    Archery Ibex Success!

    I'll start off with.... I posted this here cause its the closest animal forum that I could find. They are goats that live on a mountain up high! If it needs to go somewhere else please let me know or move it if you like. Last years live hunt thread was a bust since service was spotty on the...

    Need Ram Truck help

    Check out Body Guard bumpers too. Their traditional series is similar to ranch hand but offers a better approach angle. We've been happy with the one on my wife's truck.

    New Mexico

    Portales is a pretty good area for a hunting nut. I lived there for a couple years and didn't realize the potential until being there for a while. Ironically I still haven't hunted anything besides coyotes there, but might start applying for deer near there. Man I'd love to hunt some geese and...

    2017 Success Photos

    My first archery bull. Pecos Wilderness, NM 9500 ft. Heard a bugle so I started towards them doing a lost cow squeal and ran right in the middle of the herd. It became a target rich environment real quick! I shot this one then my buddy went after the herd bull and almost got him. thankfully...

    Hunting near the Mexico border

    LOL....The free ride home is no joke. They will wave down the BP for a ride to go back and get another load! It's ridiculous. We used to hunt near the border by Sierra Vista for Coues but stopped going about 10 years ago after my dad and Brother in law walked into a train of drug mules. That...

    New Mexico

    I'm in the North East corner of the state but would be up for a meet up some time with some other 'Sliders! I travel around the state some but mostly stay in the northern half and ABQ. Anyone else here from NM? I know there are a few more!

    Model 7 builds

    For short action cartridges the Model 7 is my favorite action to build on if rifle weight is a concern. If weight is not a priority then a custom short action makes a better platform. The 7 can be turned into an impressive lightweight performer though. I have built a couple that were function...

    Truck tires

    The Nitto Trail Grapplers on my Dodge Diesel have lasted longer than the other tires I have run on it. I think the rears are over 35k miles which I'm happy with as they kinda get abused! It is a ranch/hunting/exploring truck so the tires get some real torture testing. Recently I put a set of...

    Kodiak deer hunt 2017 questions

    We went to Kodiak in 15 and had the typical September weather I guess. I'm glad I took the Yukon layer as I wore it a lot of the time since it rained all but two days we were there. A pack cover is a great idea as mentioned above. I messed up and didn't put mine back on while packing out...

    NM Antelope proposal

    I'm all for it as it would allow more opportunity on public land and better trophy quality management on private land.

    Truck help please...which 4WD system for the money thatb has Auto

    Gear ratios in front and rear differential may be different on rare occasion but less than 3% difference is the recommendation. Any greater and damage will occur on hard surfaces. With that being said the gear ratios in stock vehicles are the "same". duchntr and bigdesert10 explained the bind...

    Wildfire smoke and elk hunting

    We came out of the Wilderness in Idaho a couple days early without a sheep doe to the smoke being too bad to glass but a few hours in the middle of the day. It was hard on the lungs and sinus hiking around in it. The fires have doubled in size since we were in there and are pushing a lot more...

    Reptiles/insects in northern New Mexico

    No problem! Let me know if you have any more questions. I've not hunted 50 but have hunted the units across the highway from it my whole life and spent a lot of time in 50 for fun and work so I'll try to answer the best I can. Oh, also another treat there is to glass off the Rio Grande Gorge...
