    Idaho Spring Bear Camp

    Hannibal, Good on you for seeing a need and focusing the enthusiasm of newbies towards a goal in a "manageable" way. I am a lifelong hunter but I am hunting bear for the first time. I agree with other posters that Spring Bear brings new challenges where NOT all of the western hunting...

    E-Scouting Bears

    I appreciate your insight. Having scouted hells canyon before I think there’s some cross over with Western MT. I have a SW Idaho tag for bear, and I was offered a loaner .338 ultra mag for spring bear. It will extend my range (325yards with a .308) to 400 yards. Do you think that’s valuable? I...

    First time buying a new bow in 14 years (VXR 31.5)

    Billy Goat I appreciate it. I’m planning to take one trip every other week (approx) to the bow range to paper it just to make sure I don’t have drift in the first 500 shots. I have a range at home, but getting out and changing the lighting, Noise, and targets has proven useful in the past.

    First time buying a new bow in 14 years (VXR 31.5)

    I cut it close by changing bows in late July for a September hunt. Besides shooting 20-30 arrows a day is there any break in y’all are doing for your VXR? I’ve been shooting a Hoyt Ultramag xt for the last 5 years. It’s been 2.5” short for my draw so I’m in hog heaven with a bow that fits...

    Idaho Mule Deer Winter Kill

    12 days in the field throughout 22 we saw 25 does and no bucks. The elk were GHOSTS, no calling, no feeding and plenty of sign. I think between the wolves and the winter they're not doing well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What would you do!!

    Let me start off with this: the way you did it was the way that worked for you. The rest of this is just development! Rear quarters, separate the head, see if you can get the front shoulders uphill (preferably over that lip) and then see what the chest is looking like. The lung blood can tell...

    HELP! Idaho Unit 22 Archery Elk

    Been hunting 22 this week and we haven't heard ANYTHING! Got a shot at a lone spike that didn't call back, didn't come to calls. Nothin. We braved the snow and rain the last two days and hoping it heats up this week. There hasn't been nearly the hunting pressure there was last year, but the...
