    Words I wish I could take back

    That one takes the prize, and a very normal observation and comment for equipment. I keep getting reminded about the time we were on the beach one evening after consuming a bit and I commented about "the star that never moves", referring to Polaris.

    Washington High Buck

    Hunted for years on the eastside of the crest south of I90 and seems that you could compare the tails of three bucks and they would be anywhere from full mule coloration or full blacktail or mix of both. The PCT is just kind of arbitrary, animals don't abide by human established boundaries...

    6.5 CM copper bullet choice lite and fast or heavy

    Yep, won't have issues with close shots at all. May lose a petal if you hit a big bone, big deal. I've shot Barnes exclusively for 30+ years in all manner of calibers, 15 yards to 250 all work great.

    Winter Bivouac in the Elkhorns

    Definitely not much snow, fire didn't have to go too deep to hit the ground. See any critters out and about?

    Calling on my fellow color blind hunters - glassing advice

    I'm not colorblind, but I get your frustration. The passenger window on my '94 Toyota has been tinted and that really screws with my spotting animals driving down the road. My dad taught us kids not to look for the whole animal, but legs, ear flickers, horizontal line between two trees only...

    Tough moose meat?

    Here's the ticket, https://north40.com/lem-clamp-on-tenderizer Works great when you slice the steaks about 1/2" thick and run them through a couple times. I do this when I am making Elk Parmesan, it would be killer with moose.

    Pics of animals you weren't hunting

    Definitely a wolverine, juvenile, no vertical striping on the face. Tracks and the loping movement were dead give aways also.

    Wyo Special Apps are down in #’s

    Definitely like Utah hybrid system, half the tags are preference and half are bonus. The only time preference points systems the best is if you got in one the ground floor and then you can pretty much predict when you are going to draw. Bonus point systems just plain suck. Washington is the...

    Dream hunts a 20 year old should build points for?

    Agree on living in a state that offers lots of hunting possibilities with a good future for residents. You are still young enough that your roots probably aren't too deep, move now while you can. Get the residency in the state that offers the most and has a stable Game and Fish department and...

    WTS Swarovski 20-60 Eyepiece

    So a question on the 25-50, how much of a difference is it? Do you feel it is worth the cost? I have a new ATS 65 HD and am very impressed with it, but it came with the standard 20-60 eye piece.

    Why do I suck at long range?

    One other thing to think about, what are the thermals doing on the opposite hillside. Easy way to really confuse yourself is to watch the snow fall across a canyon, goes many different directions from the breeze at your location.

    Trigger weight on superlite (5.5lb all-in) rifle?

    2.5 should be fine, that is what I just ordered. I was able to get mine down to 3 with a coil cut and had no problem holding tight groups.

    Eyeglasses distorting riflescope reticle

    I had progressive glasses for about a week and with astigmatism it was like looking through distorting mirrors. Look at a rectangle, move my head a bit and the rectangle appeared as a parallelogram, went right back and had them switched out to normal bifocal lenses. Don't know if that is what...
