Big ol Burban?
Back a page or so there was some talk of tire size for the Burban. Not sure if you have a lift or how much clearance you have, or gears for that matter. If you have a 4.11 or 4.56 rear gear Coker makes a very good off road/highway 900x16. Lots of ground clearance, I ran them on an old Dodge...- Bill Zent

ISO new front leaf springs for 1971 Dodge W200 4x4
Thank you for the responses! I am not good with this puter stuff so will have to make some phone calls in a week or so, more pressing issues to deal with this week. Dave, if the place you mention is the one I think it is..........I have dealt with them in the past and I thought I made a...- Bill Zent

ISO new front leaf springs for 1971 Dodge W200 4x4
Old springs are flat, 1" from rubber stop. Where can I find replacements for a soft ride. It is a ranch/hunting truck (Dodge 4x4 3/4 ton) and never hauls heavy loads so maybe a softer spring is available?- Bill Zent

Hunt Talkers get their bear
I have posted free Idaho hunts going back to the early 90's on the old NAHC site and others. In the last 16 years I have only had two takers, Dave N in 2007 got his bear with a ML and this year Muskeez arrowed a shinny black bear with the perfect coat ! One of the prettiest blacks I have ever...- Bill Zent

A wyoming legend is gone
We need more collared deer after seeing what she contributed. I have a wild whitetail doe on my ranch that has never left. She is 14 years old and has had triplets three of the last six years. I suspect by her size May 30 she had triplets again. She may be free roaming/wild, but comes when I...- Bill Zent

Any car salesmen here?
Dave Did you ever think about a wig and some makeup? It may have been cheaper to add your hubby "Dave's" name to the title rather than cough up $331? ;) PS....My best two bait sites loaded with goodies yesterday, each with two trial cams so we should have pictures soon. Clay and daughter at...- Bill Zent

AYA Over Unders………
In 1960 my Dad bought my brother and I each an AYA Matador in 16ga with a single trigger that fired the modified before the full. Never a problem, great guns. -

Favorite Elk Calibers
Being born during WWll I guess you could say I am old school. Wow, have things changed in the hunting world. I started hunting at a very young age, being taught the art by a granddad, several of his brothers all born in the 1800's and my father. In their youth they had to make every shot count... -

Well, it's not good. Not religious but prayers are welcomed.
Dave, having know you and Lori for several years I cannot add more than what has been expressed in these posts. I get choked up thinking of what you are going through. Strength and peace be with you Buddy, Bill Zent- Bill Zent

Dave, What Gellar wrote are also the thoughts from this house. Dave has faithfully been there for Lori's care for two years, what a MAN. Dave was a true friend on our first handshake several years ago when he and Lori came to visit Idaho. We all had a great time and I have missed them and their...- Bill Zent

Suggestions for a quail gun?
If you like to miss..........get a single shot and your thinking should change. And don't think you need three shots. A bird in the hand.......... -

Bear baiting question
I was referring to the OP's question of getting scent in trees. Dave, I may look dumb, but that is camouflage so people don't waste my time picking my brain. :) Red Fox and TheTone, Not only do I put lots of grease around the barrel for the bear to spread around the mountains I do one...- Bill Zent

Bear baiting question
Way back in my younger days............I built a fire under a Ponderosa, cooked bacon and trout for lunch when I baited. Then added that grease to deep fryer grease from a Chinese cafe, some honey, and other good smelling stuff with water in a big coffee can and boil. The steam will transfer all...- Bill Zent

Moose and game bags
The question of what type of bags to use depends on the hunt. A mediocre bag may suffice if you drive to your camp and will load meat in your truck. A long float trip of handling bagged meat daily or dragging them in and out of a super cub having good bags is a must. The same with packing on...- Bill Zent
