    Shoulder Mount pose for rutting mule deer suggestions

    Full sneak or semi-sneak looking left would look good on that buck. Cool buck and great photos. Congrats.

    Budget .308 bolt action recommendations

    Just a suggestion, but increasing your budget $100 might get you into a Tikka T3X Lite. They typically run a rebate, although I think the recent one ended in October. Integrated mounting system built into the receiver and you’d be way ahead of many of the options listed, though the Howa would...

    Crossing State lines & Euromounts

    Not hard at all to find YouTubers that seem to struggle with this too. Have seen more than a few shows where the hosts follow up with the animal back home, doing euros, deboning quarters or otherwise. Not throwing stones, but from personal experience I think the Average Joe that buys a tag and...

    Well this is new to me

    Missed business opportunity for an E-Bike rental service. The pack llamas of the East.

    Crossing State lines & Euromounts

    Might not be your thing, but another option is to skull cap it and use one of the reproduction skulls. I’ve done dozens of euros over the years and started doing this a few years ago. On the wall it’s surprisingly hard to tell the difference when hanging next to the real thing, at least on deer...

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    You can expect the Chasing 49 crew on your street next spring. Great Instagram photo op in front of the HOA sign. #suburbanthunderchickens

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    You don't even have to ask the questions, you can look at what they're wearing and immediately tell which YouTuber they follow/worship.

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    The decades of influencing, pre and post social media, surrounding the “need” for Quality Deer Management/QDM has potentially contributed to as much loss of access east of the Mississippi as all the major housing developers combined.

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    Serious question, as I agree with habitat loss being A problem, which leads to access issues, but not THE only problem. How does influencing more consumptive (keyword - because in my observation there’s more of these than the ones doing the work) users onto a smaller landscape of habitat and...

    Antelope and Rattlesnakes

    Had this same question several years ago on my first antelope hunt. Warden for our unit assured me that he was in the field over 300 days a year and could count on one hand how many he’d seen. Second or third day of the hunt, my Dad shoots his buck and my buddy and I are dragging it to a nearby...

    Probably the most beautifully marked bobcat I've ever seen

    One if the coolest critters in the woods to watch if you’re lucky enough to see one.

    .243 load recommendations

    Have had luck essentially duplicating the Barnes Vor-Tx factory 80gr TTSX load using Ramshot Hunter.

    What scope advice / thoughts

    Grew up with my Dad shooting one of those as a kid, the infamous Mississippi Wound-a-Matic as they were known in these parts, though not in his case as his actually shot surprisingly well without the common issues they’re known for. Sadly, standard era optics would have been a Bushnell or Tasco...

    Does your state include seniors on youth day?

    Not legally, but you sure she a lot of this every year on youth weekend: “Really proud of my 6 year old. Went out with his PawPaw and bagged this 18” wide 8 point at 275 yds with ‘his’ 300 Ultra Mag.” Kid in the picture, noticeably distracted with a GameBoy in one hand and a bag of Skittles in...
