NM seems to have stayed about the same. I see a lot more UTVs even now.
There's a ton of people that camp for months at a time where I'm at. They stay on the forest service so they don't have to commute to work.
I understand the reasoning, but it's on every spot nearby. I'd support FS...
I definitely have regrets for both wasted time and dumb things. Some wasted time doing dumb things too. Ha.
There is moments I look back and think "if only I started this then..."
So many "what ifs?" And "if onlys."
It seems the time happens when it happens. Some people might say when it...
I drank a bunch of diet coke at a friend's house the other night during a game night. Felt almost hungover the next day.
I usually avoid aspartame like the plague.
Stevia Leaf is my preferred no sugar sweetener.
Happy 4th of July everyone! Hope you all have good days. And here's to going to...
Everytime I've dealt with the customer service it was great.
Once I emailed about a lead time and never got a reply, but it's something I could've called about. Really wasn't worried about it.
Recently was asking about a new belt because of a rip in my old one. They went above and beyond...
I did this for years.
I never really fully committed to it until a little before I started this thread.
One thing I like that I've heard from others in recovery. You don't lose the lessons you learned. You just choose to step back on that better path.
Once I saw how much better this trail...
Camp from this weekends trip. 7 miles to the spot. There was a moose with two calves in the spot we originally intended to set up.
Ended up leading us to a perfect location.
Just picked up a inreach mini 2. It does add some peace of mind.
I didn't really worry about having one until I started backpacking with my girlfriend.
For future hunting trips it'll probably be nice to send stuff out so she knows I'm not dead yet. 😂
Took it on a trip this weekend. Only used...
I'm glad to see you sharing on here. I remember seeing you discussing some of this on Instagram a few years ago.
Definitely inspiring seeing you turn things around.
I've also switched to cooking steaks on a cast iron. While I haven't finished my quest for the perfect steak... Cast iron cooked ones are the best ones I've achieved.
True, but they do need to be hunting with archery tackle except for youth tags every now and then for leftovers.
I agree if people really want to hunt they'll find a way. It feels a little bit of a stretch though to recommend it as a good hunting opportunity unless someone knows their shit.
Based off this year's draw.
I drew a deer tag in a real low quality unit from third choice.
One buddy drew a gila tag after 5-6 years without drawing anything. (All archery applications too.)
None of my other friends drew anything. Even with low quality hunts on their choices.
My dad hasn't...
I switched to tea mostly. Some tea has pretty low caffeine levels. Brands usually have the amount listed on boxes or websites.
Caffeine and sugar are definitely my original addiction when I look back.
Seems to the hardest thing for me to kick.
I started doing tea in the morning and sometimes...
