    10x vs 12x binos

    I like 10s. 12s just feel too shaky for me the way I glass. 12s do give you better detail at a little longer distance though.

    Harvest Data report

    Imo, the best way to gauge herd status/population is to wait to see the quotas. If you see tag numbers trending down by a percentage, it is likely the herd was that much smaller than the previous year on the winter range. I received a survey this year for 2 of my 3 tags - above what I have...

    How many of you will get the Covid shot?

    My mom's doctor has advised her not to get the vaccine right now. She had Covid in October. He said her antibodies should carry her through the next several months with no problems. He did say she should plan on getting the vaccine before next fall.

    I really think any of you that used to be a fan of the old Cabela's would really like the Scheel's business model. I have always had very good service from very knowledgeable people. The do cater to more than just outdoor recreation but every one I have been in has great hunting, fishing, &...

    I have seen the elk track version of these. Would be pretty fun to mess with guys around camp or around their vehicle.

    Bulls Taken in 2020 with what bullet and caliber combos?

    [QUOTE="Montana, post: 298624, member: 1826" Would love to see the 7x7 in a year or two. He looks to have the potential to be a great bull. A couple others, if given time, might get to that 350 mark. Can you get that tag regularly?

    How many of you will get the Covid shot?

    Not sure what the right answer is but I think we can likely all agree that the bleeding needs to stop... and our charity to other countries should be suspended until we are in a much stronger position.

    Stepping my game up

    Fittohunt, I would caution you on the guided hunts. There is a fair chance that you will end up with a guide with about the same experience as you unless you really do your research. I was hired as a guide when I was 19. I had shot 6 elk in my life- 5 with a rifle and one with a bow. I did...

    That's really too bad. I'm hoping Scheels doesn't go this route as they are my current go to for a brick and mortar.

    2021 Wyoming Antelope help

    One other item to note, when you hunt can really impact the number of antelope you see. It is popular with many on this site to wait until 2-3 weeks into the season to avoid hunting pressure. In some areas, this means the majority of the antelope have been pushed to private or in some...

    2021 Wyoming Antelope help

    Still plenty of areas with antelope. Numbers are down in some areas but plenty of good hunts out there. I do agree it would be best to wait until spring to see how numbers look.

    What is this rock??

    Could be a meteorite. Check the sensitivity settings on your detector. Any object showing paramagnetism should have enough metal in it to make your detector go off. It look like this?
