    Idaho Spring Bear

    I'll be putting baits in tomorrow afternoon. this is several weeks early for me too, so a bit of an experiment. I've said before in this thread that I historically kill bears around Memorial day weekend regardless of weather, so I'm interested to see how much play I get prior to that, this year.

    Alaska Sheep Harvest 2023

    I applied for tags for the Methow Goat unit for many years. unfortunately the population dosnt support a season any longer due in large part to intrusion of other user groups like climbers.

    One Turkey decoy

    One decoy I'd choose a DSD jake. But I've had toms seem to ignore the jake by itself. A jake hen pair is better. if your worried about to much to carry, sometimes Ill carry a DSD upright hen and a funky chicken jake decoy because it fits in the bag with the hen.

    Favorite red dot/reflex sight

    I have three Burris fastfires on shotguns and have been pleased. I like the auto brightness setting. Its a good middle of the road unit. I also have a couple Holosuns on pistols and am happy with them too. I don't think you can go wrong with either. Haven't used the Vortex RDS but have used...

    20 Gauge Turkey Gun Set Ups

    Rem 870, Burris Fastfire III, heavyshot .573 tube, and Apex 8.5 shot. Pretty sure the tube is made by Carlson's. I've tried a couple others but this one has been the best. 4 birds this year between myself and others, nothing over 40 yards.

    How's the big game draw going?

    Nothing from AZ, and didn't buy anything in Idaho. Drew MT deer elk combo but didnt apply for special hunts, so Ill be hunting general seasons. Still waiting on MT antelope, ID sheep and WA everything. Though WA sucks so I chose points on everything except sheep and moose

    Goat rifle

    Your 6.5will kill a goat just fine. But I’m the last guy to talk a man out of a new rifle. I killed my first goat with a Tikka t3 in 7-08. It did a great job. So what did I do when I got home? I ordered a NULA in .284 Because everyone loves a new rifle. I’ve since killed two more billies with...

    Purchasing used firearm online, safety protocols?

    Deicide what level of risk you are comfortable with, then do your due diligence. As others have said get current pictures with identifying items in them. Call and talk to the seller, Facetime if possible showing the actual firearm. get FFL info if it will be an FFL to FFL transfer, and contact...

    Average age of Rokslide folks

    51 here. I dont think the pole results are surprising. seems pretty accurate of the backcountry hunting community. ETA: I must be getting younger. I used to be a WKR but now I'm a "Lil Rokslider". Been a long time since I was called a Lil anything.

    Idaho Tag Site Already Crashed

    Its a combination. Even though the number of available NR tags hasn't changed for many years, the number of actual NR hunters after those tags has increased. All the tags sell and there is a body in the woods for each one. Used to be a lot less actual non residents hunting even thought the tag...
