    How often do you use your spotting scope

    During rifle deer hunts I use my spotter a lot to judge deer and make a decision on making a stock or not. During archery elk hunts I never pack my spotter so it just depends on your style of hunting and maybe what you are hunting.

    Ideal rifle weight - Long range backpack rifle

Robby hung one of his deer mounts on a corral, then we drove up on the hill to glass down. The bucks rack had some extras that...

    The Frontal Shot!

    I have taken the frontal shot on one bull at 13 yards with the bull expiring within 20 yards. Out of 9 elk with my bow I have only had one bull expire covering less distance. The key is to know your abilities, your equipment, and the anatomy of the animal you are hunting. Just like what has been...
