    Trichinosis, be honest, have you gotten it?

    No. But did get a few packs of meat from a buddy that shot one that was going to a garbage dumpster and the meat was rancid. Rancid has a distinct smell and taste. I noticed it right away when cooking it. Would not even feed it to the dog

    How to cape an aoudad for half body mount

    By choice dorsal cut it and sleeve the legs. Just cut from the hoof to the knee on the back side. Dorsal even if taking the whole hide. But for half you can cut it off just in front of rear legs. ALWAYS leave more then you think. It's really pretty easy doing even a full body skin dorsal...

    Best hunting pants for short legs

    These are my favorite pants by far, not cheap but hold up GREAT. They do not block the wind but are what I am wearing most days in other then real cold or rain. They also sell a variety of versions. https://arborwear.com/product/106522/

    NM Ibex

    Use Derek at South Peak. He helped me and knows the mountain and Ibex great. Back when he helped me he responded to I think a bowsite post. After a long talk he asked if I would care if he could come and help me as he had people to help on the other hunts but no one to help on the bow hunt...

    Turkey Grand Slam

    I guess i never posted in this thread that i did kill a couple oscellated. Going in i thought it might be a strange hunt and maybe one to just get them all. But it was a great time. Called birds in 3 of 4 sits. Would do it again for sure

    Sheep Show 2024

    I went again this year, it was a good show. Would i go all the time, no. I will be back to it, just not every year. Of course the 1 more for 4 is by far the best odds i could have for drawing a rocky tag. Still not great. Saw a bunch of people i knew(many only from internet...

    Taking Equity out of Home to Go on Guided Hunts

    I see most all the points being made and it will come down to its up to you and do make a solid choice for your future. I didn't by any means break myself. And am totally happy that I did what I did. Yes you could do cheaper dall first but I do think stone will climb in price faster then...

    Taking Equity out of Home to Go on Guided Hunts

    I did a re fi(2.4%) cash out to do my stone hunt. I am very happy I did. But I also have no kids and never married. So if I die with no money to my name I did good :) My long term girl friend said go for it. Heck I did short term loans for my other 2 sheep hunts, but only tell a couple very...
