The hanger is called "Rack Bracket" and happens to be sold by a fellow Hunt-Talker (Wyoming556). It is very clean looking, comes in two pieces plus a mounting screw, is very sturdy, and is very simple to use. I would definitely recommend this product. I used it for my antelope, but I think it...
I am new to reloading as well, but I would say another BIG +1 for the Barnes 175 LRX. I am using RL-19 at 68 gr. getting about 2935-2940 at the muzzle. My rifle is nothing fancy, the older Weatherby Vanguard synthetic. Pretty sure I paid $325-350 for it new several years ago, but its shooting...
the smell of the sheaths
mdunc8,
The sheaths on both of my antelope have a prety strong smell. I have scrubbed them inside and out with soap then dumped Borax in them for about a week. They still have enough smell that the lady (a.k.a. the boss) wont let me bring them in the house, and I cant...
cleaning method
I used pretty much the same method that Buzzh uses. There is a link to it a few posts above yours. You can also buy the Sal Soda from walmart. Sal Soda is Sodium Carbonate and is also the same thing as Arm and Hammer brand "Super Washing Soda". I did not degrease the two...
Friends first bull
Here is a bull my friend shot this year. It was his first bull, and as you can imagine he still has an ear to ear grin! I have to admit I think I was just as excited as he was. It is very cool to be able to be there when someone shoots their first bull!
It is sad to see the season come to an end, but fun/rewarding to look back on the memories made and success shared. Now its time to start planning for next year.
I killed my bull on the last day I was going to be able to hunt, and even though he was not the biggest bull on the mountain that...
Second buck
This buck was not as smooth as the first. I spent the first part of the season hunting elk and waited to go after this guy. By the time I made it out to my spot that I usually find antelope, I found nothing but gut piles. I got skunked two more trips after that. Then with a little...
This was the first year for me to try and hunt an antelope buck. I had two tags in different units and spent a large part of my free time this summer scouting and trying to spot and stalk with a bow. I came extremely close several times, but was never able to seal the deal. However, I went into...
The note is very clever. I will have to remember it for when I have kids and need to get them out of school! Good luck, and can't wait to see the pictures!!!
Try Prairie Rose Cafe on south 2nd street. They make an amazing breakfast burrito! The Library is actually not here anymore. It is called O'Dwyers now. Luciano's is now in the old wingers building and serves great Italian food.
Well I will do my best to adhere to your guys’ advice:D. According to some of the students a year ahead of me in the program, next year should allow for more hunting. Keeping my fingers crossed…. Hey WyOpitz what’s the P3 year like?
I good friend if mine (NickJ1980) introduced me to this site, and I really liked the atmosphere here so I decided to join. I have never posted about my hunting so you will have to bear with me.
I am currently attending the University of Wyoming and have VERY little free time to hunt. So...
