    Breaking Rules, Tack, and Everything Else: My DIY Horseback Hunting Chronicle

    450, depends on the size/weight/condition of the mules' being used, deboning the elk or not and whether you are riding or walking. I would think the minimum would be 3 solid mules if you are walking out. 2 for the quartered-up elk carcass and 1 for a basic camp and the rack. Add a riding mule...

    Breaking Rules, Tack, and Everything Else: My DIY Horseback Hunting Chronicle

    About the only horses I've ever seen that would stand still for hours and hours untied and never move no matter what was going on were the Amish buggy horses. They must train them to ignore everything going on around them. I don't know how they do this, but it must take time and patience...

    Breaking Rules, Tack, and Everything Else: My DIY Horseback Hunting Chronicle

    Working with a seasoned horse trainer gets you to that point much quicker than going it alone and finding things out for yourself, sometimes the hard and dangerous way, plus you get to learn about the horses complicated physical systems and help with health matters to compliment what you read...

    Breaking Rules, Tack, and Everything Else: My DIY Horseback Hunting Chronicle

    Owning and riding a horse isn't cheap, but the reward is so worth it. I grew up on a horse farm until I was 17, but had been away from it for 45 years so a lot was lost. I retired 5 years ago and had thought of getting another horse. I bought a 7 year old Walker with good ground manners and...

    New F-350 motor options?

    Well, I love my 2024 F450 Super Duty dually crew cab and 8' box FX4 off-road smoker.....with 430's its a true beast. Yes, it's long but that sharp radius steering the F450 has is the cats ass. Rides very nice too with that long wheelbase. My other smoker is a 2003 Dodge 2500HD w/ the Cummins...

    Bear attack or homicide in Montana

    a lot to be said about having a dog with you when walking or camping outdoors...nothing gets past their keen senses to alert you or even protect you.

    Dash Cams

    An attorney friend of mine highly recommends them and thinks everyone should use them..not just for accidents, car jackings and break-ins but also for police harassment and potential unnecessary police brutality. It happens folks. All of it.

    Concrete coating with traction.

    don't use sand...it isnt hard enough. use either granite or quartzite aggregate instead. I used this mixed in with Sherwin-Williams urethane concrete formulation for industrial floors that holds up very well to 24/7 forklift traffic. Add as much or little aggregate depending on how slip...

    Sold Weatherby Mark V Accumark Custom 30-378

    This is the ideal long range rifle. I'm betting it will shoot into 1/2" groups too. Long-Rangers club have been whacking whitetails and black bears at 1000-1200 yards for decades in north central Pa with this cartridge.

    WTS Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan .454 casull/.45 colt

    I have one of these in 480 Ruger....they are really accurate, way beyond what you think a short barrel would yield. Recoil isn't bad either. Pretty comfortable to shoot.

    Kuiu… on Amazon!?

    roadrunner, my older son does about 900K per year of sales of Amazon. been doing it since he was in college 20 years ago. started with $50 and grew it exponentially. Amazon knocks off a lot of products and competes with their sellers all the time, especially the past 4 or 5 years, including...

    Kuiu… on Amazon!?

    Amazon is taking a 15% bite out of the sale......so maybe if they lower the prices by 15% they wouldn't need Amazons bullshit. Just watch, I guarantee Amazon will have an overseas manufacturer duplicate the product and it will be Amazon's brand, only cheaper. They do this with everything.

    Will Vehicle Prices Ever Decrease?

    Huckelfin, once you get into your mid 60's like me and above that you best be thinking about how you want to enjoy what you worked your entire life to attain. That curtain isn't too far off. Most don't make it into their 80's and 90's like everyone assumes, and if they did the only thing they...

    Will Vehicle Prices Ever Decrease?

    Corbland...depends on what you are buying. Back in March an F450 was 9% with a CS of 775 and 20% down. I paid all cash instead. I did finance my 2024 Kubota SVL 75-3 track loader for 75K at 0% for 48 months. Yeah, that was nice.

    Will Vehicle Prices Ever Decrease?

    So long as you can afford it, does anyone ever need to self-reflect on why they "need" anything? If you want a 100K truck and you can afford it, buy it. I can and I did. I'm tired of the Ramsey ways of looking at life. Did you know the majority of retirees that have retirement investments...

    Will Vehicle Prices Ever Decrease?

    Reburn, you did good. Typically there are no discounts on 2500 and up trucks since they make fewer of them than the 1500. Dealers are feeling some pain from the higher interest rates though. With Ford F450 you have to order them but some dealers self order them then sell them for an upcharge...

    Will Vehicle Prices Ever Decrease?

    I bought a new 2024 F450 crew-cab 8' box Super Duty and it was delivered about 6 months ago.....it's a wonderful truck. 16mpg around town and 24mpg on the highway and it rides like a caddy.....and that 475hp/1050 ft lbs torque diesel pulls like a monster. You can't even feel the 10 speed tranny...

    Rifle and Scope?

    I bought a CA Ridgeline FFT Ti in 308 about 18 months ago and the same in 7PRC about 6 months ago. I'm not sure what you mean by quality going down as both of my rifles look fantastic, no quality issues, are lightweight and shoot great. The 308 does 1/2" with factory Federal blue box and the...
