    Alaknak vs Tipi

    Over the last couple years we have been doing alot more moving throughout the hunt to either find game or stay on game. We have two wall tents now. I am thinking of getting something that is lighter and quicker to setup and take down until we get in an area where we will be long enough to setup...

    New Bacon Brine

    I tried the LEM Maple Bacon cure this year. I usually buy a few rupture pigs to mix in with my venison brats and hotdogs. This year there was enough to do some bacon. I like it meaty not fatty and this was perfect. We wound up sealing up 25 half pound bags. I added a 1/2 cup of homemade maple...

    Venison heart recipes

    My by far favorite is to pickle it in thin strips. I use mcormicks pickling spice and same recipe most people used for fish. There is something about the texture the stays fairly firm with the heart and I could sit there and eat the whole pale.

    .75 HP Grinder Recommendation - LEM #12 or Cabelas Carnivore?

    I use the heck out of my carnivore and have never had an issue. My friend has the #12 LEM and likes his just as much. He has all of the bells and whistles for his which maybe someone on here knows. Being that the cabelas .75 carnivore is a #12 will the attachments for LEM work on mine?

    Hunts to plan

    When my grandpa was younger he lived life to the fullest! He did a grand slam, shot a polar bear, has several goats, mountain lions and a full room of memories and mounts. Him and I were talking a couple weeks ago about his hunts and he said he couldn't remember but those were relativity...

    Truck camping - staying mobile?

    If the weather permits we put a wind blocker up and throw cots under the stars. If rain is expected we put up a tarp. Also helps to listen for bugles throughout the night as opposed to setting up our wall tents. We have been starting to look at a tipi tent to save space and setup time as well as...

    Budget trail cameras

    I have bought wildgame and had great luck. I recently bought a couple cheap tasco's for under 40 and they are 8MP and seem to take nice clear night and daytime pics. They only have a 5 sec delay as well.

    Hunts to plan

    With the price and points going up each year on elk I am starting to look into options of some other hunts to put on a buck list. Moose and Caribou are at the top of the list for me. The factors that I am finding is in the last few years the more reputable places are becoming fairly expensive...

    fresh venison tomahawks

    I froze them and then used a meat saw to go down the spine. I have never done this cut in the past but we have froze deer in the past and cut T-bones out.

    fresh venison tomahawks

    made these up for the first time this weekend. I shot a yearling doe and couldn't resist trying it. I used a prime rib rub I got from old southern smokehouse in hayward, WI and smoked them at 180 degree until they hit 140 degrees. I then made a butter garlic gravy I dipped them in and they...
