Anyone have any suggestions as far as using a phonescope universal adaptor? I have one I am trying to use with a Samsung phone that isn’t a popular model, so no adaptor is available for my specific phone. I’m using it on my 20-60x80 Swarovski spotter. I’m having a terrible time getting the...

Just want to give a great review on Asolo boots. I’ve seen some others on here recommend them so I thought I’d try a pair. I purchased my first pair about a year and a half ago and wore them on a ten day deer hunt and also to work every day and they’re still going. For me they have lasted better...

Can a spotting scope handle the 36,000 feet elevation flying commercial airlines? I’m assuming so, but don’t want to fly and have it ruin the scope because of the altitude pressure.

Anyone else hear that Bank of America is refusing loans to AR type manufacturers now.

I replied twice to your inquiry, but I can't tell if either of them went through. Hope they did.

Wondering if anyone here hunts or has hunted South Dakota for mule deer or whitetail deer? We've been building a few points on the west side of the state and had a lead on where to go that has vanished. I will give their fish and game a call, but was also hoping someone here could give me some...

Well the general season is over. We've hunted Cody area most of the past 20 years. But not the past couple. It sounded like it was looking great weather wise, but then tanked. I hated hunting there when it was dry and in the 60's. But you never know. So anyone care to let us know how the hunting...

We have a fire starting to pick up steam. It's located just West of Susanville by Willard Hill. Started before noon and latest is it's up to 1000 acres already. They are evacuating parts of Gold Run road and Susan Hills area. Heard we also have one up on Shinn Mt. out in X5B. That poor mt. has...

Anyone hear about a new program to get more new hunters. I was told that CA. Is adopting New hunter family tags. The way is was explained to me was, that a new hunter could apply for any zone and any family members could put in with them. And here's the thing I'm not to fond of, they would get...

How was the deer hunting around Cody this year? We have been hunting there for about 15 years, but last year was so bad we decided to go somewhere else. Every year we would see quite a few bucks in the 18-20" range, but the last couple of years we weren't seeing them. One of our honey holes went...

Sent my badlands bino harness in for some warranty work as one of the back straps was coming apart. I couldn't believe the quick turn around. Only about a week and and a half, AND they sent me a new harness. Awesome warranty service and I absolutely love it.

Was a pretty tough opener for the B zone this year where we were. We hunted the Yolla Bolly wilderness and deer were very scarce. Went home empty this time. Anyone else find anything?

OK. I've read on here about different strange events happening in the wilds, but never had anything happen to me... Before a couple of weekends ago. My brother and I went for a little backpacking fishing trip into the Warner Mtns. In NE California. The first evening was uneventful with a few...

Sent my spotting scope eyepiece in to Swarovski a few weeks ago and just got it back. I bought it used and after a few months I noticed the eyepiece had some spots on the inside. I didn't know what to expect about price, because some have said it costs to have repairs done if your not the...

I was talking with one of the big dogs of the Lassen sportsmen club the other day and he told me someone in the CDFW was proposing to erase X1-X6 and make them all one big X zone. Said they didn't have the biologists to keep an eye on all the individual zones. That makes no sense because you...

How many of you have passed kidney stones. I've passed three in about the past ten years and I feel one coming on right now. It's the worst pain I have EVER felt. The first couple had me rolled up in a fetal position on the floor until I got some serious pain Meds in me. I'm waiting with dred...

My son is living in Greeley and is currently working through the Mountain States Apprentice Lineman program. He won't be able to hunt much these years, but did buy a cow elk tag for Jackson county. Problem is he needs help from someone to send him in the right direction. He went scouting this...

My dad (79) killed a California blacktail a couple of weeks ago which had absolutely zero fat on him. So I was wondering if it's because of the drought or is that normal for mid Sept. and they start putting it on later in Oct. What ya think?

Well after reading on here about the Adin hamburger joint, we decided to take a drive up there Saturday to get a good burger. Got there and it was closed for the weekend! I've been there before about 25 years ago and was really looking forward to it. Oh well, on the bright side we stopped at the...

Just heard today that fish and wildlife is being asked to make coyotes a game animal and to sell tags to legally hunt them. Also the laws on lion control has changed. Before if a lion was hanging out in a habited neiborhood it could be killed for the health and welfare of the residents. Not...

LAST EDITED ON Sep-13-12 AT 04:55PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Sep-13-12 AT 04:55?PM (MST) I've heard that F&G has offered X5B rifle deer tag holders the option to turn their tags back in for full points. They said that 30% of the zone burned in the Rush fire. For those with a tag like me,let me...

Our family cabin along with a few others were broken into sometime within the last month and a half. It's located up past Antelope lake near Susanville Ca. Very remote, we usually go up on snowmobiles once every winter. This year there's no snow so we drove up and found someone had broken in and...

Some jerk hacked into our e-mail account and sent everyone in our address book an e-mail saying we took a trip to Europe and were robbed while in London and please send $1200.00 so we could get home. These people have no originality. But it still ticks me off.

Anyone have a problem with their feet getting hot in the summer. I mean torture hot. I've tried different socks and nothing works. Any suggestions on a good quality boot that isn't an oven in the summer?

HELP! Tag exchanging options? My brother wanted to get a leftover region F deer tag and ended up purchasing a region J tag. Anyone know if he has any chance of exchanging it?

Sorry if this has been posted already, but in our local paper there's an article from a former Ca. game warden who said the DFG is recommending abolishing all refuges in California. Has anyone heard anything about this? It says they recommended this a couple years ago and the Legislators passed...

What's with the new regulation that you can't get a refund if you put in for the premium hunt drawing for deer and don't get drawn. You used to be able to get your tag purchase price back- less some application fee. Now they keep it all. What a JOKE CALI is getting to be. If I was 25 years...

Anybody find a license agent selling tags and licenses yet? The local walmart here in Susanville doesn't have any yet. They were supposed to be here a week ago. Whats going on?

Everything I hear lately has not been good news for our deer. Sageadvice has talked about the lions,Calielkslayer has told us there are basically no deer left in X5B. And the other day I talked to a rancher here in the honey lake valley that told me he has about 40 doe's on his ranch which had...

How was the deer hunting this year? Any rebound to the heard or is it still to early from the bad winter a couple of years ago?

What happened to my computer. All the forums are no longer in order by the date they were posted or replied too. Now I see anything from July 09 to Dec. 07 and everything in between. Is it my computer or is it MM?

The nonresident regulations say points are only applied to an aplicants first choice.So do your points still count and give you a better chance for your second or third choices. I read on here a couple of years ago that people were mad because hunters were putting in for premium hunts,not...

I have a question for someone that knows how the Wyoming draw system works. We put in as a party for region R general deer with one person having a pref. point, But we didn't get drawn. According to the draw statistics,it looks like 48 tags went to those who had less than 1 point. So shouldn't...
