    I drew a once in a lifetime sheep tag at 25. Now what?

    I must have married a "tougher" woman or I am a failure of a man? I have had 2 children during deer and elk season and hunted plenty on otc tags when they were born. I have been with my wife 30 years and my kids are teenagers and young adults. Opinions on both sides seem dramatic. I think the...

    Montana Rifle Company

    I knew original owner well. Company that bought it ran it in the ground is what happened. New Buyers were not good people. i have no idea who brought it back to life this time

    Not on Your Bucket List

    Agree I am out on the giraffe but a Zebra is a really challenging animal to hunt. I went to Africa once and the last thing my daughters said as I left was "dont shoot a zebra." 😂 They are both horse loving barrell racers. One of our party wanted a zebra and I was pretty shocked how difficult...

    Thank You Montana

    I think the numbers on come home to hunt tags are a few hundred? That number doesnt seem like the problem. Im not sure how many native nr tags get issued but I did see chth and it was a drop in the bucket at the time

    Barrel break in for Weatherby's

    Very accurate statement. Customer has accuracy issues first thing SOME gum manufacturers will say is you must not have broken in properly. In my experience Weatherby wont do this ever and will honor the gaurantee. Some gun companies do it as a standard operating procedure. We place custom...

    Barrel break in for Weatherby's

    dont do it. Its a waste of ammo. I have lots of Weatherby personal rifles and I am a weatherby dealer. Shoot the gun to sight in and clean when necessary like accuracy drops off or you can tell the barrell is foul.

    Good for you Botswana

    I am a trophy hunter and proud of it. As a kid on my first hunt I shot a doe and it was a trophy. My sons first deer was a doe when he was 8. that was a trophy to both of us. I actually tanned the hide and we still have that doe hide. I have probably 30 mounts? and countless just deer and elk...

    Good for you Botswana

    When I hunt and dont eat coyotes and prairie dogs am I trophy hunting? Do you eat coyotes? Wait! are we both trophy hunters? 😂 Is the criteria for a "trophy" hunt solely not personally eating the meat?

    Judging size of a bear

    only reliable way is to ground check them. Shoot first ask questions later. just kidding sort of. I have taken some nice bears but I have definitely misjudged a few. I agree with watch as long as you can, rushed shots haven't been good decisions for me. Every really big bear I have shot I...

    Wolves in Nevada???

    Thats the problem most hunters have with any predator, they need to be managed. Most hunters wont complain about predators if they are PROPERLY managed. Think about the increase in your lion population since they outlawed dogs(the only effective way to manage cats). 52 deer per year per lion...
