    Do you believe in ghosts

    I only started on the first page of this thread right before bed and I should have waited until the morning lol. My mom has told me several experiences her family had when they moved into a previously abandoned house that still freak me out. Like, legit "ghost" sightings. One of my best friends...

    Bigfoot

    I would be hesitant to use archery equipment. They are big, fast, and I'm sure pretty grumpy with an arrow in him. Assuming they aren't interdenominational travelers, I would say they are in the class of brown bear or cape buffalo as far as archery goes. You want heavy and cut on contact I...

    Idaho Spring Bear

    2-3 days being "short but doable" is very encouraging. I hope to get it done with five! I cannot wait for spring! Even if I don't get one, getting out in the mountains during spring is going to be gorgeous.

    How to go about antelope hunting for the first time?

    My dad and I hunted in a certain eastern half unit, I'm not saying which, that can be drawn with 0-1 points and had a great hunt, plenty of stalks, saw a few decent bucks too.

    Beginner turkey hunting

    Hunting them in the timber is my my favorite way to hunt them. There is a lot more maneuvering to be done to get in position. As said above, find them on the roost the night before and get within 100 yards if possible or sneak as close as you can in the predawn light. If I close my eyes and...

    How do you stabilize your rifle for Antelope?

    Sitting height bipod to get above sage and grass. If I need more stability but cant go prone because of grass, I use the sitting height bipod in front and sit with my pack between my legs and use the pack frame to stabilize the rear of the rifle. It works pretty well. I could shoot a few hundred...

    What is a deer skull worth

    Where I'm at that's a civil issue, judge judy style, not a police matter.

    Out of state - Trailer/Tent setup

    I'm looking into a canvas bell tent. They look easier to set up by yourself with only one center pole.

    South Dakota pheasant success pics please

    I'm one guy, Two of those people are my wife and my dad, they would want to come regardless of if we got birds or not. Then two buddies want to come but they are probably expecting to kill birds haha. We're in the quad cities.

    South Dakota pheasant success pics please

    Yeah I saw all that land by Aberdeen but wondered what the hunting pressure would be like. When in the season did you go? We would probably skip the opening week.

    Group size is good to know, we will have at least four people but only one dog (mine).

    You would also think the conical shape of a bell tent would be better than the vertical walls on a wall tent for dealing with the wind.

    I also want to know about Bell tents. Some seem to be geared towards "glamping" but only a few mention hunting use. I'm sure they work for hunting too but how do they hold up for back county use compared to wall tents? Is there a reason more guys are using the wall tent vs bells? They seem a lot...

    South Dakota pheasant success pics please

    I had a bland and uneventful pheasant season here in Eastern Iowa. My puppy has done great on preserves but nothing on public land but a few track-point-track-points of running birds that I never actually saw. I really wanted to kill a wild bird over her but just couldn't get it done with the...

    night mode?

    The bright screen on this forum kills my eyes at night. I swear there used to be a night mode that would make the screen background black with light colored graphics. I can't find this feature any more. Am I imagining this? Where can I find it?

    Lets see your hunting/daily driver rig (Pics)

    Just bought this R51 Nissan Pathfinder, 2011, one owner, 125,000 miles. Seats fold flat for sleeping but I might add a platform for storage underneath and sleeping above. I was looking really hard at the Xterras which have the solid rear axle but after seeing how popular these are in other...
