    When to quit?

    I believe he has Joel Turners book. That’s where I would start. Even better would be one of the in person classes.

    When to quit?

    You need to learn how to execute a proper shot sequence. Your brain turns to mush and you throw up a hope and a prayer. Until you learn how to do this, you’ll keep missing.

    What hunter stage are you in?

    I’m not sure which one. I could care less about trophies. I’m not spending money on taxidermy. Antlers become dog chews and hides go in the garbage. I could care less about method. Never got into muzzleloaders and I sold my bow last year. I like hunting new places as a challenge to translate...

    Tips for getting a steady shot in the backcountry.

    Practice sitting, standing and kneeling in the offseason. I’m pretty comfortable shooting out to 400 yards from a seated position, over the top of my pack. If you can get a front rest and a pack at the rear it’s even better. I find it’s pretty rare for me to be able to shoot from prone...

    When to quit?

    If someone can hunt that many days and not see a deer, maybe hunting isn’t for them.

    Yeah, you can not let them have the retrieves. I think that’s a step or two down the road though. The water bottle squirt works, or you can just pinch the lips into their teeth until they open their mouth. Whenever one of my dogs is a dink in the field I’ll take the bird and then give it right...

    When to quit?

    With all due respect, you sound like a head case and a cacophony of self fulfilling negative prophecy. If you aren’t having fun, quit. Don’t let a hobby make you an Eyore.

    2024 show your dogs success

    Keep a fresh bird and do some work in the yard. Take the bird, give him a treat. Then, give it back. Repeat. Do this a few times, give it back, make him follow you at heel and then take it and give him a treat.

    Then fill them and stop worrying about bucks.

    Land Owner Perspective on Western States

    Might not be a bad idea to figure out how many acres it takes to support a cow in some of those states.

    I’ve killed elk no problem with the 85 TSX.

    Feedback on Whitetail Shot

    He will absolutely die and you shot too far back on a quartering to shot. Edit: I read further and saw your updates. You said afterwards it was a broadside. I don’t know, my speculation is his body was bent in some way. Arrows can do funny things, but a 90 degree turn is hard to believe. It’s...

    Which company to buy pre-made seasoning kit from??

    I used Hi Mountain for summer sausage and it turned out really well.

    Looking for a Wyoming resident hunting partner

    I agree, completely. I’m just encouraging him to quit talking smack on the sidelines and go “throw tea in the harbor”.

    When to quit?

    If you have to be tuned into your phone to endure the sit, you aren’t tuned into what’s around you and you’re likely missing stuff. It sounds to me like you don’t honestly enjoy the time in the stand.

    Sharpening Knives in the Field

    I have a KOA alpha wolf with D2. I can work through an elk with a minor touch up in a ceramic rod.

    Looking for a Wyoming resident hunting partner

    @ThorM465 go hunt the wilderness, take your ticket and then run it up through the appellate courts. Put your money where your mouth is.
