    Your hunting money

    Guess I’m just blessed. I spend way too much on hunting and fishing but she doesn’t care. If I say that I’m gonna buy “X”, she’ll just respond “well that’s what you work for”. Now if I could just stop being a gear whore, I could spend it on something else!!

    duckworth wool

    Bought the spruce colored powder hoody. Has to be the softest wool I’ve ever tried and doesn’t itch like most. Has become my new favorite piece.

    Returning Home With Elk Meat

    Colorado hunts are normally around 26 hours. Hunted Idaho and South Dakota this year. Those trips were 32 and 24. I drive these alone and usually sleep in truck on way out but did get a hotel on the SD drive out this year. As far as how much time from work, just add 4 days driving to how ever...

    Lets be honest

    Last 10 or so trucks have all been diesel. We do pull different trailers for work and farm but just primarily my personal preference to have diesel even though it does hit the pocketbook a little harder. Never had issues that were catastrophic. Daily driver now has 210 k on it and my other on is...

    Returning Home With Elk Meat

    From SC and always drive. Never have to worry about meat or rack getting back home and since I suck at proper planning for what gear to take, I just pack it all.

    Idaho Tag Site Already Crashed

    Being that I actually paid for the tag, I guess that made what he did ok. That was my first time with an outfitter and it did seem odd the way it worked but I’m not sure. Have always done OTC so new to that process.

    Idaho Tag Site Already Crashed

    Outfitter I used did indeed have outfitter tags but would also have himself and his guides stand in line to secure NR tags for those of us who were gonna use him for a hunt. I know this happened first hand as he texted me from the IGF office to tell him that he had my tag and I could log off. My...

    Idaho Tag Site Already Crashed

    In regards to the outfitters buying tags yesterday, that’s pretty normal. They have sold the hunt to a non resident and are there buying the tag for the non res. All the non res has to do is give his online info(last name, dob, last four of SSN) to outfitter and they do the deal at the sales...
