    Wyoming question...

    Typically whole deer (ungutted) are not weighed much, at least around here in SW Colorado. I hunt Wyoming a lot too and have never seen it. Normally the first thing everyone does id gut the animal. This helps get blood, damaged tissues and innerds out, whivh IMHO keeps the meat from being...

    Wyoming question...

    Did you weight him? If so "in the round" or field dressed?

    Ammunition shortage

    My son owns his own trucking business and he hauls ammunition & components a lot. He says the mfgs are going 24/7 and still can't fill all the demand. The government agencies are buying a lot too. I guess eventually they will catch up, just don't hold your breath until they do!

    Wyoming 1990

    I miss hunting with my Dad a lot. He raised me with values that have served me well all my life, I hope I have done the same with my son. Dad's last big game hunt was with me here in Colorado in 2008 when he was 90. He got a bull elk that made me really happy....and him too. Lost him in 2012.

    Thinking about a new hunting rig

    Makes sense if you are going to hunt in Afganistan or Pakistan for sheep or Ibex. My wife would probably not like it much, for sure!

    Ammunition shortage

    I reload everything except rimfire. I shot a lot (Cowboy Action & BullesEye Pistol) and also practice. I have enough reloading components to last several years. I learned several years ago when a shortage happened and keep plenty of supplies on hand.

    Already a shed?

    Every buck I've seen that had antler problems due to testicular problems always was in the velvet. They never shed the velvet and the horns were deformed too.

    Warmest socks or boots for cold weather sits

    I use the booties over my regular insulated boots when I'm in the goose blind. The work great. They are light weight and waterproof. I also have a pair of battery powered heated sox. Mine are pretty old, but still work. The only thing that I have a problem with is that they use a D battery...

    Our shooting club has an old mount (circa 1909) in our club room. It was shot locally and given to the club several years ago. It has tremendous mass and great eye guards. We even have the tag , it is metal, but most of the writing/printing is illegible.

    new Savage rifles

    .308, .6.5 Creedmore & .300 wssm The only commonality is that they all are short length so they can use the short action, saving weight.

    new Savage rifles

    The only thing wrong is the lack of choice on calibers, only 3 to choose from.

    First Timer

    Everyone here has their own favorite states and favorite species they hunt. Browse the different states and get an sense of where and what you want to hunt. My advice to a first timer would be Wyoming and antelope. Wyoming is pretty generous with tags, there is lots of public land and tags are...

    Thank you Veterans

    When I was in the Army in 1963/65, it was pretty grim if you wore your uniform when travel. Lots of crappy comments and looks.
