    https://youtu.be/-Vmpmw-tqHk A little late but I was able to harvest a nice Ram this on 12/15/2021. I knew how special drawing this tag was (6 Bonus Points) and wanted to do everything I possibly could to earn this privilege. I immediately got in the phone and called everyone I knew that might have information that I could use, watched every video and read any type of information I could about Desert Bighorn. To be honest Bighorn hunting was something I never thought I would have to think about until I was 60, 70, 80 years old IF I was lucky! I knew I wanted to scout as much as possible. I attended the Sheep Clinic and also the banquet and I tried to absorb what ever information I could. I scouted hard about 10 weekends I was able to make it out. I took tons of video and pictures. I would spend all week reviewing/judging. I wasn’t to big on score but was hoping for a 170’s mature ram. When the hunt came I kept preaching patience to myself. I was wanting to spend time enjoying the hunt and that I did. I had lots of help from a lot of friends that made it when they could. The weather was perfect, it was overcast a few days, some light rain and highs in the upper 60’s. After seeing on average of about 10 or so different rams a day over different country, I finally found the Ram I wanted to take a shot at on Tuesday evening. We bedded him down and made a plan that he was there in the morning I would try and take him. Wednesday morning we had to walk in about a mile and there he was up and feeding. My buddy Marcos Ranged him at 600 yards I settled in with a nice cliff on my right, reminding myself not to get to excited and fall over. 610 yards, a little further than I was wanting to shoot but I was comfortable, we made it happen. I definitely couldn’t be anymore appreciative of the tag I had I understood and soaked it all in! Thanks to everyone’s advice and help, the wife of course, my family who helped wherever I needed, my 10 year old Brody who could only be out there 4 days because of school getting into the way! my friends with Ace in the Hole Outfitters Marcos, Jon and Ramon. Friends that helped glass, give advice and anything else I needed, Gabe, Brian Myers Matt, Drew, Craig, Kile, Ogle a long list that I’m sure I’m forgetting a lot of people by they know who they are. Also big thanks to Jon with Ace in the Hole in putting together this video for this once in a lifetime hunt !

    Can I shoot a Triceratops if it's wearing a AZGFD radio collar? Calling the Triceratops during the rut is problematic. You'll often call in a T-Rex or Allosaurus too looking for a Trip Tip meal. But they're not in season. Better have great cammo.

    My experience after living in Idaho for 20 years is that Mud Terrain work well on fresh snow / mud but poorly on sheet ice and wet pavement. If I were you, I would go with the AT and buy a set of chains for those backcountry trips where you need the extra traction. Chaining up all four can be handy when you need it along with a tube or two of traction sand in the winter months to sprinkle on that sheet ice when you need it. Hope that helps!

    My son now lives in NV and they have a pretty unique tag turn back program. I won’t bore with the details but he was able to grab this late season bull tag. Filled his first bull tag while I was in route to help on the hunt. By the time I got there he had capped and quartered the bull by himself and humped the head and cape off the mountain. Happy to know I taught him a bit. Anyway even though all I go to help with was the meat haul it was a good hike and I couldn’t be happier for him

    Straight up scammer. If the fact that he doesn’t even know how to price what he has isn’t enough, there are a lot of oddities in how he chooses his wording, which is typical of scammers. I’d stay far away from this, even at $1,100.

    It seems all we ever hear about is negative experiences in customer service, so I want to relay a positive experience recently. In December I emailed Sig customer service, as my LRF (an early Sig Kilo 2000) that my LRF would no longer range past about 400 yards. This was after putting new batteries in etc. It took a couple weeks to get an email back, but after a few emails with a rep, he gave me a RMA, and I got the LRF in the mail. Less than a week after they received it, I got an email notification of a packaged shipped from them. The are not only replacing my LRF, but upgrading me to a Sig Kilo 5K, 100% free of charge. Wonderful service and I couldn't ask for anything better!

    The first edition doesn’t have the 184 grain 7mm bullet. It stops on the 180 grain for all of the 7mm cartridges.

    Interestingly enough, Im looking at the Nitto Trail Grapplers as my next tire. I do drive alot of highway, but this tire looks like it has great reviews and for the guys that ran them in this past weekend's King of the Hammers race they can take one heck of a beating. This article I was reading and addresses alot of the questions you have. https://tireer.com/nitto-trail-grappler-mt-review/

    When in college in Salt Lake (a LONG time ago), I had BF Goodrich Mud Terrain tires on my Toyota. My pals and I spent many, many, days/nights out four-wheeling while hunting or for fun in all kinds of weather, and those tires were AWESOME in snow. Honestly, don't remember how they performed on packed roads (ice), but they were great off road in either mud OR snow. S.

    Can't really blame them, it is your first post in the classifieds, and it reads as new Binos but they're clearly an old model. Plus the pricing is... interesting. Either way, good luck with your sale

    It was cold with wind chill in the mid 20’s opening morning. Saw nothing but deer and coyotes. We had to walk around to check out small cuts out of the wind. We found just 2 pigs feeding and were able to double up at 52 yards. We stayed around for another day and found a couple more herds for next year’s HAM trip.

    First post. Old style binoculars claiming they are new and selling them for new HD price. Totally not a scam.

    I just buy a really fatty ribeye roast from Costco and grind it up for my burger. I try to do 20-30% of game meat weight.
