    Hunting Trip Ideas / 40th birthday

    Mountain goat hunt in Alaska. Probably won’t be this year, but who cares? It’ll stretch your budget but if it’s a year or two out, I bet your cool wife will be cool with it. If you really have a $10K budget and end up going to TX, I’m gonna reach through the internet and strangle you, bruh. Oh…...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    The brain trust behind this proposal doesn’t need me to speak for them, but, based on the nature of some of the criticism, I feel the need to remind everyone that this proposal isn’t being billed as a rigid, foolproof method for curing all that ails MT mule deer. Re-reading Gerald’s initial post...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    You’ll have to explain this to help me understand. Yes, 100% of your time will be devoted to your chosen region, but 0% of your time will be spent in the 2-3 other regions that you said you typically also hunt. Doesn’t that reduce pressure in those areas? I don’t get what you mean. Unless you’re...

    Yeah, I think that’s part of the point, though. 1980s management is taking us off a cliff. The pathway out will require behavior change from everyone

    Under the proposal, you’d still have the opportunity to do just that. You’d be hunting for a whitetail, but you get to hunt one all rut long.

    Love it. And I appreciate the effort of those of you spearheading the effort. Thoughtful. Measured. Seems like a great first step forward. I certainly hope it gains transaction. Well done!

    2024 New Mexico Draw Results

    Congrats on all the options. I’m another one who would encourage you not to over-think the pronghorn rifle too much, unless you just want to buy another one. My dad uses his 340 Weatherby for antelope. It kills ‘em. 😅

    2024 New Mexico Draw Results

    My son drew the only unguided nonresident youth deer tag in 2A. Lucky kid.

    I drew a once in a lifetime sheep tag at 25. Now what?

    Yeah, congrats on both the sheep and the child. I’d forget all about the sheep for the month of October at least. Find some family to help out the new mom when you slip away in Nov and Dec. You won’t need October to find a good ram. Enjoy it. What a fall!

    I’m no help but congratulations on the tag. Should be fun!

    Pick a state to become a resident ...

    Pick a state to become a resident ...

    If we’re strictly talking big game hunting, I think it’s hard not to rank Alaska #1. $30,000 NR hunts for the cost of a bush plane ride is quite a deal. But if we’re limiting this to Lower 48, Wyoming would be my easy choice.
