Caught it on a fishing trip in AK, from locals. Slept the first 2 days, no taste/smell days 4 &5, hacked up flem days 4-7. Back to normal life after day of quarantine. Now 2 of us out of a family of 4 have had it and no adverse effects. My work stated over half of the new "wave" of positive...

Family of four, eat on average 1 elk, 1 mule deer buck, and 2 WT/MD doe each year. Raise our own beef, but once or twice a year will buy Wagyu steak/tri tip/brisket. Chicken is the only meat we buy at the store. Luckily we have had salmon, halibut, cod, and rockfish the past few years as well...
Left my clothes bag sitting on my bed a few years ago. Was hunting for a week in borrowed clothing at camp. Couldn't believe, especially since I double checked to make sure my boots were in the cab before I left the house.
My 5 would be:
1. WY Antelope
2. WY Elk
3. CO Deer
4. MT Antelope
5. WY Deer

Drew my first MT Antelope tag. Built a couple points up and was successful on the first try. I hope Montana continues to be good to me this year. 1 deer tag and 1 antelope tag, just need to hit the hills and enjoy the animals.

I flew to Bozeman a couple weeks ago and went to Stone Glacier HQ and Mystery Ranch HQ. Mystery Ranch sent me to Schnee's in Downtown Bozeman because they are revamping their showroom. I tried on both companies packs and I will be going with a Stone Glacier Xcurve frame. It was the most...
Recheck your torque on your rings. Vortex scopes are very sensitive to being torqued over specs when adjusting for elevation. I had the same issues a few years ago on my wifes' rifle and it was fixed by retorquing to correct specs.
