    Hunting from horse questions

    Getting a horse comfortable in the woods and on trails are completely different than anything else. I’d never take one of my performance horses into the backcountry. With that said, I’ve had 15-20 mustangs and another half dozen papered and unpapered QHs over the past couple years and I’ve...

    Salomon X Ultra 4 Mid GTX for WY Oct Pronghorn

    I bought a pair of X-Ultra 4s a week ago. I had to size down as they fit bigger than most. With Merrells which I wear every day I’m a half size up and in Kennetreks in a half size up from the Merrells. Very individual fit for sure. I’ve always worn Merrells with great luck. Hiked and hunted...

    I’ve had no issue with handling of large solid objects in the bags. In terms of quality I’d say the canvas has a thickness in terms of the same as a Crown Royal bag.

    Packing with mustangs?

    Yesterday this mustang put on his first pack bags. Tomorrow he gets loaded with 50 lbs per side and back out on the trails. He’s been the 4th or 5th best mustang I’ve had in the last 3 yrs out of more than 20. As they say, there are too many good ones to keep a bad one. I’ve sifted through a...

    One last thing you need to teach your horses to hobble. That is something I usually start on week one. There are multiple benefits to this, one you teach a horse to hobble for when you are backcountry. Two you teach that horse it’s much easier to stand in one place than it is to hop around...

    You definitely understand me correctly on the 10’ circle. In my opinion it is FAR harder to get them to yield their front end than the back end. If the front end is sticky teach them to side pass and then focus on the front end. Usually the front end requires a lot more energy from you and...

    Couple things: if you are a new or inexperienced rider you are making movements that are signals to all horses especially green horses. You would do well to get proper lessons from a riding instructor. Body English, hand movement and pressure are all things that horses adjust to. Think about...

    Hunting Horse Deluxe

    Just sold 2 more horses I finished this week and thankfully I’m down to 6 that won’t be leaving and NOW ready to go get a mule or two. This was great timing! Out of curiosity what do most of those mules run for?

    Unconventional horse food

    We have one mare who gets a cup of coffee every morning for the past 2 yrs. She comes to the back door when I turn the kitchen light on in the mornings and waits patiently. We have another gelding who loves regular potato chips.

    New Argali Lightweight Tent Line **Review Added 7/10/22**

    These are super cool Brad! I’m looking forward to trying one of these out! Question on space on the Rincon. With two people in the tent, is there enough room to have the stove as well or would we be better off going with the Absaroka? Thanks!

    7 MM - 08 To 280 AI

    I picked up my Browning HCS LR in .280AI back in the spring for $1129.00 here in TX. I have been shooting 140 gr. .280 REM for hogs and deer all year with incredibly accurate and lethal results. I have the spring removed from the trigger because factory it is a hair too stiff. I have a...
