    White mallard dekes for snow geese

    @KurtR What do you like better, the divebombs or the sillosocks? I feel like they both have strong points but most of my experience is with sillosocks.

    Sold Argali carbon knife

    @murf45 I would say that the retention is strong. It is not really difficult to insert or remove.

    White mallard dekes for snow geese

    https://skyflydecoys.com/assembled-snow-goose-windsock-decoy.html ^$36/dz You have to think about storage and transport also. In the space that one can store 4dz floaters, you can probably store 40dz socks. I've been down the "make your own decoys" road. It never turns out like you imagine...

    White mallard dekes for snow geese

    I have had good hunts over a couple hundred socks or full bodies. You really need to be around 500 minimum. In anything other than the perfect set of conditions, four dozen is not enough.

    White mallard dekes for snow geese

    Are you talking about mixing the floaters on land? If so, just buy more socks or silhouettes. Floaters for snows turn into a lot of work. If you have a permanent spread spot, maybe.

    White mallard dekes for snow geese

    Don't bother. Unless you were going to do hundreds of them or buy a bunch (dozens at least) of regular snow floaters and wanted to add some fillers. A couple of dozen isn't going to be worth the time/effort/any expense.

    Memories you made in the last year?

    As a whole, I feel like I haven't had a very good year in 2024. Mostly, it's all been related to a general feeling of burnout in my work life. Unfortunately, that rippled through a lot of the rest of my life. On the bright side, looking back my year in the outdoors has been very good. Bright...

    Merry Christmas to yourself?

    I wouldn't get anything I actually want if I didn't buy it for myself. This was the year of new optics for me. Spotter, rangefinder, binoculars, rifle scope. Most recently, I snagged the Maven scope everyone loves. I still need to find a new rifle to put it on...

    Rutted elk hide thickness

    I have never noticed a difference in the density of their actual hide from beginning of September to end of November. Hair length and density certainly increases from late summer to early winter. Elk neck hide is pretty tough stuff anyway. I have also never measured it and can't imagine...

    My dog destroyed my euro mount!!

    That is pretty ugly. I was imagining he wrecked from the nose up towards the eyes. In that case, skull cap it and do the leather wrap on the a plague.

    How many run a Winch on the truck

    You never know when you might need four jerry cans, six recovery boards, a shovel, axe, pulaski, and roof tent on your skeleton topper thing. Definitely don't forget the exhaust snorkel, buffalo bumper, and winch. Sounds like every rich kid I see driving around town.

    How many run a Winch on the truck

    I hunt fourth rifle most years. I've never needed a winch, nor wished I had one. I did have a sketchy drive on an icy road this season. A little more slide and I might have wished I had a winch. It was definitely a time where I should have had chains on (which I don't even own).

    Trekking Poles

    Fixed length doesn't make any sense. You want to be able to extend them for going down or shorten them when going up. I use aluminum Leki.

    6.5 prc reticle

    BDC reticles are retarded. Your holds end up being random distances. 278, 327, 416, blah, blah, blah If you don't shoot enough to be proficient, stick with the duplex.

    My dog destroyed my euro mount!!

    Scratch his ears, give him some treats, and tell him he's a good dog. Lesson learned. I would just leave it as it is and hang it up.
