    Can you put fish in a pie?

    At the world famous Paul Bocuse restaurant in Lyon France they have been cooking a whole sea bass in pastry for many years, considered one of France's pillars of French Cooking. The restaurant is consistently ranked one of the top 50 in the world. Sadly, Paul Bocuse past away in 2018. A few...

    With one more week of shotgun turkey season here in California I've reached my spring limit of 3 birds. It was an exciting season that included helping and calling in a bunch of birds for friends and some good eats.

    Flat tops

    Hi Hunttalkers, I'm considering doing an elk drop camp this year in Colorado's Flat Tops. It will be during the muzzleloader season and we thinking about going with Fritzlan & Family Guide & Outfitter Services. Does anyone have experience with them? Would you hunt with them again? They have...

    The Devil's Lettuce

    I'd rather eat the banana that waste it smoking weed personally. Legalization in California was a win for the environment and conservation. It stopped a lot of the green rush of subdivision and buying up land in counties like Mendocino, Humboldt and Trinity...land prices have actually fallen...

    2024 New Mexico Draw Results

    I'm in for elk, aoudad, and off-range oryx. I was luck to get on-range Rhodes Canyon last year and it was such a cool experience and great table fare I felt obligated to try again off-range. The oryx hunts are cool because you can do them during times of the year you are not already hunting...

    One more week until Oryx

    Right! I guess taxidermy has grown on her over the years. I think it has to do with our old house.

    One more week until Oryx

    Shoulder mount for the wall with the head turning left. Our home is an old Delta Queen Anne Victorian built 1890’s in Sacramento, California with very small rooms but very high 14 foot ceilings so floor pedestal mounts are not in the cards, but the vertical space will be perfect for 37 inch...

    One more week until Oryx

    Yeah, the range might take them away again. They mentioned in our briefing they have had problems in recent years. The hardscrabble mountains and the Sacramento Mountains are beautiful. Both mountain ranges jet out of the desert nearly 90 degrees in some places making for a dramatic setting...

    One more week until Oryx

    Yesterday at 8:12 PM Well, I wanted an oryx 35 inches or better and I got it done this afternoon with this 37 inch cow. It was the first day of the 2.5 day hunt. I made a 408 yard shot with the new Browning 6.8 western about 2 miles from the truck. There were a lot of big boulders that made for...

    One more week until Oryx

    I'm going to be pretty picky and try for the largest I can. My goal is to get something better than 35 inches. The wife wants a shoulder mount for the dining room, so I'm trying for a good one.
