    Boot Issues…

    Here’s the deal. I’ve owned a pair of Lowa Renegades for two years. I’m a relatively large guy that is 6’5” and about 250. Recently I did about 7 miles with about a 25 pound pack. The elevation gain was moderate and mostly shorts stints up and down about 100 feet. It is rocky cliffs terrain...

    Tell me a story…

    What’s her story? Look at the pictures closely. She must have lived quite the life. I killed her off the Palouse River in WA. I didn’t call her in. I know the spot well, and killed her still hunting in the rolling sage brush. Her hide is beautiful and the rest of her was healthy and big.

    Spokane predator hunting that could become more serious…

    I’ve been a wannabe predator hunter for years. I love it though and am okay at it. I know I have a ton to learn. I have a cheap electronic call, but am looking at upgrading. I have multiple mouth calls. I’m an effective big game hunter and in turn have applied that to coyotes. I had a partner...

    Anyone own a Bergara B-14 Squared Crest? I’m drooling over one in 7 prc.

    Do any of you have any experience with this rifle? I know it is a newer model, but it is getting amazing reviews. I want one in 7 prc. My only concern is the non-adjustable cheek piece in that style of stock. I love that the stock comes with spacers to adjust for length of pull. I’m still not...

    The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation; a Reflection

    Years ago I decided to read the Bible, why? I am very practical by nature and decided if I’m going to actually be a Christian I better have read the text. After being deeply moved by @Big Fin and Shane Mahoney and their current YouTube series I ordered the text and thought I better get reading...

    Knife Detectives?

    Hey Gentlemen, I found this knife at Granite Lake in Idaho this weekend. It was on a rock on the beach… It has nice heft and balance, and nice jimping work. It seems to be a quality piece of workmanship. I feel who for whomever lost it. Any ideas of who the maker is? I dropped my fishing pole in...

    Land Rehab Advice

    My wife and I recently purchased 40 of heaven in Montana about 25 minutes off of my hometown, Anaconda. This was a huge blessing due to the fact that I purchased it for pennies on the dollar from my Mom’s friend, with the agreement we would conserve and improve the land for native species. It is...

I don’t think I want to go bino/rangefinder combo because I use my setup for rifle/archery/3D shoots. What...

    Spokane WA Chapter of the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Help

    Good Morning All, I have been a member of RMEF since the 90’s, but have never been involved more than donating money. I‘ve purchased piles of raffle tickets and such to no avail. Recently I decided it’s time to get more involved. I am notoriously hyperactive and mouthy, both skills that MAY...

    Critters you see while fishing… Why? Because I’m a terrible fisherman.

    I headed out fishing today. I saw countless fish; perch, bass, trout, carp and more. I caught exactly one... a tiny perch. I hooked into my first carp. It was a kick! I was bouncing a bonsai rig along the bottom with a coffee flavor gummy crawdad and it nailed it. My little rod and I got worked...

    Theft and ADD is a B

    Well, I left my chest harness in my pickup as usual, but apparently forgot to lock my doors again... I really try. I came out to my truck gone through and my harness, binos and rangefinder gone. It’s my issue that I forgot to lock my doors, but I live in a “safe and quiet neighborhood“ in...

    Kayak Fishing Fun and neeeeeed advice

    I am a novice kayak fisherman. With all my knee surgeries I took it up to ease the semi-permanent loss of mountain biking. It has been amazing. I hated fishing with my Dad growing up. I was VERY hyper and the only fishing my Dad would do, or knew to do, was to stand on the shore in a single...
