Got what I wanted. I went light this year, a cow elk, doe antelope, and doe whitetail. I’ve been enjoying general elk and deer the last few years, so I’m happy to stick with that this year.- jtm307

Is less more?
How much do you practice with your shotgun? I confess, I literally only shoot when I'm hunting. The past couple seasons, I've had a 90%+ hit rate on birds, mostly upland. I got my first dusky grouse double last September. Three years ago I purchased an over/under after only ever using a...- jtm307

Someone Stop Me
$1 invested now and earning an average of 10% annually will be $10 in 25 years. 25 years from now, would you wish you had 10x the current price in cash, or the rifle? -

September Clothes
I've hunted birds in that region. If sitting in a deer stand in Michigan is your normal, you're more likely to be under-prepared for how hot and sweaty you could get, not for how cold it could get. That time of year, I'm wearing lightweight, flexible pants and a lightweight long sleeve shirt... -
Wyoming… I’m in a pickle
Here’s what I would do: Hunt OTC in CO in 2023, just on the other side of WY general areas. While you’re at it, do a little scouting in WY. Don’t put a ton of pressure on yourself to kill an elk. Explore. Bag some grouse. In 2024, hunt WY General solo no matter what. -
Rangefinder recommendations
You didn't mention what Kilo model you had. I bought a Kilo750 in 2016. It would range out to 500 on a good day. It was stolen and I replaced it with a Kilo1000. 930 is the farthest it has ranged. I'm very happy with it, given the low price. -

What are your Signature Dishes?
elk flat iron* with rosemary and garlic grouse pot pie pho with elk bone broth *I tend to hit elk in the scapula, so having a flat iron steak is much more of a treat than tenderloin or blackstrap.- jtm307

Bourbon Connoisseurs
In 2016, I bought a bottle of Old Weller Antique 107 for sub $25. I’d never heard of it. I liked the bottle and the price. If I could go back in time, I’d tell myself to buy every bottle in town. It’s still my favorite by a long shot.- jtm307

Why cant more politicians think more freely?
I could never support a politician who supports red flag laws, a complete circumvention of due process and a middle finger to civil liberties. “Take their guns now. Due process later.” - Donald J. Trump- jtm307

Cheyenne or Laramie for a trip layover??
Don’t waste your time in Cheyenne. I second the Library wings. Bond’s is a cool place for beer, too. I’m a big fan of Corona Villiage. I could eat Mexican food for every meal. I think Accomplice is enormously overrated, along with the Rib ‘N Chop.- jtm307

Examples of elk absorbing shots and not acting hit?
A perfectly hit elk usually doesn’t react immediately. It’s very easy to accidentally shoot multiple elk if one isn’t careful, especially in a large group of cows. https://kgab.com/chief-game-warden-admits-hunting-violation/ -
