    Arbitrary Hunting Goals

    Because I am a glutton for punishment: solo archery mature bull elk, public land, done from start to finish by myself. Scout, call, kill, clean, pack out, process. No help from anyone. I want to do this once in my life while I am still healthy enough to do it. Almost did it last year, but could...

    Tinder/Hinge/dating apps in general

    I took a family law class 7 years ago, and the statistic I learned then was that the divorce rate from the 70s through the early 2000s was around 50% of all marriages, and now it is nationally down to about 33% of all marriages. The theory at the time I took the class was that more people were...

    Just going to re-emphasize this important point.

    6.5 PRC Christensen Arms Mesa Vs Browning X-bolt Hells canyon

    When I walk into Scheels I see many, many Christensens on the used and returned shelf. They have a reputation for poor quality control. If you get a good one, awesome, but there seems to be just as many lemons out there with them too. Have a friend with a hells canyon speed in 7 rem and it is a...

    Whatever happened to..?

    Took on-and-off breaks from social media through school, during election cycles, and particularly in the months leading up to the bar exam. I probably have saved a few friendships by not knowing what people post online at times. I also see all of this as an indispensable tool to learn how people...

    Whatever happened to..?

    You are wise and this forum is what one makes of it. Sometimes it depends on the topic. Not just dwelling on policy discussions and digging around in all the other stuff on here helps. Just going hunting is even better.

    I understand both sides of this, @TOGIE and @mtmuley.

    There's also this. I did a pro-bono child custody battle one time and it was awful; took a year and a half to resolve and it didn't end well for anyone, particularly the kids. Was talking to a colleague yesterday about a couple paying their lawyers thousands of dollars to argue about who got the...

    Tinder/Hinge/dating apps in general

    I've accepted that, now in my mid 30s with a pretty slim dating pool, "cool uncle" is probably where my life is going. Moving to a bigger city just so I can find a partner simply isn't worth how good I have it. My current career, volunteerism, and the hunting, fishing, and skiing nearby are all...

    UPOM suing FWP over elk regulations

    To anyone wondering, a handful of folks did file as intervenors (https://www.keepelkpublic.org/) and this case is going to have its first oral arguments this Friday at 9:00 A.M. in Lewistown before the Hon. Judge Gregory Todd over competing motions for summary judgment. UPOM buried the State in...

    What makes a "good" hunter?

    Yes, it is highly subjective, which is why it wasn't much of an insult when I saw it used in the context above, because the person making comments about how "good" other hunters he's never met are probably doesn't share the same values as me or them. I'll now throw in my 2 cents: To me a good...

    Safari Club International supports WEST Act to withdraw Public land rule

    BLM is mixed use, and conservation should absolutely be part of the mixed use equation. That doesn't mean it is the only use, just another consideration. SCI doesn't surprise me, but I am surprised by RMEF. If RMEF truly believes their own motto, that "hunting is conservation," then they...

    Winchester Mod. 70

    I bought a M70 5 years ago in 300 win mag. Got a muzzle brake on it, and also took it apart and lightened the trigger pull as much as I could, which required melting and chipping away the epoxy over the adjustment screw. Still a little stiff, but better. Printed 1 MOA with Federal Trophy Copper...
