How's the quality compare to the TV adaptation of Philipp Meyer's book 'The Son'? One of my favorite books of all time, thought the show was awful. Thoughts?
I sent a letter to our Montana AG and it seemed to be positively received. I am going to keep writing to all of our reps all year about this - and whatever else we need to!
Damn that is a huge Wolf! I have a buddy who has been trapping wolves in AK for ten years and has never caught anything bigger than 120lbs - which is a huge wolf. This is truly a giant animal.
And sorry to poopoo on my lower 48 friends - there are not wolves this big down here. I killed a 100lb...
These are DIY meat bars that copy a certain commercial snack. They are delicious, healthy, fairly easy to make, and require no refrigeration! Photos below.
Ingredients:
3lbs wild game burger (I used 50/50 venison and antelope this time around)
8oz uncured bacon - diced
1 cup dried cranberries -...
Just doing some casual Christmas morning reading here while I wait for my family to wake up.
I'm just a guy who doesn't work in gov't or the hunting industry in any capacity. How exactly can I make an impact resisting this bill (and general movement)?
I'm in Montana. Should I write my...
Second queso! saute onions and garlic first, then melt a ton of butter, then melt in cream cheese, then a bunch of tasty cheese with your chorizo. Broil at the end for a slightly burnt crust on top!
Dark Energy is excellent, I had a great season beating mine up in the mountains. In direct sun it will charge a power bank or phone very quickly.
Seconding another comment to avoid goal zero. Overpriced for less than top quality.
Finally got around to reading Horn of the Hunter by Ruark earlier this year before an Africa trip we did in August (just vaca no hunting). It is excellent and absolutely worth the read whether or not you ever go to Africa. Ruark is a hilarious author, and then just when you least expect it he...
Agree on whities displacing mulies from an anecdotal perspective where I hunt in western Montana. Maybe there’s data to suggest otherwise but we definitely notice it.
I’d also speculate that Montana’s mountain whitetail population is influenced by our proximity to Alberta and Sask and their...
Be careful passing bucks because they don't appear wide enough if you are particularly concerned with score (not judging either way). High-and-tights will score better than wide bucks all other things being equal. Tine length dominates score.
Shot a 160" in 2022. Haven't seen one bigger since then on public land during hunting season, would take at least that size for me to send another round.
Great post, thanks for the inspiration. I love this side of hunting, and it reminds me of Robert Ruark’s way of romanticizing a hunt.
Next year will be year 10 at a hunt camp for me and my best friends, same sort of thing. Same spot, same elk, we’ve seen the wolves, the people, the trees change...
Hey folks, have a buddy looking to drop a deer off with a taxidermist in the Salmon, Idaho area. The only one I knew of went out of business. Anyone in the area - give or take a couple hours of driving - currently working?
Thanks!
