    Did you shoot your first deer with open sights?

    I like thinking about this, but have to admit that I’m paralyzed by the relativity of it. I think, ultimately, what my dad (and consequently, I) tried to avoid is instilling a brittle spirit. In other words, easy come, easy go. There are so many facets of life today that are relatively easy...

    Fishing at Flathead Lake

    Thanks for the tips, guys! We actually ended up at lake Mary Ronan and did more swimming and screwing around than fishing. Only a couple bites on the weekend, but I wouldn’t say we really gave it a go.

    Fishing at Flathead Lake

    We’ll be camping on Finley Point, but I think we’ll probably head to the northern half to fish

    Fishing at Flathead Lake

    Headed up to Flathead this weekend for my kid’s seventh birthday. We just have a 4-person raft that I’ll be puttering around on. The kids love fishing whether we catch anything or not, so regardless of the futility of my quest we’ll be giving it a whirl. I’m wondering, though, if anyone has...

    .270 as an elk round

    I shoot elk with a 150 gr, buddy shoots them with a 130 gr. I think he has killed more, but I don’t know whose got a better avg. a good shot with any .270 round will kill an elk. Depending on your kid’s size and flinchyness, I’d go 130

    ...

    You set the bar so high with the first picture. I couldn't help but be disappointed when the van made no more appearances. And let's be honest...a guy pulls up in a circa 1995 minivan with a donut on and no kids and claims he's hunting. At some point you have to accept that the hat wasn't the...

    Man, you always write it up in a way that connects. Thanks for the consistent recounts

    2021 In The Nameless Range

    I always judge hard on the apparent attitude of a dog toward its owner. Sometimes it leads me astray, but not often. I’d say it’s a good standard in this instance. Great season, man. Happy you got an elk. Bummer on the deer.

    3-antlered town deer

    I’ve only seen this guy once since he hardened up. Coincidentally, my wife just sent me a pic of him this morning on her way to hike. Here are a couple more, post velvet. These town deer have it made. Enough food, water, tail, and refuge to live long, happy lives as long as they don’t mind the...

    MT Ram

    In times like this!? I have no idea what it feels like to work as hard as this to fill a tag. One season I elk hunted 37 days and thought I was cool. This is incredible. @Greenhorn was there anything in that group of rams that got you a little itchy? If I ever draw a sheep tag, I’m going to...

    Lost my lifemate.

    Man, I’m so sorry for your loss. 59 years is something to be proud of. I can’t imagine the grief. Praying for you.

    Nanny Problems - Oh Yeah, I’ve Got Them (a goat hunt)

    Ugh. I’m starting to love hunt talk again and stories like this are why. Nice work and great story. Have @Ben Lamb lobby for a stormy kromer version of that hat and you’d be the Dalai Lama of Montana

    2021 kamikazee elk

    On Friday night it started to rain sometime in the middle of the night. I recalled you mentioning the level of up-shit-creekery that can happen when it rains in this unit. I didn't get the best sleep of my life that night.

    2021 kamikazee elk

    There were a couple of spots that if we would have met a horse rider coming up, it would have been the pile up of the century!

    2021 kamikazee elk

    Thanks. It worked remarkably well. I will definitely be incorporating this set up into future hunts.

    2021 kamikazee elk

    Haha...don't offend @Nameless Range. As soon as HuntTalk gets a Hall of Fame, I'll be disappointed if he's not on the first ballot.

    Thanks, man. And thanks again for the help!

    2021 kamikazee elk

    There are as many paths to fulfillment as there are people on this planet. When I was talking to some (seriously badass) hunters about this district, one made the comment "I'd hunt opening weekend, but it would take something pretty special for me to pull the trigger." Two hundred steps were...
