Great job on the gear video Trail Thank You for sharing your knowledge and information. When are you or the guys going to take Jillian Elk Hunting. God's Blessings on all your adventures this fall.

@richardkramer1094 2 года назад

Good review. At this point I have 2 sets of gaiters and I don’t need a third, but will give them a look should I ever need to replace a set. Always enjoy the gear reviews though.

@kylehosler9980 2 года назад

Thanks Trail. Always fun to learn from a gear yard sale!

Trail, what pack size do you wear and what's your waist size? I always have trouble finding packs to fit, and especially this one, I'm right on the cusp of small and medium. Thanks,

@user-lu8zy4fk8f 2 года назад

I've been a Leupold optics fan for more than 40 years, but you might want to check out their policy on electronics before buying their range finder. I found out the hard way after spending a bunch of money on one that only lasted a couple years only to be told they don't warranty electronics.

Great video, love the gear lists! What finger sling does Trail use? Did not see in video, but have noticed on other platforms. Thanks in advance!

This is the AAE Super Sling Finger Sling. You can find it here in our Gear Shop: shop.gohunt.com/products/aae-super-sling-finger-sling

Ditto on the pillow. A good night's sleep is priceless in the field. I have the same one (in fact, most my gear matches yours).

How do you pack the gear in the backpack?

@timothyworthington6638 2 года назад

If you wanted to go for a 3-4 day hunt what are a few things you could cut out of your pack to save weight that aren't 110% necessary.

@GOHUNT 2 года назад

Hey Timothy, thanks for reaching out! Great question. You can shoot Trail an email at trail@gohunt.com He is currently in Alaska right now but once he gets back, he'll get back to you!

@darrind8697 2 года назад

Great vid . What is your draw length and how long do you cut your platinum pierce arrows?? Any half-out failures ? cheers

@trailkreitzer9163 2 года назад

Draw length is 30" and I cut my arrows carbon to carbon at 29" and as I stated use the factory Gold Tip pierce inserts and collars. I have not had any failures. I have had to pull a few inserts and/or try a few different combos of the inserts and collars to get a good straight combination but never failure. Overall, they have been really solid for me. Typically out of a dozen I will get 8-9 really straight very consistent weighing arrows.

@darrind8697 2 года назад

Thank you very much .

@weshenson9166 2 года назад

@anthonylangager7260 2 года назад

What brand and size of sil nylon sacks do you use for organization

@GOHUNT 2 года назад

I have been using the Kifaru silnylon pull-outs but I have had them for almost 8 years I think. They work great, but there are many similar options that work well too..l ike the Mystery Ranch Zoid Bags, Stone Glacier Swing Out and Camp pockets. Z-packs also offer dymeena pockets that are light and work well. You can find those here in our Gear Shop: shop.gohunt.com/ --Trail Kreitzer

@deanbatten8349 2 года назад

Trial what’s the weight of your tripod and head setup? I’m trying to decide on a total weight that I’m willing to pack in. This is my first year adding a spotter and it adds up quick. Im a backpack hunter in Idaho and usually pack in 4 or so miles to set up spike camp. So I’m trying to avoid any unnecessary weight if possible.

@francishernandez3859 2 года назад

I have the same tripod I think it is 2 lbs brotha!

@GOHUNT 2 года назад

Hey Dean. The tripod and head setup weigh approximately 3 lbs 10 oz. Thanks for watching. -Trail Kreitzer

@marlind8939 2 года назад

What made you decide to switch from bee stinger to Aaron stabilizers?

@GOHUNT 2 года назад

Primarily I just like trying new equipment and I liked the fit/finish of the AAE Mountain Series stabilizers. The end caps are quality, the added sound dampener pieces are a nice bonus and I like that they are micro diameter like the Microhex which should buck the wind well. The AAE are also available in a 8, 10, 12, and 15 inch lengths with three 1 oz weights. I may end up going back to Beestinger stabs, they are a great set of stabilizers but the primary reason for the AAE's is just to see if they are are quality as they feel. -Trail Kreitzer

@Gnarwall87 2 года назад

Just picked up a SG M7 jacket. How critical is having rain proof pants too? I run some pants with a dwr finish.

@GOHUNT 2 года назад

For me, I prefer to have a rain pant and jacket or perhaps something like the Hilleberg Bivanorak. A couple different situations, spot and stalk mule deer, I am mostly riding out mid after noon rain storms and I can get away with something like the Bivanorak that will keep me entirely dry until those swells pass. Archery elk hunting I am often on the move and it's not uncommon to remain in the hunt even during a downpour if the bulls are still talking, for that situation..I need a pant and jacket. I prefer not to go to bed and then have to get up with wet clothing, so for me, I like having a pant and jacket or something like the bivanorak that covers my whole body while riding out a storm. -Trail Kreitzer

How would you say the Leopold full draw 4 and vortex ranger 1800 compare? I am in the market and keep bouncing back and fourth

That's a really nice setup, but how do you get that elk rack on your right side in your pack!?. LoL 🤣

@GOHUNT 2 года назад

Hey Lyndsay. The dyneema version of the Seek Outside tents are only offered directly through their site. Unfortunately the material is tough to come by and they cannot produce the quantity for us to carry it in the shop. Thanks for watching and best of luck this season!

Great job.... but let's say you have a son and a daughter that are high drive for hunting what should be in there pack....? So I can show some them your response so dad doesn't have to pack the world on his back in no place I saw a spot for lip gloss or hair ties (but I'll go as far long they are laughing happy and having a good time. I'm a sucker for kids in the woods any where

@GOHUNT 2 года назад

It will somewhat depend on their age and the hunt, but I did a backpack hunt with my 15-year-old son last year and he carried all of his own gear except for items that we only needed one of. He carried his own food, insulation layers, sleeping bag, pad, and water. On a normal day hunt my kids will carry their own food, water, and extra clothes and some loose gear. Thanks for watching! -Trail Kreitzer

@GOHUNT 10 часов назад

Trail likes Sitka, and so over the years, he's acquired a lot of pieces from them. But he does mix and match brands from time to time. The great thing, there's lots of great options when it comes to hunting clothing these days.

@stewartbrown782 2 года назад

A+ as always Trail, so I’ll nitpick a bit here. Do you think it a little shortsighted to showcase $6-8k worth of gear for a backcountry elk hunt and then attribute a recent failed harvest to a $250-700 rangefinder and shrug it off? I realize it’s all about prioritizing hard earned money for us regular guys with families, just not sure I’d assume risk on a critical component to my “weapon system.” Kinda made me cringe, but I’m horrible at range estimation - especially on incline. Certainly not a hater, just a concerned follower. Stay frosty boys…

@trailkreitzer9163 2 года назад

Haha..love it! Ya that was all me and my mistake wholly, just a mental flop on my part. I sat on that bull all day, closed the distance to within 65 yrds and he worked into a window steep downhill from me. I've used that Leica Rangemaster for several years without issue, but for whatever reason that day I took the range, dialed 5 yards to my slider and executed the shot...and missed. You're correct when I have 6-8K in gear, a $400 rangefinder is a not a big deal given the fact that we put so much money and effort into these hunts....but, that shot...it hurt. It left a lasting impression and unequivocally it's a mistake I know I will not make again which is why I can justify not buying a new one. I'd like a new one, but I feel confident going forward that I will not make the mistake again. That shot hurt bad and those are the lessons that last the longest!
