    How did the prairie dogs taste?

    Coolers

    Why on top? I'd think having the jugs below would allow meat fluids to drain out and keep your meat dry, which seems better than wet?

    Things I don't recommend

    Also not recommended: Trying to take an alternate route back to camp after stalking and shooting a caribou. It may lead to reaching a cliff you can't get down, having to retrace your steps, and getting back to camp at 3 AM with the first load of meat.

    Things I don't recommend

    Killing a moose 5 miles from camp Killing a moose on the other side of a tall ridge from camp Killing a moose at 5 PM Killing a moose with an out-of-shape brother as your pack out help. On second thought, maybe I do recommend all those things.

    Feelings toward "let's go kill $h!-"

    I cuss a bunch. Cussing itself does not bother me. But I'm not sure you understand the meaning of the word "literally."

    Feelings toward "let's go kill $h!-"

    "Let's go kill something" is very different from "let's go kill shit." You're literally calling the animals you're going to attempt to take "shit." Big difference IMO.

    Feelings toward "let's go kill $h!-"

    Thank god you didn't mention "I smoked him," or you'd have really touched a nerve.

    Bear Meat?

    It's fantastic. One of my favorite meats. Anybody who says they don't like bear meat probably effed it up, either by not getting it cooled off quickly in the field (spring hunts make this challenging, but still very doable), or cooking it improperly.

    Tripod head

    I'm picking up a new Slik 624 tripod, but it seems that nobody runs Slik heads. Are Slik heads subpar? What head do you guys like? As much as I wish I was willing to drop $329 on an Outdoorsman, I'm looking for something under $200. I prefer a pan head to a ball head, and I need something fair...

    Surrender or a Felony?

    I'm just curious why there was doubt to its legality. What in the regs made you think it wasn't?

    Missouri Breaks cow hunt

    Honestly, it's not going to be rocket surgery. You should have little to no trouble finding elk. Get near timber, find a high point, look around. If that doesn't work, find a different high point near different timber. Do that 2 or 3 times and you'll find cow elk.

    The only pieces of equipment NECESSARY for an archery elk hunt are a bow, an arrow, and a broadhead.

    Montana preference point question

    It doesn't look like you can buy a bonus point if you're not eligible to apply for the drawing, so no 12 year olds with 11 points or successful drawers getting back in with 7.

    Mule Deer Bedding

    Could be 1/2 mile. Could be 2 1/2 miles. I've seen deer do both regularly.

    Colorado vs Montana?

    I'm not sure I want to be the kind of guy who takes hunting "trips." I want to be the kind of guy who "hunts."

    Grizzly Bears are off the Protected List

    It will happen, but none of us will ever draw a tag. If you think sheep tags are hard to draw...

    Colorado vs Montana?

    I'm in O&G. My boss' position made it through the downturn, so I'd expect it to be secure. The role is basically my current job, but at an area level vs a district level.

    Colorado vs Montana?

    Here's the whole situation. I'm in line for a new opportunity if I stay here too. Pay would be about equal either way. I have no debt (save the mortgage, which finding housing that's comparable in the Denver area looks like a challenge). The non-career upside to moving would be social life...

    Colorado vs Montana?

    I have an interview on Friday to fill my boss' position in Denver. There is a strong possibility that I will get an offer. It would be a great opportunity, but I'm really torn about leaving Montana. I love being able to get out in the country within 30 minutes of town. I can go shoot my bow...
