    More opinions

    Prosecutors have a record to maintain so they have incentive to negotiate a guilty plea. Just human nature. I think negotiating should be handled by a 3rd party with no skin in the game. That said. Punishment should not be negotiable. Too many times heinous folks don’t get what they deserve. I’m...

    Idaho Unit 67

    I have kicked bulls out of patches of trees smaller than a Volkswagen. Cover is cover. ESPECIALLY if it’s on an open side hill with trails in and out. As a hunter, we notice the patch, but do we SEE it? As a lazy hunter, most of these patches require too much effort to ‘ go over and check it...

    Muley Buck Age

    We all suck at aging deer, that’s why it’s fun to finally guess one right. My .02. Young face width and coloring. He is a fatty with nice antler growth. I’m guessing 3.5, not more than that. With access to cultivated fields that allow for minimal effort access to a decent fat and antler...

    When did you know a hunting partner wasn’t going to last? I’ll go first…

    Dozens of phone calls and emails exchanged. I was sure he was a good fit. Everything was fine right up until the float plane disappeared into the sky. The look on his face said it all. He was not emotionally prepared for two weeks in the bush. Nice enough guy, he hunts daily from tree stands he...

    10 days anywhere in the world...

    If you shoot up to St Andrew’s be prepared to call in advance and make sure to give them a competitive handicap. Otherwise they won’t make room for you. But the area is fantastic even without a tee time.

    10 days anywhere in the world...

    I think I have been to almost all of the suggestions. I am going to assume you are traveling as a couple so 9 nights in a tent on the north slope is out. 1. Greek Islands. Food is great. Folks are nice. Lots to see and do. 2. Road trip from London to Edinburgh. Mushy peas, fish and chips...

    Who is most full of caca?

    Drivers who don’t notice their blinker is on. Little cars that merge into tight spots. Folks who use speaker phones in public. (Me) Creative dieters with shallow opinions. Pro athletes who voice opinions publicly. Idiots who don’t know what to order after waiting in line because of an idiot...

    Monthly budget

    We have no debt. No house, no car, no medical, zilch. Interest was our issue. Interest coming in = good. Interest going out = bad. Interest in any form going out = bad.

    Dogs are Hunting Partners - Let's see 'em

    His name is Redd. He supervises just fine and chases squirrels, hares, ptarmigan, grouse, moose, voles, bees, flies and blue jays. He’s not worth the food bill as a hunter but his love for me is unconditional.

    Caribou hunt for 2027 with air taxi

    Give yourself plenty of time on both ends to enjoy the experience. Yes, delays may happen as well but don’t run such a tight budget that you can’t smell some roses. Make sure you look at a lot of heads in person. Ensure you know what is a trophy to you. Shoot the first one that passes muster...

    Manufactured Outrage

    Lots of things come to mind, both recent and dated. Janet Reno and her jack-booted thugs were gonna take our guns… Rescinding R-v-W was gonna leave thousands dying in the streets… Fukushima was gonna kill the entire food pyramid… Oil pipelines were all going to rupture… Trump = WWIII… Some had...

    Solo caribou hunt

    Going solo is a tough pitch unless you already have a relationship with the transporter, even then most will refuse. If you hunt archery, maybe try a solo haul road hunt within 5 miles of the road. Or do the hike to rifle land. Better yet, spend the next year posting here and asking for...
