    Hunter’s Big Chance 2019

    Tease. Those of us sitting up all night with sick kids sure could use some hunting entertainment...

    Which weapon would you choose?

    Handgun not an option. I am seriously considering my hawken muzzle loader though. Just not very confident in its consistency yet though.

    Rut-ish. Like all earlyish hunts it depends on weather. Should be rutting still though. For sure responding to calls. Any weapon hunt. Last year I carried my bow and had my rifle in my backpack scabbard. Got real heavy at 11k elevation...Lol I was "second shooter" as my bro in law had never shot an elk. After many close calls (all archery) I finally just decided to shoot one with the rifle just so we wouldn't go home empty handed. Wouldn't even have taken the rifle if it wasn't my dad's rifle. Just curious what you guys thought given the option.
  9. You are having too much fun. Between you and Houston enough horn has been passed to fill a semi truck!

    Which weapon would you choose?

    5 days. Morning hunt and evening hunt each day. Opportunity at elk pretty much every day. This is not a "trophy hunt by any means. They call 300-320 class a "trophy". There is always a chance for a big one, just not likely. I got a nice 5x5 let year with my dad's old 35 whelan rifle so no real desire for that again.

    Just went through the same research. I ended up with the Kawasaki Teryx4. It fits our family perfect. Easy to get in and out of the backseat and hauls 4 big dudes very easily. With the added jump seat in the back I can put an extra child in too. The only thing I DON'T like is that they are a bit tall. But that is because of the stadium seating. I have to air down when putting it in my toy hauler. Oh, and not as many after market parts as there are for some of the others. I loved the looks and features of the honda and was very close to getting it. The kawasaki just fit us better. And its ORANGE so it wins hands down.

    Prickly pear syrup and jelly

    Probably nailed it. They were pretty ripe. Maybe I just had incorrect expectations as to the juice taste too. I will try again. I hate flying blind. Lol. Thanks for the input.

    Prickly pear syrup and jelly

    didnt even get that far. The juice itself just smelled and tasted bad after juicing. Tried several different methods of juicing. Some worked better than others but all tasted and smelled bad. Am I missing something? Is that just the way it is supposed to be? As good as the fruit tastes I couldn't believe the juice was so different.

    Prickly pear syrup and jelly

    I completely suck at being at being a pioneer wife. Collected a ton of pears yesterday and went through all the proper steps and my juice tastes like crap. It actually tastes like stink bugs. No idea what I am doing wrong. Going to collect some more and try again.

    Pinpointing downed animal

    What method(s) do you use to help find downed animals when you are by yourself? Lets say you shoot across a canyon, knowing you have a good hit and a downed animal, how do you get yourself to THAT spot efficiently to start your search? This is of course assuming there are no power lines use as a point of reference....
