    30A October-Anybody else?

    from what i've studied so far, the lack of access doesn't seem that big of a deal if you are willing to walk 6 or 8 miles. there are a handful of access points that give you a number of options to backpack in.

    Viper 15x50's?

    I've never looked through those but having a 15x with just a 50mm objective would make me shy away from them, i'll bet you lose light quickly. And 15x free handing is not very effective for me. But if the price is right I'm sure they have their place.

    Do you really need a truck to hunt...

    when I was still in college all I had was a little Honda, I guarantee it's been off road more than most of the pretty boy lifted trucks you see on the highway. Now I have a f150 and I'm really glad I have the 4x4 especially in those sandy washes in the flat country and up high on the late hunts

    DIY Elk Euro

    Hey guys, I shot a bull a few weeks ago and want to get him euro mounted for the garage. Taxidermist in town says he'll do for $100. I can get the pot and burner I need for a total of 60 bucks. Is it worth it do just do it myself, or is it darn near impossible to get it cleaned up as good as a professional can do it? Just wanna hear your guys' opinions. thanks

    DIY Elk Euro

    Here is the before and after of my bull. It came out nice and white, even before I bleached it. I simmered for a couple hours in water and super washing soda, power washed, then simmered again in dawn and water. Then I brushed on some 40 wt peroxide gel and here it is. This guy has a horse head on him, his cranium absolutely dwarfs my Wyoming rag horn I killed a few years back. Thanks for all the tips.

    Justifying and Supporting Hunting

    Look on youtube at Steven Rinella's vegan vs meat eater. Basically a guy calls him out at his book signing, and steve knocks it out of the park. I always enjoy the way Steve speaks, and feel he says a lot of what I'm thinking, I'm just not smart enough to word it like he does. Basically what he says is to not hunt, is more unnatural than hunting. He backs it up with archaeological facts, etc. I like when he talks about how he, as a hunter, will know more about and appreciate deer more than a non hunter ever could. Check it out, it's only a few minutes.
