How close is too close?
We’ve reached the point where no matter where you’re at you will be on someones trail camera so you better make sure you’re not 25’1” away when you shoot. The CSI guys will know if you’re not telling the truth. Also better make sure you clearly inform the bear of your intentions if it does not...- TX Trophy Hunter

School Me on Hunting In Grizz Country
Don’t forget that you’re hundreds of times more likely to die in the truck on the drive up. Not trying to take away from dangers of bears, just don’t get too focused on 1 danger.- TX Trophy Hunter

Health of BLM lands
It’s location dependent. If you drive down a valley in MT it appears that way, but it’s more related to the fact that the private property is down by the rivers and creeks where everything is more lush. If you go just east of CO Springs you’ll find private land that is grazed down to dirt. In...- TX Trophy Hunter

Health of BLM lands
I can relate. I have a Forestry Degree and almost 2 decades with the BLM and USFS and I finally resigned a couple years ago and let my wife go all in on her career. The agencies are more concerned with diversity quotas than hiring people that know what they’re doing. The high ups are constantly...- TX Trophy Hunter

The Rinella Effect
The only YouTube hunter I follow is Rut Daniels. Everyone else is over romanticizing everything. “I like to get in touch with my inner mountain man. Like a modern day Jim Bridger, just with slightly better gear. Like hiking boots. And optics. And down clothes. And trail cameras. And super cubs...- TX Trophy Hunter

West Texas Aoudad Down
Let’s break it down so you can understand. I don’t hunt coyotes because it doesn’t appeal to me. Some people shoot coyotes for no other reason than they like killing things. That’s not exactly what I would consider ethical. Other people kill them for the hides, or because they think coyotes are...- TX Trophy Hunter

West Texas Aoudad Down
I I was referring to your comment that people enjoy killing things and other people make money off that. That has nothing to do with conservation and everything to do with morals. Leave the exotic part out for now. I’m talking about having respect for a living animal and what justifies killing...- TX Trophy Hunter
