    The Gohunt Effect

    This. I truly think it’s already come to and will just get worse, hunters must decide if they enjoy watching hunting media over actual hunting itself. I hope I’m wrong though and opportunity will get better regardless of the industry behind influencers but I don’t see how it’s possible. Theres a...

    The Gohunt Effect

    Here you go Dos. While gohunt isn’t specially in this data set, its a moot point. If you don’t think they are apart of diminishing opportunity then we can just agree to disagree I guess. Edit: good points above. Magazines and Eastmans certainly had their place in this. But today the reach in...

    The Gohunt Effect

    I dont untangle them, they are all the same. I will post up some data/graphs when I get a chance.

    The Gohunt Effect

    Its actually extremely simple and obvious. There's a clear and overwhelming upward trend in western hunting applicants starting in 2014/2015 when these services started along with ME and Newberg platforms. It wasnt when the internet was invented in the 90s, or facebook in the early 2000's...

    Yep. That’s why we lose a lot of battles.

    Snowpack not looking very good :(

    I’m no expert so take my interpretation of listing to biologist over the years with a grain of salt. Long term droughts are usually harder on fecundity rates than a bad winter. We’ve had a few bad winters in the last 4-5 years. This mild winter with lower than average snowfall isn’t as...

    wolf management debate

    I signed up for Tuesdays, although my wife is suppose or get induced with our 2nd that day if he doesn’t come naturally before. So it might be hard for me to make it lol. I skimmed through the OPs article. That woman (Madden) seemed very fair and objective, and these constructive conflict...

    Off Grid Food Co

    Me too. Still no one comes close to them in quality and taste in my experience. I wonder if they would send someone there recipes and methods for a price?

    5 elk shot and left to waste Idaho

    Japanese bamboo torture, rat torture, then finish them off with the brazen bull. All on live tv seems fair.

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    Doesn't seem to matter to the renewable crowd/corporations if its economically feasible or not, just as long as it fits the ideology and optics of "progress". If I sound like a right wing climate change denier, I am not. Its all too complicated and we still need oil for decades to come. Nuclear...

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    I won’t listen to a ME podcast but I bet there was almost zero pushback. It’s too bad about the TNC. While they do a ton of good work, at the core they are captured by an ideology now. Mandated Vaccines for employees, DEI nonsense, climate change, etc. Now they support destroying habitat in...

    Long Range Lead Slinging Story on Meateater Podcast

    As a teenager I probably would have done the same. As an adult/father I would not let my 16 year old take that shot for obvious ethical reasons. I had the biggest bull of my life two archery seasons ago (360-370 type bull) at 65 yards broadside feeding no clue I was there. I had my mind set at...

    CO OTC- going away?

    You’re right, I forgot about the CBA voice. Good point!

    CO OTC- going away?

    There is two points you’re missing. 1) the percentage in growth of rifle vs archery hunting OTC isn’t close. Keep hammerin 2) there are far more general recreational users in September.
