Decided this afternoon to go to a stand that has not been hunted much this year. We built a foot bridge to get to this condo stand as you have to cross a small creek that is 8-9 feet deep. The crossing is in a very shaded area and the snow/ice was frozen hard. As I neared the crossing I had to...

I’m determined to get in better shape this year. Cardio will be on the menu at least five days a week. As far as building strength goes, I don’t know how often to work the muscle groups. Arms, legs, back, abs and upper body. I’m 66 years old, 5‘ 10” and 202 lbs. Completely out of shape. Also any...

I hunted out of my last one for many years. Don’t really know how many. Put up in October and pulled in February. It had its last hunt in January. What do y’all use? Needs to be big enough for two. Mainly interested in durability.

What bait do you use in your DP traps? I have used sardines and marshmallows. Sardines seem to work better than the marshmallows but are extremely messy. Any better ideas?

Found some last night at Sportsman’s Warehouse. Ordered mine and it is on the way. First I’ve found in over a year.

I have been thinking about buying an Over/Under shotgun for a while now. Purchased the CZ today for an upcoming Quail hunt. All reviews I’ve read are good. It was hard for me to spend $2k+ on a Browning or Baretta so the CZ got the nod. I was tired of dragging my duck gun (Baretta A300) on...

As the title says, I am thinking about a dove hunting trip to Argentina for me, my son, my son-in-law and three grandsons. Lots of options on the internet but would love to hear from someone with hands on experience. TIA

A friend has lost the screw and nut from his factory Ruger scope ring. Brownells has them on back order. Any body got a loose set of rings (or screw and nut) in the safe they would sell? I’ve got a boat load of stuff but not one of these.

Just purchased a new 14’ trailer to pull my Kawasaki Mule Pro FXT. It is a single axle with 205/15 size tires. The trailer came with new but cheap tires. What is the best tire for this application. Some of you boat and camper owners might want to chime in. Thanks in advance.

I have a Model 7 in Remington 260 that I want to change to a caliber that shoots a heavier bullet. I’m thinking KISS and re-barrel to a 308 Win. I will keep the same stock and barrel taper and length of 20”. Thoughts? Barrel brand? I have a gunsmith that will perform the change.

Thankfully I learned from the shortage a few years back and the seasonal production of certain ammunition. I have plenty of hunting ammunition in four different calibers and enough 22 cal. to last a lifetime. People I know apparently did not get the memo and now can’t find hunting ammunition. I...

I will be applying for a Mule Deer NR hunt in Region A for 2021. I have searched the forum for information but find non. The current regs allow a lot of tags. Just looking for general information please. This will be my first Mule Deer hunt as I am a Whitetail hunter from Mississippi. Thanks in...

I am looking at the possibility of purchasing a 2012 Polaris 500 Ranger Crew. I currently have a 5’ x 8’ trailer for my four wheeler and know the Polaris will not start to fit on it. Question is do I need a 6’ x 10’ or 6’ x 12’ with a fold up gate? I don’t want too much as I have an 18’ for the...

My son is trying to decide between a Tikka T3x Superlite or Browning Hell?s Canyon in 300 WM. The Tikka lists a 11? twist while the Browning lists a 8? twist. There is bound to be a great difference between bullet weight performance in the two. I don?t have any experience with a 300WM so let?s...

I shoot a Tikka T3 SL in 7RM. I tried 140 gr Federal loaded with Nosler Partitions with 2+ inch groups. Went to Remington Core Lokts in 150 gr and shoot consistent 1.5 ? groups. That?s what I have been hunting with. I sighted in today with the Core Lokts waiting 10 minutes between shots. Still...

I occasionally look at the deals in Cabela?s Bargain Cave. Tonight I saw the Polartech ECWCS Polar Weight base layer that I wear on sale for $29.88. I retrieved my credit card to order. Sold Out! I continued to view other items but noticed very few items in there. Looks like my favorite base...

I purchased a new Tikka 7RM last year. I decided that I would break in the barrel as suggested on several sites I visited. Clean before first shot and between each shot through 10 shots. This was a pain but allowed the barrel to cool between shots. Then after three shots for 9 more rounds. The...

I will be in a wall tent this fall in Utah. I need to purchase a cot for the hunt. Experience appreciated.

what are the chances of seeing/killing a spike Elk in the LaSalles if that is the only tag you have?
