Hey Baxter,
I respect your opinion and I started a thread Titled:
HHA Tetra LT archery sight for Western bow hunting ?
I started the thread before I thought to ask your opinion so if you get a chance and have the time please post your opinion. It's listed on this Forum under (Big Game hunting...
Hi,
I've been eyeing a HHA bow site for a while to use locally and for Western ELK hunting. At first I was thinking to get the HHA optimizer Lt but it's come to my attention they have a new model (Tetra) that I feel would serve me better. I see the Tetra LT comes with a second Axis adjustment...
How many rounds to take on a hunt? - As a kid I remember reading about a great pioneer hunter. His father gave him one round and he was scolded if he didn't bring back game, and if he didn't there was often no meat on the table that day. I usually bring one 20 round box of shells. But I hope...
I didn't check to see if the #'s are correct above but I will assume they are. This is just WAG but I'm thinking there could be 2x more Non-Resident Elk hunters in Colorado than in Idaho. If so even with more public land in Colorado their could still be more hunters per square mile. Also...
This was my first time putting in for the MT draw. I had put in for the 900-20 units but no luck but did draw the Elk combo tag. I had bought a preference point but had no previous points. I also bought a bonus point but I know it didn't count toward this year but maybe next year it might help...
Yea, tons of used bows on Ebay. I bought a slightly used PSE Evoke for about half the cost of new. Seller happened to live about 50 miles from me so I didn't even have to pay shipping. Bow shoots great too. I found a nice used Carbon PSE evolve on ebay at less than half of new but I got too...
diamond hitch,
Thank you Sir. You are a wealth of great knowledge as to Elk hunting and whenever I see you have posted something I always read it. If you ever decide to write a book on Elk hunting please let me know as I would like to be the first in line to by it.
Wow,
I didn't see a lot to get all that stirred up about with Buggler's post but it sure took off like a rocket! It's kinda entertaining to sit back and read. I was just glad to see someone young come on here and express their mind and like someone Else said be digging for information on my...

"So enough about me here are the reasons that I personally believe are most detrimental to the hunting community.
(Lack of access to land/perceived lack of access to land.) While it is very true that the days of knocking on a door and asking a member of your community if you can hunt his...
Just got this Reminder from Eastman's in my Email today at 8:01 PM eastern time which I quote: "Reminder: Special Invitation Hello, Montana Elk & Deer deadline today!
I thought the deadline was April the 1st? Did someone at Eastman's push the alert button 5 days too late or am I wrong?
Non-resident deer and Elk tags are not included in the suspension.
Nonresident licenses, permits, and tags sales temporarily suspended by F&G Commission
Nonresidents who purchase a 2020 hunting license may still apply for controlled hunts that will occur this fall.
At their April 4...
I'm sure many Elk were taken with muzzleloaders between 1600-1900. It's said that muzzle loading rifles dominated the civil war even though there were some breech loading and repeating arms used. So for sure in those 300 years of early america there were likely a lot of Elk killed by muzzle...
Of the available choices, I would imagine the 06 would be the winner. But some have already stated more Elk were surely killed off before the 06 was invented. Of course the 06 was invented in 1906 but most of the Elk were gone by that time. The 30-40 Krag began to be used around 1892 so...
I just got a message that said the coronavirus has hit the one million mark worldwide. Sad day in history. Even sadder it's still spreading and like someone said that's only the reported cases and I'm sure there were likely more than a million not reported.
I feel very fortunate that I have always had insurance but sadly I know there are some who don't. The more proud ones also don't seek attention as soon as they should if at all and for sure have a higher death rate whatever the disease or health concern. Same with dental care. It wouldn't...
I figure many have already paid for their hunt so it won't likely affect them. The virus should have run it's course before fall but folks that have held off paying for their draw till the last minute might change their minds about entering if money is tight. I also know of someone that won't...
