We finally made it up last week for my boy’s elk hunt, and he made it count. His first shot was solid, clipping the heart. Earlier that day I’d told him if the elk was still on its feet after the first shot, don’t hesitate—put another one in her. After that first hit, without a word from me, he sent a second round into the lungs. As the cow turned and started to go down, he followed up with a third shot, again through the lungs. She dropped instantly, clean and quick. Hardly any meat damage, and we came away with just over 100 pounds of ground elk.

My brother found some rutting

My uncle came to see me , he has cancer and the Dr.’s are giving him the long face - 😞 so he asked if ide build him , a plain old simple pine box . How do you say No to that ?? Elk antler handles and elk Burr inlay ….. I guess this qualifies for a plain old simple pine box …..

Coues tag started Dec 15 on Ft. Huachuca and I hadn’t had much time to hunt, so I broke away on 30th for a quick day trip. Hit the road at 3:30 AM, buck down by 8:30, and back home by noon. Glassed all morning, only picking up does and no sign of bucks. I was just about ready to pack up and move when I gave it one last look. Caught a flick of movement that gave him away. He was tucked in perfectly—never saw his head or antlers—but his body size told me he was a buck. He was about 400 yards out with no shot, so I ditched my gear and closed the distance to 225. At first I couldn’t find him and thought he might’ve slipped out, but after slowing down I picked up his legs in the same spot—standing now, still no shot. If he dipped, I was done. Instead, he turned in place and bedded back down, opening up a small 12-inch window through the brush. That was all I needed. He never made it out of his bed. Shout out to all the guys on here that gave me some knowledge and pointers! Thanks a ton! Tried adding more pics, but wouldn’t let me got some reason.

The boy and I got out in the woods over Christmas break chasing ducks and geese. As usual I didn't take enough pictures but I did snap a few. Anyone have suggestions for 20ga duck loads? Right now he is shooting 3in #4 Faststeel loads and they aren't working as well as I would like. My son is a pretty good shot and doesn't burn through ammo on sketchy shots so I don't mind spending a little extra on some better ammo. Last weekend he knocked the same duck down 2 times and he still got up and flew off. We watched him go down about 150yds into the trees but never found him.

Hey Guys, I didn't want to step on Tomgobblers thread Pine Box, but everyone has their time, and maybe there's some of you like myself that has more days behind you than in front. Any way if you have an honorable discharge, Uncle Sam will set aside a plot and headstone for you. I recently contacted the VA for prior authorization, something you might want to do to save your survivors from doing so. I applied on the VA website in Sept of 25, due to the govt shutdown I received the paperwork yesterday.

Man what a blessed week! To have the opportunity to go to desert. Have you guys seen the desert lately? So beautiful! Beautiful weather! And to have the ability to harvest a beautiful buck, man I'm...I have no words, I'm just so thankful! Then I go to one of the metro units and took a javalina with my bow! Wow! Happy Birthday to me I guess! Thank you Lord for the opportunity and the ability!

I saw that, I think we are still a 5-10 years away for common use, but it is coming. Be interesting to see the impact.... the anti SXS hunters are going to have a cow and those landowners in Montana, Wyoming, etc that block millions of acres of NF, will probably blow a gasket

I found it. Not a good look. I was helping a friend hunt in 2023 and he had 2 crippled birds that I recovered. The suckers stood up, spread their wings and were wanting a fight. I wouldn't have carried a live one on my shoulders. I was glad I watched Karate Kid as a youngster. I know that the Crane Technique is not to be messed with. You have to sweep the leg.........

Gambel quail on mesquite log by Paul Taylor, Taylor Made Taxidermy, Scottsdale AZ. Good condition. SOLD I am in Phoenix/Ahwatukee near the 202 and 17th Avenue.

Ribeye from the roast from the other day. Steamed broccoli and mushrooms.

Glad I got rid of mine...theyre a PIA to hunt with anyway

Killer deal. Those original Tundras go almost anywhere and ride nice and smooth. Plenty of power w the V8 unlike the Taco and 4Runners. I wish I’d have kept my 06 for hunting. GLWS

I built my own back in 2010 right after both my parents passed! My wife been bugging me ever since and I just couldn’t stand thinking about it even though I have custom built probably 20 more since making my own! Two years ago we got our meager assets all lined up in a trust where my wife declared she was going to be cremated! So I bit the bullet and put this urn together for her!

This will be my wife problem

Is she from the Star Valley area?
