Putting a camera, stand or ground blind does not stake your claim.

Talk about a thankless job and so happy I don't have to live in his shoes. People hate him and want him out on both sides. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

I get its a horrible job. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. But you can not shut down an economy and ruin peoples lives to save a few. This is insanity.

The first person physically at a spot, on any given day, will hunt any spot I visit - even if it is someone else sitting in my treestand over my camera.

How do we start a recall petition? I was throwing a kegger in the desert that day in civics class.

Don't really want to hijack this thread but it brings up a good point. Do you think the guys who set their blinds or stands before the season starts are "reserving" it? I only ask because this had a real impact on where I hunted last year. Personally, I believe in all situations everything is first come first served whether you have a blind there or not. I do not think it is okay to use someone else's property unless they specifically gave you permission. I know if I set up a blind ahead of time and someone got there before me, I would leave. I might or might not take my blind with me but I would leave. If I want the spot bad enough, I would make a point to get there before someone else. OZ31 posted while I was typing. I agree 100% with his statement.

RESIGN!!!! Douche!!!

A diet. 🙄

instead of a chair get a car window mount for your binos.

You won't find it at a better price than this. https://www.novzon.com/folding-comfort-55-stool---large-walkstool

Ha. This made me laugh. Reminds me of a coworker. I asked for a package of triple aaa batteries. She asked me "is that the two a or 3 a kind"?

Good old A3 and others, all about the Benjamin's, guides should be outlawed. Lol

I love San Diego..

If anyone is looking for a new savage axis rifle in 223, 243, or 270, Walmart has them on clearance right now. Greenfield and the 60. 199 for some and 260 for others.

Starting at 8PM the above mentioned off limits again

Wait...did you say bars?

I think disturbing the situation is way more mental than actual. what unit?

Depending on the access to the tank, he'll be lucky to still have his stuff still there... Sadly that's the state of things on public land it seems. I plan on putting my blind up a week or so before the open.

Both correct. I've spent a great deal of time working on fires, both as a firefighter and resource advisor. I've seen all wildlife (deer, elk, bear, turkeys, etc.) back in the burn perimeter before the fire is contained. A typical western fire burns with about 10-ish percent high-severity damage, 30-40% moderate-severity, and the majority is low-severity/unburned. Mosaics are the natural process of a typical western wildfire. Its also very important to differentiate between flame intensity and burn severity. They are not correlated. I've seen plenty of low-instensity flames create high-severity effects because the flames are moving so slow. They sit and burn everything deep into the mineral soil. I've seen high-intensity flames move so fast that there is barely any damage to any vegetation. Of course,these aren't all typical, but they are burning fairly close to a typical fire behavior. A light, steady rain is best to keep erosion minimal, and that will help the green up and keep the deer in there longer. 25-06, I have an inside scoop if you're referring to the Bighorn Fire and you're hunting area. I might be able to get you some info on burn areas if you PM me where you are looking. No promises, to be clear, but I'll see what I can drum up. And, rest assured, you're honey holes are safe with me. I don't roll like that.

I picked up a 6.5 for $175.

Wow, super original.

North side of Mt Ord burned in June of 1972. Looks about the same this time.

Just picked this one up for 24k.

Looks somewhat similar to mine but that one has more mass
