My oldest boy drew his first tag ever! It's a youth tag (based on the charge) and we're very much looking forward to the opportunity.

2,800 for the 7mm-08

Just some constructive criticism. I took a day off work so I could help on a MDF project for dedicated hours. I guess the turn out was so big that instead of getting the 8 hours I was told to anticipate, I only got just over 4. Not blaming anyone or saying they are all like that. The project...

My point is this....many bag on the state of CA and all their great rulings. Fact is that every ruling came to be with some sort of grumbling. And everyone will always have something to grumble about. I work in the medical field, specifically pharmacy. Talk about a lot of red tape. All the...

Ironic isn't it. For those that didn't forsee the slippery slope, they deserve everything that's about to come down the pipeline. Gone are the days of simply going out and enjoying the outdoors. Now you need to take a course on the proper way of pooping in the woods.

Vehicle collisions are certainly one of the top issues affecting wildlife.

Appreciate everyone's input. You've been more than helpful!

My two boys (will be 11 and 12 this year) have completed hunters safety in our state. I'm looking into applying them for big game hunts, which it looks like AZ has youth only opportunities. The youth only elk tags are for cow elk, correct? If drawn, do these provide decent opportunity on public...

Sure after May 1, but the trip I had planned in March with my 10 year old won't be happening. Like I said my statement had some overreaction in it. But the point remains, we're seeing opportunities lost right before our eyes!

If shed hunting was the only thing going on in these winter range areas that would be different. Have these closures made a difference for the animals in comparison to states without them? 🤷‍♂️

All I see are opportunities lost to spend wholesome times outdoors with my kids. Can't draw tags, can't use trail cameras, and now can't go shed hunting. I get this is somewhat of an overreaction; but IMO so is the banning and closures. It surprises me that we have become more and more ok over...

Irrelated to some degree with the expo, but at the same time it's not. A few years ago I participated on a hunt at a CWMU. As we were asking various questions with the operator it was somehow brought up that a number of clients would try and fly in their "girlfriends" for the weekend. The...

Custom build 7mm-08 by Lee Christiansen out of WI. Spiral fluting of barrel and all cerakote done by Karl Kampfeld. Rifle has mostly been a safe queen. Has some brass rash on the cerakote and safe marks on bolt knob. Otherwise in what I would call great condition. It has less than 200 rounds of...

I think we argue too much over weapon type. The archery vs ALW vs muzzleloader crowds. The reality is, is that we are all hunters. We have supply vs demand issues when it comes to hunting. We as hunters have choices which weapons we want to use to try and hunt. What we're finding out is the...

Early rifle, 360", age 7 Archery, 335", age 12 Late rifle, 310", age 5 Early rifle, 320", age 6 These bulls all come from a unit with a current age obj of 5.5 to 6.

Certainly very versatile. I used it with a native and a pocket or two. It's got good vibes with it. Couple from last season.

I started my hunting adventures with my dad's 30-30 and took a couple of deer. I then got my very first gun, 270, and harvested a couple more bucks. In more recent years I've harvested deer with a 6.5 CM, 7mm-08, 300 WSM, 50 cal muzzleloader.

Happy New Years bump

He was definitely a healthy one! Ain't that the truth. We spent a few days contemplating getting a tag.

Decided I would go ahead and share. Had a fun year in CO chasing mule deer. Due to work we weren't able to hunt until halfway through the season. We ran into lots of elk, and a few nice bucks. As a storm rolled in we decided to watch some deer that were hovering the private/public borders. We...

Muzzy would certainly be a hunt I would look at. Some units, such as Fishlake, have hardly had any deer permits handed out the past couple of years. You could almost have the whole mountain to yourself.

Back in 2004; my brother, dad, and myself each had tags (although my dad's had already been filled). I got split up from both of them only to hear gunshots shortly after. They indicated big buck which they had missed and that it went up this draw. I hustled up the draw and saw the back end of a...

Updated pics with inserts. $200 shipped

Ha, no more pets please John! We have a couple of dogs, not allowed inside though 😁

Just the bag. No frame.

👍, it's an awesome pack and real versatile as you know. I got the straight jacket last year and am now deciding it's time to let someone else enjoy this.

Let's try 215 shipped

I've packed lots of animals out with this. Does have some blood stain from last season. Otherwise good condition. Pet free and smoke free home. I do have the inserts (not pictured). Forgot to grab them from the closet. Located in Central UT $235 shipped conus

Hope you are able to turn them up. I know the disbelief and pit of losing something. Got to experience it twice this year, trailer ramps in UT and atlas bipod in CO.
