    Parasite in elk meat?

    "rice breast" typically looks like orzo pasta. Upon zooming in, I see yours has a zig-zag to the cysts. I have never seen that before. No way I'm eating that.

    Wy Trespass fee

    Hey, uh... I was wondering... How much is the ticket for trespassing? 😆

    Wy Trespass fee

    That's not what he is asking. He is asking where he can find a landowner to pay for access.

    Wyoming grizzly attack

    I don't believe I have seen this one on here. A father and son were elk hunting outside of Meeteetse when they were charged on October 3rd. They both credit the son for having a round in the chamber of his 10mm.

    Parasite in elk meat?

    I don't. They say it's safe though. There's a link to it in that same Alaska site page.

    Parasite in elk meat?

    Sarcocystis is what I was thinking of, but my link above is for tapeworm cysts. Sarcocystis is called "rice breast" in ducks. That's what your meat looks like to me.

    Venison Heart - Recipes?

    I usually do the same as sndmn. The best one I ever did was slow smoked up to temp. Then, sliced and seared hot.

    Trophy Elk: What's it to YOU

    The "worst" shows for me are the ones where some fat guy with a fanny pack is passing huge bulls because "it's just not what we're looking for." I just saw another one from Crispi where they "weren't sure" the bull was a shooter. Private land in northeast Wyoming. They did shoot it but it was a...

    Pope and Young or not?

    I happily shoot raghorns and cows. Every elk is one to be proud of. @Caseknife It's just the lighting. The only char there is what I did in the plaque.

    Pope and Young or not?

    I shot this bull with a rifle, but for reference, I believe he would also be short of P&Y. I had him at about 255". FWIW, I would call any young 4, 5, or 6 point bull a "raghorn." Last year, in Wyoming, I saw a 6 point that was proportional but the same beam length as a normal 4 point. I would...

    Transporting venison in a cooler

    @Teebs Don't put a warm quarter in a cooler. That will only encourage spoilage. Let your quarters cool while hanging in fabric bags. Pre-chill your cooler with ice or put it in a deep freeze. When it's time to put the chilled quarters in a cooler, keep the fabric bags on and put them in...

    Shotgun optics with slugs

    https://swfa.com/swfa-1-4x24-ss-illuminated-mil-quad-dm-reticle-30mm-1-mil-clicks/ I've posted this before but... I think this would make a great slug gun scope. I have one on an AR-10 and wouldn't hesitate to buy another for a similar use.

    Best Mono Bullet for Hunting/Effective Kills

    Has anyone on here ever shot game with Black Hills' 130gr Dual Performance? @Formidilosus I have about a box of it in my ammo tub, it didn't group for me as well as some others but I have always been intrigued. It's an open tipped copper but the opening is very prominent with a claimed...

    Stone glacier Chilkoot 32 or 15? for September Elk hunts

    I have thought about adding the 32 for short backpack hunts, with the intention of wearing my puffy jacket and pants in it to reduce bulk in my pack. I have never regretted having the 15. It can snow anytime in September. If I'm cold and wet, I want to know I have more insulation waiting for me.
