Seekins PH3 7 Back Country
Yes just the chassis, like being able to fold it up and strap it onto my pack, keeps it nice and compact. It will be my go to rifle for backpack hunts but probably won't be using it on day hunts. The element is a great gun also and if it were a gun that a guy may use still hunting through...- elkhuntinfool78

Sheep Show in Reno
There's a fair amount going on but I guess I'd rather take the days spent there and have that time on the mountain instead. No doubt a lot of people enjoy the show but it's just not for me. I just have a hard time with where hunting has went in my life. It's becoming a rich man's game and...- elkhuntinfool78

Sheep Show in Reno
I went this year and I guess it's just not my thing. For the most part I thought it was mostly wealthy guys with egos bigger than the state of Alaska looking to "buy " their next trophy.- elkhuntinfool78

Self Guided Public Land B & C Records
Some exceptional animals sir! That said I was more asking if a differentiation between guided and self guided, public vs private would be of interest to the average guy or if most do not care to know those details- elkhuntinfool78

Self Guided Public Land B & C Records
Hello, Just curious how many here would be curious what the percentage of self guided hunters taking an animal on public land are in the Boone and Crockett records books? And if there were a specific category in the Boone and Crockett records, would more average guys become members of the B&C...- elkhuntinfool78

Seekins PH3 7 Back Country
Fwiw I just got back home from the wild sheep show in reno. I stopped by and talked to the folks at seekins and must say i was impressed with the new stuff. Also they seem like a great bunch of guys which makes a person want to support their company. I ended up ordering a hunter element as I...- elkhuntinfool78

What is your take on the new 7mm Backcountry?
They come out with a new cartridge every other day it seems anymore. At the end of the day if it gets you excited then go for it. On the the flip side there are countless others that would work also. My biggest gripe if I were to buy a new cartridge would be how do you choose which ones will be...- elkhuntinfool78

The average western hunter
Imo there are way more people willing to go in farther these days than I saw 10 years ago. It's made it harder to get away from the crowds. I agree with mtmuley that getting off the main trails is key however I still have ran into a few guys in spots i never would have thought I'd see anyone...- elkhuntinfool78
