    Elk gurus, teach me......

    You sure remember them a lot more than a lot of the others. I had one where we spent 2 days packing a elk out and we said that we were never going back into that area. 3 or 4 years later we were packing 2 elk out of that same area. But then that is why a lot of hunters are successful and...

    Elk gurus, teach me......

    Also as soon as you hike into a area that you have no business being in or you start to second guess why you are there you will start to see elk. Then it is up to your better discretion if you pull the trigger or not. Me on the other hand would see a legal elk and pull the trigger. Then I...

    Cabin Build Delayed

    Looks like you have a lot of fish bait. I love doing projects to older homes/cabins. You never know what you are going to uncover. Last year I took a week long project and turned it into a couple of months when I found rotted framing lumber. Then this year I went to fix one electrical...

    The Thing People Don't Like To Talk About

    Well perhaps not everyone but there are a lot of them. When you are out camping in a tent or just off of the side of the road and out of your truck how do you handle your disposal of body fluids? Give me a break, I'm trying to be nice here........ Around 12 years ago we decided to find...

    Right now this rule only affects a few state wildlife areas and not the whole state. However I would like for it to go state wide and as was mentioned they may need to look at it a different way and not make people purchase a hunting/fishing license but perhaps a access permit. They already...

    Just saw this

    I saw that yesterday in a local newspaper. They are finally trying to get others to pay for what they use instead of having us license holders foot the whole bill for these areas. I'd like to see them do it to a lot more areas along with the hiking, and biking trails.

    Sometimes you have to look up instead of down all the time.

    If it has to do with the outdoors I'm doing it. I was also into building high performance VW engines in the 1600 class for quite a while. At one time a friend of mine and I were planning on entering the Mint 400 off road race in Nevada along with the Baja 1000. I was planning on building...

    New rifle

    I was just going to ask about the 130 grain bullets? That rifle does have a beautiful stock, it will be a shame when that first scratch is put into it but then it becomes a shooter.

    Covid-19 Effects on Fall 2020 Hunts

    I also think that the hunts will happen but groups of hunters may be smaller or non existence In my case my hunting partner is 79 years old with a heart condition and I am not a spring chicken anymore at 67. A lot of what we will do will depend on just what the recommendations are for our age...

    Ever use your snakeproof boots?

    Back in my working days I was a lineman for the phone company and wore high top climbing boots. One day I came down a pole and at the bottom of the pole I felt something hit my leg. I looked down and saw a piece of sagebrush move and then I felt it hit my leg again. I looked and saw about 8"...

    Australia Bowhunter Gored By Buffalo

    There is a good discussion going on about this on a African hunting forum. A lot of it revolves around not having a proper rifle of a large caliber with them as a backup.

    Grizzly / Wolf question

    The bigger problem as I see it is that the wolves that are being introduced into the lower 48 are different than the wolves that inhabited these areas before they were exterminated. The wolves that are here now from I understand are a larger and more aggressive wolf than those way back in the...
