    2023 Whitetail Meat Pole

    Unfortunately on the army base you have to check them in on the scale to collect for full body weight. You can gut them and that’s it.

    2023 Whitetail Meat Pole

    Got lucky on this coues in the southern Arizona wind this morning. Shot him right under 500 yards across a canyon, my longest shot ever on deer. Heck of a solo pack out.

    2023 Blacktail Success Thread

    Here’s my two from Alaska this last week. These were my first two black tails ever and I’m super pumped about both of them.

    Fierce Twisted Rival

    I figured it’s been long enough that I actually have some time behind the gun on the range and on hunting trips that I can give an honest update on my thoughts on this rifle. First thing I have to say is it’s easy to carry even with the long barrel. Accuracy has been right inline with what I...

    Area 24 New Mexico Burro Mountain December Rifle tag 2022 and Fort Huachuca Coues

    I know this is an old thread but I drew the November Ft huachuca coues tag. I’m also retired army and my father in law lives just outside the gate. I scouted all last weekend and saw probably 15-20 different groups of does but not a single buck. I’m guessing it was too hot and a full moon so...

    2022 Coues Whitetail Meat Pole

    My 2022 Coues buck a little 2x3 with eye guards that came in right at the 90" mark. I drew a 2023 Arizona rifle tag for the week of Thanksgiving and will be going to Mexico in January for another rifle hunt. Hoping to reach that magical 100" mark this year.

    $5k - $6k for a hunt….where would you go, what would you hunt?

    I second this one. I go every year in January with a few buddies. The sheer number of deer we see is unmatched and it's been a blast every time. The outfitter we use does DIY hunts down there for under 4K. That covers a week's worth of food with, all the permitting for weapons and tags, and...

    SE Alaska Sitka Deer Hunting, By Jeff Lund

    Thanks for posting. I'm going back to SE Alaska in a few weeks for 10 days to deer hunt. I've only bear hunted there and I'm sure the deer hunting is very different. I'm trying to consume as much deer hunting info as possible between now and then. One thing I learned is to take some back up rain...

    Stalking shoes/booties

    Not sure what unit you’re in in AZ but that looks a whole lot like the buck I missed in 24B last weekend. Congrats on a great AZ mulie

    Thoughts on Kuiu Pro vs Mystery Ranch?

    This might be a dumb question but can I fit a Kuiu pack on a mystery ranch frame?

    Trijicon Credo HX 1-8x28 on a 375 H&H

    I wanted to jump in here with a question of my own if that’s cool. I’ve used a lot of Trijicon optics over the years for both hunting and military applications and have been happy with them. I’m looking at the same optic for my Sig cross in .308 because I don’t shoot long range and only need...

    Fierce Twisted Rival

    I’ve been traveling for a while and haven’t had the chance to shoot yet. All I can tell you guys is weight, feel, and trigger pull all are exactly what I was looking for. I’ve been grabbing different ammo as I can find it so I have a few options to see what shoot best. I’m about two weeks out...

    Fierce Twisted Rival

    I chose that because it was the only thing I could find in stock to fit this rifle and I’m not very patient.
