    Winchester model 70

    A friend inherited a model 70 Winchester featherweight serial # 375907 and have no idea what when it was made or what is worth? I would rate it as about a 7 or 8 with a junk scope?

    Stirring the pot on shot placement

    I have always hunted to put meat in the freezer 1st and to kill a trophy second. I will hunt a few days turning down smaller bucks or bulls if I have the time but I have no problem filling an any elk or deer tag with a doe/cow or small male of either. That is also why I never if possible have...

    Got another cow

    Well got another cow of MOOO kind. It was a challenging adventure with the wind blowing 30+ and the dirt and horse and cow dropping whirling clouds of poop. I was over gunned with my 1929 model 12 Remington 22. It was a tough shot at 10 feet but she dropped in her tracks. The bobcat groaned...

    Another great thing about living in elk country

    Driving down the road and seeing elk legs and antler's sticking up, out and above the box of a truck or trailer. It gets my blood flowing and mind dreaming. Also there is 1 gas station in town and lots of hunters stop, so another great place to see happy and lucky hunters.

    What do you think

    OK after 55+ years of elk hunting and with 50+ elk taken do I hold out for a toad or kill a peace of meat? It is not that easy because I can still walk and hike but my back will not let me pack it anymore. I have friends that will take care of the old guy, but when does that become to much to...

    Went again for walleyes

    Went for a quick trip and caught these nice ones and put 1 small one back. The board is 18 inches wide to give an idea of the size. My fishing partner heads south for the winter this week so maybe one more outing and then I can think of getting my cow elk.

They only managed 1 small bull but had them figured out and should...
