    If I may, a few more good ones: @BackofBeyond trying something different, chasing the interesting rather than what he “should” do: https://www.hunttalk.com/threads/wilderness-backpack-pronghorn-hunt.320593/ The misfortunes and triumphs of @MtnElk and paternal head-shaking good nature of his...

    2023 Talkie Hunt Recaps - by popular demand

    Thanks for doing this, @Hunting Wife. There were a bunch of great stories this year, but for me personally, none captured my imagination and took me on a really unique, special journey as @YoungGun ’s buffalo story.

    What are you currently reading?

    I’m so jealous you get to read Infinite Jest for the first time. Just beware that Wallace is basically daring you to read the book for the first 100 pages or so.

    In Praise of the Neck Roast

    SwaggyD and Doug fckn Sticky know what I’m talking about. Jokes about the virtues of Montana mule deer management and swollen forky necks aside, neck meat has become one of my favorite of elk or deer—especially Mississippi Roast style. Big chunk of sinewy meat, perfect for easy slow cooking...

    I hate insurance companies!

    Call me a commie or whatever, but there are just some things that shouldn’t be run as a for-profit business—health care being one of them. Sorry you’re dealing with this, @Dave N

    Hunttalk makes it on Elkshape. You keyboard warriors! Lol

    There’s no way I’m listening to that podcast, and I haven’t even read this whole thread yet, but I’ve got to know if chatGPT and I are influencers— Was there any mention of enormous, quivering hot dogs emerging from jacuzzis?

    Tricer USA

I plan to keep mine for trips where I’ll only be bringing the binos along (or for the Swaro ATC I’m going to win from the Rocky Mountain...

    The Season of Stupid (& elk)

    Hey @MtnElk I’m glad you’re not dead. My best friend and I have a saying that’s a botched play on a Led Zepplin song—good times, bad times, put em together you’ve got medium times. Your season definitely qualifies as some medium times—great stuff, but JFC you had some bad luck. But you don’t...
