    2025 controlled hunts

    Yes. I would assume you'll have two next year. I don't want this to turn into a conversation about this, but 5 years ago I started putting in for them. I realized some of categories were high fence only and I don't want to do that. So I didn't send in for those again. I just checked and I...

    Tips on desert camping

    I used to work a lot in the desert doing field work. There's nothing like trying to sleep at a place at or below sea level in like 95 degrees in August after hiking 20 miles. Some pro tips: I like being covered by something. Go get some worn out to heck sheet and sew it into a sack if...

    E scouting for moose

    I'd say within a couple years would be prime. When it starts to get really thick they're just hard to see. I don't know what the cut off is as I know of a 15 year old hardwood clear cut that's just lousy with moose. It's thick enough you can't see 10 feet in front of you. I attempt to grouse...

    E scouting for moose

    Depending on the unit up there: Look for either fresh cuts or broccoli fields if it's not picked by then. Water is kind of everywhere depending. I've seen more new england moose away from water than next to or in. In other parts of the country I've only seen them in or right next to. Also...

    How Far is Too Far? Wyoming Legislature Mulls Shot Distance Restrictions

    Has anyone else been shot over? I was all set up for a shot at 300 when some guys shot right over my head who were at 6-700. Like right over my head. I was totally in the open as it was a prairie hunt. Probably a 170 mule deer which is huge for where it happened. Then they wanted help...

    Requesting Sleeping Bag/Pad Recommendations Please

    My wife and I have camped years of our lives due to the type of work we used to do and still do sometimes. It was often backpacking. It took us far too long to discover that really high end sleeping bags like western mountaineering or feathered friends are worth the extra money. There's not...

    ND Badlands

    Thanks! I don't trust onx 100% and maybe only 10% with roads. I'm just going to stick with federal and state ground (I know about the signs on state), out there as there's so much and why stress. She's aware she'll be stuck if it rains and I am too. Good to know on the water. I was...

    ND Badlands

    Any advice would be welcome. Or telling me I'm totally off with my plan. My wife wanted/wants to bike the Maah Daah Hey Trail. I was like awesome, sounds great, let's do it when I draw an any deer archery tag there. Well, I did this year. So while she's biking I plan on hopefully getting...

    Cheat Grass removal

    Zeiss, end of the road?

    The worst warranty experience of anything I've ever dealt with was Leica. They refused to warranty something. The lady in New Jersey you'd call was horrid. It got solved. My friend's parents from NYC/NJ heard me complaining about it and said I was far too nice to deal with NJ folks, and...

    Hunting gimmicks

    I'm setting up a bow and was finally going to break down and buy a bow vise. I did some googling and found that a lot of folks use a bike stand and a stabilizer. I'm like great, I have the best bike stand ever. Clever idea. So I thought about making a stabilizer and took a look on ebay at...

    Starting reloading - what to get next?

    I grew up reloading, so I had thoughts already and got most of my stuff used like you just did. I really didn't pay all that much. I like redding dies the best and that's what I use, but that's a preference. I have an RCBS trimmer. I don't love it and like others better. I load for accuracy...

    Facebook Marketplace Gold

    My buddy doesn't smoke, but got on some list with them for some reason. I don't remember why. Like 10-15 years ago he won a free week or so long trip for his wife and him to their ranch. They did all kinds of outdoor stuff. He thought it was hilarious as most people did smoke. He got a ton...
