    IMHO, the best cut of the elk is...

    Totally agree, I had the same experience with my shanks. Like the richest fattiest moistest pot roast you’ve ever had.

    WTB Nosler Accubond .338 225gr

    Hi all I’m in bad shape need some 225 grain white tip ABs in 338 for an upcoming ID trip. I don’t even need an entire box, 30 would be great, 35 would be spectacular. I’ll pay cash and shipping, or can trade 270 or 7mm bullets in several different makes and weights. Got these loads built...

    WTB Boys youth camo

    Looking for youth camo for 10 year old string bean son. I don’t know where the food goes, honestly we feed him. A lot. Getting geared up for first turkey season this spring. Not looking for freebies, prepared to pay fair value. Please let me know if you have anything that we might be...

    Waterfowl Hunters!

    I live in western WA and the 1 pintail limit is a little hard to understand here. Pintails are very easily one of the most numerous species we encounter in the field. Not quite as much as mallards, but probably about as often as widgeon, perhaps even more so some days. Unless the abundance of...

    2020 Solo Backcountry Idaho Elk Recap

    Appreciate everyone’s feedback, glad people enjoyed my recap. Had a few people remark on my Danner experience. Maybe I do have the best pair in the country, but I will take it! I will say I sized down a 1/2 size to accommodate for the roomier toe box on these boots, so they really fit my feet...

    Leaving elk quarters overnight

    I did the clothing scarecrow trick and piss all over, also hung a space blanket in the tree next to the meat. In any breeze, Space blankets are pretty loud, reflect moonlight, and smell pretty toxic to boot.

    Area with elk that wont bugle? 3 years-5 bugles

    I’d be very curious to know the general whereabouts of this area you hunt if you wanted to PM me? I’m in WA state, and your description sounds EXACTLY like the ridge I hunt with the sheep and camping and predators. I do my hunting from a tree stand and am also up there every September and have...

    2020 Solo Backcountry Idaho Elk Recap

    Hey Matt good to hear from you!! I’ll shoot you a PM. Still chuckling about your platoon you brought in to haul your bulls out. Hah, I was really doing my some soul searching about my current choice of friends after seeing a whole team show up within hours to help pack you out!! Where did I...

    2020 Solo Backcountry Idaho Elk Recap

    Some final notes on gear. My Mystery Ranch Pintler was great, would definitely make that purchase again, it packed like a mule. Loved having the Kifaru universal gun bearer, absolutely essential to be hands free. Little embarrassed to say it, but this was the first trip I have ever used hiking...
