Kelty Trekker for meat hauling
If you don't have the funds then don't sweat it. My brother has packed probably 12 dall sheep and a few moose in his internal frame and never snivels meanwhile I show up in all the fancy gear and whine LOL. Do the newer style "meat shelf" packs haul better? Sure but don't let using an older...- Lawnboy

Durfee Hills
It can be super hit or miss in there. From what I hear lately mostly miss. It isn’t that big of an area and would be super frustrating if there was more than 1-2 other groups in there. Much of the terrain is thick ponderosa stands with zero feed due to all the pine needles. Looks like the...- Lawnboy

SHOT Show preview - New Leupold Rangefinder Bino
I was thinking the same thing. Pretty sure my friends Swaro binos with range finding lack nothing. I do hope Leupold has success with these and and maybe can come in at a lower price point than the others. -
Does pack color really matter?
I've always thought by not having a camo pattern I have a better chance at resale to hit the non hunter market as well.- Lawnboy

Where to apply 13 points to get aging dad a good bull in Utah
What constitutes a "good bull"? I'm curious because I might be shopping units other than the one I've been applying for. -
This Should Be Interesting
Hmmm. I guess it could of been worse but it could of been way better. Thanks Randy for your valiant effort. I love the spin on the influx of herds of beavers now. No mention of the elk numbers prior to and now. And then to show a heathy looking bull get taken down but add the dialogue that...- Lawnboy

Government Shutdown
I've got a bad feeling about this whole deal. Mattis and others fleeing. Interest rates and inflation peeking out. I voted for Trump and like some things he's done but others I'm just not ok with. You can only get divorced so many times and continue to blame the spouses before you look in...- Lawnboy

Another bear lawsuit
I used to think the same. I had an employee/friend who is an absolute bear nut finally take me out to prove my ignorance. We saw 6 the first night. He was seeing 40-60 different bears in a season. The good bear hunters know when, where, and how to look for them. I was amazed. We don't bait...- Lawnboy

This Should Be Interesting
It will be interesting to watch for sure. One thing I've noticed and learned being around Randy is that he tends to keep a level head on issues and evaluates situations without jumping to extreme conclusions. My guess is that many may be disappointed by the lack of "kill them all" that they...- Lawnboy

Where to apply 13 points to get aging dad a good bull in Utah
I have 15 and don't seem to get any closer at drawing my chosen unit. I really don't want to burn the points on a unit that is going to give me a good shot at a 330 bull. Was kinda hoping for 350+ but I may be waiting till I'm 65 for a unit like that to open up -
Possible Relocation to Montana!
I think Helena would be a great place. I just drove through there last week on my way to Great Falls. I couldn’t believe there’s no snow on the yards. The winters can be long down here in Bozeman as we are sitting on 6 inches of snow on our lawn’s already. Everything you like to do can be had...- Lawnboy

Public Land Etiquette Question
I learned my lesson 2 yrs ago on one of the biggest archery bulls I've ever hunted. I'd been on him 3 days in a row when he moved over a mountain at dark with his cows. I knew right where I needed to be in the morning which wasn't far from a trailhead. I get there in the morning in the dark...- Lawnboy

One-day MT Mule Hunt on YouTube
That bearclaw as you recall allowed me to power out of that hell hole in the lead. As I recall the other two fit sexy men ultimately caved to my power snacks as they realized their “bear scat” looking cliff bars weren’t cutting it or maybe it was the 1lb log of summer sausage and crackers I was...- Lawnboy

I'm sure no one else on here misses roosters.....
Looks like a great day! I remember Bill well. I saw him as a kid growing up in town but didn’t know what he did until later in life. He helped to repair a gun that I damaged in a cliff accident in Alaska. I’ll always remember the rooster feathers he had sticking out of the back of his bed of...- Lawnboy

More discussion on non-lead ammo - New York Times
I shoot the Barnes 168 LRX in my 7 WSM with great results. They are super accurate. I usually switch to Bergers over 500 yds. I tried like crazy to get Accubonds to shoot well but just couldn't.- Lawnboy
