    Cleaning kits

    Just curious if anyone out there has a quality cleaning kit that they really like. I purchased a cheap one a few years ago and just broke the push rod as I was cleaning my rifle. It was one of those $35 kits from the big box stores. Anyone know of any of better quality? I'd rather not have tho...

    Ground shooting grouse

    I just listened to this podcast and chuckled and said "Newberg what the hell are doing?" at the same time. Personally I think grouse are the exception to the rule. I think taking a blue grouse on the ground in the dense woods is a safer option if you are out with a bunch of buddies. For all of...

    High Country Mule Deer Hunt

    25 is definitely a unit that is going to require a lot of scouting. That said anything is possible. If you don't have the time to scout it, I'd find a different unit. Just my opinion and it's probably not worth much lol. Good luck to ya.

    High Country Mule Deer Hunt

    25 is a tough hunt imo. The deer are there but so are the roads and competition. It's real hard to find a secluded area. Oh there are quite a few guides in the area too. That said the deer are there.

    Randy Newberg, Hunter wants your ideas for future videos

    I'd love to see how Newberg handles the butchering process. Everything from where to cut to packaging. Would love to see some of your favorite dishes/ recipes.

    Newbies first deer hunt

    Well I'm back from my first mule deer hunt, and I gotta say it was tough. I had studied the odds and stats before I went and had a feeling I was going to see more people than deer and I was right. The success rate for my units were around 30% and the tag allotment was high. Come to find out...

    Newbie etiquette ?

    You are probably right about being too worried. Thanks to all you guys. I feel better now.

    Newbie etiquette ?

    Fair enough. Good ol common sense can take you a long way. I just fear that every where I go, someone will be posted up there. The units I'll be in aren't very big for the amount of hunters involved.

    Newbie etiquette ?

    I'm going on my first deer hunt in October. I've been pouring over maps and stats and it appears I'm going to be hunting with A LOT of other hunters. There are motorized trails everywhere also. My question is what are the do's and don'ts of my situation? I know this is really vague but I'm just...

    Advise for the newb

    Ok guys thanks. I'm not reloading yet, but I might in the future. I wasn't sure if 150 was enough so I feel better now. I think I'll try some 160ish and see how they shoot. Thanks again much appreciated.

    Advise for the newb

    I'm going on my first mule deer hunt and I am trying to choose the right ammo. I'm shooting a 308. Anyone have an ammo of preference? Is there a bullet weight I should be looking at? Thanks in advance.
