    To protect eagles, hunters and conservationists rebuild old alliances (non-lead ammo)

    Agree, Mustang. The antis harvest threads like these to demonstrate that hunters don’t care. Ultimately, people resort to proclaiming “death to eagles” because they don’t have anything intelligent to say. It’s an argument of last resort, and is ineffective in terms of persuasion. It is, however...

    Yolo Bypass

    Hi David, There are islands through the area that people typically set up on, and there should still be plenty of cover this early in the season. I’ll PM you an area I’ve had consistent success in over the years.

    A great couple days…

    I love this sort of thing. You'll remember this hunt forever.

    To protect eagles, hunters and conservationists rebuild old alliances (non-lead ammo)

    Sigh. This is making my butt tired. Here’s my response to your response of my critique of your critique of my original post from the OP. It’s easy to determine why the USFWS banned lead shot for waterfowl. Just look up the Federal Register notice and read their rational. Let me help. It’s 51...

    To protect eagles, hunters and conservationists rebuild old alliances (non-lead ammo)

    Please. The OP asked for opinions. I gave mine. You’re welcome to agree or disagree. Here’s my critique on your condescending and misinformed reply: -If you wish to engage in an informed discussion, you should not make assumptions. I’m not promoting a lead ban, and never said anything like it...

    To protect eagles, hunters and conservationists rebuild old alliances (non-lead ammo)

    Nonlead ammo is a no-brainer. There’s a reason it has been required for waterfowl hunting since 1991. I understand how some hunters can feel like the lead issue is another infringement of our sport, but it’s not. Also, this isn’t one of those live-and-let-live issues. Wildlife, both game and...

    Sweet new Sitka film (snowboarding included!?!)

    Yep, nothing like spending $300 on a pair of pants to make us feel like better hunters.

    Bear Attack Video

    Of all the places to be attacked by a bear, that is the one I least desire. You can see that the sow had a cub at about 1:24.

    A deer hanging in camp

    That’s the best kind of hunt.

    Dog Bite While Packing Bull Out

    Pistols are useless if they aren't used. I suspect that's the message.

    Dog Bite While Packing Bull Out

    I walk daily in my neighborhood and always carry pepper spray. Too many people flagrantly disregard their responsibility to keep their ridiculous dogs under control. Not long ago, my wife and I were on a walk, and a pit bull burst out of a house and came running toward us, teeth bared and...

    Arkansas/Oklahoma Fall Bear

    Hunt the acorns! Since baiting isn’t legal in California, we must find them where natural feed draws them. Look for fresh scat and still hunt their feeding grounds in the evenings and mornings. You can harvest bears this way, but it takes more time and effort.

    Glad I “ruined” your hunt. Yes you deserve to die and I hope you burn in hell!

    “you deserve to die and I hope you burn in hell”? You need some perspective.

    Family’s first hunting trip first solo animal

    Way to go! I've had my sling cause problems more than once, especially when turkey hunting. I always try to remove it if I can.

    Archery bear success in California

    This year really surprised me. The drought is very real in the Sierras, but the choke cherry production is through the roof. I hunted a patch of choke cherries for six days since the season began, and saw from two to four bears every day in the thicket. I had two opportunities, but couldn’t make...

    2021 California Bear

    Four days is a long time to scout when you could be hunting. Bear movements can change between the time you scout and hunt, depending on food and water availability. I used to scout hard prior to the opener, but bears know when you’ve been in their territory, and I’d prefer the first time they...
