    Do you really need a truck to hunt...

    Jeeps are good, but if you want a truck with off road capabilities, you get a Dodge Power Wagon. Picture a 3/4 ton truck with Jeep Rubicon qualities. It comes from the factory with full skid plates (not cheap Ford type), 4.56 gearing, selectable lockers front and rear, a 16,500 lb winch 1 ton axle shafts and frame with additional ladder bracing. I'm not entirely opposed to getting a dodge either it's just I've heard their tranny's suck

    it was stuck because it was a gutless ford though, not because it was

  7. I shoot barnes ttsx out of my .30-06 and they are very accurate. like firstcoueswas80 said, these bullets act heavier than they are so you could shoot 168s and get a little more velocity than 180s

    Saved an Elk's Life

    Was turkey hunting this weekend when I heard this yote barking a few hundred yds away so I started blaring on my jackrabbit call and within a minute or two a cow came hauling a$$ out of the trees with this dog chasing him 50 yds behind. He stopped 100 yds from me and I dumped him

    Turkey Set up for Youth

    I've used my Mossberg 500 in 20ga shootin 3" #5 shot loads since I started turkey hunting at 15 and it's been effective for me. I've put 3 birds on the ground in 3 years hunting with it

    Justifying and Supporting Hunting

    Unless they are a vegetarian, they have no argument whatsoever. If they are, I tell em that hunters keep populations in check

    Are they done gobbling?

    I didn't hear any gobbling at all last weekend in 6A. Your best bet is to sit water and rd hunt

    Eagles on the Salt

    Took my kayak out to the salt today after work and was surprised to see 2 bald eagles. After living in Arizona for 13 years I've only seen 2 others and they were in Flagstaff and Payson. Is it common to see bald eagles down here? trim.056C85A4-F870-4FED-8361-5A55B5F6D63B.MOV

    Who is going to New Mexico

    Was excited for my wife's first archery elk hunt in 7E...

    If you scout your a$$ off and give it heck for the whole hunt you can definitely get it done. Depending on what kinda bull you're holding out for you could lucky and kill early. Last year, I killed on the first day of my late archery bull hunt

    22-250 or .243 for yotes and mulies

    22-250 would be better for fur on the yotes but I would never use one for mule deer so I'd go with the .243. I have a Remington 700 in .243 with a bull barrel set up for yotes and deer
