    So I watched a you tube video the other night.......

    Very interesting response from the GW. As far as the video goes: It seems like a pretty standard old fashioned shit show...reminding me of why I prefer to archery hunt.

    2021 Turkey plans

    Tough hunting Saturday and Sunday. High winds, cool temperatures. Didn't even hear a bird Saturday. Sunday I heard a bird and tried to close the distance but he only gobbled three times on the roost. Sat there until 11:00 waiting him out to try and relocate him then threw in the towel. The wind...

    Guided Cow Elk Hunt?

    I used to know a guy who did Cow hunts for $500 in NM. I will see if I can scrounge up his info but that was many years back. They are likely more expensive now. No promises.

    New Electric Endurance Beta Truck

    Comparing the diesels of yesterday (The trusty 7.3) to the diesels of today is not a realistic comparison. lol 4 reasons I would not advise a newer diesel: -DPF -DEF -EGR -SCR

    So I watched a you tube video the other night.......

    Maybe he wasn't going to shoot from the ridgeline? Maybe he was just glassing from there and was planning on moving around to take the shot from the correct unit? I presume a lot of people glass across unit boundaries for vantage purposes. Hunter and the game BOTH need to be in the same unit...

    New Electric Endurance Beta Truck

    ^^^ After my entire family has went through the diesel 3/4 Ton route (Ford, Chevy, Ram) I would not recommend going with a diesel. Going gas is a smart decision...OR buy a used diesel with low mileage and give it an immediate hysterectomy if you dont have emissions where you live. If I get...

    2 Days

    I would not consider myself a HC mule deer hunter at this point in my life but I would say in a good area a good hunter has about a 3%-7% chance in 2 days. Thats if they had scouted and knew where the deer were at and they didn't have super high expectations. If you had done no scouting and were...

    Apps Are In

    Points for me this season. Need to get on that pretty soon. I normally wait until a couple days before the deadline to do it though. Just in case something else falls through.

    Hunting Bears With Hounds In Montana?

    It will definitely help hunters be more selective which can be a double edged sword when it comes to black bears.

    Always check your trailers safty chains!

    I dont know how it all went down for this guy but I do know that I weld the nut onto the bottom of all of my personal trailer hitches. About 15 years ago I was driving down the road with a buddy who was pulling a stump-grinder behind his truck and the nut came off the ball while we were...

    Fair Chase?

    When I was a teenager I pinwheeled the principal with a snowball from about 30 yards. Hit him right in the head...and the one kid that saw me do it ratted on me. I got beaten half to death by that principle with a huge wooden paddle... Literally I had black legs for a month....It hurt like hell...

    Fair Chase?

    I know the feeling. At PSU I went through all of the upper level math courses and then onto Integral Vector Calculus, Differential Equations, and Wave Motion Quantum Physics. All with no calculator. The classes were taught by people who could barely speak a lick of English and math was their...

    Fair Chase?

    Was it uphill both ways to school? haha Thats my favorite quote from a guy I used to hunt with. "Got up, checked traps, milked the cows, cleaned the barn, then walked to school there was rain, snow, and it was uphill both ways" he used to say. Always made me laugh. He was tougher than an ax...
