I bought a used 30-06 boat paddle around 10 years ago for $450.00. It has since been turned into a 35 Whelen with an addition of a nice recoil pad like the one in the pic above. Probably not worth much now but I always wanted a 35 Whelen and didn't need 3 different 30-06's in the safe.
I had a young Whitetail buck my Dad harvested & a Cow elk I harvested tested and both were not detected for CWD. Took about 4 weeks for the results.
The office in Lewiston is worth a look just for the taxidermy.
This reminds me when I sold a bunch of precious metal & sent it by
usps and it did not make the trip to the new owner. It wasn't fun refunding the $$ but the box was empty on the other end.
Thanks for the info, I should have thought about that for a second before posting. You probably aren't releasing them by hand as they seem kind of pissed when trapped. After seeing this one I got up close I wouldn't want any part of those teeth or claws.
Curious how do you tell the difference between male and female from a distance? Wondering because I had one checked by fish and game the other day and took him a bit to find the male parts. It was a younger cat.
I leave mine loaded all season which is around 18 days or so. I always check that the bullet has not moved before going into the field. Has always fired on the last day for me if I don't have any luck and have to put it back in the safe.
