Quite a few years ago I bought a used Savage 110 in .30/06 for cheap. I think Savage rifles are really accurate out of the box and if I was buying a new rifle, that's the brand I'd buy, but this used gun was very inaccurate from the first time I shot it. I don't know if it's worn out or if it...

Here's an article http://www.aspendailynews.com/section/home/173537 about a public educational presentation to get people to lobby for the reintroduction of wolves in Colorado and spread the word. The logic is...well, read it for yourselves.

I just bought a CVA Accura v2 muzzleloader with the Bergara nitride barrel and am thinking about putting on a better sight than the standard post. I saw a Lyman globe sight with a Lee Shaver crosshair insert...

“Peace on Earth, goodwill toward men on whom his favor rests.” Those were the words the multitude of angels spoke to the shepherds – heaven’s first public words at the birth of Jesus. Though modern Christmas is a lot about family and gifts, at its core, Christmas is about reconciliation. This...

It’s the day before Thanksgiving, and while a lot of people are on the road going to see family, I am on my way to a funeral. It’s for one of the finest, faith-filled men I ever knew, a man in his early 40s that leaves behind six children and a stunned wife. He had a body-builder’s physique but...

I drove my truck out from NC to hunt antelope near Thermopolis and yesterday, the first day, my timing belt broke and ruined my engine. It will take a few days to get a new one and I am sitting in my motel instead of hunting. Does anyone know someone near here that might let me borrow or rent a...

The story on my BC mountain goat is in this new issue of Eastmans' Hunting Journal, pg. 82. I had posted a mention of my goat hunt in an earlier post and said the story would be coming shortly, so there it is. I also wrote an article for the last 6 pages of the issue called In Defense of...

I've been toying with the idea of getting 15x binos but they're too shaky apart from a tripod so I'd have to carry two binos, one of which would be pretty heavy and so I thought I'd just stick with my Dialyt spotter. So when I read Dan Turvey's E-News review earlier this week on the new SIG...

I'll be hunting on this tag for the first time and probably hunting by myself. Wondering if anyone else on here will be there 3rd season so I can keep in touch and maybe stop by with a beer. You can send me a PM if you prefer.

My wife is going antelope hunting with me in late October in Wyoming this year. It is her first time to go so she has no hunting clothing yet other than good hiking boots. I've already gotten her a hat, gloves, merino neck gaiter and base layer, so I'm looking for help on mid and outer layer...

Selling my 2011 Elite Pulse bow with 29" draw length 50-60# in snow camo riser and black limbs. Practically new, because I had the limbs, string, cables, whisker biscuit and quiver replaced last year, then unexpectedly received a new carbon bow this year. ISO rated at 329-332 fps. Smotth draw...

Why do you trophy hunt? That is, if you do concentrate on getting the biggest bull or buck you can find. Is it competitive spirit? Taking hunting to a higher level, taxing your body and honing your skills? Is it pride in outsmarting the best buck on the mountain? What makes trophy hunting...

Saw the quote at the bottom in the WSJ this morning, referring to the Memorial Day weekend just ahead. A man who will not fight for anything is not a man. Today, we are having to fight for things we used to take for granted. But the biggest thanks goes to those willing to put their lives at...

Anyone have experience hunting deer in unit 35 2nd or 3rd season? It's a good unit if you don't mind sharing it with 650 deer and elk hunters in only 268 sq miles. Not sure how you hunt it with that many guys running around.
