    Hammer vs Barnes question???

    I've shot both and seen quite a few animals killed with both (I have not used LRX, so can't comment there). The Hammers, to me, are the perfect balance of tissue damage and minimal meat damage. They are also really accurate, for whatever reason.

    Cementum aged critters - Let’s see them..

    I wonder if a dataset exists of aged animals vs score for different species. Maybe one could be compiled.

    I think it's well documented that basically any antlered big game animal (and pronghorn) can get big sooner than anyone would expect.

    Montana 2026 Elk Proposal

    Ask yourself this question...Would you rather have the legislature deciding everything when it comes to Fish and Wildlife or the current Commission? I get the process isn't ideal, or ever will be, but having it be elected, IMO, has a higher probability of making it worse.

    Wyoming Girl, 12, Stuns With One-Shot Kill From 600 Yards To Bag Huge Elk

    Here's a one from "back in the day" when we packed in late November with horses and shot these 2 bulls. They slid 200 ft down the mountain and hung up with each other, providing a sweet photo.

    God no. I'm the guy in the red jacket, cause you know, your daughter is right.

    Ugh, fine. I don't have a daughter, but my dad died when I was 19 and my younger sister was 12, so I was the one that brought her up hunting. I was there when she shot her first deer, antelope, elk, watched her dump damn near a box of shells standing in the same place during the youth pheasant...

    How many years of hunting experience does that represent?

    I'm curious how many animals you've harvested with a rifle, given you haven't lost one?

    DIY backpack meals $4-6 ideas?

    I know you said not dehydrated, but I make a rice and beans meal, with 2 tortillas and an once of cheese. Total weight is 7-8 oz and 1000 calories. Cost per is about $1.50 - $1.75 and no gut ache. I ate around 30 of them this year and never get tired of em.

    So much for the vaunted Swarovski warranty.

    Seriously. Any other binocular would be destroyed with the way I treat them.

    So much for the vaunted Swarovski warranty.

    This thread makes me glad I have Meopta. Sure, they are heavy, but the are built like a brick shithouse. I can't count the number of times my binos have fallen, including a 75 ft tumble out of my harness and down a steep hill chasing a turkey. Still working like a champ.
