    Guided elk hunt help for father and son

    I've got a couple possibilities that "might" be able to work us in for 2025. It just feels extra important for it to go well since it will be my youngest sons first big trip. Thank you everyone for the input!

    Guided elk hunt help for father and son

    Do you have any recommendations for Colorado or Oregon guides? I am going back and forth on Wyoming. It might be using more points than needed, but if it was for a quality hunt with my son it might be a once in a lifetime hunt if that makes sense. Thanks for the help

    Guided elk hunt help for father and son

    Sorry, guess that would help. Would like to keep it to 18K or under for both of us. Not looking for high fenced and a good quality hunt over fancy meals or lodging. Would like to take him on a hunt when he is my age he can remember if that makes sense. Thank you

    RE: When hunt with Randy Newberg In a heart beat! Shook his hand and talked to him at the back country hunter and angler rendezvous earlier this year in Boise. He came a crossed as knowledgeable, approachable and very humble. I think he is the best ambassador of the sport we have. As far...

    Northern California Deer or Pig Ranch Lease

    You may want to check with Nick at Golden Ram. Pretty sure he facilitates small group leases too separate from "the club". Just a thought, good luck

    Binocular tripod adapter

    I just bought the bog pod version and it is nice enough. I have Leica Geovids HD-R so using a post is out. I think they can work with 15X56 binoculars as well and about half the price as the other options

    Thank you. I thought I would be ok but was concerned since other people will have points invested too. I will certainly be happy to share with the friendly people I meet in the field and hope they will do the same.

    LAST EDITED ON Jun-12-18 AT 02:08PM (MST)[p]So I have drawn an early rifle Nevada bull elk tag for 62, 64, 66-68 and want to make several scouting trips to the area.

    151-156 Early Mule Deer Rifle

    I hunted the same hunt in 13 and it took us a few days to find deer. Our second day in the area I shot a fork that had been shot in the jaw earlier in the day. We only saw 1 really good buck and someone else shot a decent four point there. I will pm you the coordinates early next week. They are...

    Nv 62, 64, 66-68 early rifle bull

    Nv 62, 64, 66-68 early rifle bull

    Does anyone have experience with the area and willing to help? I plan. to get in several scouting trips before the season starts. I would prefer DIY, but would also consider a guide since i most likely will not draw the tag again in my life. I will try to contact the local wardens and biologist...

    Wyoming outfitter recommendations

    I hunted mule deer with Triple Three Ranch years ago when Craig was still here. Phil, the current owner, was my guide and I had a spectacular time.

    I bought a 25 cal Benjamin Marauder. Great trigger a very accurate. It sucks worse than you think it will to pump up. It is fairly loud. Both of my boys head shot turkeys with it this past spring and squirrels within 70 yds or so are in trouble

    Christensen Arms Mesa rifle review

    I just purchased one in 7 mm Rem Mag. The first group after a 10 rnd break in was a disappointing 1.5" group with Barnes LRX. The next two loads (barnes TSX and some old trophy bonded bear claws) shot very well. Just got back from my first hunt with it and it carried and handled very well

    Leica customer service gets 0 out of 5 stars

    I bought a new pair of Leica Geovid HD-R binoculars at the end of January 2017. Do to work and life schedule I did not have a chance to use them in the field until May 3 on my sons first archery pig hunt. On the one good opportunity we had the binoculars would not range and neither of us felt...

    Toxic broad heads?

    Don't do it! I shot a small wild pig (150 ish lbs) and hit it a bit far back. My buddy shot a follow up shot at a hard quartering away angle (toxic broad head) and all of the blades fell out or broke off inside the hog. The next day he shot one and it looked like a great hit with a lot of...

    Sako A7 Roughtech

    I have an A7 Tecomate in 270 wsm and it has been a great rifle so far. It will usually shoot 0.5? groups with factory Barnes TSX. I replaced the bolt shroud with one off of a model 85. The clip is very unimpressive. Hope you find one that meets your wants
