I have a single axle 6' x 12' enclosed steel cargo trailer and we've used it on a couple of out of state hunting trips. It works great for keeping things dry and secure. A four wheeler fits through the rear cargo doors (width wise) after removing the windshield, but a side by side would be way...
I feel it has a lot to do with human scent at the trail camera or on the actual camera, the memory card and batteries. If you get the camera high enough off the ground, then wildlife is less likely to smell it or won't be able to get a good whiff at nose height.
I have a set up where one...
I've done it both ways (washed and unwashed) and couldn't tell the difference. I did spray a light citrus solution on the bags after putting meat in them to keep the flies off.
I set the picture MP level as high as the camera allows, but I don't use video. I buy the largest memory card the trail camera will accept and can't say I've ever filled up a 32 Gig memory card taking photos based on motion detection only. I've noticed using a "high speed" memory card over a...
Welcome from North Dakota! I grew up in Devils Lake, you'll enjoy the Walleye fishing there. Lake Sakakawea might be another worth while Walleye spot if you're passing through the west central part of the state.
I totally agree with Bambistew on the recoil...
I have two 375 H&H, both are blued with wood. One is a Sako L61R and the other is Remington 700 Custom Shop Heavy Barrel. The Remington is heavy 10+ pounds without bullets in it, the Sako is much lighter. Shooting these H&H's is similar to...
If video is what your after, than use a tripod. I say that because I've experienced a couple things using a monopod:
1. If you end up in a high wind situation, then it's difficult to keep the camera steady using a monopod.
2. If rifle hunting, sometimes the sound blast can cause the...
I wish they would add the snow accumulations since March 26th, we've seen more snow in the past two weeks and I assume SE Montana experienced the same...
I started buying our children points in WY, CO & AZ once they were eligible; it was super cheap back then or at least until they turned 18, then it got expensive overnight! I'm glad I did it and it's up to them if they want to continue it or not. By the time they finish college, they should be...
You might want to try contacting Reeds Family Outdoor Outfitters in Walker, MN. They are one of the biggest dealers in the area and seem to have just about everything.
Airlines and TSA are so hit/miss that I wouldn't dare offer advice on what will fly and here's an example of why:
I was traveling with my sister and mother as a three person group. My sister isn't a rule follower and ignored the "one quart bag of liquids rule" and brought three one gallon...
There were elk combos left over for quite a while, but the big game (elk & deer) were sold out and deer combos were gone within a day or two (if memory serves me).
Pages 31 & 32 of this 68 page hunting guide pretty much spells out what the SD archery hunting requirements are: https://gfp.sd.gov/UserDocs/nav/huntinghandbook.pdf
