The nice thing about Fritzland is he does not have many fully guided hunts and prefers to do drop camps over fully guided hunts. The drop camps are 90% of his clients, therefore he does not save the best spots for guided hunts. If fact when we were there in the middle of the elk rut he had no...
Just realized I never closed the loop on this thread. I did manage to get a bull on this hunt and we were in elk nearly every day. We didn't see any huge bulls, but lots of legal ones. I would recommend Fritzland for drop camp services. The hunt was as described and I would do it again. We...
Unfortunately, not many different ones I was alone so getting the pictures on the timer with my phone on the backpack. I should get him back from the taxidermist in a few months will follow-up.
I hope baseball makes the list for 2028. I enjoyed the last World Baseball Classic. International play was cool and leaning about the players from other countries was fun. I'm not sure the MLB is interested, but I'd take Olympic play over the Allstar game every 4 years...
Yeah, the jury is still out on if this is a snake bite or a different critter. The holes were about 2 inches apart, but we figured it swelled so much they were pulled apart...but really unclear. Other than the limp and bump on leg he was in good body condition lots of fat and still keeping up...
I've been hunting California's A-zone for the last few weeks with archery and have been seeing some really nice bucks in a little spot not far from the house we secured permission on a few years ago. We call it the dads’ spot, because it’s so close to town dads can slip away for a quick 2-3 hour...
I have had good luck putting away short-term dollars into Acorns. Acorns is an app that invests in ETFs. I stash funds in there mostly for hunts and home improvement projects, but don't tell my wife about the hunts part.
Public lands turkey hunting is difficult especially in areas of good turkey habitat...typically treed. Additionally, everyone is dressed in camo head to toe. I'm from Northern California and there are people all over the woods so having someone mess up my hunt here is common. I don't know how...
I burnt my elk points on EE033O1M. Muzzleloader hunt in the Flat Tops. I'll be doing a drop camp this time with 3 other friends. Looking forward to the experience. It will be the first time on a horse since I was a kid. Looking forward to a new experience and seeing some new country. I...
At the world famous Paul Bocuse restaurant in Lyon France they have been cooking a whole sea bass in pastry for many years, considered one of France's pillars of French Cooking. The restaurant is consistently ranked one of the top 50 in the world. Sadly, Paul Bocuse past away in 2018. A few...
With one more week of shotgun turkey season here in California I've reached my spring limit of 3 birds. It was an exciting season that included helping and calling in a bunch of birds for friends and some good eats.
