    Lodging near Thayne, Wyoming

    I’ve mishandled some of my notes from a mulie hunt seven years ago and lost my contact info where I stayed in Thayne. If you’re traveling north on Rt 89 just as you come into town on the right side there was a fellow that had cabins for long term rent as well as RV spots. Looking at google maps...

    2019 ND badlands turkey

    That sure is a pretty bird and an all around pretty picture. Congratulations. Much better than this soggy old Eastern gobbler that my grandson got on youth day in Pa.

    Weighting a Stock / Reducing Recoil

    Not knowing what weight of bullet you are using but sometimes a lighter bullet helps with recoil. Not sure if it’s feasible in your case though.

    Upgrading Scale

    I’ve tried to access a photo of your scale but can’t find a blowup of it. Most scales have a leveling screw on the pointer side of the scale on the bottom. By putting the pan on the balance beam and zeroing all adjustments, if the pointer isn’t at zero you can turn the before mentioned screw...

    Weighting a Stock / Reducing Recoil

    I not certain if there is room to add weight under the barrel but a lot of stocks have recesses in this area that you could also add weight to. Lead shot or titanium rod if they fit your cost requirements. Before I mixed epoxy with lead shot and put in rear of stock, I would try just putting...

    Any have to turn a tag back in?

    I cracked some ribs playing baseball, young mans sport, at my grandson’s birthday bash one year when I had a Colrado elk tag. I could barely stand to have a backpack strapped around by chest, so I filled out the form for refund and sent my license back and they refunded my money. I believe that...

    Wow What’s happening here?

    I’ve been absent for only 8 weeks and HuntTalk has really changed. Not that I was an avid poster, more of a lurker. Even though I feel that I have a lot of experiences that others may find useful but by the time I’ve read the question or problem, someone else has already given my similar...

    Barrel Maker Suggestions

    McGowens have been used by a lot of people that I shoot with and they all are pleased with them. Definitely better than factory barrels they pulled off. By that I don’t mean shot out factory barrels but relatively new take offs that were shot only a couple hundred rounds. If I were to thread a...

    Scope / Turret running out of adjustment

    Check out a set of Burris posi align offset insert kits from Midway USA. They could very easy help with your problem. Used in conjunction with Burris rings.

    Randy and wolves on CBS 60 Minutes, and an interesting rebuttal.

    Propaganda as a definition is simply a form of communication usually in a biased manner to influence people’s opinions. The information is given in a manner to make people feel a certain way or feel a certain thing. I’m sorry if that is all I got out of it. Maybe CBS will do better the next...

    Randy and wolves on CBS 60 Minutes, and an interesting rebuttal.

    Thanks for the link. I’ll keep passing it on for others to view the old mans view. My wife said even before the CBS show was over that it was biased. She said the exact things that was in the old mans rebuttal as we watched the show. I just wish that all the viewers that saw 60Minutes could...

    10 year old deer hunting mentor season?

    Pennsylvania has had a youth mentor program for a number of years now. Grandsons and granddaughters have killed deer and turkey with gun and/or crossbows since they were 6 or 7 yrs. old. Can’t carry gun, the adult mentor handles gun until shooting time. I say it’s a good thing, enjoy it. I have...

    Thoughts on taking my 70 year old Dad Elk Hunting

    You should be talking to your Dad more to figure out what exactly he wants. If it’s just to be with you on a western hunting trip for elk in high country with lots of walking or? Lots of options but if you want to satisfy him, you need to listen to what he wants, not what you think he wants or...

    BDC or CDS system??

    While at the range just for chits and giggles aim with the lower thick to thin point of the duplex on the target with the scope set on 10power to see how high it shoots at 100. That is after you have zeroed at whatever distance you prefer. You have one built in hold over just figure out at what...
