    WTS Big Agnes SL 20 Sidewinder Sleeping Bag

    Ordered a Big Agnes Sidewinder 20deg bag before my October hunt in New Mexico. I ordered it the long version and realized once I got to set up camp that they had sent me the short version of the bag. I'm 6'2" so that was just a bit too short to be super comfortable. They would only send me...

    muzzleloader bullets

    It is not the loose powder, but 4 of the Triple 7 pellets. That's what the guy I'm borrowing the rifle from shoots with the load he developed for it. Randy Wakeman discusses shooting 200gr of the Triple 7 pellets. Shooting the 150gr of loose Blackhorn 209 would possibly be more ideal, but I'm...

    New Elk Gun

    I keep trying to convince myself that I "need" another rifle for elk hunting. But I have a 30-06 in my safe that I'm awful nostalgic about that is perfectly capable out to any ranges that I'm comfortable shooting at. So I'll just stick with my Browning A-Bolt in .06 If I were buying a rifle...

    OnX coming up for renewal should I look at competition?

    I am just now tinkering with Gaia since I got a free year of Premium with my Zoleo. I've had OnX for roughly a year. One thing I've noticed is the private land owner information on Gaia is updated a lot faster than OnX. We bought land in New Mexico last summer and Gaia shows our current lien...

    Yep, and REI. Seems like it's on sale everywhere right now. I knew I was going to buy one before my elk hunt, this sale came in pretty handy.

    Wyoming Preference Points Question

    I did an antelope hunt when I lived in Colorado about 20yrs ago. I pulled that off by just finding a rancher and asking him if I could shoot a doe on his place and he agreed. Not sure one could do that anymore. We have a small piece of property in Otero County, NM that we may retire to...

    Wyoming Preference Points Question

    The quality of public land hunts in Texas really is not worth the effort. Honestly it's getting to the point where I hang up my stuff and just remember hunting for how it used to be. I had done that here at home..... drawing a NM elk tag for this year kinda lit the spark again and I'm trying...

    Wyoming Preference Points Question

    Sadly, it probably would mean crossing off antelope hunting. By and large, I get it. I care less for me than I do the younger generations. Hopefully those who want to hunt are finding careers that pay well, because before long hunting is going to be a game for the wealthy. Already is in Texas.
