    GoHunt vs. OnX

    Looks like OnX has some significant upgrades to their mapping, scouting and application packages with the addition of TopRut and Terrain-X. I tried using GoHunt maps exclusively last year and compared to OnX on my wifes phone. I found OnX to be superior for a number of reasons. I was hopeful to...

    Jet boat considerations

    I'm considering picking up a jet boat for steelhead/salmon fishing that is also well rounded for flat water fishing of all types. I think I've narrowed my search to the Willie Raptor, Alumaweld Super Vee/Columbia or North River Scout. Ideally the main motor has a prop with jet conversion and it...

    Wifes 2022 bull

    Last weekend was a magical day. Got into a herd with at least four bulls bugling. Wife slipped into 100 yds of some cows quietly. I fell back 50 yds and gave some yearning cow calls. Bull came into 10 yds of wife and she tagged a nice 6x6 for her sixth archery bull. Also broke rule #101 on the...

    Nevada 032, 034 Antelope

    After 11 years of points, I was finally able to draw a tag in Nevada in 032, 034! I'm a little concerned about the drought and looking at last years harvest of 3% of harvest being 15" plus in size. Hopefully some rain and these cooler temps will help this years horn growth. At any rate, I'm...

    Real Estate or Family Trust

    I would like to place my home and property in a trust but not exactly sure where to start. Who has done this, what are your recommended steps and what are the ballpark costs in setting up a trust? In the basic research I've done, it looks like we need to hire a family trust attorney to set up...

    Rafting the Main Salmon River, Idaho

    In a couple weeks (end of July) I'll be going on a six day rafting trip down the main fork of the Salmon river. We are putting in at Corn Creek and floating through the Frank Church all the way to Riggins, Idaho. It's my first multi-day rafting trip and I'm looking forward to it! Those who have...

    CO Unit 22 Deer

    I drew the 3rd season this year and with the date shift, my hunt is later, Nov 13-19. Should be prime time as far as rut...I think. From what I gather, the hunt is not quite what it used to be but there will be opportunity to look over a lot of bucks and I assume that if I look over enough...

    Bugle Report

    Anyone having any luck getting into elk that want to talk? I went out for the opener. Was in the middle of six rag horns and I was only able to get one light squeal. Heading to Wyoming for an elk hunt tomorrow hoping they are starting to chime off in the high country.

    Barbary Sheep Hunt

    I got lucky this year and drew a barbary sheep tag with a long time hunting partner. Finding out results back in April made for a long wait before we were actually going to be chasing a sheep for the first time our lives. Long story short, two flat tires on the trailer, getting stuck in the mud...

    Opening Day Bull

    We put the least effort into this years hunt in all of our years archery elk hunting. Typically, we are setting cameras and scouting starting early July. This year however, I found out I needed a pacemaker and I was in no condition to be hiking hard until I got one implanted. On August 23, I...

    Idaho Sawtooth Elk A/B tag swap

    Since securing a Sawtooth Elk A tag, I found out that I had to have a pacemaker implanted. That surgery happened just this past Friday and the restrictions will not allow me to hunt the archery season. I will have clearance by the rifle season though. I called IDFG licensing and found out that...

    Calculation - Odds of drawing a tag?

    Does anyone have an excel formula set up to calculate a persons odds of drawing a single tag, or multiple tags, after applying for numerous tags in a given year?

    NM Pocket Ranger

    If more states start this, OnXMaps may be in trouble. Looks like it has most the features. Please provide reviews from those who use it this year. I'm curious. https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/NMDGF/bulletins/1b98c73

    On the board - Idaho Elk

    Called this 5x6 bull into 32 yds for my wife on Sunday. First bull we had going and called in of the season. Took three days to find elk that wanted to play but once we did, it was productive!

    2017 Idaho Lion

    Got lucky and was notified of a cat living in tree well. Approached said tree well. Climbed in said tree well. Came face to face with cat at less than 10 feet. Cat jumps out. Cat get's shot. Full body or rug? I'm not sure yet. It's a decent cat but not the giant that a guy dreams for. I'll...

    More MOA?

    I've mounted a Vortex Viper HSLR on a Ruger 6.5 creedmoor and sighted it to 200 yds. The dial had to be twisted so much that I'm now limited to 22 MOA or just under one twist of the dial. This limits the range of the rifle to about 600 yds. Anybody have recommendation on how can I go about...

    hunting / ski pant?

    I'm looking to purchase a new set of ski pants and thinking I can maybe kill two birds with one stone I'd like to get a pair of hunting pants that are of similar construction and material to ski pants for late season hunts in the snow. Anyone have any recommendations?

    idaho wolf sighting

    I was out scouting for deer the eve of opening day and on the lookout for wolves when I saw this. We had seen quite a bit of wolf sign in the drainage below and hoped they were still in the area. They just would cooperate. This was at about 1200 yds across a basin. I used fox pro with wolf pair...

    Fishing Anchorage August 11

    I'll be working in Anchorage next week and plan on taking a day to go fishing. Any recommendations on what to fish for or who to charter with? Would like to catch a charter for salmon and halibut. Not sure what is biting in early to mid August.

    help - poor grouping???

    I have a Winchester Model 70 SS in 300 win mag. I've had a hard time getting it to group tight but this week while testing different loads it seems to be getting worse or the scope is bad and I can't quite figure it out. I had been shooting factory ammo and getting close to 1" moa. Not...
