    Wyoming outfitters

    Does anybody have any thoughts or insight on any of the following; timberline outfitters, Livingston outfitters, or table mountain?

    Wyoming Elk Outfitter 2023

    Happy New Year to all! My New Year’s resolution is to cash in points out west in 2023 so today I’m getting an early start and beginning research for an archery elk outfit in Wyoming. I’m hoping we aren’t too late but worth a shot. Would’ve preferred to do DIY but lots of circumstances won’t...

    More wall art!

    I was able to pick up my mount from last year and put it next to my 2020 deer. Post COVID has been good for whitetails, now to start planning to use Wy and Co points for Muley’s and elk!

    Gun/scope combo

    I just pulled the trigger on a Tikka 300 t3x win. mag and couldn’t make up my mind on scope. I ended up getting a vortex viper 6.5x20x50. I’m guessing most say too much scope but it was also a deal I couldn’t pass up. It was under $400. Thoughts? Opinions?

    You know it's a bad day when....

    You go to the neurosurgeon and they say you need a fusion rather quickly, then go for an MRI on your shoulder 3 hours later and have a torn rotator cuff and labrum and then see that Irma is coming right for you! Things happen in threes!

    Ohio muzzy trip

    I had a chance to go to Ohio over the weekend for a quick muzzy hunt and was able to accomplish my mission of putting some meat in the freezer.

    I was wondering if anyone could help with advice on whether or not I can thaw out meat, grind it, and then refreeze the ground venison? I took a doe to the processor the other night only to find out she had the flu and was not doing anymore processing this year. That left me skinning...
