    Rain jacket

    Check out Bass Pro for a set of rain gear for boats. It is cheaper than most and will work. Just don't expect it to last if you are hiking through brush. You may even have to spray it down a few times with some silicone waterproofing to keep it viable.

    Utah draw results

    I've got 25 bison points and I refuse to do a cow hunt after this many years of putting in. It is a hunters choice hunt or nothing. Yep, I get that general deer license for free but have to apply as a non resident for any LE or OIL hunts. I do agree that it has paid for itself. Not just in...

    El Serio If I would of known that I would of been looking for a job a couple of months later I doubt that I would of bought one. Those first few months in a new state along with a divorce a year earlier came close to bankrupting me. If it wasn't for fishing and rabbit hunting here in...

    Utah draw results

    When I bought my LL clear back in 1987 the Utah combination license for small game, fishing and a deer tag was around $34. I figured that it would take me 15 years to break even. Even in 1987 my LL number is below 300 and people could purchase them for a few years. But at that time $500 was...

    Utah draw results

    That's me, I am so far into it that the odds should be tipping in my favor sooner than later. I just hope that I can hunt from a motorized wheelchair when I finally draw my bison tag. I have a lifetime hunting license for deer and small game so I'll be chasing deer with my muzzle loader east...

    CC Hits are Happening For Utah

    Congrats on the tag, while the Henry's are not what they were a couple of years ago they still provide a fantastic hunt. If you need any information on them let me know. It's been a long time since I hunted deer down there but I may be able to help out.

    What's everyone up to?

    I am going to substitute a warthog for a javelina and perhaps a brush buck for the coues. The nice thing about South Africa at this time of year is that they are going into their Fall weather pattern when we are going into summer. So it should be quite nice down there.

    Damn Weather

    I got out at 7am and was able to run 40 rounds through 2 rifles off of shooting sticks before the wind hit at 8:30. It was interesting in that I shot my .340 Weatherby better than I did my .25-06, but since I am taking my .340 it doesn't matter. Hopefully the winds will calm down some this...

    It's calm enough right now to go shooting but the sun would be in my eyes.

    CC Hits are Happening For Utah

    The big problem with Utah's draw is that even after a week you can still be in the running. I always tell people that they have a chance until they get that email telling them one way or another. I even had one friend get the email telling him that he drew a tag before the CC charge went...

    Damn Weather

    Got up this morning to 40 mph winds, my chimes were going crazy. Friday is the day. My truck is packed with all I need except for my rifles. I'm going to put the muzzle brake onto my .340 Weatherby and run 20 or so rounds through it. While it is cooling off I'll be taking my .25-06 to get...
