    "hurry over that ridge" "are they still running?"

    First time Bow Elk

    All of the suggestions above regarding estimating range without a rangefinder and shooting without a perfect stance and your pack on. Never set your bow down more than an arm's length away. The word apparate pertains not only to Harry Potter but elk: "to appear magically".

    San Diego Home Costs whoosh!!!

    This works for someone with discipline especially when the investment environment starts snowballing downhill. For many, pay minimum and invest the rest becomes pay minimum, spend some and invest some. Then pay minimum, spend the rest. I've never seen paying interest as a good thing, even low...

    Montana (and other state) hunter orange laws out dated?

    This is Colorado's brain trust equivalent of the Wyoming wilderness law except outfitters don't benefit.

    Wyoming Commission Meeting

    Sure, I agree. They all seemed like really good folks although only a couple ever spoke. They have a lot to digest at that meeting but I'm sure they have the info ahead of time that's presented by GF. I was just noticing the respect drifted towards reverence in the formality of the speakers. I...

    Wyoming Commission Meeting

    It sounds like the Super Tag draw would be the only non resident strategy for anyone less than max points or very close. observation: these commissioners are treated like royalty and anyone commenting acts like they are commoners before Julius Caesar.

    Wyoming Commission Meeting

    Interesting discussion though about shortening archery season in areas where rifle season was shortened and some discussion on "choose your weapon" with the increasing popularity of archery hunting. The comments made it sound like bowhunters were knocking down large numbers in the unit...

    Wyoming Commission Meeting

    Any news or updates out of Riverton especially regarding elk seasons and tag allocation changes? I imagine the first day was consumed by the wolf in a bar fiasco.

    Toddler Archary?

    I have one of these that has gone thru 4 daughters (now adults) and 8 grandkids. They were a little older when they started though, like 3-5y. It's a lot like bike riding. Some take to it easily and others need a little time. Once they start shooting a "real" bow make sure they have an arm...

    Bluebird house defense

    I thought this was going to be a snake story but it's still kind of early.

    Reliable Trail Cameras

    Any College wrestling fans as we head into the post season?

    Perry is John Smith's nephew. I don't know what he offers as a coach. Good resume as a wrestler. I don't think Guerrero or Esposito are still there.

    Any College wrestling fans as we head into the post season?

    When Coleman Scott was hired as an Associate Head Coach from his head coach job at UNC it was only a matter of time. Scott may have been the draw for Hamiti. UNC has had more national champs than Oklahoma State over the past five years The Dylan Ragusin interview didn't exactly help Smith's...

    The cartridge for the next 30 years….

    As a kid I would work in the pit pulling targets. At the time I never appreciated how well my dad and his friends could shoot those open sights. The rifle my dad gave me as a kid was a Model 70 in .270 that he hunted with. It's still my only big game rifle. It's pushing 60 years old so I guess...

    [Upstate NY] Rocky outcrop ridge for hunting cover?

    Rifle or archery? Don't over do the September squirrel hunting. You don't want to change their habits from your spring and summer scouting. As mentioned, their food sources will change but human activity can alter their territory too.

    Kubota vs John Deere

    Tractor purchase is like a land purchase. Buy more than you think you need assuming it fits where you're working. Exactly no one says "I wish my tractor had less horsepower"

    Anyone wish they didn’t fletch their own arrows?

    My father (passed in 2004) used to constantly repeat this theory but added a consequence: " you don't pay someone to do something you can do yourself or some day you will be paying someone to wipe your a**"
