I'm in SW MO and think people are doing this. My cousin has the itch and brings it up sometimes. The other curve ball in our area is gigging season. The jet boats are out there finding holes to gig at night. Then some will set up and cook the fresh fish on gravel bars.
It will be a good...

PSA often sells their AR's for $499. This is the original manufacturer selling a nice version for only $100 more. $599
The milkweed for the win.
It is visible and drifting on wind/thermals many many feet away from your position.
I had a buck approaching my tree stand and without any other tool but milkweed, I knew the shot would not happen. At the approximate location I expected him to scent me, he did.
But...
I'm going need feedback on my idea for short individual waits .
Over the life of a silencer, will the revenue stream be lower with a trust ? Less opportunities for the tax stamp??
It's probably not true but playing a game of follow the money in my head right now.
That is a great suggestion. We have used clicker with our family dog. And also a few foster dogs so they have basic manners for their forever family.
The technique is both simple and multi-faceted. Lots of ways to shift a command to something different or new.
I really enjoyed seeing my dog learn and understand scent skills. You probably have seen guys hold a treat in one hand and then put both hands in front of the dog. Maybe a paw on correct hand or nose to open your hand for the treat.
Same basic principle is in action for antlers.
We did indoor...
I understand that. The event had me chasing a way to get in since I'm not in the industry either.
A company Stealth Outdoors has been on another forum for years and I approached them to volunteer at their booth. It worked.
Overall it is not set up for consumer buying but seeing and handling new...
I wanted to add how I enjoy hunting to the conversation. The theoretical HF hunt doesn't check all the boxes of why I hunt. I'm also at a financial point where 2-5k spent on a hunt would need to be justified by what is brought home.
After being an RMEF volunteer for 10+ years, I still have not...
I still feel it's a grey area. A completely legal one even.
The new equipment cost for an eastern guy to prep and execute a elk hunt out west as an example would cover 50-75% of a fenced hunt. Add the tag, gas, PTO, lodging etc and well...
Tomorrow and Saturday I will be visiting the Archery Trade show in STL.
What fancy new gear will be out this year? They will show it off.
Celebrity signing, yes.
Swag, of course.
Badlands have tattoo artists waiting to give you a free tat if you want their logo!!
Hopefully I can share some...
When I consider what is offered with X amount of dollars at a pay to play hunting operation , things go grey quickly.
A high fence hunt can secure a big pile of meat in a short amount of time. Guaranteed.
Same dollars set aside for 7-10 days of DIY state tag hunting sounds AWESOME. Not coming...
My dad bought a Model 7 new when I was a kid. It has passed on to me . I agree with the OP that optics should be addressed.
A previous slug gun had a Bushnell red dot that could adjust dot size just as you change mag level. Close shots were 6-8 moa and a precision longer shot with time could be...
A slik tripod a couple days back was unexpected spend. Cabela's Euro 10x32 for less than $500 was a good score.
My Ebike story didn't go as planned but watched that event here.
I'm a volunteer for RMEF and live central US. Whether I get to hunt west or not I am aware of one thing.
The Falls Creek project convinced a President to permanently authorize federal conservation funding.
THAT IS FOR ALL OF US. In every state. Maybe even helpful to US territories.
