Bfg tires have a softer rubber compound. They will run forever on half ton and lower trucks. All my friends and family running bigger trucks burn them up in 15k miles but Toyota's and my Broncos will get a very long life using them I get 50 out of them and but they get dry after a few years.

I concur. I got almost 15k on BFG ats on my dually , mostly towing. That gets expensive.

Yep. Plus claims to have sold items on here previously but has only 3 posts and all of them on this thread. The joining in 2016 part gave me pause but maybe that's just scammers playing the long game. Idk

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 !

Great pics and congrats!! Glad to see there is hope for those of us non-max point holders!!

She said no musher would ever travel with a rifle or a large caliber gun, instead preferring to scare off animals with a flare gun. And with all the jostling of the sled, the larger guns could easily go off.…………..

So you're saying there is a chance!! And I am getting grumpy about my 7 deer points.awesome story and ram!

Outstanding man. Congrats. Great ram. It’s a special feeling sheep hunting. Glad you got to experience every minute of it.

Beautiful! Awesome country! 37a is such a cool unit

Sent you a pm

I've been very happy with Cooper tires. The ones have now are stt.

Carnicerias are another place that’s come through same day for me

Ragged tops are gnarly glassed a lot of younger rams on there I never hiked it. There’s a drinker on top of it I’d like to hike in check it out and glass one day. I have pictures on another post I put on here of a scouting trip and there is a couple young rams where if they took a wrong step they were goners!

I was the last person I thought would be getting a tag this early. The reason I only had 6 points is because I never put in because I knew I would never get drawn! Guess I’m proof there is always a slim chance!

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!

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.

Not on the east side but if you really need my cousin owns Eric's Family BBQ in Avondale, I can ask him to save you brisket trimmings.

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.

this is one of the most ridiculous statements i’ve read. Would you rather have a good shot at killing a big animal once in your lifetime or a reasonable chance at killing a big animal every several years? Quality is down across the state but it is still there. You’ve just got to hunt a little harder now.

Western Hunter is pretty decent

Posted a pic in the buffalo thread but let’s see what others have hanging on the wall.

Not to screw up a sale but I saw about the same quality 243 ammo for $24 a box at walmart yesterday. $2 a round is pretty high for 243.

If they’re good enough for the creedmoor, they’re good enough for any cartridge on this earth. I didn’t think brushes were marketed as cartridge specific? That’s absolutely ridiculous if true
