Hey all,
I still consider myself fairly new to reloading (~4 years). I’ve seen this line on my brass after resizing and was wanting to get your thoughts on what is causing it and if it’s an issue. I have a few friends that I go to for reloading questions but they are split with the answers...
A little of both. It depends on the area or time. If I'm in a new area and not sure what's around, I tend to glass for a while then move and glass more. If I'm in a regular area and know a bit about how the bears are acting then I'll glass it until I find what I'm looking for.
For spring season, hunt all day, slow down, and glass hard. I had always been told to only hunt the evenings. My first year I killed a small bear 30 minutes after first light (I was so excited and she was so pretty I couldn't stand it!). That afternoon I glassed more just to learn the area and...
I did a little over a year when I was a kid. My family bought a property in the Sierras of CA when I was in 8th grade. We built the house (we built the two I grew up in and my brother's house) and Dad gave my brother and I his wall tent to stay in while we were building. My folks bought a...
I've only had mine a year so can't really speak to long term durability. But I can say that so far it's the best pack I've ever owned. I previously had two eberlestocks and a horn hunter. I was happy to get rid of them after a few seasons. I'd fight you for my exo!!
I'm going to agree with GotDraw?. I have seen the OP post questions about this situation for a bit on FB pages and seeking help. True, it is unfortunate this is his first post here. But I will also thank him for trying to spread the word about his experience.
I was planning on leaving may 15th but delayed a week due to HEAVY rains. I was at 5300' and shouldn't have had a problem. One thing I used a lot being out of state was the road cameras. They say the elevations on them and have the image updated multiple times a day. I've called the forest...
I did Idaho this year and had a blast! I will definitely be going back. I'd be really interested in montana or another state as well. This year in idaho I had a basecamp at the truck and then hiked out into roadless areas from there for spot and stalk.
I've only seriously hunted bears for one year now. I killed my bear in Idaho this spring at 0730. The next day we were making coffee in camp and I spotted a big blonde right below is. But working in the woods the last few years I feel like I see a lot in the afternoon. I think bears are out when...
