I've never been on a forum as edgy as rokslide. Every time I post a question trying to learn and understand something, none of the responses actually help.
That says that it has one, but really doesn't explain why. Straight/inline with bore has always been standard for precision. I get that it kind of moves away from you with recoil, but I can't imagine there's any consistency there.
I already have onx elite, use it a lot for all the eastern states where I hunt public. Been scouring it every day while looking at units. My buddy and I already decided we are going. Just trying to pick a unit now.
Thanks. Guess I'll try to apply for some stuff next year. It's so weird, I've probably watched thousands of hunts, read as many articles, and as of more recent years listened to quite a few podcasts all about western hunting. Then you read an article about how to apply or whatever and they make...
1. My buddy actually has a few friends that go to a ranch type property that one of them owns out there with some private land I guess. He's going to talk to one of them tomorrow to try to see if we can get in on that. It's in the NW region that was affected by the kill off though, just barely...
The only reason I asked is because I don't want to be somewhere I'm not supposed to be. I assume onx will tell me if I'm trespassing as far as that goes.
Can you guys explain what the truck camping/base camp situation looks like? I've read through tons of old threads and they all just say "park at the trail head, make base camp at your truck, then start walking and looking". What does this trail head area look like? Are there signs? I suspect...
@406huntermt anything helpful to add to the conversation (other than crying emojis)?
As an update, since it seems that otc CO really is as easy as just buying the license and heading out, my buddy and I are looking into going this year before they eliminate the otc tags like people are talking...
Thank you for posting an actual useful response. I have no desire to pay someone just to shoot something and put it on the wall. I'm a public land mountain hunter through and through, the mountains around here are just smaller than out there. I'd rather learn and grow as a hunter and know that...
Can you elaborate on the motivation part? Maybe you underestimate how daunting this all is for someone so far away, since you live in CO? I'm certainly a motivated hunter, just figuring out where to go in general and how to do it legally has always been the difficult part.
So I've been wanting to hunt western game for about 25 years or so now. Been watching other people do it on tv, youtube etc. for as long. I've never been west of Ohio. Sitting in a treestand out here on the east coast is starting to get boring and life is working on passing me by. I've tried...
