    Access question

    I wouldn’t give up. Might suggest getting the contact information for one of the field folks in your area. I obtained cell numbers for a D16 DFG field guy and also a BLM guy. I’ve reached out to both of them over the years, usually about access issues. The DFG guy has always been very helpful...

    Red Tail Fox on the Hunt

    We get a fair amount of wildlife that comes through our property. Couple of days ago, this red tail fox came in to successfully hunt a vole (mouse like rodent that burrows in the snow in the winter). We’ve only got 6-12” of snow left so now easy hunting for the fox. While the coyotes mimic this...

    Thanks for the input. I've seen a couple of great reviews on the Garmin and leaning towards picking one up.

    Woman recovering after being mauled by cougar

    Yet another recurring reason to always carry heat. I always pack my 10mm in my chest holster out hunting, hiking, fishing, mtn biking, etc. Never know when a you’ll have to defend yourself from a bear, lion, wolf, cow moose w/calves…or tweaker. Woman recovering after being mauled by cougar...

    Descanso Hogs/Mule Deer scouting

    I really miss those wild hog days in the San Diego backcountry. Was a great couple of years. Found them in several different areas of the county. They drove me and a couple of buddies nuts!

    First Bird Dog, Maverick VonBirdfindr

    HunterMcBuckKiller - Second NBK's recommendation. NAVHDA is a great volunteer training group and the San Diego chapter in particular is very strong. Very experienced folks willing to help those new to training a gun dog.

    Notice from Fiat

    Interestingly, California’s CARB previously granted exemptions for owners during times of renewals for emission items like this. But they want diesels off the roads so doubt exemptions will be allowed. Keep us posted. There are almost 1 million trucks under this recall. What a cluster puck.

    Concealed Carry Hand Gun

    A .38 revolver is a great reliable setup, can’t go wrong with that. Had a 357 revolver for many years as a sidearm. A semi in a 9mm platform is widely viewed as the answer for most. 9mm ammo has advanced so much ballistically over the years, is widely available in varying specs, generally...

    1/1/24 report

    Went out with a buddy this morning on a 2 hr “hike” with the hopes of getting a good start for 2024. Bumped a nice covey of quail but not able to get a shot off. Didn’t have a dog with us this time so more challenging. Good weather. Happy New Year everyone.

    Hunting dogs

    My grandfather took me hunting and fishing as a kid. He had a family German Shepard that tagged along with us and along with his well trained Brittnay and Springer dogs. The GS never really “got” hunting any of the bird varieties but for whatever reason did occasionally ok on pheasants. GS are...

    In the words of Phil Robertson, "happy happy happy." Good times for the youngsters.

    No luck in Idaho

    The weather has turned for sure. We got another 1-2 inches of snow early this morning along with cow elk that have been coming through our property every couple of days for the last 2 weeks. No bulls yet. Good luck on your outing.

    E-Collars

    Back in the day was a tri tronics user but then Garmin acquired them. Have been in the Garmin Alpha series and it is outstanding for a long time. I almost lost a dog late in the day in the winter on a snowy day in the canyons many years ago. Then I got smart and adopted GPS and other current...
