This time last year I had the thrill of seeing Successful for RMBHS - still gives me goose bumps and soooo many memories. Pumped for those who drew! Give it hell - starting now!
WoooowwwoooooWWeeeeeeeeWaaaaaahhhh!!! Nice work! Sounds like an awesome time and you made it happen! Great ram! Savor those memories for years and years to come.
Did my own instant oats and granola options for this years hunt breakfasts. Stuck with ramen and tons of snacks for lunch. I tried a ton of freeze dried dinners and my favorites continue to be peak. That said, mashers with a package of chicken and dehydrated green chile also hits the spot...
Man, this is a sensitive and personal topic for me. When my dad passed, I was only 26 and it was an absolute sh*tshow. Not that there was much to be left, but apparently he opted that taxes weren’t for him the last many years of his life. Little did I know that Uncle Sam still finds a way to...
Not sure about favorite, but damn good. Need to explore more to determine which is the best.

.338 Marlin Express. I know it’s overkill but also sentimental. My Dad purchased this gun a few months before he passed - wanted a fun lever action to use for elk. That gun has found many elk down over the last 12 years since and I wanted to use that for a ram as well.
Feeling like a new person, we got loaded up and headed up to the trailhead. The weather was amazing as we hiked in the 7.5 miles. We set up camp a little over 12,200’ and made our way up to a glassing point mid-afternoon to catch the evening action. That night, I had the biggest sheep tease of...
