    Big city living

    Orlando is THE WORST place to live in Florida. Why would you move to a peninsula (Florida) where it is hot as Hades 10 months out of the year, choose to not live on the coast where the offshore breezes and saltwater is, and then also choose the biggest most populous of the landlocked places...

    Wyoming Rep. John Winter suggested commissioning a helicopter crew to gun down overpopulated elk herds

    Someone might need to file a hurt feelings report. Google image that.... Farmers could cash in on this, but I guess they dont want to have to deal with the public or the liability....

    Big city living

    How easy is it to make $100K/year when you live in a rural area? How about $150K/year? How about $200K/year? etc. Most people living in the cities are not there because they like having millions of people on top of them. They are there to make money. You know all those left coast and NY...

    How much to tip your hunting guide?

    A $5K elk hunt where one guide leads you around the mountains for a week has very little in common to a sheep hunt up north (dall/stone/bighorn) where you are supported by all kinds of people and logistics...as an example, the bush pilot who flew you into a remote spot and then came and got your...

    Is the future of hunting all doom and gloom?

    The last days of big game hunting will take place on private land. The hunters will be the landowners, and their family and friends. If you want to ensure a future of hunting for yourself and your descendants, I would save up and buy some private land wherever you can afford it, and as much as...

    WTS Barrett Fieldcraft with Swarovski

    Lots of brainwashed folks on here who think scopes have to be NF, SWFA, or Trijicon to be used away from a bench. Slick rifle. Good luck with sale

    Best Dall Sheep Outfitters?

    Not sure if dall prices are going up, or if this winning bidder was just being generous for a good cause, but this got my attention today

    CO Sheep guide needed.

    Yep. The responses about not needing a guide are from the typical crowd. I know lots of people who go on guided hunts, and most don't worry about what other people think, especially people on a internet forum. They are out living their life every day and doing real stuff. 'Travel and tell...

    Montana K Bar L Ranch Experience?

    Nice man. I had never heard of them before. When I saw $6K for an elk hunt I raised my eyebrows because I thought ranch hunts are going for close to $15K these days in MT, but in looking closer at their website, it looks like you stay at the ranch which is on private, but you ride into "the Bob"...

    Optic advice

    Your current setup seems perfect for a backpacker, especially a sheep hunter. Where do you feel you have gaps? What is your typical application?

    CO Sheep guide needed.

    How many days should it take someone in your opinion to fill a ewe tag? Backcountry ninja vs. out of state googan? 1 day for the ninja and a week for the googan?

    Consolidated Dictionary & Guidelines for Backcountry Hunter dialect

    I always thought a growler was when you blast a 4 inch gator tail of Columbian bam-bam off of a strippers butt in Vegas. Now as for going #2, I call that a knee-knocker, or baptizing a blind seal, or taking the browns to the superbowl.

    Maven b6 vs GPO HD vs Leupold BX5 Santiam 10 x 50

    I really like the specs on GPO, but I just can't bring myself to buy a product called "GERMAN precision optics", that is made in JAPAN. If they called themselves anything else, Samurai Optics, Daniel Son, Wax on Wax Off, I'd be a buyer.....are they that stupid, or do they think the market is? I...

    Reliable stone sheep pricing

    This may sound harsh, and please don't take this personally, because anytime anyone on here posts a question asking how much a sheep hunt is I think the same thing as I do right now.......If you were serious about going on a stone hunt, you would already know the answers to these questions...

    Reliable stone sheep pricing

    I talked to an outfitter in BC the other day. He is charging in the upper 60s to book right now, but he did sell a hunt to someone at a show recently for $100K. Can't fault him for that. Outfitters are running a business, not saving the manatees.
