    Public Land Turkey Strategies

    I'd head back out there and don't be surprised if you call in different birds to the same spot the next day.

    Eastern Montana antelope

    I disagree. They tend to move to private about 8 AM on opening morning, but they tend to trickle back onto public later in the season, once 95% of the pressure is gone.

    Where is the hypocrisy?

    No MSG under 18?

    I'm obviously in the minority, but the minimum age limit doesn't really bother me. If your 12 year old only wants to get into hunting if they can shoot a MSG, well, they probably aren't going to get into hunting. With Montana now allowing parents to buy points for their newborns, it's only a...

    Alaska Caribou Hunt Tips

    If you don't know what tussocks are, imagine the image below, spaced 4 inches apart, sitting on a soaking wet memory foam mattress. Have fun!

    I hope your job doesn't involve spelling.

    General Tag Confusion

    Look at the regulations for each district. Any district that says, "General Deer License" or "General Elk License" means you can hunt there on your general tag. Additional regulations may apply re: sex, antler restrictions, etc., but those are listed about a half an inch below where it says...

    Landowner claims BLM is his private property

    You're not taking it too far. But, small six point? We must have different definitions of small.

    Kimber Mountain vs Hunter

    Thanks. It's hard for me to justify that much extra money for a few ounces, when I can find a few ounces of weight savings elsewhere in my gear for less. I'm still weighing options for caliber, I didn't realize the .280 AI had the smallest difference, that was just the one I was looking at...

    Kimber Mountain vs Hunter

    Is there any difference between the Kimber Mountain and the Kimber Hunter rifles? Looking at Kimber's specs, the stock seems to be the only difference. I'm having a hard time justifying an extra $1100 to save 6 ounces on the stock. Am I missing something? Is there any other reason to choose one...

    Dems Say ND Hunters Who Vote May Lose Liscense

    There is a massive amount of residency fraud that occurs in western North Dakota, regarding taxes, vehicle registration, hunting licenses, etc. I highly doubt voting would actually trigger any consequences, but that doesn't mean it's not illegal.

    When shots are too far for you it doesnt matter what caliber you are toting

    This isn't personal, but therein lies the issue. Too many hunters STRETCH their comfort zone for a live-animal situation beyond what they've practiced, instead of the opposite. If you're practiced at 200, you have no frame of reference for your abilities at 300, when you've added in...

    Vote Public Lands

    Thank you. To use biblical language in a secular sense, I can forgive the 35 year old sins of a 53 year old man, but only if he repents. His behavior during testimony, IMO, is what disqualifies him to be a SCOTUS judge. Not what he may have done as an 18 year old.

    Montana Muley

    I headed out for a quick hunt after work. My plan was to make a big circle to get to the downwind side of a draw that I know deer funnel through. I made a good trek to the fenceline that marked the boundary between public and private, and then headed down the fenceline with plans to set up on...

    Feeling discouraged.

    I saw a total of ONE elk the first 6 years I elk hunting in the mountains. Needless to say, I was a slow learner.
