    Things to do in Chicago?

    The museum of natural history is worth checking out. Several good breweries if you’re into that as well.

    .300 Win Mag

    I shoot both and at first the 300wm was not enjoyable for me. I’d get a decent bruise if I fired more than 20 rounds. I picked up a cheap slip on limb saver pad at a garage sale for $1, and now I can shoot that thing all day long. I wasn’t a great shot with it before because I didn’t enjoy...

    One approach to urban deer management, Michigan style.

    It’s been an absolute debacle in AA. Last year they sterilized the females in the dead of a brutal winter and naturally several ended up dying or later being shot by the sharpshooters. Then of course the residents held candlelight vigils for the poor dead deer. Why the state allows this to...

    Late season gloves

    I wear a pair of First Lite grizzlies. They’re super warm and I bought a size up so I can wear my release and still have the mitten on. I can’t stand having anything between my finger and the trigger so I take whatever I have on off when I go to shoot. The mittens have a nice wrist strap so they...

    Scent Lok late season

    Since you asked about warmth and comfort, I will say my scentblocker outfitter coat has been absolutely amazing. I bought the scentblocker brand pants that have the full body harness built in for late season MI bow hunting. I was so impressed with the comfort, warmth, and durability that I ended...

    Bovine Tuberculosis in Deer

    Thanks for sharing. I hunt the Alcona/Alpena county area frequently. One of the infected herds actually borders the private land that I’ve hunted every year. We’ve never shot an infected deer, but we certainly keep an eye out for it. The DNR is all over it up there and have done a decent enough...

    Cwd

    To me it depends on who is eating it. I have not had anything test positive yet, personally. If I did I would not be able to bring myself to throw it away. That being said, I do not have children or anything. I would be feeding it to myself and my wife. If I were feeding the meat to kiddos or...

    Opening Day Anxiety, just me?

    I still get the jitters hunting whitetails in my backyard here in Michigan. The day that it’s gone, is the day I quit hunting. Once legal hunting hours hit on that first day it all goes away until I let a projectile fly, and the second I do, it rushes right back. I don’t think I’d enjoy...

    2018 Waterfowl Season

    Nice duck! It’s always more special to take one with a gun that has nostalgic value. The cold weather really gets the teal moving south. In Michigan, we’ve had an early teal season the last few years that seems like it’s going to stick around. It’s a great time to get some of those resident...

    Any Michigan grouse hunters.

    I was lucky enough to draw a MI elk tag last year and spent the majority of my time in the Pigeon. I still can’t believe how many grouse I saw there, and am definitely heading there this year with my Brittany, ol’ Jume Bug. Even in areas that I would generally overlook as being too mature I was...

    Good books for the backcountry

    Cover to cover would be tough for this one. I had to set it down a bit ago and am waiting for early antlerless season here in MI to read the last quarter or so. I’ve read a lot of dark literature, this is the first time I’ve had to set something down and walk away. I blame it on maturing, which...

    yooper bar

    I remember watching bear wrestling as a child at a bar up near paradise. Yup, as a child, in a bar, watching drunk men wrestle live bears. The UP is a special place!

    Stanley Cup Playoffs

    I’m another for anyone but the pens. Also, Marchand and his antics ruin Boston for me, so they’re out. I jumped on the Vegas bandwagon early in the season, mostly to razz my friends. But the way they’ve been playing and a hot goalie give them a legit chance. I’m rooting for them for the story...

    Somewhat picky rifle, free float/bedding opinion

    I ran into a similar issue in the past with my 300mag. It goes to what someone above me said, I was allowing the barrel to get too hot. The extra heat changes how the barrel moves and can change the pressure in the chamber/barrel as well. Shoot on a hot day with your ammo in the sun and it will...

    Socks?

    Try a few out and make sure you try them with the boots you’ll wear out there. I ended up using thinner merino wool socks than the normal regular wool socks I’m used to, and had to go a size smaller in boot to compensate. It’s been said a million times but it’s worth repeating...

    Hello from Michigan

    Welcome, from Goodrich, MI. Lots of good advice and a surprising amount of people from Michigan on here!

    Tree stand safety

    I use Scentblocker Bib/harness combo. They're a little warm in the early season but are easy to layer and keep warm in during the cold weather. They're super comfortable as well. I attached a link but have seen them quite a bit cheaper at times. With these there is no excuse not to wear a...
