    Smoked salmon

    Nice! I can taste those Reds just by looking at them. I recently jerked my remaining Silvers and they turned out awesome!

    Which is the better glass?

    Interesting. Most opinions of the Meostars are extremely positive. I picked up a set of Meostar 15s last year for long range glassing. Outside the $800 price difference, I had a hard time discerning any difference optically between them and the SLC HDs.

    Which is the better glass?

    That may very well be. I'd definitely opt for the Japanese made version if I couldn't live without a pair of Razors. The UHD line I've seen are Japanese made.

    Which is the better glass?

    All of my experience is with Made in Japan Razors, but I know Made in China Razors are out there. It doesn't really matter where they're made, though. If you actually use Razors for more than just casual birding, you're likely going to need the VIP warranty at some point. Just the way it is.

    Which is the better glass?

    Between the two, I'd go Zeiss without hesitation. I've had a lot of Vortex optics over the years, to include a set of 12x Razors, and I've had to use the VIP warranty on almost every piece of Vortex optical equipment I've owned.

    2020 California Bear

    Bears are always a little ugly when they aren't haired up. He has the potential to be an absolute beauty when his coat's full.

    Kind of an ugly bugger isn't he?

    Favorite Primer Talk

    I often test for best primer when the conditions call for it. I have CCI, Federal, Win, and Rem primers on my bench with different flavors within each brand. My loads almost always end up using CCI or Federal for best performance. The Winchesters collect dust. I don't concern myself with cup...

    Free Range Barbary/Aoudad Sheep

    They are non-native, or exotic. Generally speaking, there are no tags required to hunt exotics in Texas, only a hunting license, but expect to pay for land access to hunt them. There are some draw hunts that you can get to hunt exotics in the parks. Otherwise, there is very little public land...

    Free Range Barbary/Aoudad Sheep

    My ram is 29" 30" is usually considered the gold standard for a big ram. Relating to score, I consider a public land free ranging 28-30" ram to be equivalent to a B&C Awards category buck or bull. A lot of old rams, like mine, end up in this category because they wear their tips off before...

    Free Range Barbary/Aoudad Sheep

    She was absolutely solid on that hunt. She wasn't phased at all with all of the climbing, and she made an awesome shot to put him down. You couldn't wipe the smile off her face.

    This is a 26" ram my daughter took in the same area.

    Free Range Barbary/Aoudad Sheep

    I found this old warrior while on an evening hike in the hills last week. I've looked over several rams in this area and helped some friends take several mid to upper 20" rams over the the last few months before this ram convinced me he was the best in the area. One shot in the boiler room...

    Thinking of adding a pair of 15x56 binos

    My brother in law is getting some UHD 18s for us to test side by side. I'm looking forward to trying them.

    Thinking of adding a pair of 15x56 binos

    Can't say. I haven't used 18s yet. I want to though.

    Thinking of adding a pair of 15x56 binos

    Option 1 and leave the spotter in the truck. Even the best of 12s just don't do anything exceptionally well. They don't have enough FOV to compete with 8s or 10s, and they don't have the magnification to compete with a good set of 15s. I've used a lot of glass combinations over the years and...
