Chile verde for a broken horn oryx - Excited to get back down there later this year! Seems like there are a lot of folks who drew some fun tags this year!
I just caught wind Hank Shaw has another book coming out called Borderlands. I can say his Buck Buck Moose book has been a staple in our house for many years and as a result, a gift to so many friends and family who hunt. Amazing recipes. We are pumped to check out these new recipes in this...
Split the difference for my first go with a 40# pack. 1:05 total from gate to concrete. Great throw down, @dmarsh2
First time on the trail and it’s a good one! Can’t wait to see how it progresses as the spring and summer come and go.
The nicer weather has me wanting to get out. Anyone else doing any hikes recently? I may try to get an early morning one in on Saturday if I can swing it. Sunrise. Let me know if you want to join and that will help me make sure it happens.

Good luck everyone (for...

Still need to make some posole, pinto beans and red chile to really help it feel like Christmastime.
We make a good amount of chorizo when we make our sausage. Using that in some queso is pretty tasty. We’ve also made some egg rolls before that were amazing. A bit of work, but they were a hit.
Congrats! Looks like an awesome bull. I am getting antsy - I head out later in January for my first oryx hunt on range. Out of curiosity, how long of a shot was required? Since you’ve been multiple times, I’m interested to hear how they have played out. Shooting off of a tripod or similar...
I messed around not knowing much when I was about 10-11 and then my dad started getting interested while we were on our summer camping trips. It led to him hiring a guide for us for a day of wade fishing a small meadow creek that was loaded with eager fish ready to crush dries. Talk about a...
