    NV Desert Bighorn tag

    Good luck finding a good one! Send me a message and I can share info on what I saw last year. The biologist for that unit was super helpful to chat with once I was able to get ahold of him. And also ran into one of the local sheep guides while out scouting. He had some good advice for me as...

    How ABSOLUTE LOW must one stoop?

    This was over 10 years ago in SW Colorado. A little north of Durango. Many of the locals knew who it was as soon as they heard the story. Was pretty well known for doing some real shady things in the backcountry.

    How ABSOLUTE LOW must one stoop?

    Man, what a bummer to have a hunt ruined in that manner! I hope he is able to get back out there and kill a big one! I had a hunt almost ruined in a similar manner a number of years ago. We had hiked in about 3-1/2 miles and set up a spike camp. We hung our food outside the tipi to keep it...

    Soft-sided coolers - recommendations

    I disagree on RTIC customer service. Between me andy my family we bought 3-4 RTIC soft sided coolers of different sizes. All the zippers failed, some even had the stitching come loose after only a couple of uses. The CS told us that since the items were more than 30 days since purchase that...

    Silver State Nelson Bighorn Tag

    Congratulations! You are going to have an awesome experience! Please keep us updated on your scouting and hunt. I didn't use a guide last year, but I did interact with Victor Trujillo on the unit. He was great to talk with and definitely knows sheep in NV. I would not hesitate to go with...

    Bedding area

    As the other folks replied, yes they will. Benches are where I seem to find bedding areas a lot, and they will still use it even after a fire.

    Mtn Lion Ban Filed in Colorado

    I don't live in CO but I do hunt there occasionally. I sent in some money to the CRWM folks to help fight this. I absolutely hate ballot box biology and this kind of attack on hunting. I lived in CA for a long time. Only lion I have ever shot was on a depredation permit because it was...

    Any guessing on Wyoming general point level?

    I'm sitting out WY this year, so it will probably be way less than I currently have. Lol! And next year it will jump up back up beyond my point level. Be just my kind of luck.

    If I apply for an Oregon elk hunt and I’m not drawn, can I buy a general season elk tag???

    As said already, yes you can. I've done it a few times.

    Conceal carry

    I often have one in the truck, but rarely carry on my person. With how much crazier things are getting where I now live, I should start carrying more often. I used to live in a small mountain town where I wasn't too concerned. But now, in a much larger place, there seems to be several...

    The year of "cast and blast"

    It is all an ebb and flow for me. The last few years I have had fewer high country archery elk trips with my core group of hunting buddies and more family oriented trips with my dad, brother and wife. I want to get back out on a good september archery hunt with the boys this coming year...

    Wading boots for AK float

    On a 16 day float hunt a decade ago, we used rubber soled wading shoes. The same standard lightweight wading shoes I use for fishing. We didn't have any issued with them, especially since we weren't hiking too far off the river anyway. Usually less than a half mile from the river, mainly to...

    Choosing an 8x32 Rangefinding Bino

    I have a pair of Swaro El Range 10x42 and love them. Last weekend I had the opportunity to look through some of the other EL range binos. The 8x32's were great! I will be getting my dad a pair here soon. You will not be disappointed with them.

    Dry January

    Congrats. Keep up the good work. I am now almost 6 years in and wouldn't change it for the world. I needed the change because I couldn't even make it halfway through Dry January without falling off the wagon in a bad way.
