    Help with Nevada cow elk unit 78

    Been hunting hard last 3 1/2 days. Scouted the two days prior to the season. I have not seen anything. Have not heard a peep. Walked miles after morning hunt and I do see some sign. Soft drippings, some tracks. I have heard one shot fired since the season opened. This is my first elk hunt. I...

    It’s time to tell all the whiny hiny countries to shut up!

    I don't do Facebook. I was reading the "news" on sites I thought would be more careful about posting garbage. Albania and Algeria are two completely different places. Same as Alberta to Alaska

    I want to paint my house - roll/brush or spray?

    If you're painting eves, spray is the only way to get it done in a reasonable amount of time. Rolling keys it in better, and a more durable layer.

    What do you do for a living? How can you help?

    I was fortunate enough to sell my houses in Ca and use the liquidated equity to build a house in Nv. I built it by myself, no help whatsoever. My first house I had for 7 years. Second house less than 2 years. Put a garage on it and when it sold the profit was a good chunk of change. I'm sure it...

    Wilderness vs front country

    Cemeteries is where it's at. Every cemetery in buck country holds the biggest moss back buck. They are not dumb. They know where they're safe.

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    I was fishing with a friend. We were walking through a small creek in the shallows. He has a squeaky voice and he can talk loud. I was thinking to myself, chuck, you're going to call in a lion with that voice. Seconds later I rounded the bend and a massive lion casually crossed the creek at 35...

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    I've had a whale breach just a few feet behind me while in my kayak. Kayak fishing in the ocean is about as much fun as I can possibly have. Ab diving was fun til it got shut down. When I first started kayaking in the ocean I felt I little suspectable to the white sharks, but I'll say after...

    That's me and the ocean. Love every moment I'm out there, but there's always that pit at the bottom of my stomach.

    Getting paid ! Construction industry.

    Charge more. Eventually you'll have a pool of money big enough to buffer these jerks. I am in very high demand, and it seems people flock to me because my work is very good, and so is my price ( compared to most others) so in response I have bumped up my prices a little because clearly I'm not...

    Long shots

    Im sorry if my thread gave anyone the assumption I crack a shot at anything I see within a mile of me. I was simply trying to get some stories out of people to see what limits of range others have set for themselves. 450 is not an unethical shot if the circumstances are correct. If you think...

    Long shots

    I get your point. To be more clear about shooting ducks I had not seen yet, when they took off I could hear them when I turned my gun was pointed right where it needed to be. My first glance there was three Woodies took off right under my feet behind me. I saw the two, knew there was a third...

    Long shots

    My max on game animals is about 450. My hold overs are dead nuts up to 300. At 350-400 hold on the line of their back. 450, just a touch of daylight between cross hairs and the back. Any farther and I am not confident enough to shoot. I hate wasting meat and wounding animals. I don't do much if...

    Long shots

    Well, assumptions are just that. Your assumption makes an ass of you and me. Walking a ditch bank and having ducks take off behind you is a bit different than shooting blindly into bushes. I expected a smart ass comment, this is the internet after all.
