    Saw something weird in the woods, was it a cat set?

    The other day I was back four miles from the nearest road as the crow flies in southern Oregon hunting deer. In a nice stand of trees I saw a bunch of 3-4' logs leaned up against a tree creating a little cubby or very lame shelter. Inside it, there were a few car air fresheners that dangle from...

    3 bodies found in Colorado NF

    This thread is full of really disgusting comments about some people who made poor choices and a child who didn't have a choice. I guess you get to say anything as long as the people you deride are homeless. Hatred of people without a place to stay will never make sense to me

    The Season '23

    Heard a bugle and some cows talking while scouting this morning in coastal Oregon. Got the blood pumping and it was good to know there are some elk with antlers around since all im getting on my cams are cows and no luck finding fresh rubs yet

    I want the safety on my 457 to lock the bolt

    Any way to mod this on the cz 457? The only thing I don't love about this rifle is how the bolt gets knocked open on safe when I'm walking in the woods with it.

    WTS Lowa Renegade GTX 10.5 M $125

    Less than 100 miles on these. Good boots but a half size too small for me. They'll come with the Lowa shoelaces and surefoot insoles. $125 + shipping. I'll consider trading for a decent drop point knife, bino harness, or 30-06/6.5 Creedmoor ammo.

    Looking for the right scope

    So far this is the most intriguing option, but what I'm reading about it says it's not really the best in full daytime light . Can anyone weigh in on that

    Looking for the right scope

    -centerfire big game rifle -$1200 max -likely won't ever be taking shots out past 350y, hunt mostly in western Oregon. Maybe 12x magnification max (3-12x42 maybe) no exposed turrets -lightweight is a plus -lifetime warranty -no vortex -great in low light and fog resistant What do you think?

    Oregon Coast Range Blacktail Tips and Tricks?

    I don't mean to belittle this type of hunting, it is definitely challenging in many ways. But if you look at the harvest statistics, they do tell you that many folks succeed. Blacktails for the most part are plentiful

    Oregon Coast Range Blacktail Tips and Tricks?

    Honestly not that hard to shoot one of these deer. Maybe if you're trying to kill a big one but if you want meat it's pretty easy. Check out the harvest statistics in the SW units. It's basically around 50% across the board. Just find a closed logging road, walk in a couple miles, and stare at a...

    Rabbit and hare hunting in different parts of the country

    I work in the coast range around myrtle point and until recently i lived around azalea. Those are good recommendations thank you. Can you say anything about the kind of habitat you saw them in?

    Rabbit and hare hunting in different parts of the country

    Have any wisdom about finding the hares in SW Oregon? I know you said you'd get them incidentally but I really do spend a ton of time in the woods and I've only seen 3 ever that quickly disappeared into the brush.

    Roseburg OR, What do I need to know?

    Poison oak contains a lot more urushiol than does poison ivy. It has the consistency of motor oil or grease so you do need something like dish soap and a lot of scrubbing to remove it. Use cold water as hot opens your pores and allow the oil in deeper. If you really get into it just know...
