Wow, my expectations too great to be realistic! When the main expectation is to see more than one bear during a 5 day hunt, with something being around a 5' bear. Competition from others will always be there, was just hoping to balance out pressure vs bear population. I appreciate your reply, I...
A few years ago I got the hankering for a bear. Hunted Montana spring of 2015, stumbled on and brought home a smallish red bear. Spring 2016 hunted Idaho east of Hailey, saw nothing but a young wolf. Spring 2017 hunted the southeast side of area 49. saw one small sow. I read area 39 has lots of...
Myself and my two brothers drew for the archery hunt in January. Pretty lucky as we usually miss out on the first draw being NR's and a party, and have to pick up tags on the 2nd draw.
At one time I had a web address for an outfit that would make miniature reproductions of your trophies, for desk display, or rear view mirror hangers etc. Basically you took High resolution photos of your mount from all different angles and sent to them, and they would reproduce it to a...
I can't say I'm any kind of a cook but I believe osso bucco is made from the shank which still has a bit of meat on it. those lower legs are only bone and tendon, I suppose if you like bone marrow. but like I said I'm no kind of cook. Don't take offence if I'm wrong.
I don't understand why I see soo many pictures of people packing out quarters with the lower leg still attached. Seems to me that's a lot of just bone, dead weight to pack for no reason. Font quarters are easy just cut through the knee joint, the hinds, a bit tricky to separate at the butchers...
The largest deer herd in Nevada resides in Area 10, Units 101-109. Access can be a problem in some areas somewhat landlocked by private. There are some trophy quality deer in there but to get to them you need to pack in away's. Plenty of small to average just about anywhere. Though I must say...
For a cow tag I wouldn't venture into the Wilderness area unless you want to say you "Hunted, and Experienced the Jarbidge Wilderness", Big, Deep, and Rough!! there's enough easier accessible country in that unit that hold elk.
Just finished my 2nd spot and stalk Idaho bear hunt. Only saw one bear (still learning the ropes) though I was assured by other bear hunters and the local rancher there are plenty of bears in the area. Though it's not a high density population. Is fall baiting a worthy option? I have family in...
It kinda go outa hand, what started as a simple rebarrel, turned into, change this, upgrade that. by the time I got through I was going to build a new gun from scratch. may as well just buy one and save the time and effort, and tool costs.
I've got a colt AR15 A2 in 223. Can't decide to buy a new gun in 5.56, or re-barrel the one I have. Anyone have input on barrels? Mostly for plinking\Self defense. doesn't need to be a long range tac driver. Good cost to quality ratio.
16", mid length, Light weight, 1:7, or 14.5 with pinned and...
I usually use a dry rub of your preference, or can buy it pre-seasoned. entirely coat it with Horseradish mustard. apply rock salt till evenly coated. roast to your preference. When it come out peel off the outer crust and "ENJOY".
I've been Javelina hunting AZ for the past several years. It's a balancing act of glassing and moving. From what you read they say they have a small home range, that may be but in my experience that home range moves around a several square mile area depending on time of year and conditions. They...
Just found out I drew for AZ Archery Javelina, I think I look forward to this hunt more than any other. It's just a fun hunt during the winter, beats January in NE Nevada. No real pressure to harvest, just a great time with my brother(s), good weather, different scenery, not strenuous even if...
