They said they couldn’t determine the energy the bow produced to determine if it was legal or not. The outfitter has had numerous hunters come with bows without issues, but my buddy’s and mine got confiscated. We ended up using an older elite they had in camp with the Russian equivalent of...

Guided hunts will likely continue to go up in price. It’s just the way it is. With that being said, there’s still plenty of low cost opportunities available. Enjoy those every year, keep an eye out for a good deal on bigger hunts and jump on a good opportunity when it becomes available. There’s...

The airport was Moscow.

This is probably a long shot, but my bow was consficated at the airport on a recent hunt. I will need to replace it, and was thinking about what I wanted to get when I realized that the bow I’ve liked the most and was most confident in was my Carbon Spyder Turbo. If anyone has one in black or...

Funny thing, we were asked the same question when we were going through customs in Russia 2 days ago…

I’m biased seeing as I have a 7 PRC and I love it. Mines been crazy accurate with affordable factory ammo. Between myself, buddies, and clients it’s killed 4 bears, 6 deer, an elk, and a few desert sheep in the last year, and the majority of those were one shot kills. Closest shot was 30’...

Im curious how that’s enforceable?

Im certainly no expert on this, but if he’s going to be up high, I’d make sure the mount has him looking down quite a bit. A buddy has a 70 something inch bull in his trophy room and it’s hard to see much other than the fronts with how high it’s hung and the head position.

Headed to Russia in early May for brown bear, and then the day I get back I’ll head to Montana for my annual bear hunt up there. This will be my 9th year in a row.

I guide a handful of desert bighorns every year in Mexico. It’s a tradition to grill a backstrap over a mesquite fire after every kill. The flavor has always been excellent. Sometimes a bit tough, but good flavor. A few times I’ve given the rest of the meat to one of our Mexican helpers and had...

Their feet were amazing to me as well. I took a picture, but it really doesn’t do them justice. Congratulations again on your bulls, it looks like you had one hell of an adventure.

Great work as always, Ross.

Get with it, I’m looking forward to the rest of the story!

Then don’t put in. Or actually put in some time scouting if you drew the tag. That seems to be a foreign concept anymore for a lot of guys. If nonresidents could apply, I would happily.

You mad that mdf hasn’t got a way to swindle money off this yet to save the herds?

These used to be one of the only animals that interested me in Africa, until I realized they cost as much as a sheep! Congratulations on a fine trophy!

Pretty sure he’s asking the guy that actually has hunts to trade Joe…

If you struggle to find stuff in an angled spotter, you’re not using it enough. I’m all for guys using what they like best, but I can’t comprehend someone preferring a straight spotter that uses one much.

Angled every day of the week. I don’t know how anyone uses a straight.

Sask archery bear from 2022.

Thanks again Ross, you always knock it out of the park!

It will turn yellow over time. You can boil them and get them done in a few hours, but there will still be grease in the skull. Properly degreasing skulls takes time, but I have skulls that are close to 10 years old that are still white as can be.

I had 3 approved in about 5 months, but it seems like most are taking much longer.

I heard 208”.

It’s not necessarily trying to make them look bigger than they are, it’s showing them for what they truly are, and having a nice pic to look back on.

A deer mostly broadside, but slightly quartering towards the camera. The hunter sitting cross legged by the opposite front shoulder with his hands holding the main beams under the g2 with the fingers tucked behind if possible. Use your thumbs to push on the back of the g2’s to point the head...

That was last year.

Congratulations on a great bull Jason!

To get a chance at a 180”+ buck you’re going to be $15,000 or more for the most part. You may find better deals, but do your homework and check references.

I killed a bear that had 3 different sizes of shotgun pellets in various places on his body.

Those bulls make the coolest euros. I’ve seen it a few times in person and quite a few times in pictures. It’s impressive what these animals can survive.

The ol’ spotting chode!

Agreed, the 6.5 PRC is a great round, but the 7 PRC is better all around with the cost of ammo still being comparable.

Idaho rifle bull

You really can’t beat their jalapeño cheddar salami.

He hasn’t been on since early September and only has 6 posts. It’s unlikely we’ll get an update.

Home made 22’s out of pieces of pipe from the hardware store, arrow roulette, shooting each other with blow darts and seeing how far they’d stick in, putting tacks in the end of nerf bullets so they’d stick into you, skipping class and making pipe bombs with black powder in high school, I don’t...
