    Spring bear

    Called the ranger district today. Looks like gates are to be unlocked May 1. Will get there May 2, so I'll at least be able to drive in a bit.

    Spring bear

    Plan to be in Idaho unit 12 the first full week of May. Pretty sure the gates will still be locked then so we will backpack in.

    Toyota Tacoma TRD, etc...Seller's Market!

    I got my Bronco last month. It's a good start, like any vehicle. Several mods to make it fit my needs and it will be better. Certainly not worth a year and a half wait and what some are paying for them, but I felt my price point ($37K) was where the value was. That said, for the money you...

    Do Nonresidents have a reasonable chance of drawing Bison, Moose, Sheep, or Goat tags

    No, there is no reasonable chance of drawing unless maybe you put in for every animal in every state and you're still looking at probably a 20 year span to draw something. I decided several years ago that not drawing wasn't going to stop me from hunting. I just use a camera instead of a gun...

    Mountain goat round?

    I don't know that I'd draw that conclusion from a sample of one each, but it could also be the difference in bullet selection as well as bullet placement. A partition loses much of the front end and creates secondary projectiles while the barnes retains almost 100% and creates a more narrow...

    Mountain goat round?

    Well, I guess you could call a 300+lb goat slab sided, but that's one pretty thick slab. Shoulder and front leg bones are more dense than most animals it's size. You still want a good bullet that will penetrate bone, even if the goal is a lung shot, which is not my choice. I want to break...

    What would be the best advise for NR DYI Mountain Goat hunt with no points?

    So, having lived in Kodiak and gone on many Kodiak goat hunts of my own and others, I don't necessarily recommend it for a guided hunt if you live in the lower 48 as your one and only goat hunt. There is nothing wrong with Kodiak if that's where you want to go, but for a guided hunt, I'd...

    Anyone in the auto industry?

    I'm just hoping there's a chip available to go in my new Bronco that is scheduled to be built next month. Planning on using it on my goat scouting trip to MT in August.

    Let’s talk chainsaws!

    I've been looking for an electric to leave in the vehicle for hunting season for deadfalls across the road. I don't really have a need for a real saw, but don't like cruising the backroads without one. Any recommendations? I'm thinking a 14-16in model with two batteries should handle most issues.

    What would be the best advise for NR DYI Mountain Goat hunt with no points?

    Safari press printed a couple of books that were just Jack's magazine articles that are pretty good and may not be that expensive if you can find one. His book on desert hunting is good too. I was lucky to inherit several first printings of O'Connors from my grandfather. They are mostly for...

    No, it's a newer book . https://www.safaripress.com/hunting-wild-sheep-and-goats-around-the-world.html

    What would be the best advise for NR DYI Mountain Goat hunt with no points?

    It's crazy what that one goes for. Even the Safari Press reprint is ridiculous. A good read, and one currently in print so not as expensive, is Hunting Wild Sheep and Goats Around the World. More of a collection of stories and not a how to, but fun to read nevertheless. Makes me wonder what...

    Mountain goat options?

    If you have room for a full mount, that's the way to go. If not, a rug is the way to go. A late season goat rug is about as impressive as any rug of any animal you will ever see.

    What would be the best advise for NR DYI Mountain Goat hunt with no points?

    Unfortunately I do know the cost of some of those books. I just tried to buy a first printing of Alaska Yukon Trophies Won and Lost, and just decided it wasn't worth adding it to my collection. I'm a sucker for books.

    What would be the best advise for NR DYI Mountain Goat hunt with no points?

    It really depends on the area how much they move from summer, fall, and winter. Billies typically only are around nannies for one reason, so in some areas they do move quite a bit late fall. Depending on terrain and snowfall, they may winter in a different area, or may not. Usually though...

    What would be the best advise for NR DYI Mountain Goat hunt with no points?

    I don't know what middle aged is, but I'm 50 and don't think I'm there yet. If you have no points, apply where anyone has a chance of drawing, not just those with the most points. Odds will still be low, but they won't be zero. If you really want to do a goat hunt before it's too late. you...
