    Oregon Clear Cuts or Deep Timber for ANY Buck

    This is exactly what I have observed as well. On the heavily traveled roads near clear cuts, they aren’t there (except at night).

    Oregon Clear Cuts or Deep Timber for ANY Buck

    I am still very much an amateur when it comes to consistently finding legal bucks. But I have read numerous blacktail specific books, listened to podcasts, read a ton of posts here and elsewhere, and spent several dozen hours in the field this year scouting and hunting. The public land clear...

    Oregon Roosevelt Elk

    Dang….. after reading this thread and hearing that people have had experiences like that…. Makes me wonder. Guess I can always give it a go for deer and see what happens. Dealing with asshats ruins it for me. I’m also planning on bringing my 4 year old (he does really well in the woods).

    Rifle hunt for now. I used to bow hunt, but in a fit of stupidity, sold my bow. I do not yet have a rangefinder at all. So far, I’m either trying to find knobs looking out/at clear cuts or in super thick coastal underbrush (Oregon on west side of Willamette valley). I’m still trying to find my...

    Next optic purchase (binos, range finder, or …)

    Hi All. Long time lurker and new member. I am considering upgrading a pair of Steiner Military Marine 10x50 binos from 1970. They work alright, but I feel like modern glass is a big improvement in clarity. I’m on a budget and have been reading various reviews here and else where. Does...
