I’ve hunted both ways and to me, comfort is king. In fact I sold my entire tipi setup.
I enjoy coming back to a large camp where I can sit in a chair, cook food on a propane stove (with actual pans), drink something other than water, have a warm tent all night long, etc. I don’t care if I...
Your BHA board chair, Buzz Hettick is one of the biggest and loudest voices in reducing NR opportunities in Wy. He is a huge reason why sheep, goats and moose have been reduced to 90/10. He is in favor of dropping deer, elk and antelope to 90/10 too. He’s pushed hard for the NR tag increases...
I’d like to share my recent experience with savage and also vent a little. In early February I purchased a new Stevens 301 20 gauge for my son’s first turkey hunt. After I got home I remove the rail to clean the oil from the rail and screws. After I got it all cleaned up I put blue loctite on...
Jack Daniels has really impressed over the last few years. Their bonded series is amazing for the price. What really impressed me most is their barrel proof rye.
Interesting, I’ve always pulled coals to the door. Do you close down the air intake too with your method?
With rounds I’d get 4-5 hour. Not a big deal, as I tend to have to pee in the middle of the night.
Madison has amazing ice fishing. Since you’ll be arriving in January you should give that a try. Best rifle range I’ve found is in Shiocton (steel to 600 yards), which will be a 2 hour drive. I echo what others have said about fly fishing, drive west of Madison.
Not sure if it’s been said, Airbnb! There’s nothing like having an entire house to relax in for about the same price as a hotel. You have space to relax and can also cook food when you like. It’s rare I stay in a traditional these days.
Darn near missed it! Put in for a random strip tag and bighorn. I’m hoping to have enough points in a few years for a good couse tag.
I’ve said it before, I HATE Arizonas system. Why the heck can’t their website be user friendly and have all the deadlines on the same day. Ugh.
You’ll find deer in NM. Just make sure you’re on your glass at first and last night! They don’t move much after the sun comes up. I filled a tag on an upper 160 a few years ago. Take a nap mid day because they won’t be moving, that’s for sure.
What do you think happens when more people keep jumping into point systems? I’d rather have a chance at a tag, then never be able to catch up with creep.
Brittany owner here.
My neighbor has a fenced in yard, which she free ranges her egg laying chickens. One of the hens found it’s wings and would some what regularly hop the fence. She clipped its wings, but it would still get out. One day I look at my dogs gps and he’s 100 yards away in the...
The site hasn’t exited for 12 years I don’t think…. Gen z is surly bright enough to do a google search for hunting info. Most results will be linked to the forums here.
Do a search for Arizona otc deer and it’ll direct you to the site.
Here’s the post I was talking about. It’s a small sample size, but it appears gen z, for now, are not all that interested in western hunting.
