    How to go about antelope hunting for the first time?

    We were driving down a road that looked good to go on the gps, looked good to go on county map, but it had a fence right up to the road and a cattle guard grate thing across the road and then a big no trespassing sign on each side of the road. It threw us for a loop. We called the non emergency...

    How to go about antelope hunting for the first time?

    Go to the county website and print off a map of their county maintained roads to compare to your GPS and you are good to go.

    Xterra, Grand Cherokee, Other?

    I have a pickup with a topper now with 278,000 miles on it and it's been super reliable. I bought it from my uncle who was the original owner. I was originally planning on buying another truck and topper for camping in but when I looked back at how I have actually used my truck for the last few...

    Xterra, Grand Cherokee, Other?

    Hahaha unfortunately, I think you are right about gas prices. I actually was thinking about a subaru due to mostly hard surface driving but I'm just having difficulty choosing an AWD over 4wd option for when I am busting through snowy country roads here or unmaintained mountain roads out west.

    Xterra, Grand Cherokee, Other?

    I drove the Jeep today and didn't feel like it was that impressive. The xterra had 2w/4hi/4lo but this particular jeep was just 4hi. I feel like that dosn't offer me anything over a 4x4 tahoe or similar large 4x4 SUV other than better angles on approach/departure but I'm not going out trying to...

    Xterra, Grand Cherokee, Other?

    I've looked at a 2010 Nissan Xterra, checking out a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee tomorrow, roughly the same price but the jeep has 120k miles vs 150k on the Nissan. I will mostly be driving around town, gravel, snowy midwestern roads with one or two big hunting trips to the mountains per year. I...

    caliber suggestions

    I think the 280 Ackley would be fantastic choice but I don't handload so ammo options are slim and I could only find two rifles chambered for it for under 1k and I didn't like either of them. 280 Rem was my next choice but had the same problems as the ackley version. 270 Win was the next best...

    Glock with Rmr "red dot" users. Advice

    Look up sage dynamics on youtube. He has done some real torture tests and the only ones to really survive are the end and holosun. I think the holosun would be excellent if you are not wanting to spring for Trijicon

    Glock with Rmr "red dot" users. Advice

    You do not want a dot bigger than about 3ish moa. Dot size does not affect how quickly you can pick up the dot. That is based on form and muscle memory. If your form is inconsistent and you can't consistently place the dot in the window, then you can have a 15 moa dot and it will not help you. 3...

    Idaho Spring Bear

    so what would "later" be for a nonresident? Mid may? Late may? June? I appreciate everyone's opinions, this will be a 23 hour drive for me so I want to have the best odds to harvest but I suppose that's what everyone wants...

    Idaho Spring Bear

    I have two units I'm looking at. One is about 4000-6500 feet, the other is about 5500-8. I guess I will call the fish and game offices in that area to try an get an idea of what is typically accessible in each and when.

    Idaho Spring Bear

    Hold up. Hahaha, I got the opposite impression, that earlier hunts would be better due to having the snow narrowing down the possible places they could be and hunt the freshest green up below the snow.... Now I need some clarification because I can go early or late haha.
