    If it shoots the 77TMK well I wouldn't bother trying to modify the 80 ELDM by removing the tip or whatever

    Anxiety is a bitch, everyone has it to some degree but its learning how to manage it, that's the hard bit. I suffer from it, like Tahr commented and it can take a bit of enjoyment away. Probably a...

    Have hunted by myself mostly forever. In the days when meat was part of my living and I had a young family I taught myself to make good decisions under stressful conditions. I learned to be calm....

    Mine are 100% solo. Always have the Garmin inreach in a pouch in the front of the main bag, and hunting belt bag. If it's dodgey, I turn around/avoid it. Also conscious of having food/jacket...

    I don’t think so. Just make sure you have the usual measures in place to keep yourself safe such as a PLB or satellite communicator and route intentions with someone at home etc. Be conscious of not...

    99% of what Ive done is solo, admittedly a lot less than some on here. I wouldnt say its more dangerous, often the opposite. We are generally a stoic bunch, no one wants to admit to their hunting...

    A mentor I had in a previous time of my life. Said "It is better to have thought about it and tried, than to have thought about and not tried at all. " He was a person I still look up to. If your...

    I don't think the distance in should make a difference to how careful you are. I had an experience early on, falling hard against a tree in a deep little gully about 2.5 hours back from the car...

    I love going in solo, 2 people tend to make 3 times the noise as 1 person solo does. Always carry a PLB and now an inreach as well. I love the feeling of isolation, it goes a long way to delete any...

    Good question. I think it depends on a number of things as it’s a little bit of yes and a little bit of no. As long as one has the right comms available, plb, inreach etc. I think you can still...
