My family has 2x 23's with serial numbers below 1000. Both well used. If sold Id expect $1800-2000 minimum each. New in box though? I dont care what the blue book says. Thats an almost 50 year old unicorn. Id want $3500+ for it, but Id never sell it either.
Let it out of the coop and then shoot it. Or just let it go and try tomorrow so it's more fair chase. Maybe try bringing your son turkey hunting with you since he seems to have the hang of it haha!
Once I "poached" a grouse when I hit it with a fist sized rock. Not a legal method of take in...
Living and hunting through some of CA's huge destructive fires really got me thinking. The stories of how the forest looked before the white man settled here intrigued me. My opinions of the Western cedar/pine forests...
Fire is good for the forest, IF the forest is healthy. A healthy forest...
Curious what else you know about why it's not open to the public vs what RMEF says in the video. Still great it was conserved for the Tule Elk but hunting access was probably a huge part of the goal in conserving the land.
Iphone 12, onx maps, full day of tracking with onx and using inreach mini on airplane mode will zap around 60% of the battery. Battery is in good shape still but I figure its an item I charge daily. Thats using tracking though. With onx tracking turned off, I can go 2-3 days easily without...
Its too bad CAFW has no plans to establish new elk herds! So much habitat with so few animals.
Great bull Buzzy! You made the most out of a very long wait.
Long, long, hike to catch my first brook trout. Some of the best looking habitat Ive seen, yet completely devoid of deer or bear. Not just that beautiful pocket meadow above me, the whole 5 mile long basin.
From one boat builder to another, well done! Looks like you did some TBN homework, yea? Wish I had found them before my build and gone to all aluminum flooring. Good choice on the hydroturf, that stuffs great.
I did a 1979 Starcraft 160SS, which would be a 16'/60" for comparison, deep V...
Id give it 2 years or less and stand alone satellite communications will be obsolete. Right now I have the inreach mini and the cheapest plan is around $100/year. Soon all cell phones will be satellite capable on the starlink network. It's just a matter of time as technology evolves. Right...
All East of 5 freeway blacktails.
Local yard bucks
2 big forks at 9000', shared before, sry the pics arent great. Darker one was probably 14+" tall and outside the ears
Obvious yard buck
Hopefully I have a weird huge forky to share in a week. Hes tall, junky, and on a private spot I can...
The one "camp" pic I never take is the simple borah bivy setup. Spent countless nights in it on bluebird days, and even more in a tipi. Never used a tarp with it but i can see the benefit in weather. Im sure you can more than get by with the bivy and tarp.
Borah bivy is very water resistant...
