Update: Yesterday evening, I found an Indian arrowhead and a pioneer horseshoe at the old homestead in North Central Indiana.

173 year old coin and probably my best free range find at this site on private land. Minted in Philadelphia when Franklin Pierce was President. Also, my...
I just reviewed several different hunt point statistics for the Nevada 2024 and 2025 draws. I don’t think the final draw numbers are published yet for last week’s 2026 draw.
Every tag for any species in Nevada is a “win”. I am very blessed, thankful and grateful to have drawn a NR rifle...
Love me some Nevada. I will take it!
Congratulations to all who drew a tag this year in the Silver State. Happy hunting to all, TheGrayRider a/k/a Tom.
Nevada - October 2025. Rifle. Guided. Public land.
Good luck 🍀 this week to all resident and nonresident applicants in the Nevada draw. I hope a few Hunttalkers hit some nice tags. Very long odds but worth the effort.
Happy hunting to all, TheGrayRider a/k/a Tom.

Woodworker delivered the leopard pedestal this past week. He used 100+ year old black walnut from an old homestead. It’s not African ironwood but I like the finished look.
I am still waiting on the full-body leopard mount from the taxidermist. Should be fairly soon…Happy hunting to all...
Thanks for the information. I haven’t seen that stunt pulled by airlines yet. Good to know. Sorry for your difficulties.
Iberian Airlines (Spain) is another suspect company, to put it lightly. Beware!
Good luck 🍀 and happy hunting, TheGrayRider a/k/a Tom.
Thanks for the post and pictures. I travel and hunt in the general area. I wasn’t aware of the signs or history.
I love South Dakota but that wind can be brutal at times! Happy hunting to all, TheGrayRider a/k/a Tom.

I didn’t apply in the “Land of Enchantment” this year.

Good catch. I didn’t know there was a difference between a horseshoe and a muleshoe. I read about the difference just now online. Thanks for the information. Happy hunting to all, TheGrayRider a/k/a Tom.
Love me some Utah! Price increases don’t scare me. Had a little luck recently in the SPRING draws!
