    Idaho OTC hunt

    Any unit can produce a representative mature buck. Look at the southeast if you are looking for large racks. Units 78 and 76. Units 45, 48 and 36 for general tag mature bucks but you will need to hunt hard. Unit 27 is wilderness so foot or horseback with generally smaller racks but mature...

    MORE BS NEWS???

    What amazes me is the inability to identify peaceful protesters and not separate them from looters and arsonists. POTUS does not call them out but lumps them 'cause it suits his agenda of lying, deception, and whining about the media reporting his own words and actions stating he is a victim of...

    Voting for Trump in November? Let's hear it.

    There is no way most folks would allow a person with Trumps personality in their hunting camp. A liar, cheater, full of bluster but no substance, manchild name calling, lack of complete sentences, all his staff in jail or should be, trusting in magic and ostrich mannerisms to deal with Corona...

    Newfoundland moose hunt at 70

    As above, the Argos will go through the bogs, flooded grasses, and muddy terrain. They are the ultimate Newfie transporter. They will go across a lake slowly but no problem. They are equipped with winch so as to offer an assist if needed.

    Newfoundland moose hunt at 70

    We used Argos to get around then walked to lookouts and glassed. Awesome machine those Argos. They can go nearly everywhere. Walking in the bogs and tuckamores wore on me but we saw so much game that it never got old. We just caught the beginning of the rut as they were not talking until the...

    Newfoundland moose hunt at 70

    I don't know about 2020 bookings. They do have repeating clients. The hunt was a once in a lifetime/bucket list experience. RMD well spent.

    Newfoundland moose hunt at 70

    It was so fun! Lots of game, wild country, awesome people and great accommodations. One day of rain but we still saw game. Bring tall rubber boots as most steps are soggy. Saw bigger bulls but it just didn't work out. Saw smaller bulls and passed. Caribou as well.

    300wsm vs 300 wm vs 7mm

    As a Wisconsin guy who moved to Idaho, I went with a 300 WSM and elk don't like it. Killed a variety of bulls including three 6X6 and only one required a follow-up shot. It is in a model 70 classic featherweight. My favorite rifle...............

    300 WSM for elk?

    If you decide to go 300 WSM it is excellent elk medicine. Use a well constructed bullet like a 180 grain Nosler partition and know your gun and your capabilities and the elk will die.

    Largest mule deer study in state

    LAST EDITED ON Jun-18-15 AT 06:18PM (MST)[p]Studies and science with their nuances are still the more likely to answer questions and lead to solutions. It surely will be more credible than a number of folks who fancy themselves as wildlife biologists because they killed a couple of deer and/or...

    New rifle options

    Got a .300WSM in 2002 in a model 70 classic featherweight and it my favorite rifle for critters. One shot kills on bull elk and bucks of both species. Potent but relatively gentle on the shoulder would be my call.

    257 Roberts is a fine choice. 117gr or 120gr will work well and fun to shoot as well.

    Rifle or Archery?

    Both hunts are thrilling and challenging in their own way. Archery the bulls are looking for you (if you're calling) or water. Rifle you are looking for them and they're not as vocal and may be fuzzed up by others. Either way it's huntin' for a bull elk!
