WY Corner Crossing Solution?
Wyoming lawsuit: In 2004 Bill Kearney of Douglas was acquited of trespass charges when he corner jumped. The AG memo on 25 Aug 2004 stated: “’Corner Crossing’ may still be a criminal trespass under Wyoming Statue 6-3-303. Wyoming Game and Fish enforcement officers do not have the legislative...- f16jack

A scary day in the elk woods
Yep. It was a question of whether or not I wanted to engage with a meth addled violent person. I placed my report with the Sheriff and asked him to simply add it his other reports on the individual. It wasn't worth the risk to me to pursue this. They already know about this guy. -
A scary day in the elk woods
I had a similar experience in Western Idaho. Two of us had permission to hunt private land, and the landowner clearly showed us the boundaries. I went in from one side, and my buddy from the other, planning to meet in the middle. As I entered the adjacent landowner, across a small stream... -
Another truck tire thread
Go to tirerack.com and look at data for treadlife, traction, noise, etc. Great analysis over millions of mile if use. One of the categories is "would you recommend." I've run 10 ply KO-2's on my rigs for many years. I recently switched to the General Grabber AT's Light Truck tire. Look at the...- f16jack

Taking a non-Hunter along - Yes or No
I've taken non-hunting friends on "easy" hunts, like using a camper and then glassing and stalking animals. We enjoyed their company and they enjoyed the experience. I have never taken any on difficult hunts, like wilderness backpack hunts. We need focused qualified outdoorsman that we can...- f16jack

To brake or not to brake... that is the question.
My hearing loss was not from gunfire. It My hearing loss was not from gun fire. It was from a career of flying fighter aircraft. I blame no one for these injuries, they were a occupational hazard that we accepted with no issue, just like getting shot down, having a mid-air, and the rest of... -
To brake or not to brake... that is the question.
So, when I'm chatting with a stranger while glassing a deer, and he unexpectedly lets loose a magnum round with a brake on, it's my fault? He had no responsibility there at all? Not even a warning that he might shoot? We all have responsibilities. I take no responsibility for his actions... -
To brake or not to brake... that is the question.
Apology accepted. I misunderstood your approach. I agree that we all have individual responsibility to protect ourselves. When someone shows up, aware of what you are doing, and sets up next to you it is on them, not you. It's not that you don't care, it's that they don't care and are... -
To brake or not to brake... that is the question.
Yep. You are the guy at the range (or in the field) who gives the rest of us a bad name. The "I don't care about the poor soul." Yep, everyone else has the responsibility to get out of your way. Reflective of today's society. -
To brake or not to brake... that is the question.
I may have been a little over the top with the "assault" comment. It reflects more my view of a society where we have obligations that extend beyond ourselves, and that if we inadvertantly cause harm to those around us we have failed to live up to our obligations. Then it is a question of... -
To brake or not to brake... that is the question.
Thanks for the Fort Collins report. Very well done. it is surprising that they found that double protection added up to 20 dB more. Most studies state that a 2nd level only adds 5 dB. I agree with you that most folks don't wear protection properly, and that at the range or in the field... -
Bullet proof elk
That bullet performed exactly like a Berger VLD is supposed to. Result is one dead elk. -
To brake or not to brake... that is the question.
Guys. This has been a great discussion. I'm glad that everyone has been respectful and has supported their position with actual science. Here's what I've learned from this thread: 1. Single hearing protection can reduce noise by up to 30 dB. 2. Double hearing protection only increases... -

Utah Wilderness Elk Hunt - 2014
Just uploaded a new YouTube elk hunt video. I've got a bunch I'm working on, year by year. Perhaps I'll even do a compilation. -
