    New to NC and new to bear hunting, help appreciated.

    Running dogs is the most effective method to kill a bear in the mountains, and especially the coast. It's not cheap to join in with one of those groups of guys, and you better have your mountain running legs ready!!

    Cow or calf?

    If there was a big difference in the taste between the two, I'd say calf. But a cow ain't too bad at all! I'd say cow! Taste delicious and gets the freezer a lot closer to full!

    New to NC and new to bear hunting, help appreciated.

    Welcome to NC, and HT! With you being in the mountains and around Nantahala and close to Pisgah National Forest, you'll be in bear country. I've hunted them at the coast, but not the mountains, so I don't have any first hand knowledge of hunting them in that location. But I do know guys who...

    Solo backpack trip - what do you do to stay sane?

    Oddly, I take a pile of cut out newspaper crossword puzzles. They're extremely lightweight, and I love doing them. Keeps my mind going and it passes the time. I go crazy sitting in a tent for very long without keeping my mind occupied.

    What happened to the signers???

    First, Thanks Gunner for posting this. I never put any thought into this and how those guys would have to pay dearly! I also wish this was taught in school. Sadly, you can go around and randomly ask why are we celebrating July 4? It's getting to the point where no one knows, just a day off...

    How to approach elk hunting long term

    I went with the, "I'm going to give this a shot" plan without working out or with any good equipment, other than a bow, and tagged along with a veteran elk hunter. I did borrow alot from him. I did kill a good bull the second afternoon of a two week trip. When I got home from not being...

    Nevada Sheep tag unit 268

    Just look at it has adding character to the hunt! This may cause you to slow down and take the right shot to ensure she doesn't end up in a hard to get to spot. Which slowing down helps me savour the hunt. :) Looking at the photos, it looks like now all you have to do is find a really nice...

    They made the right choice indeed! Much more fun than standing in unthinkable crowds and lines!

    Getting in shape

    It's easier to keep in shape, than to get in shape. I run every morning 5-6 miles before work, 10+ miles (long run) on a weekend morning, with one morning off. It helps with keeping the lungs and legs strong, which is critical for someone who lives at 650' asl. I hike with my loaded hunted...

    North Carolina hunter going west!

    Welcome, neighbor! I grew up in NC and hunted the same critters as you, and still do. I can tell you, you won't be disappointed with heading west to chase antelope, or anything. You'll end up looking at NC hunting as something to get you by until you head back the next year! At least that's...

    Newbie from NC

    Welcome! Lived in NC all my life, Concord to be exact. There's a few of us on here. Be careful, hunting west of the big river is addictive! And there are little comparisons between western public land hunting and NC.

    Gallatin Mountain Goat Hunt

    But it's more fun that he didn't!:) Gerald- great carefully thought out response! I've got to remember some of the analogies use! Perfect! To the OP- I would take Greenhorns offer! A little pricey, but everything in hunting is a gamble!

    Hot new hunting pants!

    The question is, who Googled "hunting skirt", and why?:confused:. :) However, I had to look at the reviews, and evidently, there are at least 6 fellas wearing a dress outside, and pretty proud of it!

    Kentucky Elk Hunting (Just drew bull tag)

    Welcome to the site. You have a great opportunity due to being 2 hours away, especially since you have elk hunting experience and have ample time to drive over occasionally for the next couple months. I look forward to reading about the hunt afterwards. Good luck and congrats on a hard to get tag!
