    Sheep judging tips and tactics

    I'd say he'll score pretty dang good. He carries his mass way out and has a big drop and flare shape which probably means he has a lot more length than it first appears. I'd be happy with that ram for sure :).

    Oregon Trying to Ban Hunting

    We are and Oregon Hunters Association is making sure to stay on top of this. Ballot measures (even ridiculous overreaching ones like this one) are always a little scary in OR due to the population dynamics (a couple cities out number the rest of the state).

    Living A Dream (again)!

    I didn't really measure it to closely so this is just a rough measurement, but we came up with 8.5 ft. actually I think 8'4". There again that's just a quick measurement we took while skinning the feet out. It looked big enough to me :) :)

    Living A Dream (again)!

    I took some time off work during the Spring Bear season and my wife and I were able to get a nice little bear here in OR. After processing it and getting it in the freezer, it was time to head to AK. I love AK and have had a lot of great hunting adventures there. But as an OR resident, AK law...

    Living A Dream (again)!

    I was able to make it up to AK and spend some great time with friends and family again this spring! I am so thankful for the opportunities I've had to experience hunts, that I thought would always just be dreams! 2021 Spring Grizzly

    Where would you move to if you had your choice of any western State to live in?

    I just returned from another spring bear hunt and each time I come back thinking I wish I would have spent at least a few years wondering around the great state of AK.

    Where would you move to if you had your choice of any western State to live in?

    Both Wyoming and Montana seem like great places to live from a resident hunter standpoint. Sounds fun, good luck!

    Dang Birds!!

    Around here the hens are running off to lay mid morning and coming back off about 3:00 pm give or take an hour or so. Some may be just starting to set. I do better on birds around 10 to 4. If you can find a gobbler or 2 that went to roost without hens they will come in first thing sometimes too...

    2021 OR Season

    I was able to tag my 3rd Gobbler for the 2021 season. He was a wary old bird, but after a few hours and a couple moves, he finally made a mistake and showed himself. It was a great season with lots of action. Probably the earliest I was able to tag out, especially considering they've upped our...

    Merriams and Rio’s

    I think the Merriams have a much more pronounced color line on the tail. The white barring on the primary and secondary feathers is really clear. The Rios have a more cream colored (primary) tail and secondary feather color barring that seems to blend together with less pronounced lines. Not...

    2021 OR Season

    Lucked into another nice bird this morning up in the big timber. He has some interesting coloration in his tail fan. I'd call this one a Rio or at least partly.
