    Have you ever seen a wolverine in the Lower 48?

    Lost Rifle: Heppner, Oregon

    I know a few people who have been up there since 1st season (still are), I sent your post to them to see if they have heard anything. That’s a very high traffic corner were the gun was left. If you’re buddy hasn’t already done it make sure he contacts the morrow county sheriff.

    Boot trees?

    I might try that on a pair of boots that are getting a little tight. I am very diligent about cleaning my boots and not putting them in front of heat sources but after 4 years I accidentally left my boots in my 5th wheel across from one of the heater vents. even though they were about 4 feet...

    Boot trees?

    Anyone use cedar boot trees in their hunting boots to keep them from shrinking? What about boot stretching devices when the toe box has already shrunk?

    European Mount

    I’ve done a couple elk, a couple mule deer and a mt lion myself. It’s definitely not something I enjoy doing but I can’t convince myself to pay someone else to do a job I can do. Plus I can have it done in one day vs waiting for a taxidermist to do it.

    Maybe the lowest priced option to benchmade altitude

    Did the gutless method on a 5pt bull this year with the ridge belt knife. after receiving the knife (2nd batch) the only work I did with the blade was run it across a ceramic rod and a leather strop. I was able to complete the process of breaking down the bull with only cleaning the blood and...

    Taking a knife to Canada?

    Because I have a much higher chance of getting searched while pulling my RV across the border, it’s a much easier conversation to be up front and honest vs telling them no and getting searched and having to try to explain to them why I lied.

    Taking a knife to Canada?

    I crossed into BC at Blaine/Surrey while pulling my RV and the agent ask if I had any weapons, I told him I had my pocket knife. He didn't want to see it and didn't seem to care I had it, but he did ask me if I had firearms at home and wanted to know what type (pistols vs rifle's) it shocked me...

    Oregon Draw

    We drew as expected, my son and I got archery deer and elk tags and my daughter drew a rifle buck tag and a rifle spike elk tag. With the new regulations on East side Oregon archery being draw hunts it is getting more difficult to bank points and still draw tags. It's not impossible but you...

    Retiring my Savage M99 .243 .... whats next?

    I went through a similar shopping process, I bought an X bolt western hunter 6.5 prc. Take a look at M Carbo and get there $15 trigger sear spring, it makes a big difference in the trigger. Also take a look at redhawk rifles demo riflescopes. I bought a 4-16 ziess at a large discount.

    Late season Mt Emily

    I hunted it 3 years ago for archery elk, had a archery deer tag too. Hunted 18 days and only saw a few bucks. I shot a small 3 pt which was the best buck I saw. My buddy runs quite a few trail cameras up there and he has a couple good bucks on cameras but again very few.

    Late season Mt Emily

    The overall deer herd in mt emily is severely low. You will run into a couple issues with the late rut hunt in that unit. 1st will be access if the snow starts flying. If you have a capable vehicle, chains, winch, and maybe a four wheeler or side by side you will be ok. 2nd is finding a decent...

    Backcountry Caches

    I found a couple of pictures for reference, you can see that with snow on the ground the water bottle is not frozen, also note the DampRid canister on top to collect moisture.
