    Band Saw

    Does anyone use a band saw at home for cutting shanks, marrow bones, etc.? I’m thinking about buying a relatively cheap bandsaw at Home Depot for the task rather than continuing to struggle through with a butcher saw. Any reason I shouldn’t use a standard wood band saw rather than one built...

    Grinding — Auger Meat

    What do you do with the meat at the end of your grind that is wrapped around the auger? I typically have enough meat wrapped around the auger and packed behind the blade that it’s the size of a fist—I typically give it to my dog, curious if y’all do anything different.

Although large pieces of fat and pure sinew/silverskin were discarded, I sent a lot of that stuff through the grinder. I operated under the assumption that "trim...

    Question re: Probabilities

    I am curious if someone knows the proper way to determine the overall odds of drawing at least one tag when applying for multiple draws/units in a true raffle state. For example, if I apply for elk and ibex in New Mexico and my odds for drawing an elk tag are 10% and the odds of drawing an...

    NM Elk - Guided Backpack Hunt in Gila

    Has anyone paired up with a guide to hunt the Gila? I understand that a guide will increase your draw odds significantly in NM. I would still be looking for a backpack hunt with no frills. Very interested to hear from anyone with experience doing something like this or that would have...
