    Fishing gloves - winter time

    For whatever reason, my hands stop functioning in the cold, seemingly way before any of my fishing buddies. So after trying multiple approaches, I’ve had best luck with light weight glove liners alternating hands periodically into super sized hand warmer equipped pockets for drying/warming. It...

    San Rafael, Dirty Devil, Ram (kinda long again)

    That’s the second time I’ve been confused by Elon…wife woke me when she saw a “star formation” moving across the sky! Later pictures enlightened us that they were Starlink sats! 😂

    KHunter 2022 ID bull and CO cow moose hunts

    All I can say is WOW!! Woke up in the middle of the night 24 hours ago and started reading about your hunt. Picked it up again an hour ago and just got caught up to this point. What a crazy adventure. I’ve experienced the dreadful emotions of wounding an animal. I’ve experienced close calls...

    Have you ever seen a wolverine in the wild?

    Only one on a drop camp caribou hunt in Alaska in September 2001, just days before the contrails temporarily disappeared from the skies. A very memorable trip for many reasons!

    i hear you hank4elk…living in NM does have its challenges!! Maybe even more so in a place named Pie Town than here in Farmington 😂. Just kidding…in my 50+ years in NM, I’ve driven all around Pie Town, but never through it. Beautiful area and great elk country! Back to the subject, it seems...

    Im bowing out

    Im bowing out

    With a solid background in finance, I’ve spent most of my 50+ year working career in construction and buidling materials. As pointed out above, inflation makes new housing more expensive, but not as much as the additional costs of compliance with the ever increasing body of regulations and...

    Bullet selection for close range black bear

    I agree with Muskeg (Big and slow). I hit a black bear on the point of the shoulder (he was quartering on) at 50 yds with a .338 X bullet with a MZ of 2925 fps. It deflected and came out the same side about 12” down and back along the ribs without penetrating the vitals cavity. Hair raising...
