    2024!!

    I walked the property I hunt yesterday in Porter county and was blown away at the lack of any sort of deer sign. It’s 112 acre woods surrounded by fields and woods and is typically loaded with deer. I spent 2 hours walking it and did not turn up a single scrape or rub anywhere on the property...

    40 mm vs. 50 mm scope.

    It was a 3 x 9. What I liked about it the most was it just seemed like it was easier to pick up the target. I’m assuming with the bigger lens is it had a bigger field of view.

    Unit 45 New Mexico

    I also had some luck turning up elk by side hilling the dark timber mid day into the wind on a very windy day. Moving slow and glassing through the timber to try and spot something. I’m sure there are parts of the unit that are really good for glassing, just not the area I was in.

    Unit 45 New Mexico

    I have hunted that unit for first rifle a couple of times. In the area I was in the bulls were quiet. One of the hunts I bugled in a couple of bulls but they came in completely silent. On another hunt I set up and cow called and bugled at first light and was able to bring in a bull that came...
