Personally i like the idea of the inlines with the open ignition systems. And wish that there would be more consistent regulations with inlines across states. The ML laws are so ambiguous it’s actually insane when you compare it to archery or rifle regulations which are extremely consistent...
I bought a pair of the Cavallo hoof boots for the rears. I have my horses shod up front but they do get tender in the rear on the rocks which is understandable. I haven’t used them yet but looking forward to it.
The competitive endurance riders use hoof boots quite frequently and successfully...
We had a traditional wedding but i think we would have been happy eloping too. For how expensive weddings are, I’d elope and save the money. If i remember right our wedding costed 12-14k in 2018 and was basic. About 80 people. Didn’t have to pay for a venue, rented couple tents and...
I’ve never drank caffeine in my adulthood. Seems like the older i get the worse it makes me feel. Caffeine never has sat well. Even had to wind down soda and bottled tea as well the last couple years.
Always been light on the alcohol too. Might have one drink a year. Can’t even tell you the...
These “lower tier” optics have tendencies to do that also. They just aren’t as high quality as other optics.
Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to send it back and have it serviced. The scope should be basically clear on the low end and slightly fuzzy at the higher magnification but not terrible like...
4 or 5 years ago i shot a cow and we left it whole with the hide on in the bed of the truck. A bunch of the meat surprisingly spoiled even with it being high’s in the teens. First time that ever happened. I would skin quarter and put in game bags to freeze. Live and learn

I’ve done it in the past when life’s been busy. But I’ve also looked up in July and I’m still picking around the quarters. Everything processes fine but I’ve found it hard to get the motivation to finish the job. I try not to do it if i can avoid it.

Not a fan of Iron Will Broadheads. Shot 3 animals with them and all of them no to very little blood. Recovered all 3 but it was tough tracking. Switched back to Montec’s and have no regrets

I love our 338 Lapua too. Killed a lot of elk with it. Not sure how much it weighs but probably 11-12lbs If I had to guess. Been running the Berger 300 grain and they’ve been money.

In the past we’ve hunted leaving to and from the house. But it’s easy a 2 hour drive to our spot one way. Makes for a long day for marginal hunting.
There’s a few closer spots we do but then we’re fighting the high pressure crowds. It’s just ok.
Found it better just to take camp and drive 4...
Thank you! I haven’t packed an animal out yet myself but i have a hard time deciding if it is better to manty them up with a barrel hitch or get a set of canvas bags instead. At least with mantying there going to be way more secure I’d imagine

Yes 338 Lapua grouped right out of the box. No issues no BS have probably about 700 rounds though the gun. It’s 8 years old now

I would double check outfitters supply in Columbia falls. It looks like they have these panniers, or ones similar on their website. There just really expensive

Best of luck. My spouse and i really want to do this also.
Since you said your talking about multiple people going in on this property. Definitely would also get a partnership agreement in place and maybe put it in a LLC. Would consult with an accountant and/or attorney for those logistics...
1. I don’t think acreage size matter if your going to be hunting the public around it anyways. Unless you wanted more acreage for a barn to bring horses or needed to hit minimum to be guaranteed some sort of landowner tag.
2. You’d have to know the area pretty well to know how animals move...
They do take awhile to break in. And also for your feet to get used to the change. Don’t give up on them just yet.
I get my insoles made from the podiatrist. But was thinking on getting a pair of sheep feet too. Following to see other experiences on this thread
