    Game Cams Show Lots of Bulls But No Cows - Come Rut, Will Bulls Be Gone?

    There is an area I hunt in Montana where I have placed a number of game cameras. This is an area that is high mountains, that is within 2-6 miles of sage hills/wintering range. The sage/foothils are a mix of private/public. In the early summer, bulls began to show up in the mountains, but not...

    E-scouting for public land bull elk

    There are ways for hunters to sustain fruitful hunting, and grow the numbers of hunters at the same time. If your into getting in deep, and feel that there are more and more hunters, get involved in advocating for road closures, roadless areas and wilderness. Get involved with RMEF, MDF, and...

    Employment out West

    I live in Montana. Cost of real-estate is ridiculous right now. $400-500K for houses that in the midwest were going for $180-220K. Americans love their debt, so the market keeps rising.

    Feedback on the Chevy 2.8 CO Diesel?

    Paul, I have a 2017 Chevy Colorado Diesel. There are things I like about it, and things that feel somewhat concerning. Love the gas mileage (24.5-29mpg) . It handles great and has good pickup. I get over some rough country and forest service roads really quickly and with ease. Handles well in...

    What do archery elk hunters do when...

    From observing my brothers elk hunts over the years in heavily pressured OTC hunts in Colorado, is that many of the guys at the trailhead don't really know what they are doing. In the area they hunt, a lot of guys have been parking their campers in the same spot every year, and it becomes a...

    Garmin inreach explorer or older deloreme?

    I had a good garmin gps. I then needed an inreach. I didn't see the benefit of the garmin inreach, over the delorme. I bought the delorme and carry both garmin gps and delorme inreach. Maybe when the gamin allows one upload satellite imagery on their inreach, and sell the unit at a reasonable...

    North Idaho and Nwest Montana 2018 winter trail cam pics

    So great. I feel like a kid on Christmas when looking through my pics. Its sad people steal stuff. In some way it makes me not want to hunt the area, in another way it fuels me to try to kill a Big Bull. Hope you have a good spring/summer scouting season.

    What do you wish you’d done differently on your first western hunt?

    Another thing. I made mention of having backup plans, but...I realized in my first season, that one can spread themselves thin scouting. It is better to pick an area as your main area and learn it. My first year I tried to scout out 5 different areas trying to find the best one. I ended up not...

    What do you wish you’d done differently on your first western hunt?

    Great advice already- Don't put too much pressure on yourself to kill an animal. Just enjoy the hunt. Also, realize that many times there are closed/unmarked forest service gates, that OnX/Gamin/software doesn't show. Scout out your areas pre season to make sure you can even get there. Have...

    Elk Tactics

    Last year my 2 brothers and their best friend tagged out in less than 2 days on elk by sitting on wallows in Colorado. Every year, I know that they would prefer to hunt a different style, but they always settle on hunting wallows when the elk aren't moving or aren't yet calling in the season...

    308 bullet choice

    I agree with the accubond and ttsx. Both are great. Just remember that with all copper, they run higher pressures. So with barnes, your node may be at a lower charge. True to the recommendation by barnes, I have found that ~.050 off the lands is best for accuracy.

    Montana HD 631 - Missouri Breaks

    Gumbo is still on my truck's underbody after multiple washes and 1+ year after a shed hunting adventure. Good luck on your hunt.

    Watching the half ton diesel trucks.

    I have a 2017 Chevy Colorado in diesel. There are things I like about it and things I don't. If anyone has question let me know.

    WTB Garmin inreach Explorer +

    Not trying to kill your thread, but have you thought about the Delorme Inreach. I was in a similar situation last season. I already had a Garmin 64, but wanted the ability to reach out and communicate. The 64 has birds-eye(satellite) imagery, which I find very helpful. The new Garmin Inreach...

    8 year old slashes other students with a knife.

    When these things stop getting reported in the media, they stop happening. It has been done in other countries of similar issue, with a great level of success. The idea probably wouldn't apply to an 8 year old. But it would with the school shootings. I am not saying we need to be an ignorant...

    How to mount blackhawk serpa holster on x-curve belt?

    I got the stone glacier pack today. Seems awesome in its design overall. The serpa strike platform that allows you to attach your holster to pals webbing will not work with this belt. Any of you figured out a way to get a serpa secured well to a x-curve belt?
