    Just got a new Kowa 773 and want to digiscope/phoneskope with it. I'm not a huge fan of the clunky phoneskope and found a universal well made Smartscope Vario built in Austria for Kowa.

    First time sheep hunter with a TMA tag

    Hunt was good, no sheep. Definitely an experience different from any other hunt I’ve been on. We only saw 8 sheep total all rams well under legal the biggest we saw was maybe 7/8 curl, we did not see one Lamb/ewe in the 10 days we hunted and saw 0 sheep on the fly in. Weather was not great high...
