    Mountain Lion hunting

    It may look that way in the picture, but that was a near vertical face, about 150ft high. Unless that lion was bitten by a radioactive spider or has some repelling gear, I don't think it's happening.

    Ha ha don't get me wrong, I'm not good at it either! But like you, I'm happy just trying.

    If you ever make it to MT, I'd be happy to tag along.

    Mountain Lion hunting

    Yeah, that makes sense. I guess you have to hunt them where they are. I spose you could string a line with some bear bells ties to it. Then you'd have some advanced warning if something is real close behind you. A mirror might be too visible if the sun catches it, but could help in low light

    Mountain Lion hunting

    When I call for any predator, I try to find places like this If you find a place where one direction of approach is eliminated, it makes it easier to sit still. Or have a buddy set up with his back to you.

    Cougar. Puma. Lion. A hunt.

    I gotta find someone with dogs. Hunting them without is a lot like looking for Bigfoot. Congrats on a great cat. Your hard work paid off

    Wild Turkey Processing

    My turkey this year took about 2 minutes to pluck. It was real easy and the skin is the best part in my book. As for the gizzard, I suggest just deep frying some packing peanuts and eating those. Probably better eating. Oh and the liver tasted like sadness. I braised a leg and wing so far...

    Where should I move to in MT?

    I grew up in Kalispell before moving to helena in 2000. Kalispell is beautiful and remote, lots of precipitation compared to helena, a little more conservative, totally different landscape/environment. Kalispell is wet and thick, helena is dry. I hunt around helena a good deal and its not...

    Divorce, do you ever see it coming...

    These days, you could highlight that book from cover to cover and it would all be applicable. As all hunters know, happiness is a product of struggle. Too much struggle will erode happiness, but too little struggle will undercut it.

    Shotgun?

    If you're trying to bag more of those internet grouse, I'd go with this. Just messing with you Doug. I shoot a BPS and it is much more accurate than I am. Slide locks up sometimes if you don't work the action quickly enough.

    Depublicize, Deglorify, Demonitize (anti-self promoting of hunting group)?

    This really rang true for me. I'll be thinking about this a lot. I don't post about hunting anywhere but here, but maybe even that is diluting the experience. I sure did enjoy my first few walks through the woods before I learned that I was doing it all wrong... I agree with nameless range, we...

    Rifle Shot Placement for Least Meat Loss

    After finishing a bowl of Mexican neck roast stew, I would suggest through the lungs, behind the shoulder.

    Montana extends season (whitetail) for CWD

    Shoulder season tags should only be valid on private land. As for the science, smarter folks than me are working on it. I have nothing else to add to this "bluecollar complaint session."
