2024 - Bryan's Season of Redemption. A Live Feed
4/18 Well the Montana combo draw was a bust. I've been looking into other possible hunts around the west. I've somewhat come to the conclusion that a post rut or late season elk hunt might not be the best idea for introducing Sam to western hunting. He's starting from square one with gear. Our...- Prairie Rambler

2024 - Bryan's Season of Redemption. A Live Feed
3/30 - The Build I've primarily been a deer and pronghorn hunter since moving out west in 2011 at the young age of 19. I always wanted to get into elk hunting but didn't know how. I've had a few resident muzzleloader tags in Washington but almost never see elk during the season. I somehow seem...- Prairie Rambler

I think it took some talking it out to make her see that hunting is what I live for after her and my daughter, but she gets it now. Thanks dude! Good luck to you too- Prairie Rambler

HT! Its been awhile... and by that I mean I haven't been active on here for awhile. My life has had some serious ups and downs over the past two years. My daughter was born in Sept of 2022 and with the ridiculous cost of child care my wife and I elected for her to stay home. This means that I...- Prairie Rambler

Does Camouflage Really Work
Depends on the context. Stop and stalk archery pronghorn I'd say it's very necessary. Rifle hunting black bear on the other hand, I role with alot of earth tone solids.- Prairie Rambler

Kings Camo XKG Down Transition Jacket
I went for the full set of Kings 5 years ago and I was not a fan. Ended up junking it and piecing together a sitka setup through camo fire sales. Maybe there clothing has changed since then 🤷♂️ I've heard good things about black ovis if you don't want play the sales games.- Prairie Rambler

Adventures of a flatlander in a strange place - 2021
Finally, last week the wife and I went on a float trip for chinook salmon with Sage Waters Outfitters on the coast. It was our first time salmon fishing... both of us being from the midwest. It was awesome! Went home with a limit of 4 in the cooler. I'm definitely hooked. Her words on the way...- Prairie Rambler

This Aug 1 bear opener was a blessing and a curse. We hiked in a day early and we were on bears the whole time but got chased out by the biting flies and thick smoke. I'm still in search of my first bear. Hopefully tomorrow's day hunt goes well- Prairie Rambler

I've really fallen behind in this with summer chores. I've been hitting a local lake once our twice a month. Normally I won't keep trout in the summer but it's deep, cold, and the tiger trout in this lake cut amazingly. Last time we were there we saw a cow and calf moose- Prairie Rambler

Well, turkey season has come and gone. I went 1 for 5 on opportunities at gobblers. Most disappointed at myself then anything. After talking to John more he pointed me in the right direction for improving my shotgun setup. Namely switching to a Patternmaster choke and Apex or Federal TSS ammo...- Prairie Rambler

We as hunters don't admit it enough, but I've been struggling this turkey season. Some people just give up instead of continuing to grind. I spent 5 days hunting with alot of excitement, close encounters, and learning from failure but no success. This past Tuesday after blowing it when I had a...- Prairie Rambler

Adventures of a flatlander in a strange place - 2021
The last month hasn't been too eventful here. The ice on WA lakes went out extremely quickly the last half of March. Open water fishing is finally picking up but I've got my eye on turkeys. Went out this evening to some public land by my place: 2 cow Moose, pack of jakes, and a tom with 3 hens...- Prairie Rambler
