    Do I Need Nicer Glass?

    Imagine looking through your binos and seeing someone looking at you through a scope. 😱. Dont point your rifle until a target is available. If your scope gives you better info you can decide not to shoot

    Podcasts, why do you listen

    I spend at least 20 hours a week driving by myself. Therefore I know every song ever written by heart. Podcasts keep my mind engaged with information while I am being entertained.

    Shipping or flying with antelope shoulder mount?

    For the same amount as shipping these 3 guys my wife and I took a road trip to pick them up. The savings paid for gas and hotels for 4 nights and she got to see the Badlands. I always wonder what people thought of our carpool.

    Antelope meat?

    Made straight antelope burgers on a griddle with just some montreal steak seasoning. Had to use the griddle as it crumbles pretty easy while cooking. The wife and I loved it. Dont overcook it, its pretty lean.

    Idiot shooters

    I had to stop gun hunting a property because of the reckless neighbors. If 1 deer came out in the field every guy unloaded at them. Luckily it forced me to learn to bow hunt.

    First Rifle Choice

    Shooting 12 gauge slugs in Illinois taught me how to flinch. I also couldnt trust the accuracy past 100 yards. When I started learning to hunt with a rifle a x bolt 308 worked great. Easy recoil, easy to find ammo, and enough gun to kill a deer or pronghorn at 400 yards which is too far for me...

    Processed based hunter education

    I know actual hunting is the best way to learn. I've been hunting the midwest for almost 2 decades and learn something new every year. I want to hunt "out west" and as a non resident I need to accumulate points and will not get a tag every year. At almost 50 I know I need more time than this. I...
