now only a couple more million to keep him alive for the next 20 years before spending 600K on a drug to kill him when he's 80.

Yeah it’d be near impossible to have both in your pack. Those scalpel blades will really weigh you down. :rolleyes: I wonder if the first guy to see a Phillips head screw driver was all “ this disrespects my ancestors!!! Flat head screws only!!!”

this is the worst part. it actually really pisses me off when i see it, usually accompanied by a pair of blue gloves pigs leave on the mountain. i have a little plastic drill bit case i keep in my pack for the replacement blades. all the old ones go in there and come off the mountain with me...

it's a scalpel, literally. doesn't get sharper than that and you can have 20 replacements in your pack if you want that basically take up the same room as a credit card. take apart an entire elk with your little 2" blade that being said i also carry my grandfather's knife on every hunt. it...

This. I love the old timer pics of 5 huge bucks laying across the hood of a 1932 ford as much as the next guy but fact is, there was no seasons, no people in the west and you could walk out on the winter range any given day and shoot a giant. There’s a reason those guys weren’t scoring bucks and...

that's about as close to what i would consider a perfect buck as it gets. man that things cool

Kinda like I eluded to earlier in this thread. My guess is the “greatest mule deer hunter ever” whoever he was, has probably been dead for a couple hundred years and may well have hunted bare foot or bare back or both. Question here really, is who are you the biggest fanboy of

Im More of an all you can eat sushi guy

Yeah, in large, but it’s still possible. Article attached here says 7 cases nation wide last year. That’s not very many. Eat some bear burgers. Their awesome

A lot. And yup there’s a lot of trim and waste. I grind 90% of the bear and mix it with a heavy ratio of bacon ends. Makes the best sausage gravy ever. Bears have a lot of fat. But like any wild game they carry it outside the muscle unlike domesticated farm animals we’ve breed to have marbling...

It’s always easy to tell the guys that don’t process their own meat. If your eating wild game with fat on it your doing it wrong

Saw some bucks today that are going to be smokers this fall. Blew me away how much growth two of them had before June. Made me want to change my app for controlled hunts this year

If you guys get upset enough to dump the NF scopes you own at half price let me know. That’ll stick it to um!!
