I have an Inreach for sale. Never had any issues with him. Works well. Garmin changing their subscription plans really hurts me, but I think it could work well for someone still. There is some scratching on the face that you can see if you hold it at an angle with the light, but I had a screen...
My first hunt of 2024.
I drew a Texas muzzle loader hunt on a National Wildlife refuge. I have no idea what my odds were, but I had 5 points, I think. I'm leaving shortly to begin the 13.5hr drive. I'll get somewhere on the other side of ATL tonight before stopping to sleep. My hunt starts on...
I am in the process of planning a really serious backpack mtn hunt for next fall. Probably the most serious/demanding hunt I've ever attempted. I'm anticipating being on the mountain for 20ish days (possibly solo) living out of my pack. I usually just carry like 3 or 4 portable power banks, but...
As hard as I hunt across the west, I hunt every bit as hard in South Carolina. I go deer hunting about 3 days a week from Aug 15 - Sep 15. Then about 6 times a week for 3 months unless I’m out of town. I shoot deer for family, coworkers, friends and friends of friends. I hunt some private and a...
Well the title says it all. This is going to be a long one. I’ll update it the best I can as I have signal based on the unit I’m going to be hunting at the time.
Four tags. Four states. 25 days.… Give or take a couple. I drew my first choice New Mexico deer tag. Which is a first for me I’ve...
This year I decided it was time to cash in my elk points and try my hand in Wyoming chasing elk. I applied for a west general tag and WY gladly took my 5 points after the completely typical 5 month wait for the draw results. My friend Trent and I have been hunting together for 3-4 years...
I leave tomorrow morning about 1 AM to head to the airport CHS-ATL-SEA-FAI. My buddy and I are meeting up in ATL and heading north. Once we land in Fairbanks we’ll grab our truck and head to get some fuel for our stoves and a couple gas cans. Then it’s up to the haul rd. We have a couple weeks...
I bought a pair of B.2 11x45's a couple of years ago. I have been nothing but impressed with these binos. They are absolutely fantastic. I'm not sure if I'm super hard on gear or if I just hunt a lot and it gets a ton of use, but my stuff has to work. Garbage gear comes out of the pack and goes...
Have any of y'all ever sold a gun on gunbroker? I've bought a good bit, but never sold. If you have sold on gunbroker could you send me a PM so I could ask you some questions. I have a custom pistol I built that I want to sell.
TIA
I was recently able to head out to Kansas and hunt some geese with the gang from Veil camo. We had a great time hanging out for 4 days. We shot all different species of geese, but the hunting highlight of the trip for me was finally being able to get my first speck. I’ve wanted one of these...
I’ve wanted to hunt these birds for a while and this year I drew a tag up in NC. I hooked up my mini camper and made the 6hr drive up to Elizabeth City, NC in the NE corner of the state. I spent the night in the Walmart parking lot going to sleep to the sounds of swans calling overheard...
A Coues deer has been on my list for a while. They seemed like such cool little deer that lived in unique country. I’ve been applying for Coues in NM with my first 2 choices for a few years now, but I’ve been unsuccessful. While applying in NM I was building points in AZ with the plan of burning...
I hunt a lot. I know that most people on here know that, but I hunt a ton at home. I get off work at 3:30 so I often go straight to the woods to chase whitetails. I then hunt on Saturdays and often Sunday afternoons after church with my wife. Deer season in the low country of SC opens Aug. 15 on...
Im looking at switching ammo bc I think Federal Premium has stopped loading the 180gr AB. I've been looking at the 200gr Terminal Ascent for a few years and most of what I have read/seen about them has been good. Can any folks give me a real world in the field review of how they perform on...
Back in late September I was lucky enough to snag a third season returned mule deer tag. This unit was a place I had never been before, but I had looked at it and it had peaked my interest. It’s not a high point unit but it had some of the qualifications that I thought would make it good for...
I have a question for some of you with more local knowledge or on the ground experience from this year. My buddy, Greg and I have been planning an early season deer hunt in W/NW Wyoming for 3 years. We are planning on going to CO for deer first then driving straight to WY afterwards for back to...
Back in June I was working a long weekend when I received a message on my phone informing me that I’d drawn a Maine bull moose permit. I’m pretty sure I audibly whispered “No way”. It was a cool moment but this dream started a long time before that. My mom is from Northern Maine. She and my dad...
Ever since the draw results across the west completed I have been looking for hunts to fill in my calendar. I only drew 2 tags, so CO was one of the states I watched like a hawk. My September was wide open. I really really wanted an early deer tag but I couldn’t ever seem to get one in my cart...
SC has an early rifle season on private land in the lower 1/2 of the state. After seeing some deer and smaller bucks hunting this week I was able to knock one down last night. He just shed his velvet in the last couple days and the broken side was still holding on to some. Last year the...
