    Unfollowing Hunting Social Media Will Make Hunting Better: Matt Rinella Essay

    For the sake of conversation and maybe introspection, a question for those opposed to Matt's view...bear with me: Hypothetical person A is generous with their money, generally speaking. Gives 10-15% of their income each year to educational aid organizations, a religious entity that helps...

    Unfollowing Hunting Social Media Will Make Hunting Better: Matt Rinella Essay

    @robby denning I think the questions you pointed to on the last page are valuable to ask ourselves even though they don’t have clear answers. How much is too much (publicity, exposure, salesmanship, etc.)? At what point is the experience cheapened by the media ecosystem that we’ve surrounded...

    Unfollowing Hunting Social Media Will Make Hunting Better: Matt Rinella Essay

    @KurtR Tag quotas have remained static or generally decreased over the last several decades, and seem likely to continue doing the same, with the exception of elk in some areas and for a variety of reasons. Quotas (resource) static or declining across the west, demand rapidly increasing = part...

    @KurtR tag allocations aren’t the same that’s my point. Media is dramatically influencing demand on a resource that’s diminishing for other reasons.

    @robby denning appreciate your replies. I think the concern many of us have is that hunting media is pushing demand higher and higher, taking more from the resource at an accelerated pace, but the resource continues to diminish. @Ryan Avery @Justin Crossley @Jared Bloomgren what do you think...

    It seems like these discussions usually get shut down before any hard questions get answered so it's nice to see some back and forth. It's your forum, delete this if you want, below will be both civil and honest, as it has been. Based on the 20 pages of feedback and lots of support for Matt's...

    Not elite in a financial or societal sense. More the fact that they are unable to receive or respond to critique, even when 100% relevant to a thread, without responding with ban threats, name calling, or disregarding completely. This is in contrast to Randy, who has provided thoughtful...

    Unfollowing Hunting Social Media Will Make Hunting Better: Matt Rinella Essay

    A great example on the extreme end of the spectrum requires nothing but looking at Rokslide's very own. Aerial scouting mountain bucks, selling coordinates, shooting far more than you can consume, etc. But hey if it's legal it's all good right? Just like the Boddington ram...

    Get your team together

    This my neighborhood. They say all the units are difficult access, but some would be FAR more difficult than others to get in and out of with a load. The whole North unit is best accessed by boat...think about that fun detail for Oct. and Nov. in WY. If you know what you're doing it won't take...

    Ditching Mid-Layers

    That time of year I'm generally in a light wool T, with a light 150 wt wool hoody, windshirt, and light puffy. Swap the windshirt for a rain shell if forecasted. The hoody and windshirt could be a mid or outer, depending on conditions. What's important is how stuff functions, not so much what...

    6.5 for elk

    Every once in a while I log back into Rokslide just to see if it's just the same old crap getting re-hashed. 90% by people that have no idea what they're talking about, 9% by people who do but take themselves way too seriously. Then there's a few like Huntsman and Tanner, thank God.

    At what yardage do you dial?

    I dial basically anything over 1 mil. For my rifles that's 300-350 yds, which is about where odds of having to hold wind start going way up.
