    Now THIS happened to me...

    Wow! Glad you are Ok. I hunt a fair amount alone but while weighing the pros and potential cons it is getting harder and harder for me to justify. Obviously this is a very personal decision for each outdoors man, but for me stories such as this definitely give me pause and cause some thoughtful...

    More elk killed by mtn lions than wolves?

    I believe it. I think cat kills are less emotional for some for a couple reason. They seems to take care of their kills and kill sites better by removing the animals and often bury it. A pack of wolves rips the animal apart and leaves a ton of sign showing what happened. Also, Cats have been...

    Adam Greentree Invasive Species

    I haven't really made up my mind to change at this point. My initial thought was being ok with it, on further contemplation I started to question. Are feral cats safe to eat?

    Adam Greentree Invasive Species

    Ya I feel the edibility of the animals and the risk of disease to humans definitely plays a role. It's why I think a lot of people are hesitant to eat carnivores (heck even CWD deer). There is a risk of Trich and other diseases. Adam and his wife still ate a nights worth of the meat from the...

    First kid...one week to go!

    Congratulations! I have boy/girl twins and a thirds boy. Lots of work heading your way but it'll be worth it. Only recommendation is get your daughter on a sleep schedule that is in her room ASAP. We have an early bed time for our kids (7 pm) and it's so worth it. The twins are almost 4 and all...

    Adam Greentree Invasive Species

    I don't know who on here follows Adam Greentree. Recently he and his wife went on a multiple day hunt. During this hunt they killed 2 buffalo, a brush bull, a hog and several other animals. It is obviously impossible to take all this meat out with them. Upon obvious complaints from his followers...

    MuleyFreak in Trouble?

    Now that is Funny!!!! I'm guessing his own video evidence of himself on the Private Property Shooting a bull elk without permission was pretty damning. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times...Blame the Lawyers! LOL

    There’s a special spot in hell for poachers....they’re punishment, Pat Durkin sits down and tells them stories all day.

    I'm the opposite. I enjoy the mix up with the ME podcast. I like the live shows. So far I don't mind Cal's week in review. Interesting and quick so I can handle it. Have really struggled to get into The Hunting Collective. Nothing egregious, Just don't like his speaking style and story telling...

    Elk scouting

    Depends on what hunt you have. In utah our Archery hunt starts in Mid August. My strategy and scouting is completely different then if i'm hunting in September. If archery hunting august i'll start putting out cams and trying to pattern bulls now. They are not where they will be in September. If...

    Shunning techology in the field.

    As nice and pure as it seems to go electronic-less and be one with nature, it isn't something I feel is for me and my family. It's definitely a two way equation for me. Having the ability to keep in touch with my wife and make sure she and the kids are ok while I'm out, always me to be more...

    *Spoilers* Soooo...any Game of Thrones fans?

    I'm trying to remember if I have ever been more disappointed in a superficial hobby in my entire life. The ending could not have been worse for me. Hated how there was 6 seasons of build up over the night kind and it was over so fast. Hated the way Jaime and Cersei died. Super underwhelmed by...
