Anyone have experience with canine Addison disease? My dad’s dog just got diagnosed and we’re trying to get a picture of what the future for her looks like.
I’ve been researching spring bear and ended up printing two maps from fish and game. One showing unit 400, and the other showing units 411, 420, etc. Just curious as to when this changed and why. I know these units on the newer map are quota units. I also noticed that harvest stats from 2024...
Spent a few days before Christmas following dogs around the Kisatchie national forest. Pup bumped a small covey of quail. No woodcock found. Temps were warm. I’d do it again.
Spent last week chasing grouse and woodcock in the North Maine Woods. No woodcock found and a few grouse.
The week started hotter than hell; my old dog actually abandoned the first hunt and walked himself back to the truck.
Saw a bull moose driving in Saturday night, and then had what...
Thinking about flying for some hunting trips in the future. Those of you who fly, do you rent a vehicle or get a ride to and from the airport? Renting just seems like a waist of money to sit there while I’m tenting, but it’s there if I need it.
Hit Maine for a third time hunting grouse and woodcock (October 4-12). Had a great time with both my dad and my son. We got into birds daily. I’ll post some pics and details.
This past weekend we made our annual batch of spaghetti sauce. The hand crank squeezo died and I’m thinking of an electric alternative. A meat grinder with tomato attachment seems like a great idea as I could use the grinder for deer. Curious as to the thoughts, opinions and experiences of...
I might have the opportunity to purchase a guide gun in 45-70. Not sure if it's a JM type or remington. Is it worth purchasing a remington manufactured or should I avoid the remington types? It's $1000. Thoughts?
I just bought a used PSE coyote recurve. I’m not an archer, so I don’t know my ass from a hole in the ground with this. I just want to mess around with this while getting my 15 year old son into archery.
What arrows should I use?
Finger tabs? Glove? Silicone finger savers?
Other...
I was looking at the rimfire gauge sold by Neil Jones custom products while buying some other items. Why not measure the overall length of the cartridge as opposed to using this tool? Also, as someone who has no knowledge of reloading, is rim thickness something you'd measure in centerfire...
My dad and I are planning a return trip to Colorado for muzzle loader elk this year. We're looking into both the Marble area as well as Sopris to the north. I have spoken with a number of individuals including hunt planners, the region warden/biologist, as well as a forest service ranger. All...
Headed to the Maroon Bells wilderness elk hunting this September and I've come to learn that I'll need bear proof food storage. I know about the IGBC requirements, but was wondering about others' experiences with different makes, models, etc... I'd also like to hear any advice on packing them...
Today was our last day of grouse hunting here in Pennsylvania, so it looks like bird hunting is done until October. We managed to get one rabbit but no birds. The best part of the day, aside from watching my old man's setter, was stumbling upon an elk bedding area. The beds were still warm...
My dad and I are planning our third trip to Colorado for muzzle loader elk. What I'm wondering is, how do you guys choose a unit with limited experience as a non resident?
I've been registered for a little while on here but have never introduced myself. From western Pennsylvania my whole life, hunting just about everything possible, but I'd say grouse hunting is by far the most enjoyable. I would enjoy coon hunting a lot more if my dog found more than just empty...
I'm looking at buying a new to me pickup come spring. I really like having a cap on the bed but it gets frustrating having to line up help to get it off. It has got me interested in a soft/canvas cap setup. I've never had experience with these so I'm hoping maybe a few guys around here can...
