    Your elk goals 2022?

    Thanks MTWop. People definitely need to consider what you've said as it is true. I'm experienced and only hunt in MT (MT native) so I know the conditions and I've taken most of my elk out solo. The miles I stated was my planned distance in to get away from people, but I didn't say it would be...

    Archery Elk hunting Solo in grizzly country.

    I frequently spike hunt solo in griz areas and have had multiple encounters, the closest being about 30 yards with a sow and a cub, she was not friendly and I didn't have a sidearm, I figured I was done. It was scary and anyone who says it isn't is lying to be manly or lying because they have...

    Your elk goals 2022?

    Spike camping in solo 8-12 miles. Looking forward to phone/media free time, beautiful sunrises and sunsets, eating crap freeze dried meals, putting my sore feet in a cool mountain stream, not running into grizzlies again (for a 4th year in a row!), having a snort of bourbon before bed and...

    Don't be a sucker!

    I think pillow cases and sheets are fine if you are road hunting or staying close to a road. I've used them and they work for that. For the last 8-10 years I've used caribou gear meat only bag as I only backpack hunt and bone out my meat. They are lighter, stronger, have a cinch cord...

    Is this your Bull? Diamond Creek ID

    I realize this is an older thread but I've lost a couple elk bowhunting. It sucks big time. I think this is really cool that the OP is willing to share if someone provides the details to claim. Good on ya' Colby3.

    Tips on Getting People to Hunt With

    Interesting thoughts. I've also posted looking on RS for a hunting partner. When you get too specific (like mine apparently is) the pool gets pretty small but I guess if you do find someone the chances are higher that you might make it through a hunt together.

    Montana hunting partner from the Pacific NW

    I'm back from New Zealand. It was a pretty fun trip aside from all the covid hoops to jump through. I didn't know what to expect so I set my expectations low and had a great time. I tried hard to get one with my bow but couldn't make it happen so had to resort to a rifle. The red stag is...

    Hybrid Tent

    Thanks Kevin & sndmn11. I know the SO tents are light which is awesome but nothing compares to canvas for comfort...but it is heavy. I just need to decide if the extra 9-ish pounds and some bulk are worth it for my application. I still think a hybrid tent with a 5-6 ounce canvas roof and...

    Hybrid Tent

    Thank you all for the responses. Unless Beau Beatty's tent fits the bill it sounds like a courthouse with the liner is the direction I'll go.

    Hybrid Tent

    I'm in the market for a larger than backpack but smaller than car size tent. Basically an ATV tent. I'm in an area that is ATV/motorcycle accessible and want a bigger than backpack tent. I'm considering the SO Courthouse or a Snowtrekker canvas tent. My question is: does anyone make a...

    Montana hunting partner from the Pacific NW

    I've had a few responses but nothing has panned out and it has been almost a year so thought I'd bump this up to the top. If you are interested tell me about yourself, your family, what else you do besides hunting, etc. Last year I had a great time elk hunting again. I mountain biked into a...

    Montana hunting partner from the Pacific NW

    So, this is awkward for me but...I'm looking for a hunting partner. This is not going to be an easy position to fill but if filled I promise amazing times and one of the most loyal friends you've ever had. I live in SW Washington but was born and raised in Montana and that is where I go hunt...

    Elk calling in Bear Country.

    This happened to me last year in SW MT. I was working a bull pretty close right on the edge of thick timber and using soft cow and calf calls. Things were going well and all of a sudden he just shut up like he was never there. I heard something behind me in the more open area and moving...
