    Montana - Time to Shake it Up?

    I would guess that the majority of Montana hunters are not willing to give up opportunity. I would guess that if FWP catered to the majority of their customers wants, then hunting would deteriorate further. So wanting the public to be involved in decision making, might not be that great of an...

    Bend Over

    When I was un my late teens in Ireland, I injured my back playing sports. I went to a chiropractor a couple of times, both times I was there over 30 mins getting "worked on". Both times I felt good initially, but the next day the pain returned. Then I went to see a chiropractor in Belfast...

    My arrow just hit a TWIG en route to the deer of a lifetime

    Before I ever killed a bull elk with my bow, I had arrows be deflected by twigs at least 3 times. The worst one was when a shot at a charging black bear got deflected and sailed past her.

    Post-pandemic US GDP rate compared to G20 countries

    Can't say that I disagree with you, the US appears to have rebounded better than any other economy. It may mean it falls most when things go bad?

    Post-pandemic US GDP rate compared to G20 countries

    The economy always has cycles, no matter which political party is in office. The current cycle has been an incredibly long up cycle, basically from back during Obama, continuing trough Trump, and now through Biden. History says it will down cycle at some point, as it always does. Personally...

    Grizzly Incident Count

    I think it's got to be, by far, due to the vast increase in the number of grizzly bears. Bears are showing up places that they haven't been in 100 years, and now people live in those places. I'm not sure that I buy the idea that more people recreating is a major part of the problem. Actually...

    MT opener

    I'm at home, couldn't leave this evening. My son, whom I'll meet up with tomorrow, sent me an inreach message from his bivy sack on a mountain in the Great Bear Wilderness. He was watching elk from his sleeping bag before dark.

    Almost time - Are you ready?

    I have a 4 day backpacking trip starting tomorrow, a 4 day camping trip in Yellowstone the following week, and then archery season will start, ready or not. Opening weekend of archery is more a weekend camping trip for me, too many people, and usually too hot. It was 102 degrees here in...

    Two Years of Bidenomics

    Donald Trump was president towards the end of one of the best economic cycles in history, yet somehow managed to drive the country further into debt than anyone before him. I'm surprised that the current administration has managed to stop the inevitable downturn from happening so far. It's...

    2023 World Cup

    I grew up in Ireland, a place where everyone played football (soccer), well everyone that was male. There was one girl that played, only one that I ever knew off. Woman's soccer is pretty much something that has been driven by the USA, and the rest of the world is kind of following suit...

    Retirement: When would you like to retire? Do you have a plan to get there?

    I had a goal of retiring at age 55. It probably wouldn't have happened, but the decision was made for me, the company I worked for got taken over, and my position was eliminated. A few days after my job ended I adjusted to life after work, despite having worked for almost 30 years at that...

    Grizzly kills woman hiker in Montana yesterday, by Yellowstone

    I try to not hike/hunt alone in grizzly country, but more often than not I'm alone. When hiking I'll talk out loud to make noise, if someone ever meets me they will think I'm crazy. Hunting alone is the worst, as you're trying to be quiet, or trying to sound like an elk. If a bull doesn't...
