    Smokin’ deal on Butt Out 2

    "Though 2'' longer than the original, the Butt Out 2 makes it easier to maintain a firm grip on the handle during field dressing chores. The enhanced ''Butt Stop'' feature molded into the handle makes it easier to keep the Butt Out 2 inserted to the proper length when removing the animal's...

    Stone Glacier pack or Exo Mtn and Why ?

    You will likely be satisfied with either. I chose Exo K3 4800 (Born and Raised edition) due to a close friend having the SG and saying he would not purchase the same pack again for the price he paid. It was more due to the size I think he had the largest one and he said it stuck too far above...

    Brother's ?

    There is a drop down on their site: "Collect samples by drilling into the core of the bone or antler to the full depth of a 3mm (1/8") drill bit. Don't burn the sample! Bone and antler shavings should be stored dry in unwaxed paper envelopes. Tape the envelope closed if you are worried about...

    Brother's ?

    Have no idea on pricing but you could send a sample to WGI in Canada and they could run parentage to see what, if any relation they have: https://wildlifegenetics.ca/sampletypes.htm

    ****OFFICIAL****2024 SPRING BEAR THREAD

    Nearly certain we did age them, to my knowledge we age all the bear teeth for FWP. FWP has sent some of the deer teeth to a different lab I believe, so perhaps some bear do not come to us. FWP sends black bear teeth in regionally and some of the regions use those reference numbers for the...

    And the lies continue..

    Sport Hunting? Seems to have worked well for fishing - so much so the pendulum is on the other side to where if a fly fisherperson eats a trout it is often frowned upon.

    Season prep has gone to the extreme

    Glad to hear you’re doing well! Have you heard of YouTube?? It’s the video version of the internet. Rabbit trails for years on there!

    Arbitrary Hunting Goals

    When I was a kid and still thought my dad was an admirable human worth aspiring to I wanted to kill 1 deer for every year of my age because that is what he had done and I always liked how he would state it. I abandoned that goal shortly after moving west and realizing he is not an admirable...

    Great Social Media posts?

    Montana FWP post today. I think because it uses the word "shot" instead of "chance" it has a mixed, and arguably egregious message (encouraging hunters to take a shot at an animal on a whim for a "chance") if you just read the photo part. Maybe just me?

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I definitely think this is all an improvement over what we have now. Thank you to all whom worked on this for your time and thought in putting this together. Anyway to word the pick your region to include all neighboring units around a region? Basically treat all regions as a ven-diagram to...

    2024 Sheds

    Got out yesterday for first time this year and first “real” hike since ACL and meniscus repair last July. Felt great to be out and always great to actually find what you’re looking for. They were 94 yards apart as the crow flys but I looked for nearly an hour then gave up and on my way out...

    Milk jug challenge.

    One a day? The version I saw with marine Mike was 100 shots at varying distances within 600 yards. Cold bore does seem to make more sense.

    NFA Wait Times

    My friend just applied for 3 cans on 4/02, got one approval each of the last three days and just picked them all up today, 4/05. He did them as an individual, not through a trust. Anyone else getting them this quick!? When I did mine almost 10 years ago it was well over 6 months. I told him...

    Hornady 7 PRC a Lie?

    Ooo, that makes more sense. I was thinking you were saying 3k fps for that.

    Hornady 7 PRC a Lie?

    Haven’t heard of this but this guy is getting 2965fps with the factory ELDX ammo in a 24” tube. I just had a 22” 7PRC built so hopefully I didn’t get sold snake oil. The snake oil I bought into was that these newer cartridges have smaller tolerances and it’s much easier to get really tight...

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    I’m confused. The stats are all LeBron has on Jordan now and all he ever will. You also state lower that defense is your reason for picking Buecker over Clark. Jordan actually played defense regularly. I’m from Ohio and was a huge LeBron fan. Looking back now I can see his opportunity for...
