This is a question totally unrelated to hunting but is anyone who uses Google Chrome having problems with it the last couple of days? Today it will not even connect for me.

My son has a bull elk rifle tag and is leaning towards using my wife's .270 instead of my 7mm Mag because mine almost always whacks him over his eye. Anyway he bought a box of Federal Fusion 150 grain bullets and a box of Federal Trophy Bonded Tip ammo in 130 grain. Both group very well in that...

What do you guys use on your boots? I have used Snow Seal, Mink Oil, and the spray on silicone products. To me so far they seem about the same for water resistance. I find the silicone spray the easiest, but the leather looks so dry it makes me think it's gonna be like a sponge. The other 2 at...

How do I rotate a picture that I have attatched? In my computer I have them rotated correctly but when I attatch them they still come out sideways. Any advice?

My son and I went out for a couple of days for his archery hunt in area 271-272. He didn't have much time due to work. The temp was around 100- 105 during mid day almost unbearable. Saw some nice country, very few tracks and only found the smallest trickle of water, a puddle maybe 6 inches long...

You guys remember these? I've had them sitting in my closet since 1996 when I got my bull elk tag in NV. I was shocked when I saw what the price was. Back then this was one of the few factory loads using premium bullets. The price was $19.69. At the time I was buying ammo for my 7mm Mag for...

I got out my dad's old manual meat grinder powered by "armstrong" to try out because I've never used it. I was surprised how easy it was, I thought I would be turning the crank with all my strength. I'll be using it quite often now that I know. I ground about 5lbs of elk shoulder and 1lb of pork...

Thought you guys might like to see my wife's pistol that we keep bedside for protection. We bought this way back in 1983 it's a Colt Trooper MKIII Nickel plated in 357 Mag. She is quite proficient with it. Back when we bought it she wasn't familiar with guns so I chose a revolver because I...

I just bought my son a packframe from this company too. It is the "Commander" model. Looks very well made and very adjustable. It has a couple of small pockets and a rifle carrier. Hopefully we will be using it this year to pack out his bull elk.

Got a picture of "Bigfoot" near Donner Lake a couple of weeks ago.

Anybody have pics of their rig being stuck? Here is a bad pic on my first pick-up stuck miles south of Harrison Pass in the Ruby mountains of Nevada. If I had a high-lift jack we probably could have gotten ourselves out, but I didn't have one yet. Had three guys stop and try to pull us out to no...

Just got back from the Reno/Tahoe area and was shocked at how the Truckee river is almost gone. We were there last July and there was still enough water to fish. On the drive up I 80 between Verdi and Truckee the river is just a trickle. I certainly hope this drought doesn't last much longer.

Just got back from Reno/Tahoe. Family had a pretty good time since we only had to spend 2 days with the in-laws during the week we were there. My daughter decided she wanted to eat some crayfish since we always see them in Lake Tahoe every time we go there. We caught about 25 of them in about an...

That goes to show you that not applying for those "primo" units can be a good thing. This bull that my bro got in AZ came fron a unit that is listed as "limited opportunity" because there are so few elk and is an area not many people want to hunt, it's also bull or cow. It is directly across the...

Made some red chili using some shoulder from the cow elk I got last winter. Some of you guys might think it's strange to use potatoes but my wife and I like them in our chili.

I just noticed that oakielite was banned. I for one will not miss him, most of his replies were argumentive regardless of what the subject was. Thank you to the moderators! :)

It's been probably 30 years since we were able to have a buck and a doe tag here in NV. For a while we had a pretty good deer population. Those were the good old days.

072 a great area and scouting the terrain will be worth your time. Some of that country is very rugged and will be one heck of a pack out with a bull.

I'm selling my old Airstream trailer that we used for hunting. It needs restoration. Appliances do not work. No toilet. It has bunk beds 2 large/2 small. It is towable, tires are in good condition. It has ONLY turn signals and brake lights. Would be a good restoration project but I don't have...
