    Thawing, cutting, then Refreezing

    I do it plenty, also, if I find I have no ground left, but a ton of roasts or round steaks, I will take them out to grind. Also plenty of times I’ve hung elk quarters, and they’ve frozen overnight. Never seen any negative results in one refreeze

    Probably a little overthinking… 7mm-08

    Those CX’s in my 7mm-08 were minute-of-car door at best. Try something different.

    My Two-year HOWA Experiment

    Such a shame that the 6.8 Creedmoor Ackley Improved Short Mag with a 37.5” barrel didn’t make the cut.

    Mtn Goat Meat Yield?

    Got a nice big Billy last year, kind of surprised at the meat yield…..I would compare it to an average whitetail, give or take. They spend the summer gorging on grass, flowers, and forbs…..they are mostly guts by September.

    Burgess Shotgun 3, Ruffed Grouse 0

    Very cool! New, modern shotguns are ok. When you bag a limit, you’re proud to own it. Old, unique shotguns are self-fulfilling, even when you get skunked, you’re proud to own it. Just spending time with it is a pleasure. Great scattergun, thanks for sharing

    Ruger or Savage

    I bought my son a Ruger American in 7mm-08 in a youth model, turned out to be one of the most accurate rifles in my gun cabinet. He’s moved on to a different gun, but I liked it so much I bought a aftermarket stock for it, and I’ve been using it the past two years. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy...

    Off subject, but did you happen to see Son Volt play at Red Ants? Really wanted to see them, couldn’t make it. Oh, and Slow Elk is seasonal, comes out right around General Season if my slippery memory serves me.

    Soon there will be no escape

    When I’m out recreating, I always put my phone in airplane mode. I can keep my bearings and navigate with OnX and GoHunt (currently have both, can’t decide on which one I like more), but I’m not bothered by the constant emails, texts, and calls that bombard me every day. I do use an InReach...

    Stop grinding shanks

    Did a wet brine of equal parts kosher salt and sugar, a bunch of onions, garlic and pepper. I believe I did a 10 day brine, not worried about saltiness considering I would be braising the shanks before pulling the meat. I don’t recall exact amounts of ingredients, but a wet brine is pretty...

    Stop grinding shanks

    I usually keep mine whole bone-in, except for elk, I usually bone them in the field. I brined and smoked these, and froze them. Excellent in a bean and venison soup.

    Flaky Howa Kuiu...Warranty Update

    Patina Character Unique Loved However you want to describe it, if it shoots and you like it, heck, I’d find a way to admire it. Like a scratch on a wood stock.

    Black or Grizz

    Definitely black bear, probably young sow. Light colored body with dark head and legs give it away.
