The thread about hunting caribou as a Premium hunt made me think back to a thought I had this fall. I think we all have our "Sweet Spots" in the level of adventure we seek in our hunting experiences. Some people have a higher threshold than others. Within a hunting group it is important that...
Since my state has made me switch to copper, I've found I'm choosing a little different shot placement than I would with my typical bonded lead bullets. I'm not as concerned about avoiding bone because I shoot a larger caliber already and it made me wonder if folks who shoot lighter weight...

One of the upgrades I'm making to my "Sleeping Quarters" in my horse trailer is going to be adding a portable 12v cooler to my camping gear, running off of the power station I built from a LiPO4 100Ah battery. It will reside under the foldable step that will serve as a step into the gooseneck...

What is the Western Whitetail version?
On Sunday I stepped off my horse wrong after roping a run back calf in the morning and sprained my ankle good. Worked the rest of the day on horseback and ran the ancient squeeze chute for 48 head. Drove home 2 hours and made a doctor appointment at urgent care on Monday.
Well after a quick...

In 2024 I accompanied my father and uncle on their first Alberta mule deer hunt where they both got respectable farmland mule deer bucks the week of Thanksgiving. My father was happy with his deer but really craved more of the backcountry horseback style hunting we had been doing since about...
