What's a good bow for shooting small animals and typical innawoods lollygagging

Martin makes a nice #45 recurve. I paid +-$225 6 years ago. I can get the model # after work if you need it, but I'm sure you can find 'em.

Bear makes several models 50# and up, but most are at least $300. Their Patriot longbow @#60 is my favorite of theirs that I own.

PSE used to sell a recurve in the #50-#60 range that was about $150. The pull stacks pretty bad, but it's useable.

If you're serious about this, learn to make your own arrows from shafts stock. If you're talking squirrel, rabbits, and birds, you're gonna lose alot of arrows, even if you hit what you intend to.

Bear Archery Warrior 3 is your best bet for small game and messing about. Amazon has them for $90 USD and they come with a lot of components for that price. My son kills squirrels with his steady.

Hey /out/ looking for a lightweight solo tent, currently got my eye on a six moons lunar solo, want something around the 6-700g mark, and that uses trekking pole(s). Cuben seems too expensive. Any recommendations?

Okay I live in the middle of Alberta, and it gets really cold. At least -20° to -30° Celsius.
Despite this fact what are some good winter camping tips, so I don't freeze myself frozen solid.
14 posts and 3 images submitted.

I was part of a failed winter camping adventure in Kananaskis, so I can give you a bit of advice of what not to do.

>If you're not experienced in winter camping, don't go alone, and preferably go with someone who knows a good amount about it already.
We were all experienced campers and hikers and we were in over our heads

>Check the weather report and prepare for the worst
We got caught in an unexpected snowstorm and temps dropped 15 or so degrees even though we did check.

>Leave early in the day if you're hiking in
The trails can be significantly worse than what you'd expect or are told.

>Bring water and high energy food
You'll burn a lot of calories in the cold and melting snow for water can get very old very quick.

>stay with your group and if things get hairy just know when to leave.
That's where my group really went wrong, we got over confident, got split up, and didn't acknowledge when it was time for us to go back because we were in real danger. The snowstorm was not on the weather report and we were not prepared for it, we should have turned back then, but we stubbornly decided that since we drove all the way out there we couldn't just abandon the trip.

Also just regular outdoorsmanship stuff like letting people know where you're going, how long you'll be gone, etc.
>>
>>965917
Thank very much, that's good advice.
>>
>>965917
I honestly can't imagine being in snowstorm outside in a tent. Brrr. That just gives me chills thinking about it.

I'm hoping HPG get the Ute back in to stock soon (pic related). Any similar bags out there? I like the size, aesthetics (in b4 fag), and quality, particularly the straps and it's ability to compress a bit.

Take a leaf and rub it on your to see if you react.

Idk what it is tho.
>>
>>965184
Damn, thats actually pretty good advice anon.
Thanks
>>
>>965172
You'll probably be fine ingesting it as an herbal. Although, doing >>965184 may actually trigger an allergic reaction.

For myself, I can't get fresh mint leaves on me (crushed up and smeared) as it causes a reaction. Making it into a cup of herbal is just fine and there's no reaction.

I suggest taking it as prescribed. I don't know the name, but it looks familiar.

Hiking with scoliosis.

I have a mild S-curved spine and fine my neck and shoulders, middle back and lower back getting really tight/sore when I start to push it.

Anyone have any tips for how to carry rucksack, alleviate pain etc?

I did 19km the other day in snowy conditions and did fine except I started to feel the strain when I reached dry land and my spine had to absorb solid ground again on the descent.

I love the outdoors, but I'm not realistically going to be working anywhere other than an office as an engineer.

Most jobs outdoors are manual labor or skilled trades, what about more technical work?

Are there any truly /out/ STEM careers?

I'm in Uni for mechanical engineering, and I'm getting terrified that my life is going to become 9-5 at a desk and ~3 weekend camping trips a year until I die of obesity and bad posture
