    I will show you mine, and my Daughters :D This picture is of my Daughters deer. It was the only day of deer hunting I was able to get her to go. This buck had cheaters the week before that would have pushed him over 32" outside spread. The way he sits his is 177 gross. This was a buck I...

    SHOOT! (pic)

    She looks like she is ready to go! My dog will point off game if nothing is going on. I have even seen her point dragonflys in the back yard. Good luck on that sawthooth zone tag. I have heard a lot of guys are not going to hunt there because of the wolf population. Ron

    The first chukar and Sage grouse this season

    Well today was my first chukar hunt this season. It opened on 9-18-04 but I have been waiting for it to cool down some. I was hoping that gretta would not forget how to work chukar. On the first hunt I chose a place I have seen chukar while deer hunting. i have hunted it twice and so far no...

    Idaho's biggest bulls here

    DS, you are the man. You are right I am wrong. With this letter I am done replying to you. You said "You may be a reserve F&G, but they obviously didn't require you to be a biology major. Because any first year biology student knows when game over populates, as you claim they are in many of the...

    Idaho's biggest bulls here

    37, I personally think in the clearwater the reason for a total decline in numbers is the lack of fire to restore the habitat. Other reasons like predators has been kicked around. Even to the point as having extra tags open for bears and lions. I think that some prescribed burning in the...

    Idaho's biggest bulls here

    All I can tell you is what happens here in Idaho. I am a reservest for Idaho F&G. I can tell you that the the largest bulls here are being killed NOT in the wilderness areas. The clearwater has had a drop in overall numbers not just bulls. I know for a fact that our late season counts are saying...

    Idaho's biggest bulls here

    1-pointer, most of our units here in southern part have a GOOD amount of public land and access. I have only hunted private land once and we didn't even get a elk there. All of my elk and deer have came from public land. It is funny that the thought is either elk are ten miles into a wilderness...

    Idaho's biggest bulls here

    Lets look at one of the most roaded units in the state, Unit 53. In the last few years it has produced 3 mega bulls over 380. It has also produced two bucks I know of over 260. The bull hunt is a OPEN hunt! The buck hunt is a OPEN archery hunt. In our state the herds that are growing the fastest...

    Idaho's biggest bulls here

    Tell that to the guys that are hunting the selway and frank church. They are seeing less elk every year and the size of the bulls is not much to brag about. Most guys have this type of idea that way off roads equals big bulls and bucks. this ends up with more and more people heading into the...

    Upland Bird plans for this year???

    The reason the dogs don't get a long is food. The spaniel is a glutton. She will fight for food. She should be in a one dog family. She is a very well behaved dog. But she is a little touchy with her food. OSOK, For quail and pheasant the ESS does well. I hunt mostly chukar. The GSP ROCKS at...

    Upland Bird plans for this year???

    1-pointer. I have a Female Springer named ANN. I need to find a new home for her. She is a titled Junior hunter. She could have gone farther but she started to point part time. Spaniel rules say that is a no no. She is line steady and hunts well. She was steady to wing and shot for a while but...

    She'll chase a bird this weekend

    I disagree, a pup like that will disappoint you. YOu sould give her to me No realy she is a great looking pup, but I would NOT give her any pigeons. Wild birds make a bird dog. I think pigeons are not good for puppys if the trainer does not know what they are doing.

    GPS in hand

    While I am not familiar with the 45. The newer GPSR's are much better at their job than the older units. They are smaller in size, faster, and they are cheeper to use. The etrex standard legend can take maps and runs on only two AA. Your older 45 I bet takes four AA. The older units do fine...

    GPS in hand

    You are welcome. Now after you feel you are prety good with it you need to figure out how to "project" a way point. Lets say you are on a ridge and you see elk on a far ridge. With a map and your GPS you can project a way point to the elk. Then in the morning in the dark you have the GPS lead...
