Trip to Des Moines Iowa, looking for fishing ideas
I have an upcoming work trip to Des Moines, I will be in town for three weeks. My weekends will be free and I immediately thought of opportunities I might be able to capitalize on as I've never really been to Iowa aside from driving through. I see that Saylorville Lake will be right in my back...- MThunter398

Montana bison hunt
I had the great fortune to draw the MT bison 385-20 tag this year. Our group is heading down to Gardiner in early January. It appears that the unit is 99% public, and from my research Beattie Gulch seems to be a hot spot to say the least. If anyone has any experience, advice, or even local...- MThunter398

New Hunting Rig
When I broke the news to my Dad that I was moving to Montana full time (not just for work) I also told him I was looking to buy a pickup. My first car had served me well in Wisconsin, having access to side by sides and other pickups for my hunting needs. But I knew MT would be a totally...- MThunter398

Conditioning or Sick in the head - Sheep
I got off work a few hours early this afternoon and decided to go for a hike and actually earn my beer for once. So I ran home and grabbed a newer pair of boots that I'm still breaking in. For the last month, I had been wanting to hike up into some sheep wintering grounds and look for a deadhead...- MThunter398

150 grain Hornady GMX for 7mm-08
I just worked up a great shooting load for my 7mm-08 with some 150-grain GMXs. They are going 2790 fps, which gets me to 2100 fps and 1500 ftlb at 400 yards. I am hoping to use this load for deer and elk this fall to replace the 162-grain eldx. I had been using the eldx for two years and I am...- MThunter398
