    Im feeling lucky!

    I’ve drawn antelope 3 times in the last 5 years but returned them each time. This year all my eggs are in that basket so I have a feeling I’ll come up empty. I need some of those positive vibes to increase my chances.

    NR Sheep Possibilities

    Not sure which sheep but I know someone that drew on their first season. I think she was a NV resident but even those odds aren’t good.

    I need some help picking a scope.

    I’ve yet to experience any fails but run a leupold vx-6 and has been awesome for hunting and hitting steel at the range but I’d suggest looking into all of the options given here and find the one that is the best deal at the moment

    Lets See your Best Elk to date

    Alright you said best elk not best bull. I’ve only had one bull elk tag and things never lined up for me so I ate tag soup. This cow was taken during the rut and was the second best hunt I’ve been on. First was when my oldest boy and I drew mule deer as a party. Good ole Nevada

    It’s a terrible thing watching them go. This is my current best friend Jäger.

    Proposed Quotas for 2024 Big Game

    Mostly a points year for me. Applied only for pronghorn and bear. Of course my moose tag too!

    Should Governor Type Tags Exist? (Poll)

    draw only without money giving the advantage. No to auctioning, because while I think it’s great to see the revenue, I also see it as a slippery slope toward hunting becoming a rich only endeavor

    Just thought I’d share

    Looks good, I have debated this since I bought my SxS a few years ago. I found its when I have the seats occupied is when I have an issue. I’ll either let someone else drive and I’ll sit in the front holding my rifle between my legs or if I drive the passenger will hold it for me. Otherwise when...

    James P Beckwourth, any books?

    He was a trapper and long hunter with the best of them. Literally with them, Bridget, Glass, Fitzpatrick to name a few. There was probably little game east of the Rockies by then. They’d made coats and hats out em already. Interesting, he was kind of tricked into going with the Crow. One of the...

    James P Beckwourth, any books?

    I was born and raised where Beckwourth lived (at one point of his life). Have you read The Life and Adventures of James P Beckwourth? James Beckwourth: Legendary Man? Jim Beckwourth: Black Mountain Man, War Chief of the Crows? Or Jim Beckwourth: Negro Mountain Man?

    SXS mileage

    And I’d feel even better if Polaris had fixed this years ago when it began. In fact I thought it was an older model issue until I looked again and there are articles about 2022 and 2023 models as well

    SXS mileage

    Haha I razz all my razor owner buddies. We ended up on one of those fires last year and they haven’t heard the end of it since. “See I told ya so”

    Res nonres party

    I did find that and we applied together last year. It just doesn’t mention the answer to my question. Probably because it’s should be implied otherwise all nonresidents would party with residents. I knew someone here would set my mind at ease so I knew for sure.

    Res nonres party

    Thanks for the reply. I figured it might have been too dumb of a question for anyone to be willing to answer but honestly if couldn’t find the answer even though I had a strong feeling what it was. I figured I could take the chance since I have only one point from last year and have a decent...

    Res nonres party

    How bad of an idea is this? Am I right to assume I’d take my resident odds and turning them into nonresident odds by applying with my buddy.

    Oh this would be perfect for them thank you.

    Bolt hitting scope

    I have the rifle all put together. Tomorrow I’ll try to post a picture. I’m pretty excited for the kids to shoot it and I think they are too.

    Bolt hitting scope

    It’s a savage. I went and bought a simple bearpaw cheek riser for $24 so we’ll see how that works. I have to say the stock I got from savage is a hell of a lot better than the original one it came with.

    Bolt hitting scope

    Less than .2” clearance. They are 1”height rings. I’m thinking now they aren’t getting much lower anyways are they? Maybe .90”? Cheek riser it’ll have to be.

    Bolt hitting scope

    Finishing up dinner then I’ll throw a pic up here. Keep in mind the rings mounted don’t hit but are too high for the kids. I forgot to mention that part, although I did mention youth stock.

    Bolt hitting scope

    Looking for advice, I put on the youth stock which fits and I’m happy with that but the bolt handle will hit the scope once I put on the appropriate height rings. What’s the best route? Higher rings with cheek riser or modify the bolt handle? Anything else?

    Your Favorite Method of Hunting? (Poll)

    Never killed an animal with my bow but it’s a great experience. I am terrible at it so I vote rifle. Since last year I had bought a new rifle I’d planned to stick with that but 2025 maybe I’ll be ready to apply for archery again.

    car thieves in Canada

    Oh boy! First of all you don’t know me so how would you know if people like me are the problem. Second, I don’t carry with the intent to use it but if I’m put in the situation where I had to use it. I never said I wouldn’t, I just said if I were to make a choice my truck isn’t worth a life...

    MOST UNUSUAL CATCH ON A FISHING ROD???

    I had the same story. It was what I thought of as soon as I read the thread title. At least these are still fish though. The guy on the ladder next to me was stoked for me until I landed it. When he saw it he was more disappointed than I was

    You do have the right and shooting is an option, but not without consequences

    car thieves in Canada

    I’ll lose the immature side of me and quit arguing with you now. I will add though that while I have nice vehicles I don’t think it’s worth dying over. Or killing for that matter. I do carry so I’m not saying something terrible couldn’t happen, I’d stand my ground, but no I don’t think my car or...

    car thieves in Canada

    Man chill the F out. All I had said was Canada eh. No one said there was no problem, only that you’re obviously on your period and you made a big deal about a stupid joke that wasn’t even funny over a topic that isn’t sensitive enough to warrant a teenage girl style meltdown. This is a day...

    Really? I didn’t realize we were so sensitive here now. It’s car theft, no one died.
