Thank you! Been having a hard time transiting to the web forum compared to Tapatalk 😂

My husband has had a great season so far. We hunted both Idaho archery and Montana with a rifle this year and he took his two largest bulls to date. Both Bulls were taken in OTC units. Feeling very blessed this year

Im curious to see if anyone elses plans are going to be affected by the new changes done to the 900 series either sex antelope archery permit being listed as a first and only choice in the draw. I know myself I always counted on drawing the 900 tag as a second choice if I didnt draw my first...

Anybody purchase one of the new Zeiss Gavia spotters? In in the market to purchase a new spotter and my budget will be somewhere around $2,000. I've really liked the Conquest Binoculars and think the spotting scope will be a good complement. Any other recommendations or thoughts on the Gavia...

As the Montana season comes to a close this weekend, I can't help reflect on our past season. Opening weekend we hunted close to home helping my brother get his first elk ever. The next weekend we turned around and headed south of the state for 16 days into a new area that we've been studying...

I have found a lot of reward to process all the animals we harvested myself and I find the entire process fun. However I have never ventured to far off the beaten path with trying to do my own sausage, snack sticks, thuringer, etc. well this year I tried to make breakfast sausage with one of our...

Three years ago I had a Browning X-Bolt Varmint Special chambered in a .308 custom ordered with a laminate stock from their company. I have maybe 30 rounds through the gun and went to consign it at a local shop to try and sell. After they inspected it, they found that the stock had split all...

I'm starting to do some research now about this topic especially since a lot of states are allowing supressors to be used for hunting, so I am curious to see if this has persuaded you guys to own one? In my home state of Montana I believe that it will be legal to hunt with one in the 2016 season...

Anybody own a newcon optik rangefinder? They seem to be extremely price competitive compared their counterparts. http://www.newcon-optik.com/laser.html A co-worker of mine bought the 1500 and I got a chance to mess around with it. I was pretty impressed for a $300 rangefinder on how well it...

I'm really hoping someone else has this problem but every hunting season we struggle to find the best over the calf sock for my husband who has very muscular calves. He wears a size 13 shoe and every sock we've bought him (both in his size range and bigger) have been way too tight. Cabelas brand...

Just checked the mail today to see that my husband drew a special permit on red rock lakes national wildlife refuge for the last day allowed. The hunt allows 1 hunter per day to harvest an elk in a special no hunt zone. Does anyone have any general insight on this? We're making the one day trip...

Hi guys I'm looking for a little bit of feedback regarding deer & elk districts 300/302 and 329/331/332. I am extremely familiar with the areas in the Dillon area that are on the "left side" of of the highway inbetween Dillon and Lima, MT (sage creek, blacktail, & sweetwater). Our group this...

Here is another crazy big mule deer. Not sure what the story is behind this guy but it was pretty cool to hold him!

Just wondering if anyone has tried smoking anything with deer or elk. Just bought a smoker and I want to test it out. I'm going to smoke some pulled pork this weekend and want to try an elk or deer next. What recipes and cuts of meat do you use to smoke both species? I'm very new to using a...

Later this winter I am looking at purchasing my first game camera and I was wondering which cameras are your favorites and why. I am looking to spend around $200 per camera. Is it worth spending the extra money for a camera that takes pictures at a higher mega pixel? Or is the ability to take...

My name is Jordan and I am new to the Eastman's forum! I am a senior graduating this spring from the University of Montana with a business-marketing degree. I've started hunting a little later in my youth and really started becoming more involved with the outdoors the last three years. My...
