    “Alone” season 11 on History channel Thursday nights

    Seems like they all went with tiny shelters. I would lose my mind in those little caves. The Canadian (William) is one tough cookie with an amazingly positive attitude. Timber better get his head right. He has this in the bag if he can keep his demons away. Dub seems like he has just...

    Pronghorn Old Buck Taste

    All taste the same to me. re: big horns do not equate to old bucks. The WY state record was only like 2.5 years old IIRC.

    NOT for SALE - Harrington & Richardson Topper 88 Break-action shotgun

    Killed my first squirrel with one and my little brother killed quite a few animals with it. I "progressed" to a $15 yard sale Stevens single shot 16 ga with hardly any bluing left and the stock had been stripped to a blond color. I killed rabbits, squrrels, ducks and geese with that thing for...

    I 90 east of Gillette detour

    Yeah, fire started a few miles from our house and looks like it may be about 20-30 miles wide now. Thankful the wind shifted but we are still under evacuation orders. LEO has exit and entrance ramps blocked between Gillette and Buffalo.

    Tribal Walleye Spearing

    Same here in WY but it became a state in 1890. No limits, no season, no license required on game. Heck, my ancestors here had no game regulations either... so why can't we hunt without regs or a draw? Just a point to ponder. It's not like they don't have access to grocery stores like the rest...

    Need your help, guys and gals - when do I say goodbye?

    I had the same question three months ago, but when she start having tremors, was jerking in pain and quit eating I had to do it. I knew I couldn't let her suffer any longer out if my own selfishness. Didn't make it any easier though. The bad thing is that she was "energized and alert" on the...

    Netflix: Inside The Mind Of A Dog

    Yeah I know it may sound weird to some folks and many won't say it, but I have lost a couple dogs that tore me apart more than losing people. I lost one three months and two weeks ago and she felt like my soul mate. It seemed she read my mind and I hers. She never got in trouble and as a pup...

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    Maybe. The guys I know and circles I run in are quite different. Serious shooters, guides and competitors. No doubt perspective is based on exposure. I believe you and I are talking about two different species here. Experienced LR shooter and slobs. Not referring to non-LR shooters that way...

    Favorite gun for shooting STOP signs?

    Funny story. My little brother and I were out driving in the country, drinking. Yeah, I know... but who didn't as a teen? Little brother decides to throw a beer bottle at a stop sign but forgot to roll the window down. Shattered the car window. 😂 We were both quite surprised at the moment, lol.

    Garmin Xero is a chronograph that sets on your shooting bench.

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    My turrets won't turn peeling tape off. Even if they did, you set it back to your zero stop (look it up) in about .01 seconds. Shooting at distance usually allows more time for the shot. Oh, my rf binos figure in the environmantals and ballistic calculations automatically when I range. 😁

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    I am willing to bet that most guys with dialing turrets and rf binos miss or wound far less animals than your run of the mill Wal Mart, night before season tag buying "hunter". I have never missed or wounded and lost an animal beyond 500 yards and have killed numerous ones at those distances.

    Favorite gun for shooting STOP signs?

    I've seen guys in the pheasant fields that would have used that if they could. 😁

    Favorite gun for shooting STOP signs?

    I did as a youngster decades ago and still feel like a loser about it. A shameful act. I know this is all in fun, but we all know what image it gives hunters and where the money comes from to replace them.

    How long?

    Ditto. Lots to do. I head up to set up my camp in two weeks but have much to accomplish beforehand.
