    Road hunters

    Depends on what you mean by “road hunt”. I’ve “road hunted” a couple special permit late hunts for mule deer because it’s the best way to get around and see the most ground. I posted a pic in the deer forum of a buck that I killed close to the road cuz that is where the does were and he was...

    OnX is not always correct

    This might be a more reasonable example but in one county in WA in particular the land ownership data isn’t digitized, which means that OnX is working with interpretation of lot descriptions which netted me a visit from the local Sheriff and a handful of local folks while bird hunting a couple...

    Tikka T3x, superlite for Elk and Deer

    I’ve shot the ttsx 168gr 30-06, but that 150 looks like a good balance. Currently shooting the 145 LRX and it worked great this year on my elk. Al

    Barnes copper bullets?

    I’ve shot the tsx, ttsx and now the lrx in .243, 30-06, and 7remmag with very consistent results of dead animals having not made it very far from where they were hit. This years elk I again found the bullet just under the skin on the off side shoulder mushroomed but fully intact. They work for...

    Packs outside of the normal recommendations.

    The Mystery Ranch dram packs can be had on sale for right around that budget. I’d keep my eye peeled for them on sale. Patience pays.

    Road hunters

    I drew a special permit for elk here in WA a few years back. There were illegal camps, illegal use of atvs and deer hunters. I scouted the area well, knew where the bedding and feeding was happening and was able to kill my bull in some rugged ground 75 yards from a main road. This bull was not...

    Recurve Shooting

    Howatt Hunter #45, I like that it’s a local bow from here in the PNW before Martin bought him out. I shoot carbon arrows off the shelf, so it’s not true trad.

    Unit 27 Idaho

    I elk hunted this a couple years ago. Camped on the air strip 3K and hunted up. Found fresh elk sign at 6k but the elk were pushed up higher by horse hunters. Saw a two point on the river but no deer tag, no sign between the river and 6k to speak of. I’d push first day and establish camp higher...
