Few years back I ran some trail cameras on a water hole in the gravallies. Showed up on opening day to check em, pulled the SD cards and scrolled thru em kinda quick on my Nikon d500 screen seeing nothing but cattle and a couple small bulls. Set my pack down, glassed some, walked around a bit...
Tried to take my kid there last year for the jr hunt, figured since I had smashed a few vehicle front ends over the years in that stretch on deer there were probably some deer down there. Then I discovered you can’t access it there. Nonsense. Crazy.
Dude came up to me at the check station at a state run wildlife area and commented about how I always came back with limits of pheasants. I was like yea sure want me to take you to my spot? He’s like yea!, so off we go, my spot was a mile long ditch and a pond on the state wildlife area that...
Just got home, 6-8 shingles missing, damn! Our house was the only shingle house on the road that has held up to the Townsend wind to date. Already called the roofer but still a long ways from the end. Kids playground is about to go. 2’ 45 degree stakes holing that thing down. Kestrel was saying...
I have a crew in Bozeman now begging for my work. They want to work 7 days a week, they will cost me 12.00 a ft, they tell me they have as many guys as needed for as many jobs as I can give them. They are registered with the state, they are a LLC, all I need is their comp and liability...
Why pick cherries when you can hang drywall, frame houses, paint, electrical, plumbing, roofing, tile, masonry, etc etc for 70-150k a year?
They are some of the best people I’ve ever met- mainly because they still have family values and Christian (80%) beliefs. Millions of the best people are...
Nail it to a board.. nah just kidding.. freeze the breast, slice it super thin with a meat slicer, marinate it in whatever teriyaki/soy/ginger/garlic recipe you prefer and make broccoli duck with it. Super good. Key is hot and fast.
The key is to tune the sweet/smoke/spice combination to your liking. Used to get it at a place in Montclair California called three Ana’s, pretty sure it had some amount of habanero in it. Needed a paper towel for your forehead sweat.
Everywhere that I’ve had it in Montana either short cuts the sauce w chit like katchup and red bell peppers or even worse adds mushrooms.

Yup. In fact I’m thinking of putting a fancy wood stock on it and a scope with a gold ring this year. Got lots of 168 Bergers and 165 accubonds loaded for it. Tried some 168 hammers but haven’t shot anything with em yet. Supposed to do a Cali pig hunt with family one of these days.
I’m a 30-06 fan. First rifle was a savage 110 30-06. Still got it 25 years later, still confident I could kill anything with it. You could find 30-06 ammo at a gas station hardware section.
Thoughts to those affected. Stay safe!
Also can’t help but my mind wander to all the great waterfowl hunts I’ve had after floods when I lived in a place that seasonally flooded and occasionally had severe flooding in what was historically a flood basin. Gonna be a Widgeon banger on all that...
You too can hunt those elk for 600 bucks a day through land trust. You can also make a YouTube video about it and claim it as a backcountry public land bull. Which I suppose is possibly technically accurate if you shot it on the 163 acres of landlocked BLM. :)
