    Not on Your Bucket List

    No desire to hunt and kill the dink mule deer everyone kills in Eastern Montana. Africa also does nothing for me.

    2024 Sheds

    Had a good day sneaking away from work. The biggest antler is a few years old, but I’ve walked with it 100yds of it half a dozen times the last couple years.

    Found this one while out and about with my boy. He was very proud of it, refused to let go of it.

    The Gen Z Law Regarding Boomers For Off Season Sake.

    For what it’s worth on today’s work force, I am a millennial, i do most of the hiring for the company I work for. I have a job posting out now for a seasonal position that will likely turn into a couple full time positions with benefits (ie health insurance, retirement, cell phone, company...

    Why do you like your gaiters?

    I prefer Kuiu or OR. I’ve had several pairs of each, I can’t get any to last more than a couple years, and are usually held together with electrical tape by the time I toss them.

    2024 Sheds

    I’ve been out a couple times looking for the match to the big paddle I found with my boy. No luck yet, probably won’t hit that specific spot again till the snow melts in the spring. Went to one of my other spots this afternoon and managed to pick up this little set. I know there’s more antlers...

    Write offs as Hunting Guide

    Thanks for all the inputs guys! I don't have that many directly associated expenses at this point that I feel would be real justifiable. Some big optics purchases coming down the pipeline got me thinking about it. I am looking into getting an actual outfitters license and running my own...

    Write offs as Hunting Guide

    I guide part time in the fall, did it full time for years, but with a young kid at home, and making more time to hunt for myself, it’s only part time anymore. I am not very knowledgeable in regards to taxes and finances. I always file my taxes myself, let be well within my means, and put...

    Swarovski NL pure

    Well your smarter than my wife, she found a pair she was going to surprise me with for $400 from a Chinese vendor on Etsy. She sent money to them too.

    Other hunters at your top spot, what do you do?

    I think it depends on the size of the area, but the best option is to just get up earlier than the rest, and get there first. I had a situation last year, with a spot in the backcountry here in Montana. There is a specific point I love to glass from, where you can often catch elk crossing, I...

    Boy, I too have made the trek through Wrong Creek, certainly is a hell hole. Great job and trip.

    Wall tent frame

    Tent is a 12'x14'. Will depend on snow level- third season. If its mild I may be in them and this may not be an issue. I will be traveling from central Montana to central Colorado, so hauling lodgepole or dimensional lumber won't be ideal. I will need to look into pricing conduit- I've...

    Wall tent frame

    Just found a deal on a used wall tent, but didn't have a frame. Won't be an issue in most places I hunt, as there plenty of lodgepoles to cut pole out of. That being said, where I will be hunting in Colorado this year, I will likely be camping in pinion/juniper country. I don't have it in the...

    You know, the biggest threat to the future of these hunts would be if they make it easier to film in the wilderness areas. If that happens it will be over before you can blink. Along with some other great wilderness oppurtunities in this state.

    What hunts are better today than 10 years ago?

    I feel like it fluctuates. I have been told for example that the deer hunting in Northern Wisconsin has improved from ten years ago due to the uptick in logging the last few years. The area I hunt in Montana does elk, I know was very tough hunting the the early 90s, seems to have peeked be in...

    2021 shed thread

    Went one more time before I start focusing a little more on bears, hoping to match a couple paddles up- no luck, only found this one that the squirrels found well before me.

    2021 shed thread

    Couple more paddles over the weekend. Thought the one under the tree wa the match to the other white one I posted under a tree. They were only five yards apart, this one must have been under the snow. After looking at them closer, I don’t think they are a match. Funny that a left and right...
