    I drew a unit 36 mule deer tag. That's right in the middle of whitetail rut, but I'll take it!

    Deep Sea Fishing Trip

    A lot of good options here. Depends what you want to fish for. There are some killer deals in Mexico if you don't need a fancy boat. This was only a 5 hours trip, but it was $250. The marlin is not typical but it seems like they almost catch sailfish every trip. This same trip out of Florida...

    Anybody that’s been ever had trouble in Africa?

    We hunted I'm Limpopo South Africa awhile back. I don't think I'd want to drive around on my own, but the PH along with a driver picked us up and dropped us off at the airport and everything was fine. I didn't really understand what it was going to be like, and didn't really like the fences...

    Last truck question

    Shoulder or European?

    That's a hell of a bull. Do you have any elk shoulder mounts yet? If you don't I'd go with the shoulder mount. I'd like to have a nice mount one day.

    Big binos with most eye relief

    Hello, I am looking to buy some 15- 18x binos, but I also wear glasses most of the time. From what I've gathered, glasses wearers often have trouble with the field of view when the eye relief is 15 mm or less. I found some older threads on this exact issue, but was hoping maybe some...

    Beginner Glassing

    Thanks for everyone's responses. I'm going to begin the hunt for some 15 or 18x binos. The next issue I'm seeing is that eye relief could be an issue with my glasses, but I'm going to start a new thread on that. Thanks!

    Resources on how to shoot better...

    My buddy goes to Thunder Valley and really likes it. I'm a similar distance as you about an hour and a half and I plan on going a couple times this summer .

    Beginner Glassing

    Thanks for the input guys. Are 15s a sweet spot? I am seeing some binos that are 18x. Is that too big? Is too big a thing? I'm not a huge guy, so I normally try to keep a pretty light pack.
