    out of state advice

    I brought along a satellite device, so I was able to check in with everyone. My family would never forgive me if I didn't check in at least every 24hrs :ROFLMAO:

    out of state advice

    Hey y'all, So I didn't see a thing, but i felt like I got a lot out of this hunt. I learned a lot about my capabilities, and it was my first time hunting in real winter conditions. I was prepared, my gear was good, didn't get into any situations I didn't feel I could get myself out of. Spent a...

    Pet Insurance?

    Yes. I didn’t get insurance until he was 3, and once I build my emergency fund back up I’ll likely back down on the insurance.

    Thanks everyone. I think I'm just overthinking it, and needed some encouragement. I'll let you know how it goes!

    What does your hunting preparation workout routine look like?

    I am still rehabbing an injury, but my plan for working out between now and next elk season include: - swimming (hoping it will get me into good shape without over working my injured ankle) - lifting heavy (getting my squat and deadlift to 100lbs each) - yoga - hiking, building up to at least 5...

    out of state advice

    Hey thank you, this is great advice. I generally keep a lot of this stuff in my car in winter anyway, so just adding a few more things that you've mentioned will round out my gear needs I think. I've got a game cart that I'll bring, so I can def get an animal to my car and field dress it on my...

    out of state advice

    Edited my post to add relevant info. I guess my main concern is I feel so overwhelmed by the planning of it all. Like I am worried that what I know/ have done in the past is somehow not enough preparation to travel and hunt and that I am missing something.

    out of state advice

    Hey ladies, I've got tags out of state and I was planning to hunt the late season (early Jan). Unfortunately it's looking like I'll be hunting by myself- I've done this before, but usually on small parcels within an hour of home where I'm very comfortable. Luckily (I think?) the department of...

    Pet Insurance?

    I'm going to chime in even tho I don't hunt my pup, tho he is game crazy. He's been in a fight with a pitt, and he's had some issues with gastroenteritis this year. The dog fight spurred my to get insurance, bc had the other owner not paid for it the bill would have been $1000. My insurance...

    Women in the outdoors

    I really want to start teaching other women how to hunt. Looking to try to volunteer with division of wildlife next year/ season. I think there is definitely demand for women teachers in this environment.

    I can understand that. I try to get in a couple minutes at least everyday, but sticking to that can be tough!

    I didn't get a chance to try this out when my Dad was in town a few weeks ago. I might be able to try this weekend :)

    I think I got a pointer...help!

    It's been awhile since I've posted, but here's an update on Duke: I've taken him on a few hikes and he loves all the new smells in the woods :) On the longest hike (about 3 hours), there was a river that he waded in, but he seems to be unsure about swimming. I haven't yet tried to lure him in...

    New dog journey...

    I'm so happy for you!! Hank is doing great! It's definitely a process, but I find that patience and rewarding the small steps forward really helps both the pup and me :)

    New dog journey...

    1_pointer- my training book recommended a slip collar (with the two metal rings) to help with pulling and heel. Duke is a puller and the collar is really helping with teaching heel too. Again its my first time doing all this, but it is helping, FWIW.
