    Retire early to hunt more?

    Good points. Climbing the ladder when it sacrifices your family time yields emptiness. You don't want to look back, regardless of the financial situation, and realize you short changed your wife and kids. Very astute to have the presence of mind to think about these things now versus well...

    Retire early to hunt more?

    I think I'll always work some. I get bored too easily. Unless I move to property which requires a lot of maintenance. With telemedicine I can work from home as well which is nice. Not to mention I can move wherever I want. My youngest has 6 years before he graduates high school. At that time...

    Hunter recruitment is why are WY resident draw odds getting worse for antelope

    Interesting. Describes me perfectly. Hunting about 10 years now. Started with deer, then deer and elk, and the past 5 years I added antelope. Not in WY. Antelope weren't even on my radar. I decided to try it one year. My family and I really enjoyed the meat so I kept applying.

    The game is getting crazy for big game hunting.

    New normal. IMO the internet has absolutely changed hunting opportunities. In the past you really had to do your own research, call around, or know people that were in the know. Now you only need 1/3 (research) and the ability to navigate a computer. Traditions that were handed down can be...

    Is it worth it?

    Work, family, social life. All 3 must have some balance. When the balance is shifted too heavily in one category the others will suffer. If you were my brother, based on your post, I would look at you in the eye and tell you it's time for a change. Stress is a silent killer in more ways than...

    Buffalo Bore 30-06 Supercharged Lead-Free 168gr TTSX

    That's moving. I used to shoot 168 grain TTSX just a smidge over 2800 fps. With that velocity I would have 2200 fps out to 484 yards. That's some good elk medicine right there.

    So much blind hate in the world.

    I would be surprised if Janis Putelis, the executive producer for MeatEater, would post a bogus video on his company's Instagram account.

    Caution Warning: Racism #huntingwhileblack

    I don't know the one brother but Janis Putelis seems like a solid guy. He is the executive producer for the MeatEater show. I've been watching him for years. Personally, I would be surprised if he posted a bogus video. I don't know him personally so I can't confirm or refute that statement.

    Does Checkpoint Violate Our Fourth Amendment Rights?

    I guess we have to pick apart a simple F&G Checkpoint. They don't bother me at all. In 8 years of hunting I have come across one. The officer asked me a few quick questions and I was on my way. He gave me a little intel as well. It didn't change my hunt but he was helpful. I told him I...

    Caution Warning: Racism #huntingwhileblack

    A few years ago I was hunting in my home state. My hunting partner from CA came up. We used his truck for the trip. I was appalled at the reception we received when passing other vehicles on the forest roads from my home state. In my truck with my home plates everyone waves or smiles. My...

    Caution Warning: Racism #huntingwhileblack

    If I see another hunter I see them as my brother/sister. I know right away we have a lot in common. This isn't BLM propaganda. This is an outdoorsman trying to do what we all love to do. Furthermore, this person is a first responder, and if this first responder is called to this person's...

    Season 8

    I'm absolutely hooked on these shows. Love them. Great content. Real hunting. Public land. Not always successful. The real deal. For some reason I never saw season 5. It's like finding a $100 dollars in your jacket pocket that you forgot about. Great motivation for the upcoming season.
