I was looking at those sets and thinking man thats wild he shot another buck that looks EXACTLY the same. Some hell-acious genetics in that area! Never heard of anybody stripping and mounting velvetbefore. That’s awesome
I get that. Do you think most people are properly able to identify a mature buck? I mean really think about it. Some are very obvious, but most people would think big rack, mature buck. Not the case.
How would age related regulations work?
Can you do that? Serious question. I have never heard...
I’ll more than likely be solo calling. I think the saddle would make me feel better. The only bear I could see in a “self defense” situation would be a grizz (ok, sow and cubs black too) and if I even saw a hint of one coming in I would go silent and hope it stops. Cross that bridge when I...
I know Idaho already has antler restrictions, but if something drastic wanted to be done they could implement say a 5 point restriction. No less than 5 points per side. Muley, WT, elk.
Your success would nose dive, game numbers would increase, hell most people probably wouldn’t even try for a...
And thank you for having a program like that. Its awesome people out there put together things like that to help guys who may never get the opportunity
Hey I stumbled on this post looking at something else purple heart related. Do you guys get a ton of applicants? If so, are most of them really limited physically? I have never thrown my name in any hats because I have plenty of buddies missing multiple limbs that have done hunts like that and...
Very true. I’m honestly not upset about it at all. Kept me hunting for the rest of the trip.
And as far as the hunter at the bottom, I am quite certain somebody out there probably has a similar story with me in it.
I had spotted a great opening morning public land bull the evening before in a glacier chute about a mile and a half further from my glassing point. Came out in the dark with a battle plan in my head for the morning. Morning comes and Im heading up the mountain above camp and as I crest the top...
Went to the site. Pretty cool group, trying to keep wolves in check.
As far as blind calling in griz country I also considered taking my saddle. Would allow me some more security. Or find myself trapped in a tree…. Hahah
Ive hunted mountain lions for ten years so I am very comfortable with not being the top predator in the area and calling using a hard back drop. Grizz is just next level.
And I agree with you. My tags are not the priority. We are there for his elk tag. Long story short there may come a period...
I think this is the best place for this. Due to a malfunction of the Idaho queue system I was unable to get an elk tag, but my buddy got his. Still wanting to go I will have a pocket full of predator tags. I have hunted Idaho for a number of years now and I am well aware where we are going is...
Also, it has a handy dandy SOS button right on it. Gets the cavalry coming. Trust me. I accidentally hit it (messing with it in the menu, the physical button is under a cover) in Idaho, but canceled it immediately. Spot called damn near every person in my family until my wife calmed everyone...
Did you find something? My SpotX updates pins to maps people can log on and watch in real time. I have mine set to pin every ten minutes. No phone service required to work with it. Stand alone satellite system.
Also, I usually forget to shut the thing off and it sits in my pack in the cold...
I have a see through blind, with two see through walls, not that brand but same thing. It worked well for deer, had many occasions at 10 yards that had no idea I was there. But you have to be careful with where it is compared to the sun!
If you watch all the review videos I never saw a single...
