    What is your favorite wild game meat?

    'lope for me. Miss the good ol' days where the herd numbers were good and I could shoot 3 a year.

    Randy's Bino case

    There are two little mesh pockets on either side of the main pouch. Part of the standard design.

    Cold weather fire kit?

    Next time you open one of those plastic costco nut jars, keep the foil circle from the top. Really good to put those vaseline cotton balls on when you're starting a fire in the snow. It'll keep burning long enough to get wet tinder going. I keep a couple folded up in the fire kit.

    ISO..Quality axe and hatchet

    Yup. Love my GB small forest axe. I've had a few different ones over the years and this one is by far the best. Don't even mind hauling the weight around in my pack.

    Antelope meat recipes?

    In my house we love 'lope burger. Anything that isn't steaked is ground with 15% pork fat added. Salt and pepper and you've got the best hamburger steak on the planet.

    Fin, I'm just hoping that I can have some of the same ju-ju you've got going on and draw another limited entry tag next year:) This year's hunt is one I'll never forget, and I'm fortunate to have had the experience.

    Montana Toad...

    It's all good, and I've even learned a thing or three about how to avoid other hunters. It was a great experience through and through and I met a lot of nice folks that'll be friends for years. I'm still shaking my head at some of the things I saw other hunters do though, not a one of them...

    Montana Toad...

    The hunt ended the day before Thanksgiving for me. 20 below and a nice 5 pt in a field at daybreak. After hunting my ass of since archery, it was time to get it done and this elk was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. The ability to drive the truck up to it didn't factor into taking the...
