    Hey Randy,
    Saw that you had hunted Unit 46 in Idaho during the December rifle hunt for Bull Elk and I was one of the lucky guys to draw that tag this year. I have some spots picked out and am really looking forward to it, just wanted to pick your brain on what to expect if at all possible. Thanks!

    Hey Randy,

    Sorry to bug you. I am trying to get some billing issues figured out with outdoor class and haven’t had a response for about 8 days now. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I miss my account!

    Hello Randy , Hope all is well with you and your family . What is the max distance that you will shoot your 308 while hunting ? I noticed you using a 308 caribou and moose hunting , I am impressed . The 308 gets bashed a lot from the experts . My max shot is 224 yds on a mule deer . Thanks for All you do for Conservation .

    My maximum, under perfect conditions is 400 yards. I prefer closer. Thanks for following along with our content. Good luck in 2024.

    Randy,
    I'm enjoying my Fresh Tracks + membership. Is there a way to get a direct message through?
    I'd like your perspective on donating to the various conservation/state agencies as an out of state hunter and this forum doesn't allow for lenghty questions. Thanks for all your efforts towards public land access.

    Thank you. I must be dumb, ignorant, or maybe both. I don't have that option. I must need to make more posts.

    Hello Randy, appreciate all the content you put out, very informative and insightful. Was curious as to what your take is on the winter kill that affected Wyoming and Colorado this past winter in terms for the elk? I am looking at doing hunts in both states in the near future and was wondering how much of an effect this past winter would have on populations and preference points (mainly Wyoming in terms of points)?

    Randy, I’m looking to use 150gr Nosler partitions for my AZ Bighorn Sheep hunt but I’m having trouble finding quantity to practice with, ~200-250 rounds I recon. Noslers website says they’re unavailable. Any chance you can help with this?

    Hello Randy , Just watched Mattews Nev. pronghorn , congrats to him on an excellent buck . The interaction between you ( Father ) and him ( Son ) is far greater than the animal . The time and memories are priceless . Thank you both for the Greater Lessons and your wife for sharing you guys with us ( and Scott Jones ) ( You can get away with Even More with Grandkids , that is a Totally diff. Level )

    Randy,

    When you use Beau's llamas to go backcountry, what is your wall tent and stove setup? What tent and stove do you use? Do you cut lodge poles from trees or pack in the OEM poles? Thanks!

    We use Beau's tents and stoves that you see on his website. It is very packable. We don't have to cut trees. Here is a video of the tents we use -

    I know it doesn't get me much.

    hi Randy
    do you have another handle besides big fin? I see last one is Dec 9, 21. BTW, like that you are still showing your profession as CPA, even though the hunting stuff probably takes all of your days. yet, at least its good when you wan to pull stats ')

    Hello Randy,
    Really enjoying fresh tracks +
    I think of you and your family every time I come across the pine island road trapping and turn around in Big Falls. I am praying for your Mother and your family.
    Thanks again,
    Jim

    Hi Randy, just wondering if you will be making a trip out to TAC in UT this next week? Not sure if you attend those events but I plan on attending this year for the first time and if you are there would love to say hi. I still appreciate the tips you gave for my Bison Henry mtn hunt and also love the content you guys create! Thanks for all you do!

    Big fan of yours, Sir. You are an inspiration and I cannot thank you and your team enough for your content. You’ve taught me and my family many things, well beyond hunting. I’m in Belgrade, and if I could buy you a coffee and get a handshake and a photograph it would sure be an honor..

    Took a while to find a way to ask this question and I apologize if I have used the wrong avenue...This is my first year venturing out of my home state (AZ) and I got drawn for Rifle in CO for GMU 71. it's a post-rut hunt (10/16 to 10/20). e-scouting on Go-Hunt and plan a short trip in July to do on the ground scout. My question is... 1) Have you hunted this unit? 2) IF you have, any advice that may be specific

    Anyone have any advice for unit 71 in CO?

    Randy - I have recently started watching Fresh Tracks and love the shows. Sorry to hear about your health and will be praying for you. Hope you can bounce back! Your shows have inspired me to start looking into other states for Hunting opportunities and got my fingers crossed for an Elk tag in Colorado this fall! Thanks for all you do and hope to see new seasons of Fresh Tacks soon!

    I remember you working with an outfitter in Alaska on a sheep hunt a few years back, I believe it was Alaska Adventure Services but could be wrong. I am doing some research for a hunt of my own and was wondering if you could provide some feedback on your experience.
