Thanks guys, I hope you'll hop on the website and get one for end table. The 700 pages inside are pretty amazing, with many vintage photos like that one.

Hey everyone, I just thought you might like to know that the new book, "Idaho's Greatest Mule Deer, 2nd Edition" is out. It's an incredible book that took 21 years of research to finish. It's a whopping 704 pages, with over 900 deer in it, all in FULL COLOR, with very well documented history on...

You have to pick. Usually it's which one is better compared to the minimum, or how it ranks respectively in each category. You can NOT enter the same deer in two different categories.

That 5-10 year time frame is called the "seven-year itch" for a reason. The newness has all worn off, you've ridden the coattails of romance as far as they'll go, and now you're down to the true roots of the relationship. Now's the time when a lot of couples have to rebuild from the ground up...

40, 45, 44, 55 early, 67 late, 54 late.

Mat, I think there's a fine line between teaching some of these organizations a lesson by "falling on the sword" for one issue, as compared to looking at their overall track record of excellence for wildlife. We can't just keep dropping memberships to all these groups every time we have a...

In short, a lot of what you see going on in Idaho revolves around the fact that cattlemen/farmers/ranchers have a pretty tight stranglehold on the legislature. At times this is a good thing and at times (particularly for sportsmen and wildlife) it isn't. There's little balance in the legislature...

Topgun, Don't get me wrong - I completely take to heart ALL feedback, and respect what you are saying, and I appreciate you taking the time to say it, so don't think otherwise. On the same token, I'd appreciate if you would also be willing to be open-minded enough to look at the product and...

Tyler, I thank you for the nice email and honest feedback. Thank you for subscribing, and I'll do my best to make this magazine something you're anxious to receive each time. I take this pretty seriously, and want this thing to be the absolute best western hunting publication around, in content...

LAST EDITED ON Feb-23-12 AT 08:45PM (MST)[p]Zim, Here's our conversation: Zim: I hate SFW. Ryan: I'm not a fan either. Zim: No, you're wrong. I hate SFW. Ryan: Uh, I said I'm not a fan already. Zim: No, SFW is bad! Zim, I get it. Really, really, I get it! Thanks. Bingo - THANK YOU for getting...

I understand that, Bob. Please read my #3 point on post 13 for my thoughts there. At the end of the day, this mag will represent all those things you care about.

Zim, You'd argue with yourself over whether the sky was blue. That's a fact and everyone on here knows it. You know by now how I feel about SFW as a whole - I'm not a member. However, I also don't fault sportsmen for doing what they have to do with what's laid in front of them. If a guy wants to...

Deerlove, I appreciate your comments and will keep it in mind. However, again, I hope you will read what I said, take it to heart, and understand what this magazine will represent. If you've followed any of my past work, I think you know that I ALWAYS represent the common, hard-hunting man in...

LAST EDITED ON Feb-23-12 AT 06:07PM (MST)[p]Hornkiller, We haven't run any governor's tag stories. We don't have a questionnaire for them to fill out, so I couldn't say if any of them were a raffle winner, OTC, limited entry draw, etc. I don't have a problem with raffle tag winners in any...

LAST EDITED ON Feb-23-12 AT 06:11PM (MST)[p]Zim, Again, I fully believe in the N.A. Model, and share most if not all of your values. I hope that you'll take a look at the mag and see that this magazine will not disappoint. Thanks for your time. To your edit: I too believe that actions speak...
