    Hiking options

    Hey everyone. One of my adult sons can take a week off in the first half of April and he has asked me to go hiking with him (which I love). Together we have hiked various parts of the Appalachian trail (never the entirety). Anyway, both of us are in shape and have everything needed for up to a...

    Lets unite!

    Its that time of the year again and I hate daylight savings time! Can we please reach across the aisle and end this time change debacle once and for all? Fixing this issue is the lowest of hanging fruit! I think daylight savings time was specifically invented to save turkeys lives. Who wants to...

    Who is the oldest here?

    Ok, I joined in August 2009 trying to find some ideas for a western hunt. I am not the most prolific poster but I enjoy the forum and have learned a lot. I certainly miss Josecuevo and many others that have disappeared. Anyway, how long have you been here?

    Swarovski Service

    We all see companies bashed over customer service from time to time. I just wanted to give props to Swarovski from my personal experience. I have 10x42 El's that have been fantastic thru the years. On an elk hunt this fall I look down and an eye cup is gone (maybe 10 years in). The binoculars...

    .260 to 7mm-08 ?

    Ok, I have a Remington 700 ADL chambered in .260. It has the cheap synthetic stock, not bedded. Trigger is out course factory heavy (this rifle is circa 1999). It will certainly kill deer however it has the distinction of being the least accurate rifle I own. I would describe it as approximately...

    Blackhorn 209 weight

    So I have never been a reloader and shot whitehots, pyrodex, and others over the years while blackpowder hunting with shots being 100 yards or closer. This year I bought a CVA Paramount with the thought I could be comfortable out to 200yds. So I go down the rabbit hole and purchased a scale so I...

    Fox or coyote?

    As an east coast guy located near the beaches in Maryland I did not grow up with coyotes. There has been the occasional one in the last few years on social media. I have a new farm this year and see this guy. Help me here, fox or coyote?

    Is harder better?

    I saw heading on the article in Outdoor Life about a "harder hunt being a better hunt". It is unusual to me the way hunters always seem to think a harder hunt is a better hunt. By harder I mean bow vs muzzleloader vs rifle etc and long pack outs vs drop them near a road. I admit I fish in the...

    I can't draw flies

    Wow, for a guy with 10-13 pts all over the west Lady Luck sure did nothing for me this year. I guess I way over played my application strategy hand and even turned in a drawn tag in NV as I was so convinced better things were coming my way. Anyone else crash and burn with their draws this year?

    Cheek weld

    You know you are getting long in the tooth when you recognize that rifles are changing and are capable of shooting more accurately at longer distances. I am not looking for a debate on what distance you do or don’t think is ethical. My only comment is “shoot to your ability”. All that said, who...

    CO Moose

    I have received my annual rejections for Colorado Sheep and Mt Goat but the Moose isn't posted either way yet. Has anyone else received moose results in CO?

    Ass Clown

    Just watched a minute of the Pigman series and that one minute was enough to see someone shoot a jack rabbit with a .338 while on an elk hunt. Needless to say not much was left. How exactly is this going to attract new hunters and promote our sport :mad:

    12 x 50 Swarovski's?

    Has anyone compared the Swarovski 12 x 50 EL's to the 10 x 42 EL's ? I have had a pair of 10 x 42's for years and love them but at times I feel under powered. I would think the 50's would be better in lower light conditions. I have borrowed a pair of 15 x 56 Swarovski's but couldnt imagine...

    If I could drop a $1,000

    After seeing the thread about dropping a $1,000 (on tag applications) it has made me wonder. What is on your hunting bucket list if you had an extra $1,000?

    You always remember your first

    So my dad called and said he would like to give me his only gun as he doesnt hunt anymore and knows I would use it. It is a nice Belgium Browning that I have always wanted so I was certainly excited. I swing by his house and there are two guns waiting for me. The second one is a single shot 20...

    Life lessons

    Ok, after reading Cushmans post about his drunken phone call to the FBI it made me wonder what other bad ideas have the Huntalkers experienced? My personal story was in 2008 I was black powder hunting in Mississippi. The weather was absolutely horrible with heavy heavy rain. We called the hunt...
