2020 has treated our family very well in the hunting aspect. On Sept 26, my 78 year old grandfather took a big 5x5. This was the biggest 5x5 we have ever seen. 30 minutes after him, the neighbor kid hunting with us, shot his very first animal with a bow. A beautiful clean 6x6. On Sept 30, I was...
I had the exact same issue with my Lowa Tibet GTX. I avoided wearing them for 3 years until my Danner's blew up day 2 of the hunting season. I was forced to wear my Lowa's in +25C heat and I wore wool socks. After a week of spot and stalk hunting, the heat and sweat molded the boots to my feet...
This past season I shot the 100 gr Widowmaker from Black Widow Innovations. I'm shooting 70 lb Bowtech REALM, 3" draw, 100 grain head, total arrow weight of 400 grains, with a speed right around 293 fps
Every year I shoot at least one elk and most years I shoot two elk. I don't understand why...
Where I'm at as far as hunting career I wouldn't even stop the truck to look at him. Back when I was 12-15 and just started hunting, he would get my heart pumping hard. What I am getting at is it is all dependent on the person. I judge elk and deer by how they make me feel. If I have to convince...
My wife harvested her first ever sheep this past season, a ewe. It took her 6 points to pull the tag. In Alberta we can build Trophy (Rams) and Non Trophy (Ewe's) points at the same time.
This is my 2019 OTC General Season Alberta Mule Deer.
All in score of 190 4/8" (including 8" inline tine)
Gross Typical of 182 4/8" (not including 8" inline tine)
Net Typical of 170 2/8" (minus side to side deductions and minus 8" inline)
The Gordon Buck hasn't reported a net score yet, the Sask buck was 291 net. Also, Ed Broder was 355 net, 10 inches bigger than this buck's gross..... Just saying.... ;)
That's awesome, Silver Springs is a nice area. Truth be told I'm actually from Okotoks which is a small down south of Calgary about 20 min but no one would know where that is haha. I see you're from CO; I went to UW in Laramie and we spent a lot of time in FT Collins, Longmont, Denver, Greeley...
