On Saturday, October 19th, the low temperature was forecasted to be right around 30° F. As I drove to my morning hunting location in western Pennsylvania, the car read 29° F. When I stepped out, it sure felt like it. This was the first frost of the year and the entire forest was shining in […]
I’ll preface this by saying I haven’t seen any pictures of waterfowlers wearing SKRE gear, so I may have a first there. If not, I’m sure there is a first in my story, but I’ll get to that later. The morning started around 2 AM when a couple of buddies and I decided to make […]
After ordering my first extreme all season bundle in the Summit pattern at the Denver expo in 2018, I have since added the extreme all season package in the Mountain Stealth pattern. Hands down the best bang for the buck when it comes to hunting apparel. Whether its early season with warmer weather to the […]
Had a trip planned to MT for November since early this year. I knew talking to a few people I needed to plan on weather ranging from frigid cold to 60 degrees as the weather always seems to change. I had always run Cabelas gear camo because it was in my price range. I knew […]
SKRE SUCCESS!! I harvested this beautiful mountain goat on September the 4th. This hunt actually started back in April when I received email from Colorado Division of Wildlife that I had been successful in drawing the tag in unit G3. The work started from that day researching, getting maps ready and all supplies needed. Then […]
I have rifle hunted my entire life. About a year and a half ago, I decided to get into archery. I loved the idea of the challenge, and let’s face it, there’s nothing better than big bucks in the velvet! I was super excited when I drew an archery tag for the unit right in […]
My name is Ryan Compton owner of S&R Outfitters. Hog control or field protection is one of my most favorite times of the year. Weather it be corn, wheat, soy beans or even hay fields. The pigs leave the woods & move to the harvest. It’s hot on most nights. Wild hogs […]
This past Memorial weekend I competed in the California State 3D Broadhead Tournament that was held at Tejon Ranch in Gormon California, that’s only put on once a year by California Bowmen Hunters Big Game Club. Checking the weather on the Weather Channel app it called for 75 degrees and slightly windy. On day one […]
Turkey hunting in rolling mountain forests a second favorite behind alpine elk adventures? Calling for a swaggering gobbler almost as intense as stalking a stud bull? So said my friend, Sheldon. Really? Never having experienced a turkey hunt I arranged with Sheldon to show me the ropes this Spring on what turned out to be […]
When I was 20 years old – full of youthful energy, a passion for big game hunting, and plenty of physical strength – I would look at a steep, distant mountain peak and think, “How long will it take me to climb to the top of that mountain?” Now, as I approach age 50 – […]
