    Canine Addison disease

    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.

    Montana bear units

    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...

    Louisiana bird hunt

    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.

    Maine 2025

    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...

    Travel arrangements

    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.

    Looking for pigeons for the purpose of dog training. I’m located just north of Pittsburgh, PA but willing to travel a little ways for the right deal.

    reattaching antler to skull plate

    My kid shot a spike buck and when he grabbed the antlers, one fell off. How should I reattach the antler?

    Maine 2024

    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.

    Squeezing tomatoes

    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...

    Marlin guide gun

    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?

    Setting up…

    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...

    Dog tracking system

    What tracking collar/system do you guys use? Pros and cons? I’ve got the old Astro system and it may be time to replace it with a new pup on the way.

    measuring rimfire ammo

    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...

    Colorado Maroon Bells Unit 43

    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...

    bear proof food storage

    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...

    Until next season

    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...

    How do you do it?

    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?

    A proper introduction

    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...

    Soft tops for pickup trucks

    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...
