    New GSP

    Our beloved GSP, Gunner, passed away at the beginning of the year. He was the best dog I ever knew, and I sobbed like a little child when he passed. I contacted the same breeder we got him from and she said she would keep me in mind if something came up. She cautioned me that all of her current...

    CA Bear!

    I finally did it. After years of trying to get one of these guys, it finally happened. It should be a while to hear back from fish and game with regards to his age, but the biologist said it's one of the better bears he has seen in this area for some time. My cousin is a bear guide in Alaska...

    First Archery Buck (Click for good news!!)

    This forum is in need of some good news, so I figured I'd share a quick story of my latest Mule Deer hunt. Over the last couple of years I have transitioned from relatively new hunter, to that of a mentor to a couple of local friends dabbling with the sport. I have walked them through basic gear...

    Spring Bonus

    What are you going to do with your spring bonus once you find out you'll never draw those tags? NM just gave me my money back... and like an idiot I am giving it to UT

    Looking for some pup advice

    Well... my daughter is almost 5 years old and her energy levels currently outpace that of our 11 year old German Shorthaired Pointer. He has certainly earned his lazy retirement years. Gunner has been the best dog I have ever had, but I know we will have to face that unfortunate day soon enough...

    Do we have enough hunting influencers yet?

    It's been a long wet winter. I am bored... a bit grumpy and hungry... But my goodness there is a ton of hunting influencers and content creators, right?

    Looking for a family salmon fishing trip

    My wife and I are looking to fill the freezer with some fish. We have been fortunate enough to raise our little girl on deer and elk that I have killed, but we still have to buy chicken and fish from the store. Our ultimate goal is to eat only meat that we have taken. The next practical step is...

    Does it get any better???

    After spending 2 weeks chasing elk in Wyoming with my Dad, I'm home. That doesn't mean hunting is over. I have been fortunate enough to take my 4 year old out the last couple of days chasing deer. I didn't draw a gun tag this year, so the trusty bow/walking staff gets to log some more miles on...

    Wyoming Elk with my Old Man

    What a roller coaster this year has been. I was able to draw a Wyoming General Elk tag and had spent the spring months planning the hunt with my cousin - a very experienced hunter. The excitement quickly turned to concern when we recently learned that his wife has cancer and he will no longer be...

    Blood and Thunder

    I was working on a fire in New in New Mexico a few months back, and saw some history in the area that sparked my interest. I found the book Blood and Thunder, and figured I would give it a read. It was a great book and well worth checking it out. It provides a really cool glimpse into the life...

    Finally got it!

    I finally got my 2020 buck back from the taxidermist! This is the first animal I have spent the money to have a shoulder mount done. It was so exciting to see him again. I wasn't sure it would be worth the money, but I am happy I did it. This buck was harvested in Southern California, in a unit...

    Looking for book recommendations

    I’m looking for some recommendations on rifle shooting books. Something that covers selection, care/maintenance, and dialing in hunting rifles. I’ve always been a surface level marksman, so I’m looking to step up my game and knowledge. I’d like to get to the point of reloading my own stuff, but...

    Black bear question

    There are a few bear threads going right now, but I didn’t want to derail the authors thread. I have a question about black bear behavior, specifically in Colorado (if that makes a difference?) Are attacks very common? Can black bears be very aggressive towards people in areas where they are...

    New Truck

    I picked up my new hunting/camping rig yesterday! I’m pretty dang excited to use it this season. I ordered it 3/2 and it arrived at the dealership 8/22. Crazy times, but we are blessed! Any other Ford Tremor owners out there??
