), 70L pack or whatever fits your gear, dry bags / large ziploc bags.
    Open up Facebook Marketplace or "cregs list" and get some basic gear sorted. It's not going to be cheap, but people waste almost twice as much money on a new mobile phone!
    If you aren't in a position to shoot then go fishing, no excuse! Be quiet and leave no trace.

    It all depends on your personal goals. If your looking to put meat in the freezer then by all means take the shot. Maybe your wanting something bigger then hold out. I have really enjoyed watching the LOF. I look forward to watching this every night. Keep up the good work and stay safe.

      This year was the first time I planned to camp off my backpack!
      I bought a cheap, 1 person tent from Walmart, and then I waterproofed it. Bought a 20 degree sleeping bag. A cheap sleeping pad. "Might have been a pool floatie " lol a 6x6 tarp . I also bought. A framed backpack.
      It's an alps outdoorz X pack . That doubled as a meat pack. Can see it on RUclips. Then there is the jetboil knock off. And a water filter system . Now every year I'm gonna replace something with something better. But I went cheap cheap.
      It all worked fine for me. I bought 2 boxes of mnt house meals. Anyway . There is a video on RUclips with Cody, I think doing a pack dump , before water I think my pack weight was 43 pounds.
      Good luck and happy hunting!

    A few episodes you guys talked about your face paint this year and how easily it comes off. My hunting partner and I use wine corks. Just burn an end with a lighter and let it cool before applying it. It stays on well even when sweating and wipes off pretty easily with a damp cloth. I personally use unscented baby wipes and they work great for getting the cork ash off my face. Learned the trick when I was playing college baseball and our coach didn't want us using the greasy eye black because he didn't want us staining "his" uniforms. Hey gave us a bag of wine corks and the rest is history.

    He passes, he had to on the 5 point.. While it was sooo close, there was just no shot. On the spike I don't know if they are legal to shoot there? If so I probably would have shot, because as close as I have came I have not gotten an elk with my bow yet. But I will be out in September trying again.. But that is me, not everyone hunts the same and we don't have to as long as we are all on the same side and getting out there and doing it.. That elk tender loin though..... That looked good!!

      But ya. Dont get me wrong I understand that when it's about the meat you take what's presented. But where these guys are shooting 5 out of 6 tags filled , I'm pretty sure they can afford to share their meat with the people whom helped pack their animals out.
