    Did it make the jump?

    The media has made a scene out of a pretty obscure and low level case report..I still think it’s interesting and i agree with the authors about more surveillance and testing.

    Did it make the jump?

    . id say that’s a fair criticism. The clickbait kind of language in the abstract is weak..also unfortunately pretty common these days. I’d blame the journal editors for punishing it like that. The bigger issue is the media, I don’t even know where to start there.

    Did it make the jump?

    I don’t see anything in the case report that would claim to “prove” they ate CWD infected deer meat. Where in the text do you feel they used too strong of language? Maybe in the objective where they suggest “exposure”? They pretty clearly describe in the methods section what they mean by...

    Did it make the jump?

    You’ve investigated and found that information to be false? People can choose to be alarmed or not. I post my opinions, just like everyone else on this site. I don’t have strong emotions about CWD. I’ll watch all this play out over my lifetime and will try to avoid eating a CWD deer. I won’t...

    Did it make the jump?

    Here’s how these things work. Ambitious medical student asks attending to help them get involved in a publication. Busy attending says here write up a case report on this rare/interesting/whatever case. I don’t have time to do it myself. Medical student writes it, attending etc edit it..and it’s...

    Montana (and other state) hunter orange laws out dated?

    No orange required in CA. I think they’re hoping we hunters shoot each other..

    Did it make the jump?

    Yup heart attack is probably what will end up doing most of us in! I wouldn’t mind if that happened while I was deer hunting in some beautiful country..if you had to choose

    Did it make the jump?

    Had not seen that one, reassuring overall 👍🏻 still would make me a little queasy to knowingly eat a CWD deer though

    Did it make the jump?

    I think the news article sensationalizes but that’s to be expected. The fact that two deer hunters in an (assuming) endemic CWD area died of CJD..when the incidence is 1-2 cases per million people..is very suspicious. With new diseases you have to start somewhere. if you understand prion...

    Did it make the jump?

    It’s interesting for sure. CJD is pretty rare..probably not a coincidence that these two guys both died from it. I am not aware of any reason CWD CANT infect a human. Hasnt been proven yet, but it would be fairly difficult and logistically impossible to prove conclusively that it can’t infect...

    Cold Bore Shots, POI Shifts, and Canted Scopes

    Torque it all down night before the match. Zero at 100 with 10-20 shots before the match. Start with box MV, maybe toss the first stage getting your dope correct and fix it on your app before the next stage. Probably will have a much better day, but I understand your hesitation to change things...

    Swaro STC “BIG EYES”

    Probably will be the btx..I need a couple more outings to be sure. I’m working on writing a comparison article and will go into depth on my thoughts..but BTX is to me slightly better optically, the big eyes are a more functional tool if they work for your eyes.

    Cold Bore Shots, POI Shifts, and Canted Scopes

    Sounds like the two unknowns are perfect zero and velocity

    Cold Bore Shots, POI Shifts, and Canted Scopes

    Gotcha. Personally I like to get 20 shots on the 100 yard target and a perfect zero. That group may be larger than you think it should..1.5-2 moa is not unheard of for a magnum. Either way it is what it is…from there you will KNOW if a shot is falling out of your expected cone of fire…hard to...

    Cold Bore Shots, POI Shifts, and Canted Scopes

    what does your 100 yard zero target look like? You really need a decent sized group at 100 yards to confirm your zero. Ideally the bullseye is obliterated. That is probably the most important step in the whole process otherwise it’s impossible to know where the error is coming from.

    Best material for Arizona heat trekking?

    Those kind of temps are my bread and butter for deer season around here. The cotton T shirt is a life saver and those Tiburon pants are my go to.

    Best material for Arizona heat trekking?

    How hot are we talking? Tiburon pants with the vents open are my choice if off trail..shorts and thin gaiters if not busting brush. On the top I’ll try to get away with poly T shirt and sunscreen if able. Otherwise the thinnest long sleeve possible. If it’s dangerously hot I bring a cotton...
