Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Backpack Hunting MR Crew Cab in Classifieds?

Greeny,
I thought I was the only marooon that would kill a whitetail that has to be boned out? Guessing that was a treestand hunt over a cornfield, NOT! This one came out in stew and steak meat portions...

That's a gorgeous buck! Was that your first attempt at facial hair? Boning out whitetails is for special needs folks, they were made to throw in the truck whole or drag less than 200 yards to a road.

I still had to wait about another decade before I could grow whiskers..

That's definitely an error on our part... we had to rush to get the Skiritai up on the website... it's a highly specialized military pack... we'll be fixing the weight asap! Thanks for pointing that out guys.

Best.

Better shot of that one.. animals that you shoot from a blind, not usually so much backpack material. My blind was a fort I made of alfalfa bales. My first buck, hunting by myself, before school.

How wide is that puppy? You were what, like 14 years old?

I'm really starting to dislike you.....

Your first buck ruined you!

Greeny,
I still can't grow facial hair. I think it is something they put in the water in Missoula to keep testosterone count down. I have even tried Miracle Grow, Paul Harvey said it will make anything grow! You don't know how frustrating is it to talk to your pediatrician at 16 years old and ask for Viagra...
What the hell, that is a toad... can remember all the morning hunts I snuck in before school, but nothing like that ever ended up in the bed of my truck, well there was one cheerleader but I didn't have to put a tag on her.
The good old days when you could leave a rifle in your truck at school. I can remember Mr Hightower calling me to the office to have me lock my rifle in my locker so he didn't have to worry about someone stealing it, of course he asked me to make sure it was unloaded. Safety First.

Must be a Montana thing.

If you're really dumb you leave 'em whole and make a horse do the work.
Had to whack off the tail, it got to floppin' and spooked the Meatwagon.

SamO,
That looks like a Montana convoy! Throw some horns on old Bucky and I know some guys we can take hunting. LOL Casey

Give him time. He'll grow on you.

I have a feeling this thread is going to get interesting in a couple days. Congrats guys.

Oh, and don't make fun of guys who pack out whitetails, Greenie.

Some of us are special needs when it comes to whitetails.

Bigfin,
Maybe we can start a support group... "Hello, my name is Bigfin (shameful pause as you look at the floor) and I have backpacked whitetail deer out." All of us chime in at once, "Welcome Bigfin." Next person in line in our support circle, "Hello, my name is Ovishunter (awkward pause as I fight back tears of embarrasment) I have backpacked whitetail deer out." "Welcome Ovishunter."
We could get Greeny to be the facilitator. "Hello folks, my name is Greenhorn, and I too have backpacked whitetail deer. It all started innocently, I was actually hunting elk, way off the beaten path... you know, the elk haunts... Well, this whitetail buck jumps out and without heistation BOOOOM! He's dead and I am asking myself, why did I just do that." A look of humilation falls over his face and begins to sob and cry. Somebody yells out, "For God's sake, get that man a beer!"
SamO can jump in, "It's alright Greeny, I actually packed one out on horses before." Everyone can stare in disbelief. Someone yells, "Get the hell out, we don't take 'your kind in here!" Of course we wouldn't let SamO leave, we'd have to buy him a beer to drown his sorrow too.
Of course these meetings would have take place at a bar. I think there could be a lot of progress made. LOL Happy hunting, Casey

PS Are we gonna have to get someone to run over to Hardcore's house to do a welfare check? I am starting to worry about the fella. I see he read my PM but I didn't get an answer, he must have swung by the thread to see how things were rolling, not the same without him. I just checked and he took his photobucket pics down... no reply on my offer to send him my Longbow for a test drive...

I'm sure he's at home fondling his cough silencer. Good thing we didn't break it to him that scent lock doesn't work. Coulda snapped him.

Calvin,
Had a buddy who swore by Scentlok. I won't say that it doesn't help because I have no way of proving it doesn't HELP, but offered to let him go hide, I'd wait 20 minutes and turn a patrol dog loose and see if his scent was "invisible". He didn't seem interested... but he "just knew" it worked.

I think we may have hurt his feelings.. It only took 48 pages..

He headed over to bowsite and continues to make a fool out of himself,
He's still trying to convince people that Iowa has mountains bigger than New Mexico,
He's still boring people to death with his self-proclaimed hard core status,
He's still trying to convince everyone that MR packs are beneath him.. Blah Blah Blah

The only person I worry about is that Joe Fine fella, Can you imagine being the other half of Hardcore's split personality?

HA Which one would Joe Fine be?

I would like to just say thank you for many laughs on this fine Friday! All I can add is do not say the MR stuff did not work for you, it will get you killed here and on Bowsite. I tried it and will say MR makes the best made stuff hands down! For me the Kifaru line works FOR ME better. I think eberlestock makes a good and creative product, but when weights get up there maybe not the best, but still a good design and more than most will ever need.
You Alaska guys are in a league of your own and other than the BC boys git ur dun! I hope to get there some day! For now it is NM, AZ, and CO until kids don't need braces, etc. My trophy room makes me proud, but GrenHorn is a machine! Use what works for you, keeps you safe, and makes you happy.
It is too bad people get so emotional and do not remember the internet is a good learning tool, but like that Brad Paisley song sas, I become someone I am not on the web! I just hope I draw my NM tags Wednesday and thanks for sharring all your experience!

Don't tell anyone but I'm working on a prototype Scentlok suit for my horse.
It's still in the initial stages but I hope to have a perfected version completed in time for the upcoming hunting season.

You mean you actually tried various products and formed your own opinion? What a crazy concept!

SamO,
If you can design scentlok undies that will keep scent from escaping my wife would pay thousands for 7 pairs for me to wear each day of the week. I think it would ruin the spice of our love life though, would really take the fun out of pulling the covers up over her head.

Kenneth,
Hmmmm... still posting on Bowsite but not here, I guess that means he really didn't want to try out one of the MR packs. Silly me, here I thought I was trying to be a standup guy and offer mine up for a free test run. Guess I am an idiot.

Dinkshooter,
Hardcore would most likely be the construction dude. Rolled up sleeves to show the hardcore biceps and mirror sunglasses. He might be the Native American, or at least wishes he was. He couldn't care the guys headdress though. For sure not the cop, if I recall he despises all cops.

Bummer he ran off, I was really getting to like him.

Just got an email in, had to do some wheeling and dealing. I thought I was a hardcore Mystery Ranch fan, but this pic of Greenhorn proves he is the ultimate MR fan. I thought only chicks got tramps stamps?
