    Sheep Show

    I did not, and honestly, not sure I really want to the more I learn/see. Maybe one day when I have more money, and alot more time on my hands

    Your hunting money

    Don't disagree at all. However, some wives are known to move the goal post from time to time based on kids, etc.. And then what about the young couple that didn't have much when they started. The eastern husband hunted deer from time to time around his hometown with his family. She knew that...

    Canceling a bighorn hunt in Alberta

    And nothing wrong with wanting to kill the target species. If you are a lower 48er, and it's your $50-60K that went into the outfitters pocket before your hunt started, going home empty handed and virtue signaling on this forum/social media about your "great experience" is not done as easy as...

    Tikka T3x vs. Christensen Arms Mesa

    If you were to start a thread about coolers on every forum, most people would say Coleman all the way. Why, because they are cheap, that's what most people have. Then in order to validate their decision as one of discernment rather than economy, they espouse it's virtues while also insinuating...

    UK Hunter planning trip of lifetime 2024/2025

    Hopefully your DSC 2 will work. I hear what you are saying on the experience vs being guided, but if you choose an outfitter that will take you into the backcountry on horseback or backpack, I think you will find it to be quite the adventure...one that you will never forget. As men, I'm sure...

    UK Hunter planning trip of lifetime 2024/2025

    First post huh, just joined today.....OK, I'll bite. Do you have a hunter's safety certificate issued by a US state? If not I don't see how you can get a hunting license. If that is the case you will likely need to go guided, and you may also need to go to British Columbia. They have good elk...

    25 creedmoor enough juice?

    Bingo! Heard of several "wounded" stones and dalls that were not recovered this year from my contacts at various outfitters in NWT and BC. Some were just bad shots, but some were due to wind drift from guys who are trying to be a little too cute with their caliber selection. So not only do you...

    CO OTC Elk 2023 Questions

    I'd be real careful about taking anyone's advice unless you know their background. I know someone who thinks he knows everything about elk and how to kill bulls because he watched a few videos on youtube one summer. He has been elk hunting a total of two times, skunked both times, but can tell...

    Tenmile Zero Stop

    I was able to get it by wrapping some electrical tape around the lower half of the elevation turret to secure it to the main scope tube to keep it from turning, then used channel locks to get the top cap off. Did take the paint off a few of the notches long the top edge of the turret, but I...

    Learning Mils - on SWFA

    Youtube The reality is you should be more worried about reading wind than dialing for elevation.

    The future of NR hunting in Wyoming

    Nah, its the fault of narcissistic people posting their grip n grins on Instagram and Facebook trying to show everyone how alpha they are. Also Joe Rogan, Cam Haines, etc....and all their flatbill, IPA drinking, "not looking for your honeyhole" followers who want to do something manly for once...

    Tenmile Zero Stop

    Anyone else have trouble getting the cap off the elevation turret? Have tried a few things with no luck....I really dont want to scratch it up with channel locks. Any ideas?

    If you were a NR starting from 0...

    If you can afford to pay, go guided on private land. You can hunt Montana every other year, New Mexico every year. Do OTC hunts in Colorado in between guided hunts if you feel like you need to struggle some. 😉

    How do you justify sheep hunting?

    The Fox & the Grapes A Fox one day spied a beautiful bunch of ripe grapes hanging from a vine trained along the branches of a tree. The grapes seemed ready to burst with juice, and the Fox's mouth watered as he gazed longingly at them. The bunch hung from a high branch, and the Fox had to jump...

    Efford's Hunting Adventures Lodge Hunt Experience

    Damn. Yeah it sounds like you were an afterthought. If killing the target species is #1, then getting the trophy (whether that be skull, antlers, meat, whatever) back home is certainly #2. Accommodations, food, people communicating, being "nice people"....all that is great, but is a very...
