NM 6B Valles Caldera Early Archery Elk Hunt
You're on the right track. Though elk behavior will be much different in September, a scouting trip in summer to get a lay of the land is going to give you a major advantage. Practice shooting your bow daily and recognize your limitations. 40 yards or less on an elk is very doable and my...- KayakMacGyver

Wife's Muskox and Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep Mount
The 2021 draw season was pretty unbeleivable for my wife. She drew TWO once in many lifetime hunts and we are fortunate to have some incredible memories which will now be accented by pretty cool trophies. We recently got her mounts back and couldn't be more pleased with how they turned out...- KayakMacGyver

Meat Care on Extended or Multi-State Hunting Trips
What do you guys do with meat on extended and/or multi state hunting trips? Example…I’m hunting in state A and kill a bull on day 1. With 2 weeks of vacation time left, I’d love to head to another state and try for another elk or an archery antelope. This scenario has played out for me before...- KayakMacGyver

Credit Plunge
Yep, almost cost me the best rate on a refi during covid. I knew my score would take a hit, but didnt anticipate the insane interest rates that would allow us to refinance during that time. It worked out, but I learned a valuable lesson.- KayakMacGyver

2023 New Mexico Draw Results
Barbary for the wife and a sea of red for me. Have had to cancel WY Elk plans two years in a row due to NM happy surprises, so it looks like I'll get to see that through this year. Looking forward to a new experience chasing Barbary.- KayakMacGyver

turkey gun red dot
You're right. I just assumed tungsten deformed and steel doesn't. I did some edumucatin' and it seems the tungsten is actually harder. I don't want to derail the OP, but I'm now curious why they (in this case Sumtoy) put that warning out there yet expliy state TSS is ok.....- KayakMacGyver

turkey gun red dot
I'd caution folks reading that to proceed with caution shooting steel shot out of a tight Turkey choke. Many Turkey choke makers explicitly state that steel shot is NOT ok to shoot through their choke. Lead and TSS only....- KayakMacGyver

turkey gun red dot
It's definitely a close range tool. Popular on handguns. I like a tight choke that'll really let me reach out and poke a hung up bird. Turkey purists are probably cringing as they read that. My pattern is super tight at 20 or less yards and in my opinion brings the greatest value there...- KayakMacGyver

turkey gun red dot
I have both and prefer the vortex. The profile is a little slimmer and I like the cover better. Functionally, they both perform great. When it comes to a mount, check out sumtoy customs. They make a really slick base that's about as streamlined and light as it gets. No need for a picatinny...- KayakMacGyver

Nunivak Island Success
Beautiful ox and great job on the fox. My wife and I were there last year and hired Ed as well. He's a great guy. We tried hunting fox but the slaughter hadn't occurred yet and we didn't have any luck with the. You were very fortunate to have travel work out in your favor like that. Congrats!- KayakMacGyver
