Karl J. Findling, Owner of Oregon Pack Works, has been chosen as the new Conservation Director for Lands, for the Oregon Hunters Association.
His focus will be increasing and maintaining hunter access, land use, habitat programs and issues affecting hunters on all Oregon landscapes.

In the March-April issue of Western Hunting Journal, our BinoBro ProHunter was reviewed along side the other major manufactured binocular packs. Most in the review are made Overseas, a few in America.

It seems with the advent of the internet and the pervasive gear and Hunting Forums, hunting enthusiasts flock to, the idea of “What’s in your backpack?” has taken on a life of its own.
The topic of gear never dies. We all seem to be gear-heads. We are normally seeking a lighter, cheaper or an expensive upgrade-solution that we perceive we need.

Many of us on budgets don't spend the necessary money for a pack that can haul heavy weights, so many hunters suffer with a pack that is ill-equipped to carry heavy loads.
I know I did for years, as my mentor, my brother-in-law used old-style military pack boards for meat-hauls. We'd all suffer for hours at a time on long meat-hauls. I'm not sure his motives, other than budget, or no pack suited him, but it was if to make me tougher, or to never want to use such ill-equipped packs for meat hauling, ever again!

In the recent Western Hunting Journal review, all of the backpacks in the review are capable hunting packs-Yes!
It is difficult though to compare Apples to Oranges; all fruit yes, but different fruit. The WholeShabang! that was tested, is a significantly DIFFERENT pack than those next to it. First, the WS! weighs 9# 9 ounces. The Orion weighs, 6# 6 ounces.

It is warm. I notice the mornings are way above freezing and the mid-day temperatures nearly 70 degrees.
Where is our normally crappy, rainy, and some first-season late-October, elk rifle-snow that makes this time of year magic?! This feels like it should be September, archery season, but it was cold with snow.

The BinoBro and BinoBro-ProHunter share the same universal, low profile, one-size fits most harness in the Binocular protection market.
Most users prefer the standard way of utilizing the O.E.M. neck strap lengthened slightly to not bear weight, and utilize the neck strap inconjunction with the harness--as sold.
The end finally came. Like any good movie or a book you just can't put down. The end was inevitable. Early mornings and late nights were the norm. So many bulls screaming at one another in the fading light each day...

The third morning of the season had extremely warm temperatures. I knew I was only going to have a couple hours at best before any elk in the area would be bedded down.

The bull screamed less than 80 yards from my ground blind. I was hoping he was working his way towards the wallow that was 25 yards to my front. As I peeked out a side window I spotted him just as he stepped from the trees, he was a mature 6x6 with heavy beams.
