    Shoulder Replacement

    I'm not sure if this has been covered before. If so, I apologize. My doctor has suggested shoulder replacement for my right arm. As a temporary solution, I received a cortisone shot about three months ago. I'm in my training regime for the upcoming season and I have a big problem pulling back my...

    Montana draw

    Just checked my Montana account and see that I was successful in my draw. At least that's what it says.

    Clothing Optional

    I have Sitka gear since about 2013 or so that I used archery hunting in Idaho. Honestly that's the last time I bought camo gear. I moved to Indiana in 2017 and haven't hunted since. Hunting in Indiana where I can shoot a deer on any given day off my patio isn't the same as hunting Elk on public...

    Has Cabelas gone down hill?

    I think so. Ever since they became Bass Pro under the Cabela's name they are no longer the same. It's like shopping in Bass Pro with a Cabela's logo in the background. I always thought the Cabela's brand was better quality than Bass Pro.

    Which handgun as a backup?

    Call me crazy, but when I archery hunt in Idaho Grizzly country I carried my bow and a can of bear spray. All a handgun is going to do is piss it off unless you are an expert marksman and can hit a grizzly in the kill zone charging at 30MPH from 40 yards. I have a friend that is an outfitter in...

    Help With Single Pin Adjustable Sight Tapes

    I went into my local archery shop and they used a chronograph to determine speed. Then they weighed the arrow and took some measurements while I was drawn. They put all this into their system and printed a strip. Then I shot my bow in at 30 yards and put the tape on with the pin on 30. Then you...

    Ukraine / Russia

    So what you're saying is it's the end of the world if this becomes a nuclear war. I think we all kind of figure if it turns to this, history won't matter because there will be no one left to write this into history. I'm no scientist, but I have to believe that having 6000 nuclear weapons hit...

    Ukraine / Russia

    This whole thing is concerning and should be to all Americans. Over the past several years, we have seen our country get further divided by those in charge. We are worried about which bathroom to use while the rest of the world is laughing at us. Now you have a tyrant that appears to be a loose...

    What are you guys paying for gas?

    Gasoline is $3.59 at the Casey's where I live. But my electric pickup the government is going to give me is going to solve all of my concerns about the price of gasoline. That and the rapid deployment of electrical infrastructure to charge said government vehicle anywhere and anytime I want. The...

    Why my pack sucks: Kifaru, Stone Glacier, Exo, Seek, Mystery Ranch, Kuiu, etc.

    I have two Eberlestock backpacks and I love the one I use for my day pack and I don't like the feel of the Team Elk pack I purchased several years ago. I'm planning on an Alaskan Grizzly trip and am looking seriously at the KUIU system. My other choice would be Stone Glacier, but it's a little...

    Montana Elk

    I'm looking to do a DIY Elk hunt in Montana this fall. I understand the draw odds are about 50% for a non-resident general tag and if you pay the $50 extra those odds increase to about 75%. I have a few questions that someone on here could probably answer before calling Fish and Game. 1. Do you...

    New Bow - Hoyt RX5

    Excellent choice. I love my Hoyt Carbon Spider.

    Pot and Guns?

    I think the average gun owner, that also smokes pot, is probably not going to answer the question on the 4473 honestly. And there's no way for anyone at the gun store to say any different. Unless you're pie eyed when you are there. Firearms and an altered state caused by anything, are not a good...

    Lowa boots on Camofire.com

    I've owned a pair of Lowa ever since I started big game hunting. They are the best pair of footwear I've ever purchased for any reason. I'm also not familiar with the website. We have to be careful these days because there are a lot of knockoffs and sites that will take your money and not send...

    What is the preferred window to plan a spot and stalk spring bear hunt for in Idaho? I want a mountable bear.

    I hunted Elk in the Island Park Zone for eight years. There were a lot of wolves in the area. In eight years, I saw seven in one year before there was a season for them, five of them together. Those were the only I saw during that time. Twice I had wolves respond to my cow calls, but never saw...

    Which would you pick out of the "Super Seven"?

    I think I would choose the Muskox just because of the uniqueness of the hunt and it's not something I would probably choose myself if I didn't win it.
