    Broken Stuff

    Saw my surgeon l this week and he said I am good to go. Start walking longer and just be a little careful on uneven surfaces for a couple of months. I will be using walking sticks for awhile on my walks. I'll be ready for 4th season with my elk tag in hand!

    6.5 and 7 PRC, what are your thoughts?

    I bought my son his first big game rifle in 1977 when he was 12. I bought a Remington 600 in .243. He still has it and still shoots well. If I was buying a kid their first big game rifle today, I probably would buy exactly what Hilltop did. It probably will do everything needed to take almost...

    Secondary Draw for Big Game Tags

    I have a handful of units that I have researched and hunted that are not generally very popular for various reasons. When I don't draw or just want points, I go to them and look to see if there are any available as left overs or secondary draw. This year I put in for 4 different tags for elk in...

    6.5 and 7 PRC, what are your thoughts?

    I have one (a Leupold) and I like it, BUT in my opinion it's not a hunting scope. I bought it for my 25-06 and it was great at lower powers. I was using it on an antelope hunt and was looking across a big area at some goats about a 1/2 mile away. I had it set at 18x. Forgot to turn it back to...

    6.5 and 7 PRC, what are your thoughts?

    I have 3 big game calibers 25-06, 30-06 & .300 Wby. I hand load for everything, Havn't shot factory loads since the 1950"s. My .25 is for antelope, hogs and deer. My .300 Wby is for elk and anything larger. My 30-06 is my backup. All shoot less than moa groups. Don't know what I would use...

    Area 93 antelope

    Deer and elk don't open until Oct 1 or later. You really have plenty of time to get your goat before they open.

    Wyoming Corner Crossing Appeal Higher Court

    If this case is lost (again) on appeal, bet it goes all the way to the US Supreme Court as the landowner obviously has very deep pockets!

    2023 FISHING THREAD

    I am probably going to replace the sonar fish finder. It has a Humminbird Wide Field. The problem is that it is really hard to read the screen when the sun shines on it. I also would like a color screen and as simple as possible operation. Small size and less than $500. Any recommendations?

    2023 FISHING THREAD

    Finally got my new boat in the water for a shake down yesterday. After I got it out of my storage cover, I had to de-winterize it. I checked all the engine and outdrive vitals. Charged the battery and checked all the safety equipment. I also moved and rewired the sonar fishfinder. Went to our...

    unit 65 antelope wyo

    I have hunted it many years ago and OOBUCK is spot on. The only concern I would have is winter kill. Some of the units close to 65 had a bunch and populations could be lower than normal. Good luck.

    Cortez (my closest town) has 3 stations that have ethanol free gas. I do use it in my boat.

    Secondary Draw for Big Game Tags

    Yep. All of the units I applied for (except for 1) had 4 or less tags. One of the elk units that I have hunted several times always has left over tags. It is a migratory unit and needs some snow to push the animals into the area.

    Secondary Draw for Big Game Tags

    I found some deer and elk units that I have experience hunting in, so I applied for 2 deer and 4 elk units. Hope I draw one.

    Social Media

    I am on Facebook. Except for the stupid ads, I keep in touch with a lot of friends, relatives and former classmates and people I worked with. There are a few shooting webpages I look at and comment on, but that's it.

    FL tag app time

    I spent a lot of time in Fl in the 70's working on the Shuttle program. Lots of gators and turkeys and a few hogs , but working 7 days a week leaves little time for much else. When I did have a day off here and there, I went fishing and diving.
