    How long leave deer skull in ground

    On pronghorn, you pop the sheath off the core in a few days. They just slide off. On antlered heads, I wedge them with the antlers out of the water level. Play with the angle. If the very top of the cranium is exposed, you can cover it with paper towels. They will wick water to keep it moist...

    7x57 bullet weight

    Alot of time the throat lenght will determine which weight bullet shoots best. Alot of 7x57s have long throats to accommodate the original 175 gr load. So it may not like the excessive jump with the 140s. You'll just have to try and see how they shoot. Mine are all modern commercial guns and...

    What's on the smoker today?

    I let the bacon dry and equalize before slicing. Turned out well.

    What's on the smoker today?

    Decided to use the last of our cold nights to make something new. I put up 20lbs of old fashioned cold smoked breakfast sausage and some buckboard bacon.

    I got good news and I got bad news.

    When my brother told us he was having #3, our friend that overheard told him "Don't quit your job. You'd never make it as a truck driver if you can't pull out on time". Hahaha

    How many deer can you kill in your home state?

    AL- no tags. Deer checked with app. 3 bucks per license. 3rd buck must have 4 on 1 side. Some public land hunts offer bonus bucks that don't count toward total. 1 antlerless per day in most units. Season runs 15-Oct- 10-Feb. So for my zone the total would be 3 bucks, 119 antlerless

    ***OFFICIAL*** 2023 SPRING BEAR THREAD

    100s of hours of watching bear hunts to get better at field judging payed off, with me shooting the 1st average bear I saw. Haha. But it had a beautiful hide. Hot temps made things tough, but the group went 3/3. My wife schooled all of us catching big fish. Overall a great trip, can't wait to go...

    Trout recipes

    Our go to recipes are trout picatta and smoked. We the use the smoked trout for trout cakes and trout dip/spread. The spread is good over bagels with red onion, tomatoes, and capers. You can Google these recipes or I'm happy to send specifics.

    Spring Bear 2023

    Our group has a hunt booked in N Ontario 1st week of June. It can't get here soon enough. No cell phones, no work, only issues will be catching enough fish to fry every day and how big of a bear to hold out for (I hope).

    Terminal Ballistics

    They did. I wish they had compared multiple brands. But if you look at bullet construction, most manufacturers have a counterpart to the models listed.

    Terminal Ballistics

    Excellent article on terminal ballistics on a variety of types of bullet construction. With expanding non-toxic use, it is interesting to see manufactures data compared to field reports on it's limitations...
