    Another Coues Buck

    The crew got this 2024 Coues deer hunt turned around in quick fashion. Those of you subscribing to FT+ already saw this two-part series. I used up all of my draw luck in 2023 for a late season Coues tag; first time I ever drew my first choice on a deer application. In 2024, it was back to my...

    Shooter lose millions of acres - where are the gun groups?

    In our 4th of 5 episodes in the idea of handing Federal lands to State Land Boards, we talk about the impact on recreational shooting. Rec shooters stand to lose more than most any other group, yet not a peep from the groups claiming to represent gun owners and shooters. They can't say they...

    My Funky Coues Buck

    This hunt was December, 2023. It's been out on Fresh Tracks+ for many months. Today, it hit YouTube. This is the first time in all my years of applying for deer in Arizona that I drew my first choice. I always make my first choice an unlikely possibility for whatever point total I have, using...

    This is another of our videos to try give more information about the effort to liquidate and privatize our Federal lands. This one explains State Land Boards, their history, how they operate, and why State Land Boards are the chosen conduit for the groups wanting to see your Federal lands...

    Wyoming Elk, Hay stacks, & Feedgrounds

    Marcus drew a Wyoming elk tag in 2023 that hit a lot of storylines we’ve had on the “story list” that drives what tags we apply for. It was the first year of this season, so we had no idea how it would turn out. Very few tags, targeting bulls that leave the feedgrounds and hammer haystacks...

    Conservation Easements Podcast Episode

    It's taken some time for me to get to this project, but it has been on my list for a couple years. Given many Montana elected officials have decided it's time to attack conservation easements in Montana, I made it a priority to get this one done. Thanks to Jennifer and Kendall for joining me...

    Origins of Big Fin's childhood book

    Many in my family have asked me to write a book. I like to write. I share stories with family members to hopefully make them laugh and remember how much fun we had, even though we didn't have any money. This is one of those. I think the statute of limitations has passed, so I am copying it here...

    2024 - More than we deserved

    2024 was one of our best seasons ever. Some years you work your butt off, and you think you deserved more. Some years, it just falls in your lap, and you almost feel guilty for how well it worked out relative to the effort expended. Such was 2024. A few have asked about our season. I was on the...

    Oh, the irony!

    As part of my morning coffee I usually spend 1-2 hours reading newsletters I subscribe to that keep me informed about public land and conservation issues. Being on the road most of the last three months, I have a lot of catching up to do. I subscribe to as many of the "opposition" emails as I...

    Podcast on Montana Mule Deer ideas

    This summer @Gerald Martin, @sclancy27, and @Eric Albus joined me for a Hunt Talk Radio podcast episode about their Montana mule deer proposal. We had hoped that @antlerradar could join us, but he was trying to save his property from wildfires at that time. Suffice to say, his fingerprints are...

A superb person, as are...
