Hello, I got a notice about this post on my email. I have not been active on this forum in a while as I have not had much to contribute but have lurked from time to time. My experience with Lyle was very positive. I first met him at the GAOS in Feb 2020. After some praying, soul searching... -

Wyoming GMU 41 between Shell Creek and Trapper Creek and Greybull
Thanks wyosteve. There didn’t seem to be much on google map for eateries. The cartoon is for you bdan68. Indian summer, I agree with your sentiments exactly. I have had good/great guided elk hunts but the ones that my buddies and I did on our own were the most fun. Figuring out what the elk... -
Wyoming GMU 41 between Shell Creek and Trapper Creek and Greybull
My buddy got a rifle tag for end of September in this area. I am helping driving him out and back and will hang with him during the hunt. Its actually for a ranch between these creeks. Looking on the maps, a lot of the area looks arid compared to what I have experienced elk hunting but that... -

Truck camp packing list
Most of these ideas apply for larger tents ie wall tent A Mr Buddy heater with an 18 lb propane tank takes just enough chill out of the tent to help sleep at night. Also nice if you are weathered in your tent for the day. A propane lantern can really heat up the tent and dry your gear on a... -

how quick have you had to take shots
Curious how quickly people have had to take shots. Of my hunting buddies and myself, the majority of our shots have been quick shooting scenarios and standing. 7 elk have been taken while standing where the shot window was only seconds to decide. 1 bull was taken while seated but it had been... -
300 win mag factory elk ammo
A lot of ammo will work well out to 350 yards for “minute of elk”. You could buy Remington corelokts and shoot a lot given their price compared to other ammo. They now come tipped so better BC. I have taken elk from 40 yards to 360+ yards with the original corelokts. That said, I went with... -
2022 Best Bull Elk Hunt Photo Contest, by Kifaru
24 years of applying for preference points in GMU 61 in Colorado. I only got in this year due to a re-issued tag. That’s my outfitter/guide. Besides the head and antlers, he packing out a hindquarter. He’s a stud. The euro mount weighs just shy of 22 lbs. I was dragging up the rear with a... -
How many shots ? ?
All my elk ( except one recurve bow kill) have been with a 300 WM: 180 gr Winchester fail safes( Dave Petzel called them "the wrath to come"), 180 gr Remington core-lokts, 180 gr Nosler trophy bonded. Shots ranged from about 40 yards to 360 yards. A spike was spined on first shot so had to... -

New Magview Gear Digiscope?
So I bought one. Super easy to set up . Takes good photos with my iPhone 13 pro The eyepiece is of course bulkier thanks a plain lens cap but still fits in my custom spotting scope cover. -
pack pad odor
I have a Mystery Ranch pack that I used on my sheep hunt. It has a main pad in the middle of the pack. Now every time I wear it and sweat, it emits a very powerful ammonia like smell. Once it dries it is barely noticeable to me. I have tried soaking it in cold water and Dawn dishwashing... -
New Magview Gear Digiscope?
This product looks very interesting. However, I would think that repeatedly attaching and detaching the steel plate will eventually magnetize it some, particularly if a stroking motion is used to attach and detach the cellphone -
How far was your average sheep shot?
Looking back at my spread sheet, 100% of my dall sheep were shot at 212 yards with an average of one shot -
shot density between 2 shotguns and brand shotshells
Per the Retay website, the barrel is deep forged which they say is better than hammer forged, and the forcing cone has been lengthened over standard at the factory- Indyal

shot density between 2 shotguns and brand shotshells
I got the duck hunting bug and compared a Remington 870 with Carlson Mid range choke and a Masai mara with factory modified choke. I was surprised at the difference between the two shotguns as well as variation with different brand shotshells. Yes, I know its not scientific or statistical but...- Indyal

Fairbanks Hotels w Freezer Space
in 2020, the fur tannery stored my cape and dall sheep horns. My outfitter had a freezer so I did not store the meat there. The fur tannery person I spoke with to get my cape and horns shipped was very easy to work with. Can you call them to see what they will do? -
Sheep hunt gun recommendation
I would add shoot the one you shoot the best...without a benchrest. I shot my dall while lying prone and facing slightly uphill on loose scree. I had to reposition several times because I kept sliding downhill. From your tagline do you live in Indiana? If so, send me a PM
