I am going to use my raft to access some river bottoms, if I have done zero scouting and have no idea of deer patterns or habit what would be the best strategy for me? I am planning on going next week. Would rattling work? Or just set up a ground blind in a natural funnel. What would be the best...
I was gifted a 7mm Ultra Mag. I have done some research, the gun has a 1 in 9.5 twist. Would it be able to stabilize a 175 grain bullet? Does anyone have any experience reloading this caliber?
A few people have been asking about a real world review. Spent three nights in the Idaho backcountry chasing elk. Rained every night, tent stayed dry. Held up in windy conditions etc. Wouldn’t recommend for two guys, but it’s the perfect size for one guy and gear. We had two guys in it and it...
Decided this was the year to burn my points! Cashed in 10 points and headed to Colorado for 2nd season. I scouted for three days before the opener, had to go to Texas for a work engagement and missed the first two days. It was cold and snowy. I was surprised at how difficult it was to turn up a...
My daughter and I had a blast this year on her elk hunt! We hunted our butts off, had some really low lows and some incredible highs. Glassed this old bull up in a dark timber canyon and she made a great shot at 357 yards. Thanks to those that offered advice on this hunt.
I hate training dogs, but I love running dogs. My young dog Mike is starting to do a really good job. In the last month we went from ripping birds to killing birds. I prefer to let the birds do most of my training for me.
This was my wife and I’s first moose hunt, and we learned a lot from the school of hard knocks. Mainly we learned it takes a TON OF TIME! She passed up quite a few bulls and hiked a few more miles than she had wanted to, but she got on this moose yesterday afternoon. She is on cloud 9 and...
Packed in just over 4 miles to one of my favorite spots. It was freaking brutal weather for early September! Massive wind storm was dropping trees everywhere, it snowed 3 inches and temps in the teens.... first day in had a close encounter with a 6 point bull and some cows but could not close...
I dont want to go through the process of working up a load and sighting in a new gun.If someone has one that they have used in the past that is sighted in I would be very interested.
Thanks

What a rush! A tip from a fellow Rokslider gave me some general areas to check out. Then the INSANE amount of physical effort to scout the unit started. I was humbled by the sheer effort that was required to give this hunt the time it deserved! We hit the trailhead at 7pm on Saturday and arrived...
