    Probably not a full episode, but a question on travel

    From the looks of things, Big Fin usually drives to all of his hunts, save for the Alaskan hunts. What do those trips look like - when you're covering 1000+ miles, are you breaking the trip up and stopping over somewhere or are you rotating drivers and trying to catch some sleep when it's your...

    Muzzleloader Scope

    I was between those and the Bushnells on the low end of the spectrum. Honestly haven't heard a bad thing about then yet.

    Muzzleloader Scope

    Yeah, I'm probably only going to get to use it a handful of times a year. Thing is, depending on how things work out I might go with the smoke pole over my slug gun during our general firearms season, so it might get more use than I'm initially planning... Glad to hear the Bushnell has worked...

    Muzzleloader Scope

    So I just picked up a muzzleloader (CVA Optima V2) and was looking at scopes. The motley assortment of scopes I have currently "maxes out" in niceness with a Vortex Diamondback. I'm looking at a Bushnell Banner, which is obviously super economical, but was also looking at the Leupold VX-Freedom...

    Antelope...Lets See Them!!!

    I went on my first Western hunt this year on a Wyoming Area 57 doe tag. Thought I might have two days to get it done but in retrospect it was a really good thing I got it done on the first day. I'd just about given up after half a day of walking, putting on miles, and seeing nothing but bucks...

    WY lope tags, who got em?

    I drew a doe tag in Unit 57. Gonna be my first Western hunt and I'm not gonna have a ton of time to make it happen - only have a few days after a buddy's wedding down in Boulder. Ton of logistics to work out, getting the meat home being at the forefront of my mind, but I'm super excited to get...

    Groups moving?

    Let me start by saying I know pretty much nothing about bows, how to set them up, and how to tune them. I shoot a Bear Attitude I picked up from Bass Pro a couple years ago and shoot 30-40 arrows about once a week into hay bale and foam targets. My problem is that it seems like almost every...

    Reality Check Needed - WY

    Thanks so much for all of this information - I'm feeling a lot more confident in being able to make this happen which has me way more excited about this trip than I was before.

    Reality Check Needed - WY

    Leaning towards trying to make it a 2 day commitment after all the advice I've gotten so far. I hadn't thought of using a game processor, but I'll make some calls to see what it'd cost to get the meat done by a processor and sent home.

    That's all I'm even hoping for ;)

    Reality Check Needed - WY

    Why doe/fawn? More than anything, cost. If I can scratch together the additional $200, I'd think about a buck tag, but I'm trying to shoestring this thing as much as I can right now. If I end up in 38 I'll be sure to PM you. I was slightly nervous about that unit because it says there's limited...

    Reality Check Needed - WY

    I was going to hold off on a final decision on where to apply until closer to the deadline - do you know if the number of tags is usually finalized before then? I know everything right now is still provisional, but wasn't sure when things firmed up...

    Type 6 tags are exactly what I'm looking at :)

    Reality Check Needed - WY

    Great information - thank you! I figure a 2/3 day commitment would make everything a lot easier (travel to/from, weather days, etc.), just not totally sure I'll be able to get the time away from work/family. If I can, I'd definitely prefer to spend more time rather than less.

    Reality Check Needed - WY

    Yep, I'm good once I get home assuming all I have is boned-out meat. If I were to draw a buck tag, coming back with a head gets a little more difficult, so between that and the cost that's why I'm planning on a doe tag. Thanks for the reminder though!

    Reality Check Needed - WY

    Hey All, I just found out that I'm going to be a groomsman in a wedding this year in Boulder, CO (I live in Maryland). I've never hunted out West and wasn't planning on a trip for at least a few years due to money/family hurdles that would need to be cleared. That said, now that I know that I'm...

    Flatlander

    I forgot to do this (more like didn't read) when I signed up for the forum this past winter. I live in Maryland and arrived on these forums via Randy's TV shows and podcast. Randy posting those episodes on Youtube was a gift from above as I was staying home on paternity leave for most of January...

    Asking a favor

    No worries there - I can't get Randy's show any other way and I hate being a freeloader. This way I feel like I'm contributing something to the cause. We all win :)

    Asking a favor

    I subscribed a while back - that's how I ended up finding this forum - and I've had a question nagging at me. Do you get anything from us watching the commercials that appear before/during/after an episode? I figured it has to benefit you somehow (watching vs. "skip ad"), so I always let the...
