    Tactacam Film Through Scope (FTS)

    Anyone tried these? What are your thoughts? Thinking about getting one to attach to a .300 Win Mag rifle w/ VX-5HD 3-15x44, a .30-06 w/ VX-3i 3-9x50 w/ 30mm tube, and also get the Tactacam attachment for my crossbow.

    Antelope...Lets See Them!!!

    Some amazing pics in here! Just finished scanning through them after @3855WIN pointed me here (Thank you!!). I have a much better appreciation for antelope now! I pray I get one on my first antelope hunt in October so I get to eat one/share it with family/friends and end up with it on my wall!!!

    Thanks for the response! I apologize for the typo... I know you'd have to charge more for the shirt and I would pay extra myself (I paid more for the shirt below). What about something like this where the letters sit on top rather than an ink transfer? Not trying to second guess you, but...

    Hard to Get NW CO Tag - What to Look for in a Pronghorn?

    Great point! I've already told them my top priority is elk, followed by a muley, and the pronghorn is a bonus. This hunt is cheaper than the elk/mule deer combo I looked at in UT and comes w/ the pronghorn.

    Hard to Get NW CO Tag - What to Look for in a Pronghorn?

    I am going through an outfitter in NW CO and am getting a landowner tag normally taking 15+ years to get out of the deal. I've watched all the Randy videos on pronghorn, but what should I be looking for to make sure I'm taking an animal worthy of the tag? I'm not nearly as educated on antelope...

    Fort Carson Outdoor Recreation is Set to Re-Open

    Can a member from out of state rent a camper from Fort Carson w/o having to go through a course there? Was thinking about dropping by there on the way from IL rather than dragging it all the way from my base.

    I apologize, but I missed this the first time around. I really learned a lot from UEH, so much so I have paid for an annual subscription more than once... ;)

    Appreciate the long, thought out response!! I do a ton of research myself. I’m an engineer professionally and it’s ingrained... ;). You should see the OneNote Notebook I have of hunting research/articles!!! I like your idea about documenting lessons learned. I know @Big Fin talks about how...

    That’s great! Thank you for your service!! I’m part of a military family, but my wife wears the uniform (AF O-6). My uniform for USTRANSCOM is a suit when I’m not teleworking... ;)

    Educating Adult Onset Hunter

    You have a point about what they eat for sure! I know when I read through the Elk & Elk Ecology book @Big Fin recommends and jotted down their foods, I didn’t know what 90%+ of what those plants/bushes are, let alone how to distinguish Blue wildrye from Millet woodrush...

    Good point. I know Randy hammers this home in his videos, but it’ll be good to ask the guide the questions related to the critters’ needs.

    Try sitting in a deer stand or ground blind all day long for whitetail....

    Valid points! I’m asking for a guide who has been around a while and has a lot of good knowledge to pass along.

    It’s a mix of both, but I guess a lot of the public is land locked.
