    The story of Limpy and this first time dad.

    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...

    Flat tops

    Hi Hunttalkers, I'm considering doing an elk drop camp this year in Colorado's Flat Tops. It will be during the muzzleloader season and we thinking about going with Fritzlan & Family Guide & Outfitter Services. Does anyone have experience with them? Would you hunt with them again? They have...

    One more week until Oryx

    I'm one week out from my OIL Oryx tag at WSMR. I can feel the excitement already. I'll be packing this weekend and getting in some last minute long range rifle practice in. I've got my taxidermist lined up and found a butcher that will cut and wrap overnight so we can fly all our meat home...

    What to do with 8 Wyoming elk points?

    Hi Hunttalkers, I'm interested in burning my Wyoming elk points and I'm considering 4-5 different units. I started to save points 8 years ago when the unit I've been applying for only took 5 points to draw...now it takes 11 and it seems I'm not really catching up. I have hunted that unit 3...

    1980's Winchester 70 question

    Let me preface this post with the fact I've never been a great rifle shooter and I'm looking for y'all for some insights. I have had a 1980's era Winchester model 70 in 30.06 for many years and it has served me well. I have taken many deer and a few elk with it. It was my first big game rifle...

    WTB Large Rifle Primers

    HI HuntTalkers, Kind of a longshot but does anyone remotely close to Sacramento, California have any large rifle primers they would be willing to sell me? I only need about 100 to load up some .308. I'm willing to drive for them up to an hour or two. Thank you, Joe

    Old Barn Improvements

    Hi Hunt Talkers, I just returned home to California from my farm in Indiana. This trip was all about fixing a brewing problem and I'm glad I got that monkey off my back. I purchased the farm from a family member 2 years ago that has severely neglected basic maintenance on the 100 year old...

    Indiana Deer Season

    For all 2020's problems, deer season at my Indiana Farm was not one of them. Even though I mostly hunt in the west I always make the trip back to Indiana every year to archery hunt whitetails. This was my 32nd year hunting the family farm. 3 of us left California on 11/7 and came home heavy...

    CC Hit for AZ Javelina Tag

    Hey HTers, Looks like I'll be going on a archery javelina hunt this January. AZ Game and Fish hit my card for $100 today. I'll get the OTC deer tag as well. I figured I might as well go for a quick trip in January since I already have the license. I'll be targeting the SE part of the state...

    AZ Archery Elk Hunt Report 2020

    Let me start by saying this was one of my favorite hunts I have been on that did not result in meat in my freezer and I'm still not sure how I didn't come home with a bull. As a first time archery elk hunter, I learned a ton about hunting elk during the rut. I also did this hunt solo which is...

    Hi HTers, I've been hitting the woods since the season opened on Saturday 8/15, and thought I would start a thread on it in hopes of finally getting a CA archery buck. This season I scored permission on a managed wetland in the Sacramento Valley and it has a lot of deer. I have yet to see any...

    Range finding Binos vs handhead rangefinder for archery?

    HI HTers, I'm considering purchasing a pair of rangefinding binocular, probably Vortex Fury due to price mostly. While I do use my rangefinder for both rifle hunting and archery, archery sees a lot more rangefinder use for obvious reasons. Seems like most archery hunters use a separate...
