    Clear vision optics scam site?

    This totally looks too good to be true and I assume it’s a total scam. NL Pure’s for $942…no way that’s possible. Wonder is anyone on here knows anything about this outfit? ClearVisionOptics

    Possible deer to human CWD transmission

    Not conclusive, but for as long as CWD has been around, this is the first odd occurrence, that I am aware of, of possible cross-species transmission to humans: Two hunters contract CJD with possible causal link to CWD contaminated venison

    Lugging base camp into the backcountry...

    Hey all, So I'm considering lugging my base camp into the backcountry for this upcoming rifle elk season. Typically, I set my base camp at a trailhead and return to it each day. Sometimes, this involves a 3 to 4 hour hike back depending on where and how far in I'm hunting. Yes, I know all about...

    IPhone 14

    Just read that the new iPhone 14 will have satellite communication capability which will go live in November. If this works as advertised, it may make Zoleo and Garmin inReach obsolete. I wouldn’t mind having one device that can do it all, I guess we’ll see…

    COVID-19 antibodies detected in whitetails

    I have been thinking about this for a while given how broad ranging whitetail populations are, and the proximity to humans, I figured it was just a matter of time before COVID shows up in whitetails. Looks like it has happened. What is most surprising, is that nearly half the samples collected...

    Options for trying on boots until you find one that fits...

    Just purchased a pair of boots from goHUNT for my son, but unfortunately I had to return them since they were too tight for him in the toe box. He'd like to try some others, but it cost me $36 to return just that one pair. For those of you like me, that do not live anywhere near a place where...

    May 20th, really?!?

    Nothing new to report here, just venting my frustration of having to wait until May 20th for NR elk draw results from Wyoming. How ridiculous considering apps had to be in be Feb 1! No one forced me to apply that’s for sure, but jeez, way to string the NRs along....

    Ft. Riley poachers

    Guess these guys were hunting in the "impact zone" which is always off limits? Must be a fun hunt when the Abrams are training. Surprised they didn't win the Darwin award for such world class stupidity... Kansas charges three men with Lacey act violation

    3D Mapping Beta on goHunt

    Don't know if anyone else noticed this, but goHunt now has a very extensive mapping capability available that rivals OnX, but also includes a 3D mapping feature which is a game changer. It's essentially Google Earth coupled with the OnX capability. I just started toying around with it and will...

    Google earth critters

    Combing through my hunt area on google earth this morning looking for critters and I came across a few. The first pic are clearly elk to me, but the second pic I'm not sure. There are 3 critters there and they are the only ones around in a vast area, they are headed towards a creek bottom. What...

    So I was at the range the other day...

    I was the club range the other day and shooting hours start at 0830. I got there a bit before shooting time to set up, but ended up having to wait a bit longer for things to “clear up”...

    Grocery handling tips - CV19

    Some of these suggestions are common sense, but I thought worth sharing with this community anyway. I live in NJ and you all know the situation here. I'll be the first to admit that I dread going to the grocery store and risking bringing something back to my family.

    150gr Nosler Accubonds .308

    I’ve been shooting factory loaded 150gr Nosler Accubonds in .308 and they shoot really well. Killed plenty of deer with them and now I’m thinking about using them for elk given their excellent accuracy out of my rifle. So would you guys mess with a heavier bullet or do you think the 150’s are...

    SW Montana - Elk migrations

    With the seasons this year seeming to go from summer directly to winter, with little in-between, are you folks from SW Montana seeing some earlier elk movement from the high elevations to transition areas, or even to wintering grounds already?
