Elk….Bow or Muzzleloader
I think this is a great comment to reflect on just how different hunting elk and deer can be. Deer hunting is all about stealth and finding an advantage. Archery can be viewed sometimes as giving up that advantage. Archery hunting for elk in the rut, however, puts you in the position of... -
Elk….Bow or Muzzleloader
If you are experienced bowhunters, I think that would be the way to go. Up close and personal is how Sept elk were made to be hunted! Nothing like it. You do have to be OK with possibly seeing a bull out at 80, 90, 100 and knowing if you had a muzzy, it coulda been over. But I think bowhunters... -
Lash345 is a scammer!
I'm confused. Was it just the request for friends and family that upset you or were you actually scammed in the end? I have asked for friends and family payments from people. One benefit is that it protects the seller from a scammy BUYER claiming they didn't get something when they did (never...- Bullshot

Ran its course, now in the weeds.
I skipped to the end here, but still thinking of the original question. I recently did the "dumb" thing too and paid off my ~4% mortgage that I had since around 2010. Stress-wise, one of the better things I ever did and it simplifies financial planning elsewhere and provides peace of mind if...- Bullshot

Swift Sciroccoll Bullets
Was loaded in the most accurate factory ammo in my 7mm and also good in my 6.5. Factory ammo with this bullet in my particular 270 didn't group. I've taken a muley and pronghorn with them. Good bullets, expand well, and retain weight. hunt them with confidence for just about any game if they...- Bullshot

Comment on Wetlands Protections by January 5th
It's worthwhile to knowledgeably comment (see my next post on summary) but there is nothing stopping a state or often even a county or municipality from regulating wetlands more strictly than the fed govt, and would be a potentially far more effective use of time and money lobbying for increased...- Bullshot

North Ohio whitetail?
Lots of parks as said might provide opportunity. There are some very big whitetail deer in Ohio, and lots of public forest in places further south. If you like hunting big fox squirrels, OH is your place too! Some good fishing for steelhead, salmon, trout, walleye, perch, in NE Ohio too. -

OnX accuracy
And another thing, comparing a point taken by one device to a point taken by another device is meaningless unless you are comparing data in the same system or using a proper conversion. You can set this on your GPS and see what I mean. For example, if you take a point in WGS84 and plot it...- Bullshot

OnX accuracy
That last one is always misunderstood. Photo basemaps have all been cut and rendered and or stretched to some degree to be accurately geo referenced based on whatever datum/coordinate systems and projections are in use. They are often damn good. But it's easy to see significant differences from...- Bullshot

Afraid of the dark??
Thank you for saying this. I had this happen when I was hiking in to a deer spot as a late teen / young twentysomething. Blood curdling screaming sounded like a woman being killed violently about 50 yards ahead of me in the dark. Almost like "NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" in the most loud, high pitched and...- Bullshot

Afraid of the dark??
Things can be scary in the dark that might not be so serious seeming in the light of day. It's not a deep woods story but I was def scared in Idaho one year, tent camping with two buddies off the side of a dead end FS road. At about 3 in the morning, I woke when I heard an ATV or similar vehicle...- Bullshot
