My wife surprised me with these. They are super nice.
I may be willing to part with my current pair of 15X60 Zeiss, but just a warning, they are well used.
To piggy back on the boo boo bear thread and at @MTTW half serious request it is time for a ground shrinkage thread on the bucks and bulls you have taken. Ground shrinkage happens to everyone sooner or later. They say confession is good for the sole so it is time to fess up and post up some...
This story starts five years ago when this nice young buck with good brow tines showed up on trail camera.
The next spring I found the antlers near my fathers and put them in the keep for now pile. The keep for now pile is for antlers from young bucks that might turn into something in the future...
Was out hiking the other day and found a burning coal seam. I have found plenty of burning coal seams, but this is the first were I could look down into the cracks and see the rocks glowing red hot.
This year I watched a buck go and bed on the morning of the 18th of Dec. That evening he had shed one of his antlers. At first I watched him with anticipating him to shed at any moment. He was still packing the one antler as of yesterday morning. Until this buck I have never seen a buck carry a...
Found this fresh whitetail antler in the corn pile yesterday. Earliest I have ever found a fresh whitetail antler. Not a good sign as shedding is an indicator of deer health.
In an attempt to not completely hi jack the moving to WY thread I am posting up the picture of the big juniper in a new thread. Feel free to post up some pictures of other over sized trees or "shrubs"
As I remember this Juniper had a trunk circumference of a bit over 9 feet, was 40 feet tall and...
A regional editor of John Deere contacted me about an article on shed hunting and my antler collection for a company publication. Any input from the Hunt Talk brain trust would be welcome.
Thanks
I found this 8 point antler about a month ago. lots of looking for the other side and so far I have not had any luck. Not going to quit looking but other shed hunters have access to this bulls home I am wondering if some one else may have found it. I don't know everyone that gets to look there...
Back in the winter 2004 I had group of three nice bucks located. That spring I found 5 of the 6 antlers. I searched hard for the last one but never could find it. This morning I walked out on a little point and there it was fifty yards below me right out in the open. I have been on that point at...
According too the Powder River Examiner the bridge crossing the powder river near Moorehead is closed and will not likely be reopened in the coming months. One of the support columns is sinking and causing the bridge to sag. Engineers have determined that the bridge is structurally unsound and...
Just last week I was at a sportsman's club meeting with two FWP biologist . Both nice guys. The topic was CWD. CWD has been found in Montana south of Billings and to the north. The SE is where FWP expects it to show up next. CWD is likely already hear but has yet to be detected. The talk...
Yesterday afternoon some friends and I got back into some remote for eastern Montana country. I was walking down a south slope when I spotted what I thought at first was a heavy three point antler under a juniper. Some times you get lucky and find that one in a thousand antler. Much to my...
I spotted this buck in a near white out snow storm a few days ago. 100 yards was too far in the blinding snow to get a good picture so I put the truck in stealth mode and closed the distance to under 50 yards. I shot him multiple times and he just kept sniffing the does like I wasn't even...
Monster may be a bit of an exaggeration. I bet I got your attention. I did find this antler today. Monster it is not but is still a really neat find. One of smallest antlers I have ever found. Now I need to match it up
Wednesday night my college age son smacked a cow on the road with his hand me down 2003 Tahoe. The black Angus kind. He came through without a scratch. The Tahoe not so much. I thank God that he is ok! Would like to entrust his life with another Tahoe. If you have one or know of someone who has...
