    Finally Measured My Antelope

    The other thing that I remember about that trip is that my Dad took one that was bigger than mine. I had the classical heart shape, dark black horns with ivory tips. Dad took them home and I never saw them again, don't know what happened to them. I have a 35mm slide somewhere in my collection of...

    Finally Measured My Antelope

    I took this antelope in 1990. I only had the Taxidermist put it on a wall plaque. He told me at the time, that is a pretty good one, you should mount it. I said I'm waiting until I get a "big" one. Years later, I took the wall plaque with me on a antelope hunt and took it in to him with one I...

    Considering an “E Bike”

    They are starting to market them. But I understand they don't do well on battery charge life in really cold weather.

    Greenland muskox

    An attorney I used to use in California had a full bodied Muskox in his office. Surprised me because 50 years ago (thats when it was) they were not very popular as a game animal.

    What’s the Best Way to Start Firearm Training for Beginners?

    You don't say what state you live in, but I would start with your state offered Hunter Safety course. That is just the basics and you can see what you want to further with. Go online to you state game & fish (or whatever it's called) and they can tell you when & where it is offered

    The 40 acre deer refuge 2025

    You are really cleaning them out! Funny story...... About 15 years ago we had an outbreak of skunks here. My neighbor back then was a retired USFS smoke jumper and he decided to thin them out. I loaned him my skunk live trap (not as tall so they can't lift their tail and spray). About a month...

    Noblie Damascus Knives

    I went to the webpage and looked them over. Yep they are not tools, they are art. Way too pricey for my taste. I collect some western and native american art that I really like and display them in my home.....I'll stick to that.

    Greys River

    I have never hunted Unit 90 in Wyoming. That being said I have a buddy who used to hunt it pretty regularly. He always used an outfitter and took some nice bulls. Pretty rugged and lots of Grizzleys where he hunted. The only reason he doesn't hunt it anymore is he is getting older and has MD in...
