    Lucky to be alive! Alaska Elk

    WyoArk, truly this question is out of pure curiosity and in absolutely no way is intended as some sort of criticism but.......Do you consider hunting ( or anything else for that matter ) in such demanding and unforgiving environments to be the province of adrenaline junkies? Thanks.

    Lucky to be alive! Alaska Elk

    Man, glad you made it out! Even for folks as thoroughly prepared and experienced as you guys were/are, those kinds of places, like the sea, are stunningly unforgiving and can kill you quick. Color me unadventurous if you will ( or just plain not enough guts! ), but even in my younger days I...

    I bought a diamondback spotter, did i mess up?

    Noted. Never hunted anything or anywhere that I would need big binocs. I was really just going off the fact that one could probably anchor a boat with the things!

    I bought a diamondback spotter, did i mess up?

    Beat me to it! This is PRECISELY what I purchased used ( for $350 no less ). Arrived in great shape. Use them at the range with a tabletop tripod to spot .223 bullet splatters on steel at 500 yards for scope adjustments. Very happy with them. They`re big and heavy, so for use for hunting you`d...

    Found rifle

    Turkey hunters are particularly bad about leaving/losing things. All the calls, strikers, etc lost every year could probably stock a nice sporting goods store.

    Found rifle

    Duck hunting in coastal Louisiana. Headed for the blind loaded down with gear, walking in. Tromped around in the muck and pond setting out decoys. Realized about an hour later, " I don`t have the car keys." Hunting buddy says, " You ARE s......g me, right? " Talk about a sick feeling! Sun comes...

    Found rifle

    Easier than one would think to leave something behind. Start loading a bunch of stuff into a vehicle at the end of a long day in the field or at the range, set that rifle on the side or an ammo box on the bumper ( ask me how I know about the ammo box! ).

    Advice on a scope upgrade for UL rifle

    Just curious. Should we presume that the Diamondback is not meeting your needs or has failed in some way? OR....do you just want to spend money? Not knocking that, by the way. I will say that personally I try to ascertain what I`ll be gaining with something new over what I have, particularly...

    How often do you find unrecovered animals?

    Time to leave this thread. All it does is make me angry. No offense to the OP.

    How often do you find unrecovered animals?

    That`s obscene! Glad you were able to get it out. After 10 days, wouldn`t it be spoiled?

    How often do you find unrecovered animals?

    Like I posted earlier, people in the woods with firearms that have absolutely no business being there. I swear I just think a lot of people just weren`t raised right!

    How often do you find unrecovered animals?

    Makes me think there`s a lot of folks out there " hunting " that shouldn`t be. And I feel bad when I can`t find a downed dove!

    Bataan Death March - Rucking Marathon

    When I was in elementary school in the 50`s, one of our teachers always wore sun glasses, even inside in the classroom. Being kids, we made fun of him behind his back. One day my dad, a Pacific WWII vet himself, took me aside and explained to me that our teacher had been taken prisoner by the...
