    Does anyone use a thermal while scanning before switching to traditional optics?

    Sure, using thermal to hunt big game might be legal in some jurisdictions, but it's still low-T energy.

    How do you get your elk racks back home in your truck bed? Tips / Pics appreciated.

    Like any other piece of gear? It's not really rocket appliances. Ratchet strapped in the back. I usually put something soft-ish between the antlers and hard surfaces on long drives to reduce friction.

    Strategy for Other Hunters in "Your" Spot

    It's public. First come, first served. I wouldn't touch the fire wood and would probably set my camp up out of the way, but I'd still camp there. People don't get to call dibs on public by leaving their stuff there.

    How much fat do you leave on your bear when grinding?

    I trim the fat off a bear like any other animal. I don't go crazy about about it, there's always a little bit left, whether it's deer, elk, bear, moose or antelope. Never had any issues.

    Are you taking this bet?

    Can we ask some serious questions please? Are hotdogs sandwiches? Do you drink or eat soup? Is cereal soup? Is the Kool Aid man the pitcher or the juice?

    Shoot or pass

    These posts are silly. You're not looking for advice, you're looking for reassurance. As long as it's legal, do what ever you want and you shouldn't GAF about what other people think. Cogito ergo sum! Be your own man, make your own decisions.

    Driving into Canada with long guns

    I cross often into the US from Canada with firearms. As a license Canadian gun owner, I don't have to transport my non-restricted firearms locked and encased as long as I am in the vehicle with them. That being said, I would never cross the border with unlocked firearms outside of a gun case...

    Camo for hunting bear over bait?

    Movement and scent is what you should be most concerned about. I killed my last bear wearing solids and plaid, from the ground at 50 yards, no blind.

    Why is my bear grease liquid

    Like stated above, likely too hot in your house for it to solidify. Throw it in the fridge or basement.

    Hunting in smoke

    I find that whenever I can actually smell the smoke, is about when I revisit if I really want to be out hunting or hiking. From experience, a haze or light smoke you can't smell doesn't affect animal movement much or my performance. But the moment it gets thicker and I start smelling it, the...

    Moose weather - what is warm?

    Moose will still move around when it's hot out, they just do it early or later in the day. The biggest thing with hunting a moose-sized animal in warm weather is having a plan for if you do get one.
