    Bedding area

    As the other folks replied, yes they will. Benches are where I seem to find bedding areas a lot, and they will still use it even after a fire.

    Mtn Lion Ban Filed in Colorado

    I don't live in CO but I do hunt there occasionally. I sent in some money to the CRWM folks to help fight this. I absolutely hate ballot box biology and this kind of attack on hunting. I lived in CA for a long time. Only lion I have ever shot was on a depredation permit because it was...

    Any guessing on Wyoming general point level?

    I'm sitting out WY this year, so it will probably be way less than I currently have. Lol! And next year it will jump up back up beyond my point level. Be just my kind of luck.

    If I apply for an Oregon elk hunt and I’m not drawn, can I buy a general season elk tag???

    As said already, yes you can. I've done it a few times.

    Conceal carry

    I often have one in the truck, but rarely carry on my person. With how much crazier things are getting where I now live, I should start carrying more often. I used to live in a small mountain town where I wasn't too concerned. But now, in a much larger place, there seems to be several...

    The year of "cast and blast"

    It is all an ebb and flow for me. The last few years I have had fewer high country archery elk trips with my core group of hunting buddies and more family oriented trips with my dad, brother and wife. I want to get back out on a good september archery hunt with the boys this coming year...

    Wading boots for AK float

    On a 16 day float hunt a decade ago, we used rubber soled wading shoes. The same standard lightweight wading shoes I use for fishing. We didn't have any issued with them, especially since we weren't hiking too far off the river anyway. Usually less than a half mile from the river, mainly to...

    Choosing an 8x32 Rangefinding Bino

    I have a pair of Swaro El Range 10x42 and love them. Last weekend I had the opportunity to look through some of the other EL range binos. The 8x32's were great! I will be getting my dad a pair here soon. You will not be disappointed with them.

    Dry January

    Congrats. Keep up the good work. I am now almost 6 years in and wouldn't change it for the world. I needed the change because I couldn't even make it halfway through Dry January without falling off the wagon in a bad way.

    Sheep steaks are awesome

    I've been very pleased with the sheep meat from my DBHS. Some of the cuts are a little chewy, but the flavor is excellent! Cooked up some backstrap with sautéed onions and mushrooms last week. Everyone agreed it was excellent.

    Favorite Sheep Caliber

    I was surprised after my sheep hunt how thin skinned sheep are. Any rifle/bullet combo capable of taking down an antelope or deer would suffice. My 300WM was definitely overkill.
