    Keep Hammering

    to me "casual hunting" is: taking the kids to shoot squirrels - Ground or tree walking down the creek or ditchbank to kick up a rabbit, duck or pheasant woodcutting trips that turn in to an impromptu deer stalk on a mature but not trophy buck coyote hunt while out shed hunting jump shooting the...

    A few thoughts on influencers....bit of a tangent.... Remember Social media and the internet makes finding out information on your hobby way more accessible than it was 30 years ago.

    Keep Hammering

    Was published in 2021....good reminder. I think every activity that relies on AFTER-TAX income has to have a casual contingent to pay the majority of the expenses for the success that the competitive folks enjoy. Examples include : Youth sports Rodeo and Horse shows Car/motorcycle clubs and...

    2026 is off to a good start—with a cow tag punched and a little good karma mixed in.

    That is "being a village". Way to go beyond the "shoot and donate". You are teaching skills and not just dependance. As someone in Ag, I'm curious about your fencing strategies for dealing with elk. Rail Crossings? 8 ft high Netting around stackyards? Designated grass/alfalfa stockpiled...

    Best Guides and Experience's

    Shane Scott outfitting matched me up with a great local guide when I had my Utah tag in 2022. I knew UT was a one and done for me. He also helped with an application strategy. The Fish House in Seward AK put us on a great little 6 pack boat for halibut in 2007. If you have a LE tag in...

    Bad Guides and Experiences

    I too have been on both sides of the guide equation. I like to think it makes me a better client, but sometimes it is awful hard not to "guide the guide". One outfitter my father and uncle had hunted with multiple times since 2000 asked the three of us to show his new guide the country on...

    Prime rib roast

    I've always been leary of cooking tender cuts in a smoker. My best rump roast I've ever made was with the Herb butter mentioned up thread as a "fat cap" . The Rib roast i had for christmas i just did the Seasoning on the existing 1/4 inch of external fat I like putting a drip pan below the...

    Weirdest Things Found

    Friend of mine found a rifle in a log/ice jam while trapping in Alaska. Long story short, determined it belonged to a young fella who came out to help an old sourdough on a trap line. The Sourdough's proteges had a strange habit of disappearing at the end of the trapping season never to be...

    Weirdest Things Found

    Was on a horseback ride at a property owned by the water district where my friend ran cows. We rode past a car parked infront of the gate and I peered in the window of the car and said "Well there's not a dead body in there!" in a joking tone. We discovered the body about 30 feet inside the...
