    Flying Frontier Airlines with checked firearms...DON'T!!!

    IMO the travelling public has taught the airlines that we are willing to switch carriers for a $10 fare difference. We therefore get the results, good and hard. Frontier seems to be king of the low advertised price, followed by a string of extras. (Oh, you wanted us to actually deliver the gun...

    7-08 for elk rifle?

    The bullet is the only part of the cartridge the elk sees. I use a 7 mag, but the only difference there is more velocity, which is worth maybe 150 yards extra range. Check the ballistics tables. Also hornady superformance will generally give you an extra 100 fps or so. Good luck.

    NJ Whitetail

    Welcome. I lived in Morris and Hunterdon counties for 30 years, mostly hunting in the Great Swamp. DIY western hunting can be a lot cheaper than it looks.

    Fear the Beard... and the Hawken

    What a display of bushcraft, and a buck worthy of the chase. Looking forward to seeing the video. Thank you.

    Kifaru gun bearer

    I have a gunbearer mounted on my MR Dragonslayer (it holds all that I am I interested in carrying at one time). I am using the version made for Kifaru packs, which attach to the waist belt using molle clips. I originally got the universal version, then discovered that the velcro was chewing up...

    Download On Your Own Adventures Episodes

    Will Fresh Tracks Season 5 be available for download? The High Definition version of FT Season 4 was great. Well worth the extra time to download.

    6 Million YouTube Views

    My wife is going to wonder exactly how much time I am spending watching these Youtube videos. We have not had cable for many years - my wife is OK with broadcast TV, and most of what I watch are the Randy Newberg videos. No interest in the usual TV show. One suggestion - I liked the DVDs and...

    Need help picking a new hunting rig.

    I have a 2008 4Runner. Since I live in the middle of Houston it makes more sense than a pickup. I tow a 5x8 trailer when hunting. The 4Runner does about 80% of what I want - that last 20% really costs.

    GPS vs Phone

    I have been using an android tablet and my phone for maps, in addition to my GPS. I use Onxmaps on the GPS for land ownership, and Avenza and Backcountry Navigator Pro on the phone and tablet to actually navigate. There is obviously a big difference in the screen between my GPSMap 62 and the...

    Hunting with a knee injury?

    Back in 2008 I got a hernia on a moose hunt, trying to throw a bag of someone else's meat into the back of a pickup. I then went on an elk hunt. Two of us had cow elk tags in NM, and wound up taking two cows a mile and a half from the road. That was a long day. Every so often I had to lie...

    45 goes to Yellowstone

    Thanks for the story and the great pictures. Beats the stuffing out of Disney World, even if you did not get to see Yogi and BooBoo. Back in 1992 I was able to arrange a side-trip to the park in February after a business trip to Billings. I did not think I would be able to find a room in the...

    Canada Moose Hunt

    Cost for a moose hunt is strongly related to antler size. Unless your mom is bound and determined to get a B&C moose, I agree with Newfoundland. I did a moose hunt with Patey and sons in 2008. If you could shoot and walk, you got a moose. They fly you in to cabins on little lakes in a...

    Thoughts on IMR 7977?

    I can't help you with the 7977, although I am curious as to how it turns out. I also shoot a 7 mag. I have been using H-4831 for 140 gr copper bullets, and mostly shooting my stash of factory ammo with the 160 gr Accubonds. 4 boxes takes a while to go through. Based on the penetration with...

    Random Gun Blasphemy

    This will probably get me tarred and feathered, but here goes. All opinions my own only. The thought process is more important than the exact answer. IMO, the type of rifle and the caliber makes almost no difference to whether it will kill elk or shoot accurately for hunting purposes...
