Exactly. I started keto last December. The first month is a lot of transition. It takes a few weeks to get your body retuned to a better diet when you're coming off of a high carb diet. But it doesn't take forever. After 30 days, you're pretty much over the hardest part. If you quit then...

I shoot Black Eagle Spartan arrows with 125gr QAD Exodus heads. Mine are 527 grains total, with the 125gr heads. FOC is 17.25%. The hit like Thor's hammer, if his hammer were razor sharp. :D

I shot 100 gr Game Kings for years in my .240 Weatherby. But about 10-12 years ago, I got a bad batch of them. The first couple deer I shot with that batch, the bullets completely fell apart. I'd find pieces of lead and empty copper jackets in the deer. I pulled the rest of them and replaced...

And I like the Wind Plex reticle. I dial elevation and then hold on an upwind dot for windage.

I keep mine MOA. I rarely shoot past 400 yards, so I don't need to dial often. When I do, I use Strelok Pro app set to my current location and weather conditions, and then dial dope based on that. For me, it's a lot easier than having to worry about carrying several CDS rings for different...

Yes sir. That was his .257 in those pics. He has a 7mag as well. I took his 7mag with me on my desert bighorn hunt. I got to take my son with me on the hunt, so I used Dad's gun so he could have a part in it too. :) I have a German .240 that Dad gave me when I was 12. Also have a more...

I like hunting. It's hard to pick just one. I've killed a pile of mule deer and whitetail. Some really nice, but nothing super huge. I've killed a few aoudad. I've killed an elk. Pronghorn, a Texas desert bighorn (pretty much a dream hunt, 2 tags/year deal), a bunch of free range axis...

There's a buck with the recessive gene for sure. But if he is heterozygous, his other dominant gene for normal coloration will be the one that is expressed. Gotta be homozygous, like the yearling, to have the recessive gene expressed. (edit: you already covered that in a later post) Super...

I had it for almost a year and a half a few years ago. I tried all the stuff....insoles, rolling on frozen water bottles, ibuprofen, etc.... My wife read in a runners' magazine that wearing flip flops is great rehab for plantar fasciitis. We were in Hawaii at the time. She bought me some...

Whhhhhhh...... Whhhhhh...... Is this thing on? :D

We saw it and thought it was great. There are some historical inaccuracies, but nothing really major. Some people don't like the movie because of that. I thought it was a good movie though. I don't like many movies. I usually have the opposite opinion as most movie critics. The movies they...

I have a .240 Weatherby that I've had since I was a kid (old German Mark V). I keep 100 gr Partitions loaded for it. It's killed a pile of mule deer, whitetail, antelope, aoudad, axis, hogs, coyotes, blackbuck...... It packs a lot more punch than a .243, but the recoil isn't bad at all. It's...

I've never eaten sika, but I hear it's excellent eating too. Probably fairly similar to elk, I'd imagine.

They're fun to hunt. They behave more like elk than like whitetail. They're not as patternable (if that's a word) as whitetail. They're more nomadic. They are very vocal, like elk. Cow elk calls are very similar to axis does, in fact. But the axis buck bellow is WAY different than an elk...

That's a cool buck. I like the shot you got, as it looks like a real world hunting scene. But I hope you get a shot of him in the open with the golden light hitting him just right this weekend. The bucks are out cruising and chasing does right now - all day long. Your timing should be good.

The Hill Country is almost like hunting Africa. There are tons of different animals free ranging now, after decades of escaping from high fence places. Our place is low fence. Some people don't like exotics and prefer native whitetail. I like 'em all, and I love the variety - even the...

Sika are cool little critters. They're like miniature elk. They're cousins to elk and red deer. They are free ranging in parts of the Texas Hill Country (along with axis, fallow, blackbuck, aoudad, mouflon, and some other exotics). We have a decent herd of sika on the ranch we hunt. We're...

Those are some serious brow tines.

I understand presentation, and I agree. I hate to see pics of nasty head shots, bloody animals not cleaned up, guts hanging out, etc. Shows a lack of respect for the animal. I don't see anything like that in this one, but that's just me. They weren't over the legal limit, and there's nothing...

Congrats! Looks like a lot of fun to me. I wonder what's "worse".... Killing 15/day one day, or killing 2/day every day for a week? ;)
