Do you keep a journal during your hunts? The detail is impressive but the really fantastic part about all your write-ups is the introspection. The description of how you feel at various points really makes it relatable and makes it more than just a hunting story. 10/10 writing.
The way federal regulators allow companies to behave would absolutely change. If you remove guardrail on a cliff, it doesn’t change the speed of drivers going around the curve but it sure as hell changes the outcome.
I love those pronghorn mounts. I don't have the space for shoulder mounts in general, but I also prefer the look of euros in most cases. But when I shoot a pronghorn buck worth mounting, that'll be my one shoulder mount and the poses you have are perfect.
Yep. I'll put like 2500 miles on it this year, so the cost of registration and insurance is probably worse than the gas per mile, but it'll get a lot more use next year when we don't have newborn. My wife's 7-year-old Rav4 is like $250 annually, and I just did permanent registration on my...
My truck registration was $550 this year. It'll be less next year because it'll be over 5 years old, but they really nail you as the GVW increases here.
Second kid just started daycare and we pay it with the same Costco visa as most of our gas. It's always a little eye-opening reading the price on the pump, but it fades quick and feels like a blip when the statement with $2500 in daycare comes.
I can’t imagine how thin an Antelope flatiron would be! I’ve done it with deer a time or 2 but decided it wasn’t worth the effort. I’ll do it for elk but nothing smaller.
Not particularly helpful for your hunt this season, but if you get them in store in the summer, they’re more like $30 or maybe $40. I was in the same boat looking at the start of hunting season and couldn’t stomach the online price, so I just decided to forego them but found them way cheaper...
$4.85 for 87 at Clearwater on Friday. Made the 8.5 mpg in my gasser tow rig pretty painful, but not sure the math maths for diesel mpg's when diesel was $6.04. Filled up in Seeley on the way back for only $4.39.
I have an older Wolverine X4 with the glass OEM windshield - I think that’s the only realistic option for a tight seal and if you want to potentially add a full cab in the future. Definitely need a rear window as well, as just having a front sucks in dust like crazy.
The thing that confuses me is what happens with suppressors bought in states that have no form 4 but then brought to states that do require it? Like if I lived in Idaho and bought a can, but then moved to Montana, would I need to file a form 4 for the suppressor I already possess? Even if the...
