Vortex Razor HD 20-60x85mm angled spotter, original body, and an Alps padded spotter sleeve, let me know. Only been out in the field maybe 6 times.
Asking $1000.
Just a couple photos from our annual trip back home to see family, celebrate our 1st Anniversary, and hang out in the treestands for a week. I went back early and had about 1/2 dozen sits in before my wife flew in. I shot my buck on a Monday afternoon at about 3pm, and she shot hers from the...
We do one dehydrated meal/day/person. My wife makes them. Taco soup, chili, turkey or meat & veggies, goulash, egg scramble, etc. If we happen to be camping near water, we'll take a few breakfasts that are dehydrated fruit, oatmeal, granola, powdered milk, and berry flavored meal replacement...
Had a great year! My wife and I managed to put 7 birds in the freezer all from public land, and reintroduce her friend to hunting. I love our turkey opportunity in Montana if you are willing to drive to different regions!
Quick blurb for each photo in order:
1. Wifes opening day, snow storm...
Hey all! It's been a long while since I have posted on here unfortunately. But, I'm here now, and here's a quick run down of my first ever elk.
After several backpacking trips into a few different locations over the month of Sept, and 2 close calls with a 330" and a 350" that wind swirls...
Check out the NAP Spitfire XXX's. 3 blades and 2" diameter. I have shot several birds with these over the last couple of years and haven't had one go more than 15yds.
I would second most of what is already said. The deer hunting is ok at best if you draw a tag. I do some single day elk hunts locally but with very little luck. If we have 2 days or more, we drive 3-4 hours to better spots with less pressure. The beer is good, just a few local restaurants...
Thanks everyone for the info. It'll be a chore keeping a Lab off her feet.... especially one with the "go" of a 2 year old. Visited with the Vet again today and they are not concerned about the wait, but will put me on a call list if other appointments cancel.
This will be an interesting meeting coming up in Helena it would seem. Only being eligible to hunt the last two years, and focusing on elk more than anything, I won't have much input. Unfortunately it sounds as if these meetings are similar to what I experienced in KS while working for the Dept...
I'd like to see the extended opportunity for youth, and sacrifice days out of our General season.
I would also like to see a youth Turkey weekend the week before the spring opener as well....
Having a little too much energy and fun in the snow last week, my 8 year old Black Lab tore here CCL in her back leg (similar to ACL in us). It would appear our best option is the TPLO surgery, but the vet can't get her in for another month. Anyone else have any experience with this they would...
Congrats bud! Heck of a year for sure! Give me shout when you guys plan on pulling fence and what not next year. Would have came up last summer, but we were doing the same thing in the Paradise Valley. Great pics!
I lost 35lbs over the first year we moved to Helena. When you are a flatlander, you don't have much of a choice here :)
Over the next year I worked on endurance and a little strength. I'm currently spending this year working on strength, while not putting the weight back on. I mix in a lot of...
Started making notes the other day with application dates. Other than WY Pronghorn, this is the first year I've started actually thinking about a draw "strategy" and putting in for other states. I'm only focusing on the same WY Pronghorn unit as last year, and MT elk as I have some friends...
