Those are some great late season bulls! Well done.

Looks like it might be a legal spike. Couldn’t tell if there was a point above the ear when he turned. If you’re going to shoot a bull like that you better be damn sure there isn’t even a little cheater point above the ear.

Very cool looking bull. Congrats!!

I’d say 330, might just push beyond that. He’s a pretty bull.

2 is right at 320” 3 is at 330-340”

Those are both under 300” but if you got kids with you I’d shoot. if no kids with you then keep hunting.

By state law it’s whoever kills it and puts it down.

Go get a Winchester Model 70. They are right in line with you budget and all of them shoot well.

Wouldn’t it be funny to find out hoss and tri are really just two buddies who set these b!-(/ fests up with each other? I swear every time I get in this site there’s some dumb post by hossblr then some dumb reply by tristate. And then all the same bad actors jump on board. Founder you need...

By the way I would take the 300 Win. I love mine and have killed everything from bunnies to bears with it.

I’ve never heard of a “witch” rifle!! Where can I find one? Does it shoot black cats??

Nice cat!!

I don’t think they should allow tags to be returned except for medical challenges. If you put in for 8 tags around the world and draw them all, well you get to choose which are most important to you.

I’m with Tikka. This update is great!! Nice work Fohnder!

Sweet!!

I've had a JetBoil Flash camp stove for about a decade. It's about $100 on Amazon. The pot size is 1 liter so a little smaller then you want. Or it looks like Camp Chef has completely knocked off the design with a 1.3 liter pot. And it's closer to $70. I'm in the market too because my...

As many have already said you could do a black bear hunt in Alaska. You could put in for Ketchikan or Prince of Wales bear hunt. Then you would be able to fish for King Salmon out in the ocean at the same time. PM me if you want more info. Deadline for the bear draw is the 16th though.

Hey founder! I really like this site and wouldn't change anything major. Only item I want to change is that you need to add a ?like? capability for peoples comments! I read a ton of stuff that makes me laugh but it isn't worth a whole new post. Just my $.02 which is probably worth about...

When does this happen? All the time, meaning hot weather, cold weather, rain etc. I know of guns having troubles like this because of different cleaning solvents used. WD40 for example becomes really thick in cold weather. Hoppes used to have a powder solvent that became sticky in really hot...

In response to muledeer?s question about why involve the island deer with no pressure. It could give you a good baseline as to how much, or how little, a deer population and individual deer move with no real human pressure. And particularly no real hunting pressure. Seems like a good idea to...

Freaknasty I'm glad to see your last post about being sorry for the initial tone. My original thinking was ?who needs enemies when they have a friend like this!? You are right though, at times you get looking at horns and really you should just shoot. Hesitation has cost me more than one...

Do a euro mount and use a deadon display to show it. Check out their site.

Shoot the gun and load you know.

You should continue to put in for tags and mentor them to your grand kids if you have any. I am convinced the only way we will keep the upcoming generation interested in big game hunting is if we give them the opportunity to hunt by passing on a tag. Just my thoughts on the matter.

So SAAMI stands for Sporting Arms and Ammunition Institute. In the early 1900s modern gunpowder was replacing black powder in cartridges and nobody had a standard for safety in ammunition loading and ballistics. Basically SAAMI was created after an act of congress passed to say we need guns to...

Would love to see some pictures of him in the field. Have any that show the battle scars?

Cool footage!!

You sure you aren't thinking 35 years ago? 25 years ago would be 1994. I remember hunting in the mid nineties and I definitely see more deer now then I ever did in the nineties. Now the 80?s I wasn?t around to hunt but I do hear stories, and I've seen the pictures and there seem to be more...

I thought the same thing. This just makes me sick!!

Bucks and ducks is the one who asked the question if anyone thinks they shot him. While I do agree with you that he could just keep the head, and to be honest I probably would given the age. But he asked if anyone else ?needs closure? on a bull they might have shot.

I had an archery tag about 4 years ago. Did not shoot at that bull, but it looks similar to one I chased them he disappeared from the canyon I was in. Seems someone else hit him.

LAST EDITED ON Oct-15-19 AT 10:54AM (MST)[p]So did the right guy/gal get in touch with you and claim the bull? I could care less about the whiny b!?ches that say you shouldn't help find the hunter who pulled the trigger. You are totally doing the right thing in trying to help.

With elk you can do anything you would do with beef. Elk is just like a really lean grass fed beef in my opinion. So basically the sky?s the limit.

Don?t know why you would spend all kinds of money on a custom gun for 500-600 yards. Go to Cabelas and grab a Winchester model 70 and work up some good hand loads and you're done. Just me .02

Had a similar experience to yours a number of years ago with a cow elk. My brother shot her and we both saw her drop. Then couldn't find her after searching for 2+ hours. Went back to the car to meet up with my older brother and dad. Decided to circle back around to that basin with the truck...

I guess you don't have the rifle to run this test now. But the ammo that is sticking, you could color the slug black with a sharpie then cycle the round in and out of the action. (Don?t shoot the round) Examine the colored slug and see if the bullet is coming in contact with your riflings. That...

That's an amazing group! Hope it was just a fluke that the case got stuck. Reloading doesn't take too much time. Plus once you get the right load for a particular rifle you just load up a couple hundred and you're good to go for a very long time. My 300 Win shoots not quite that good. But...

I say sell the gun and just go buy a Winchester Model 70. I am really entertained by all the money people are throwing down for custom and semi custom guns. I have 4 rifles straight out of the factory box that shoot sub MOA out to 300 yards. They are a Remington, Winchester, Ruger and Savage...

https://money.cnn.com/2018/03/25/news/companies/remington-bankruptcy/index.html Remington is in bankruptcy. Sure this has a lot to do with what you are talking about. That said I bought a new 870 shotgun and have been impressed with the overall quality. Seems much better than ones I bought...

Did you put in? If you see a fall hunt let me Know. I drew that tag and would be happy to help you. I was a fishing guide there for 4 summers. Know of a few areas we could get you into with a wheel chair.
