    What do you get when you’re caught in a major mountain storm?

    Besides. It’s archery deer here in California and everyone knows it never rains in California 😂

    What do you get when you’re caught in a major mountain storm?

    Equipment wise we had a winch, high lift jack come along. 200 ft of Mule tape, 2 shovels and a chain saw. With the amount of water 💦 coming in and shifting sand now of it was any help. Plus up the hill was 3 or 4 large rocks in the water channel, so we thought it prudent to bail and come back...

    What do you get when you’re caught in a major mountain storm?

    Just a 2 hour thunderstorm with 4” of rain on top of a previous storm that dumped 3”. Both sides of road were under over a foot of water and two old geezers. After hiking the 3 miles to the top of the mountain road back to camp this is what we were faced with. Yeah, we got it out with no...

    So…what have you old timers done with the grandkids lately?

One of the older granddaughter raced BMX this weekend, she’s busy with that, cheer and school so won’t be hunting this year. The other 2, 1 14yr old girl the other 16 yr old boy are both rehabbing from sport...

    Switching from pickup to jeep wrangler

    Had 2 whole cow elk (minus lower legs) stuffed in a CJ7, drop down tailgate. Also had 2 cows on a hitch rack on my JK supported by a winch on the roof rack. Both times were problem free on a 70 mile road trip at 65 mph.

    Probably Going Crazy, But Looking for Suggestions

    Wasn’t sure if you were trolling or not but now I’m asking, WHEN AND WHERE ARE YOU MOVING? I believe in the Holy Spirit so I don’t disbelieve in them. Nor do I disbelieve in Sasquatch or 👽, it’s possible. On another tangent I believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, all...

    Tagged Out or Tag Soup

    For years I shot the first legal animal I saw. First couple years after I moved to Montana I waited for the bigger or odd racks, now I don’t shoot anything unless I’m in the mood. Sounds crazy but I’ve passed 4x4s and later shot a forky, other times it was the first animal I saw be it spike or...

    What keeps you from hunting OTC California?

    Looks like I’m going to be forced to hunt Kali this year. My tenants are moving out, now I’ve got to go get the house ready to sell, so will be there a couple months or so. Wife told me to make sure I had my bow, rifle, shotgun and fishing gear.

    What keeps you from hunting OTC California?

    Nothing comes to mind, I lived there until 14 yrs ago. Now, if I’m in Kalifornia and want to hunt I do. But, realistically I can say that about anywhere I go. Being old and retired does have its perks.

    4 door Jeep question

    Love my 2014 Rubicon JK 4 dr unlimited. It goes places I shouldn’t but always gets me back. Lots of highway mile back and forth from Montana to Vegas to Fort Worth and back too. That being said, I would never say it’s really all that comfortable, although not intolerable. But I don’t recommend...

    Rental Car - loss/collision damage waiver

    Only insight I have is this; Henderson and Vegas are just one big Kamakazee race track, most posted speed limits are a suggestion, 65 mph expect 75 to 90 mph traffic. Unless you’re lucky enough to be in rush hour then it 0 to 55 with sudden stops. As for the insurance, sometimes I get it...

    Bird dogs ankle...break or sprain

    Not on a dog but had a horse bitten on the shoulder by a Rattlesnake. The bite was obvious and became a fairly large weeping sore and hair loss. Also loss of appetite for a couple days but fully recovered. If you can’t find any bite indicators IMO it’s not likely to be a bite but then I’m not a...
