I keep saying this... today's mechanical broadheads are just different--they ain't like the old-school expandables we shot 10 years ago--or even 5 years ago. I've now killed multiple animals with these broadheads, including my boulder 5x5 bull--although I used the Deadmeat for him; in hindsight I wouldn't hesitate to use the Megameat on an elk in the future. These pictures are from an Alberta Bear Hunt I did last spring--the film from this hunt is pretty wild. The close range, slow motion footage of these bears getting hit by this broadhead is both fascinating and a little disturbing--it's definitely gonna need to be "edited for TV" before it lands on Youtube. I'll show you guys the raw version--but maybe don't watch it with anyone too squeamish. @JayCawley -- please wait just bit longer for you 100g Megameats. I have boxes of 125g MM. And boxes of 100g Deadmeats. But I'm having difficulty getting 125g MM--they've been selling like hotcakes! A new order will arrive next week and then I'll get these sent off to you! Hope ya'll are having a great summer! The fall is just around the corner!

First off — good luck to everyone heading out for hunts this fall. Can’t wait to see your photos, stories, and the action roll in here in the Hideout.
Over the next 4–6 weeks, Brian and I will both be in and out w/ hunts. But we want to keep the Hideout rolling with our weekly livestreams.
Here’s the plan:
🎥 Brian’s going to try streaming live straight from the mountain.
• Depending on the hunt and conditions, he may have to bail last minute — but we’re sure going to try.
• Please be patient and keep an eye on the posts for updates.
Plan on the same nights / same times as usual.
For the weeks we’re able to pull this off, there will be giveaways, but because i won't be able to be on at the same time, we’ll run those later in the week and post winners right here in the member chat.
Thanks for sticking with us, and for being part of this community.
Stay gritty,
– Travis & Brian
Found a couple new bucks tonight! This old buck is about 250 yards from my tent.
