I recently scored a great deal on a NIB Howa Alpine Mountain Rifle in 7mm-08 or as i have seen called 7mm-HuntTalk or .284-HuntTalk. I have always been a fan of the Barnes TTSX Bullets and have had nothing but luck out of them. Does anyone know of any companies out there that load the 140 grn...
I’m headed out to unit 54 this September with an Army buddy and a high school classmate. This will be my first ever DIY backcountry hunt. So I’m super pumped about heading out west. I’ve already identified 12 different glassing locations along with finding water sources. Leaving ohio on the...
I 100% agree on this. I flew in from Ohio for my first Rendezvous last year on a solo trip and it took about an hour to at the brew fest to make friends and have people to hang out with. Definitely make the trip out if you can.
Figured I would get in on this early and start the thread. Who’s going this year? I’ll be making the trip for the second year in a row. This time I’m bringing my Dad with me.
Also a reminder the early bird pricing ends this month for tickets. O and the Field to Table dinner is already...
Welcome to the forum! I am in Ohio as well. I live north of Columbus near Cardington. I am planning an Elk/Mule Deer DIY hunt next fall in Wyoming with a co-worker and a high school classmate of mine.
Congratulations Private! I can still remember my basic training graduation back in July 1998. Tell your daughter she can pass on to her brother that USAF stands for U Suck At Fighting. lol
Hall pass granted from household six! I fly into Bozeman and then will get a rental car and head to Missoula in time for a few beers Friday. I bought the $500.00 early bird VIP Bundle. Hope to meet a few of you and pick your brains a little bit about backcountry hunting.
I had the Eco Boost and Multiple times the Turbo's shut off on me and I had almost no power. Happened once to me while towing and passing someone. Talk about scary. My dad had the eco boost and recently upgraded to a new F150 with the V8. He gets the same gas mileage, and doesn't have to...
I'm still weighing coming or not. I want to go but the 1,500 budget could buy a lot of Sitka gear for this fall. I can fly into Missoula but it's 700 or I can fly into Bozeman for 470 with a rental car for 100. I wish I could drive it but Ohio is just a tad too far away for a weekend drive.
Wow I had no clue about that! Thank you very much for the reply. I guess that means I can bank the grand I was planning on spending on the trip. Are there other big events that would be good to go to for a flat lander? I have gone on one guided elk hunt with my dad who is 64. I want to go...
I have always wanted to go to the western hunting expo. Is it worth it to fly out to it from Ohio? I want to start planing a DIY backcountry hunt and hoped there would be good seminars and gear for sale at the expo. I'm thinking I would fly out on Wednesday and then take the red eye back on...
IMO you cannot go wrong with Barnes TSX or TTSX bullets. My dad shot a 1,000# moose at 100 yards through the brisket with his 7mm and the moose dropped 70 yards away. You cannot ask for better results. The bullet was found with almost no weight loss.
