Whitetail Elevation Question
I am planning on hunting above 6000’ this weekend and I’ll be looking to fill an elk tag. I am just curious if the Whitetail will be up that high. I see Muleys at all elevations but the Whiteys are kinds spotty. If my elk Tag is not notched by the weekend I had better drop a bit in elevation. -
Whitetail Elevation Question
By the sounds of it. It would appear that they prefer lower elevations. -
Whitetail Elevation Question
I have been hunting Whitetails in central Idaho and I have heard that Whitetails are non migratory, meaning, they have a home range of about a couple miles. This has me questioning: will they only be at low elevations due to the snow levels in the winter? Is the whole non migratory thing a... -
My $1,300 hunting rig
$174 dollars later, the moment of truth was, “will the tires clear the wheel wells and suspension” I was super nervous on this one. I cranked the wheel left and did a full circle. I cranked the wheel right and did a full circle. Not only was there no rubbing, but it was alarmingly smooth. A lot...- Nambaster

My $1,300 hunting rig
After some frantic searching I managed to find another Sailun Terra Max in 265/75/R16 but, it was mounted on a Ford 5 lug rim and my truck is a dodge 6 lug pattern. So I ended up buying 5 tires already mounted on 5 rims so I could acquire a 16” 6 lug pattern for remounting of the final Sailun...- Nambaster

My $1,300 hunting rig
I found a good donor but she was only sitting on 3 legs. The 4th tire sustained significant damage from a collision and would not be useable. My existing rims were 15” and the donor had 16” rims so the tire/rim package would definitely be an upgrade. The 3 tires were Sailun Terra Maxes size...- Nambaster

My $1,300 hunting rig
Do you invest $1065 on brand new rubber for a truck that you bought for $1300? Definitely not. Back to the salvage yard I went.- Nambaster

My $1,300 hunting rig
Looking at the front tires, it was obvious that replacing all 4 tires was necessary. note: those front end tires were already worn badly due to the misalignment of the truck prior to purchase when the front suspension was shot. I didn’t even bother rotating due to their wear.- Nambaster

Agricultural elk
I went at first light and checked the property. I watched 31 elk just on the other side of the fence of the property I am allowed to hunt. They were cow calling non stop. I spoke with the spanish ranch hand, and he pointed to an elk rack hung over his dog kennels and informed me that he had... -

For sure! I have always skipped pronghorn but he was dead set on wanting one. Even though it was a 5 hour drive, it still ended up being a rodeo. -

McCall B tag going solo
This is an unlimited tag hunt. So a lot of residents will be out hunting it. You also might see more Washington State plates than Idaho plates in this hunt. The Washington State guys are usually very friendly and willing to spill their guts when it comes to hunt info. I would start by looking at...
